I can share with you a new version of the 2018 mod: gpmo.eu/gpw/Grand%20Prix%20World%202018.zipI did a few bugfixes. A nasty crash was fixed, and some things like wrong ages etc. There are still a few things iam not able to update, like car painting because i fail in painting.... or the costs of the enginge contracts. mercedes still pays for the workscontract in the first season because i cant use the lexxeditor. the game crashs after it because veedubs editor changes alot in the .exe and the lexxeditor cant handle that. the game just crashes at startup if i do it. also i had not enough countries left, so i had to make giovinazzo a spanish driver. but i think this are very little wrong things and this is now a good and playable mod. hope you enjoy! Iam the original 2018 mod creator, i also updated the 2016 mod back at the gpracegames days. hope we find a new home here. btw, has anybody seen veedub? i need this nasty little lovely bastard^^ hes the brain, the technical god. iam only the fan who uses his brilliant stuff. Greetings guys! |

Yeah they are (it's the Minardi starting drivers). Guess no one else is seeing this then? Odd! I'll play as Jordan for now  Did you ever resolve this issue? I swapped to the gpw_other.exe included as part of Jops uploaded gpw folder and had the same issue. Gonna try swapping .exe again... |

I have recently moved across to the 1994 patch (which works bloody great btw) and I have put together a spreadsheet of all the driver stats as of the start of 1994 for those completeness geeks like me. 1994 Driver Stats_GPW.xlsx (13.49 KB) It had to be done because the news of Senna's 1st win just annoyed me far too much  ! |

It had to be done because the news of Senna's 1st win just annoyed me far too much ! Yeah i edited all stats to 0 because the stats was still on 1998. So, wrong. I changed them to 0 so you would see the stats from the game beginning. THX for posting this! |

I am using GPW Edit to great effect and now changing all my MODS so they are accurate! Only one question, as I cannot find it in the program at all - how do you change the game start year? So that if I am loading 1996 MOD, it says 1996 in first year and not 1998? Thanks! |

To change the start year, you need the lexxeditor. But be careful with it, you cant change the Driverstats anymore. Thery are messed up. If you do, the game will crash at startup. To change Driver stats, use the GPWedit. Only use the Lexxeditor for the start year and the engine contracts. After the year is changed, it also has to be changed in the text file. I would use Veedubs editor for this, too. You can search the wrong year there and replace it.

Hello everyone, I have moved some posts into their own separate topic as it makes it easier for other people to see your post as they might have the same question/problem as you. Please can everyone make a new topic if it hasn't been made already, Thank you.

Hi everyone
Does anyone have car designs post the 2016 season?
I've updated the 2018 mod, fixed speech issue, added Italian, Canadian and Monégasque nationalities (at the expense of Brazilian, USA and Swedish).
Added Albon and Latifi as none F1 drivers.
Corrected Toro Rosso car design (was set as Haas).
I've used a 2009 Car design for Sauber to get a Red/White colour livery.
I really want to update McLaren (Orange), Renault (Black/Yellow, Force India (Pink)
But I have no experience with producing these designs using paint programs.

I managed to do it but think it was as you say, combination off Lexx edit and veedubs. Did all the work in Veedubs and his text editor, and just used Lexx to change start year, all worked. |

Hey mhei233! For sure we can! First, you need to replace the name. The easiest way is to do it with the program "gpw edit". You can download it from here: 62.75.211.27/gpw/GpwEdit_1_0_0_0.zipAnother way is to open the "english.txt" or "german.txt" or whatever language you use in GPW. Search for the name, and just replace it. Now, you need to replace the driver image. In your GPW directory go to /bmp/dheads there you can find all driver images. Make sure, that the new image has the correct format (should be .bmp) and the right size. Now if you start your game you should have the correct drivername and picture. If you now want to change the age, the skill, salery and other things of your driver, you need the gpwedit tool. Its a very powerfull GPW editor. It is very easy to use. If you have questions about that, just ask us! |

Paint, that comes with windows, is enough. load a image from GPW, take the color from the green background, and then load your new photo into paint. adjust it to the correct size, and then just paint the areas you need in the special green color.
you need the EXACT green color that the games use. another green would just make it - green. ^^
so you need to take the original GPW green

sounds like you did it wrong. make sure that your .bmp file has the correct bit! i think it was 24bit color?! make sure you get the correct one. 16,24 and 32 bit color are possible as far is i know but only 1 is the correct for GPW. i made the same mistake the first time ;-)
