GPL fanatic here, Is there a 67 F1 Mod thats good ?

[bsmooth]

I've seen a couple but are they legit, and do they give that some knife edge feeling GPL had, and the great sounds ?

I haven't had a whole lot of time to drive them but just on the models alone it is far from perfect. The new higher res models have no LODs and there are obvious errors on many of them.

They are going to work on adding lods

They are so different to drive. I was comparing a few last night trying them out at the old Monza without the banking going in to the first turn.
The lotus 49 is so light and changes direction so easily, first turn was just a light touch on the brakes and the turn in was very predictable. Then I went to the BRM(why don't we ever see the P261?) and that was quite a surprise the first time I tried it. Went in to the first turn , lightly applied the brakes and the car went straight on into the wall !..
The thing I cannot get used to is how twitchy some cars are, the back end seems to constantly dance back and forth, not sure what causes it, maybe front or rear toe ?

To reduce that knife-edged feeling, I move both front and rear toe as close as I can get to 0 or +1 degrees. They all turn in so quickly I don't think they are hurt by this toe adjustment. Sure seems better to me on all these cars.

That's what I like about them, they are all different.
I found the Eagle to be the twitchiest, it felt like it had a 4:1 steering ratio on turn in. Like Tbear said I dialed out a bunch of front and rear toe and it helped.

Try doing a couple races with VRC Formula NA 1999 and then switch to the GP Legends BRM.....come on giddy up go, OH no whoa WHOA, turn argh TURN!
1:02s for Formula NA and 1:20s for the BRM at Kyalami.

KO

For a gpl' lover these cars, with all driving aids off, are best sim driving experience of the latest 10 years

Fun and precariousness everywhere!

Thanks!

Can anyone help with a link to a download?

Is it torrent or just a normal one, do you have to pay?

Thanks for that.

Query regarding the 312 move of data, I do not have the 70th pack. What exactly is the mod missing, sound? Can you use the 312 from the game too?

 

[Fat-Alfie]

As far as I understand, the pack uses the Kunos 3D models (.kn5 files) for the Lotus 49 and Ferrari 312/67

 

[bsmooth]

Great mod again(can't say it enough), was there ever an East London SA track? I happened to be watching some old F1 films and it was mentioned.

And the Lotus 33 but they edited the wheels.

Yes, but the model is included in the download, whereas the Ferrari 312 and Lotus 49 are not. Matra is stolen from rF2.

 

[Fat-Alfie]

So narrow! It's another track that I have (briefly) considered making for AC. Prince George Circuit was only used until 1965, I think.

Kunos' Lotus 25?

too narrow

 

[garyjpaterson]

Kunos' Lotus 25?

Yup

 

[manu68]

I just want to judge the mod .
I have no idea if the models are legit or not, etc..

As a GPL lover, i must say that i had a great fun testing all the cars. All of them.
They have a different handling as the original, but are also very interesting to drive.
Of course, some experience on the original game is an advantage, because these cars are monsters.
It is fantastic to have these cars in a modern similation, but the graphics in gpl have something i really will love forever.
I would love to have all the 1967 tracks in assetto corsa.

here you can find a bad conversion: https://www.racedepartment.com/downloads/east-london-south-africa.13942/history

p.s. i agree, too narrow track

 

[386]

Yup

Yeah they mention it on the website but the mod is still quite good
