Short: Formula One Grand Prix / WC Editor V3.11 Author: O.J.C.Roberts@essex.ac.uk (Oliver Roberts) Uploader: O.J.C.Roberts@essex.ac.uk (Oliver Roberts) Version: 3.11 Type: game/misc Action: NoStart Autobooting disk ("plug in and go") also available: http://cswww2.essex.ac.uk/users/robeoy/F1GP-Ed/F1GP-Ed.dms TITLE F1GP-Ed VERSION 3.11 AUTHOR Oliver Roberts E-Mail: O.J.C.Roberts@essex.ac.uk WWW: http://cswww2.essex.ac.uk/users/robeoy/ Address: 30 Tillett Road Norwich Norfolk NR3 4BJ ENGLAND DESCRIPTION An editor for use with the Formula One Grand Prix or World Circuit game (published by MicroProse Software). It is very easy to use, with a standard 2.0 look graphical user interface (even on KS 1.x!) and on-line help should you need it. Allows you to alter most of the in-game setup, including computer car performance, car/helmet/pitcrew colours, car fragility and many other things (and I MEAN many!). Sound samples can also be replaced, cockpit graphics changed, and lap records and setups printed. Changes can be saved directly to a copy of the game which is running in memory, or to the main file used by the game for a more permanent change. Also incorporated in the main program are a number of memory patches, including Toni Wilen's GPPatch and Grant Reeve's PatchF1GP. F1GP-Ed breathes new life into an ageing, but excellent game. 1994 and 1995 example datafiles supplied for those who don't want to mess about. The program itself is auto-enhancing, which means that it will run on a basic A500 with KS 1.2, but will make use of KS 2.x or KS 3.x specific routines on suitable machines to make itself even better. NEW FEATURES Minor update. Steering help in reverse gear can now be removed. Added QUIT cli option / tooltype and "Patch after loading" settings menu option. Also improved Ctrl-C handling. Previous versions corrupted the World Circuit (version B) binary a little bit (nothing too serious), but this has been fixed and the "Level Name" is now saved properly. SPECIAL REQUIREMENTS Formula One Grand Prix or World Circuit commercial game published by MicroProse Software. Approximately 1.5Mb of free ram needed to load the game and the editor to be able to use the memory patches. But, the editor itself will work on machines with less memory.
