I don't really play it these days, but I should still have it somewhere. I'll try and dig it out as you've now got me intrigued to see how it runs on my current hardware.

Unfortunately I haven't been able to find my disc yet. What sort of shots are you after?

RSC has a sub-section for Geoff Crammond's games, including GP2, 3 and 4. Have you tried searching there for any decent screenshots?

funny you should mention this - i was moving house a while back, found it in an old box of packed up stuff and got excited when the lightbulb went on in my head that i would install it and play it for old times sake on my spec'd up graphics machine here at work on xp (not like the old times on my old uni P2 clunkbox), but only problem was that it ran too fast to be usable due to the graphics card (i couldnt work out how to slow it down), and there was no compatible sound driver.... so i got rid of it rather than risk ruining my rose tinted memories!

It works on XP for me (perfectly fine) the only issue is the sound is a second delayed, but who cares, it's GP2.

Only a 1sec delay?!? - just like the ITV coverage of the USGP (at least down under
 )

I have just located my disc but last time it would not load, and I doubt I could help with screenshots anyway.

I can help if you want.
I still play this game and I love it , I have several games going on at once. I simply run both operating systems on my computer (98 and XP) and when I want to play GP2 I change over to 98 , its a fantastic game and i love all the different Mods you can get for it. if you are still interested in having anything from this game let me know exactly what you need (and how I would go about getting them , saving them on my comp) and I will do it no worries Long live GP 2 |

Yes please
I need screen shots of a decent modded set (2006 cars at Bremgarten perhaps?) Other things I need are screen shots of the advanced setup screen and the telemetry (with all of it turned on).. It would be mega if you could do it - GP2 has not been surpassed as far as know - (GPL perhaps?) |
