F1GP-Ed 3.36 (12.10.97)
F1GP-Ed is an editor/enhancer for the Amiga version of Formula One Grand Prix / World Circuit.
It allows you to adjust F1GP almost completely to your satisfaction. No
longer is losing concentration the greatest threat to becoming world
champion. With this program you'll be really pushing yourself just to put
your car near the front of the grid. Full details of what is possible are
contained in the documentation.
Latest News (updated 27 January 1998)
The next version (3.40 if things go as planned) won't be ready until later
this year :-( Hopefully, the new version will be ready just after the '98
F1 season begins in March. I will be adding some new features, including some kind of
program launcher for SplitTime, AGPPerf, etc. Something which has
occupied most of my F1GP development time, recently, is a new patch which allows F1GP
to work on non-15kHz screenmodes (i.e. not PAL or NTSC). As a result of
my work on this, there will also be a patch which utilizes the power of the
AGA chipset, which will make the game slightly faster/smoother on an A1200
or A4000. Also, the following bugs in v3.36 have been fixed:
- Due to a bug in the ILBM reader code I 'borrowed', F1GP-Ed could hang
(or simply show corrupted images) when decoding IFF-ILBM files using the
cockpit and backdrop windows. This only happens with images that have been
saved in PPaint or DPaint with a stencil switched on.
- The digital joystick dual gear change button feature now works as it
should have - before, it was impossible to preset button 2 for changing
up a gear.

27-Jan-98: New cockpit design -
James Bott has updated his rather nice cockpit design. It has many unique
features, and also sports a more realistic palette (which needs to be
imported into F1GP-Ed).
26-Jan-98: New cockpit collection -
Paul Snowdon recently sent me his collection of cockpit designs,
including some '98 designs. As there were so many I've decided to
release them altogether in a single archive - currently only available
from Aminet (game/data/PS_Cockpits.lha).
