From time to time, I'm continuing to build up my collection of GP4 content and sharing it with you. There are downloads being added reasonably regularly on this site, though usually quietly in the background. As I've added quite a lot of content in recent weeks, I thought I'd highlight some of them, because there's some really good stuff that's been created in GP4, some of it unfinished, but I hope it may inspire you to add to them.
New tools:
GPaediaMaker & GPH Updater by Petrus
Petrus has been making some great tools to help update your menu screens.
Check them out here:
1970s Mods
Meteoro405 and KerleyF1 has released a few individual cars from the 1970s and I've added links to them on the 1970s Mod page.
- 1970 Ferrari 312B
- 1971 Lotus 72C
- 1974-5 Brabham BT44
- 1975 Ferrari 312T
- 1975 Lola T-371
- 1976 Copersucar FD04
Perhaps in playing these, it may inspire others to add more 1970s content to GP4
1980s Mods
1980 Mod v1.12 by Pedro_27
Thanks for spotting this one, but I only had links to v1.0 of the mod, not realising there was an updated version available. Now the updated mod is available on the site (as well as version 1.0).
Single Seater Mods
Formula E Gen 1 & Gen 5.
As I was making my Gen3 template, I was looking for previous Formula E content, and I found a pack from Gezere of RSCT who had released almost everything you need to make a mod for Formula E season 1. Perhaps I will turn this into a mod for you in the near future
rracunis has also compiled season 5 together, but this is shared privately.
2005 GP2 car Template by Rom1
This is an old one from gp4db, the first GP2 car made by Rom1. He was very good at releasing templates with his cars, and this one is no different.
2013 Dallara GP3/133 Template by Haunetal, NickJW and formula Heinze.
A nice car from Haunetal, originally created for rFactor, and converted to GP4. Sadly not all the liveries were converted, but it's good to have another template for a junior series available.
All of these are available here:
GP4: Junior & Single-Seater Mods
Indycar Mods
2023 Indycar Mod by rracunis
Freshly released is the 2023 Indycar mod converted to GP4 and compiled by rracunis. It's really nice to have these other types of mods in GP4.
CART Template by Oggo & Adry77
Another resurrected download from gp4db.com, here's the 1999 Reynard used in the CART series, along with the Superman livery that Vasser raced with at the Indy 500 that year.
Both of these updates are available here:
Sportscar mods
Added the GT1 car mods from the mid/late-90s, partly real, partly fictional by Meteoro405. I was a fan of the 1990s and the short lived GT1 series, and I may do some work on this in the future, but to begin with, here's the McLaren F1-GTR, the Porsche 911 GT1 and the Mercedes CLK-LM to play with.
Vanilla GP4 in HD
There's a new section on my site. There's been a bit of work done of late to update original GP4 to make it HD. I'm collating all these works here:
Fictional Tracks Page
I have not added much fictional content to my blog, partly because I wanted to concentrate on the 'real world' recreations first but secondly because there's a lot of fantasy liveries, mods and circuits.
When I was looking for tracks to test my Formula E car on, other than Monaco and Valencia Ricardo Tormo, there's not really any tracks for them to race on. But there are quite a few road circuits released individually and also fictious ones that are quite fun and give the right feel for the mod.
So, I've began compiling tracks. I've shared with you a handful to start off with, but I'm busy collecting some others from various sources. Expect this page to start growing in the next few weeks.
That's it from me for the mean time. Until the next post, happy racing!
