Gp4 How To Install Mods In Sims
Jim “jimbob1” Connors recently had the chance to interview one of virtual racing’s true legends – Geoff Crammond. Starting with REVS in 1984 and going all the way to the groundbreaking “Grand Prix” series that shaped racing games in the 90s, Crammond is one of the true pioneers who has impacted the way racing games are being designed to this very day. Ever since Grand Prix 4 was released in 2002, Crammond has not been involved publicly in creating another game and interviews with the industry veteran have become rare (the was released in 2010). Follow the link below to Jim’s interview as Crammond shares some light on the development process behind the Grand Prix series, speaks about current racing simulations and more!
To install and organize custom content or mods, you will first need to understand the folder/file structure and hierarchy of The Sims 4 installations of which there are two; one main program directory and a game content directory. Highlight (use your cursor to draw a box around) the.package files in the folder and then right-click on them and select 'cut'. Now you'll need to navigate to your Sims 4 Mods folder. To do this, go to Documents Electronic Arts The Sims 4 Mods. Once you're in that folder, simply right-click anywhere and then select 'Paste.'
GP4 was super amazing game, it had many features that no modern game had since, such as when you wreck you car, it gets pulled to the side of the road by marshalls, and then lifted by crane and cleared out of track!! I also enjoyed VERY MUCH the fact that the replays were done in a F1 broadcast style, with TAG heuer official timing, icons on screen matching broadcasts etc ( although I think there was F1 Racing Championship game that probably did this even better) Also it’s AI was very good, it was very authentic hopefully one day we will see this again,. I’d say Geoff is one of the two great legends of our hobby, the other of course, being Dave Kaemmer. We are unquestionably now in the second golden age of sim racing.
The first was of course when we had groundbreakers like GP 1-4, Indycar 2, NR2K3 and GPL to play with. It says a lot that many of those titles are still being driven even today. I spent a good deal of last weekend in the company of a heavily modded GPL and it still delivers on so many levels. It would be great to see GC lending his support to a modern day title, but I guess the game has moved along significantly since his heyday and, if he hasn’t kept pace with developments, maybe it would be difficult to rekindle the old magic. There is a current precedent however. Look at the overwhelming reaction to David Braben’s Elite Dangerous – well worth a look if you’re into space sims.

Geoff knew how to make a proper Grand-Prix games that offered levels of detail and features many to these days fail to match. The grand-prix series was a fantastic example in how to make a game that delivered believable physics right from keyboard users to wheel users. And let’s not forget the changeable weather and the fact it could be partial to any part of the track. And the level of assists were amazing. Shame codemasters say he is an inspiration yet fail to get close to his products. Wish he would make a new GP series title. I’ve been hoping to see the Grand Prix series come to GOG (in fact there are a whole bunch of games that I’ve been hoping for).
Sadly though, racing (with real vehicle brands) and sports titles are accompanied by thousands of miles of red tape as far as licensing goes. There are probably ways to get your hands on some of them but 1) I like to legally own my games and 2) Compatibility with modern systems could be a problem.
If companies aren’t going to sell their games, I wish they’d just openly release them as abandonware and make the source code public. Great games should be played, not fade away with peoples memories of them.
