This archive contains new 1999 season far more detailed cars, the up-to-date Teams and Drivers files
(though, because VGP doesn't simulate drivers' injuries, the 1999 season cannot be properly
reproduced) and some car setups of mine so that people can understand how to do them.
The files must replace the corresponding ones in the corresponding drawers.
!!! IMPORTANT !!!
The texture included in the first archive (AF1upgrI.lha) doesn't contain the right colors!!! Use
this one to paint your own textures. BTW, the VerBrush.data file has been updated to contain the
new 1999 sponsors, so the new map is:
1 "Marlboro" ad
2 "Amiga" ad
3 "TheAlien" logo

A NOTE ON CAPACITORS
If you are trying to add the capacitors to multiply your analogue input as explained in the previous
FAQ (AF1upgrI.lha), mind the fact that you must use AnaCal in the same screenmode of VGP to get
the right values. VGP tries to open a CGFX screen (if you have got a gfx-board) otherwise it goes
for MULTISCAN, DBLPAL or PAL in this order depending on the availability of the "Monitors" files
in your DEVS:Monitors/ drawer.
So, if you play VGP in MULTISCAN, you must start the analogue test utility from anacal.lha in
MULTISCAN too, otherwise you'll get erroneus readings and you won't be able to find out the right
capacitors values (the Amiga's analogue input circuitry is screenmode-dependant)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
There isn't an "official" VGP www site, at the moment, so upgrades/patches
etc. will be available on Aminet. There is anyway a VGP mailing list, there are
already many users there, willing to share ideas / setups / hints etc. You can post
your questions there too. To join it, simply send a blank mail to:
virtualgp-subscribe@egroups.com
Remember, however, that it's a "user mailing list", so for any questions about
availability of the game, purchase orders, replacing / refunding, etc. you should
contact Epic Marketing
