GT4 General Discussion and Questions

Complete AI Pit strategy guide for the 16 Endurance Races.
Have a look in that thread.
Not only does it list the 15 possible (16 if you're in the PAL region, which you are, being in Turkey) cars that your opponents will be selected from for this race, which are more or less all DTM and JGTC 300 cars, but it also tells you when you can expect them to pit. 👍
Oh, and it has the same information for the other 15 endurance races too!

ok I read that topic. I have PAL game.

I pretty much find it impossible to complete some of the driving missions.

I don't know if this will get more publicity here, or in the 200 A-Spec points forum, but I might as well post it here to give that forum some publicity of it's own:

Does anyone want to work on fixing up the A-Spec Point Data; Values, Races, and Modifications thread with some more data? I don't think it's going to be updated by him any time soon. What I'm mostly referring to is the values of the cars. What was his starting reference? Couldn't they just as easily been 17 points higher, giving the FGT a normal 2000 points?

This would of course mess up the multipliers, although if we wanted to re-find them I'm sure we could.

Also, I was thinking of finding more about HP and Weight as factors in determining the Value of the car. With the help of Famine's "Notes on A-Spec data" (don't have the link handy, but it's in the same forum) I bet we could find some valuable information.

I just really want to crack the A-Spec code, and with help (hopefully from some A-Spec Nutters or Famine himself) I bet we could find out a lot (or that PD has an incredibly complicated system for calculation points and values).

Now that I think of it, this probably would be better in that forum, but it gets so much less traffic, and I bet some people reading this never knew that forum existed. If a mod wants to move this the the A-Spec point discussion thread, feel free to do so.

...and?

I don't think tips/discussion can help me that much. It all comes down to my skill level.

Thanks though.

And videos. Don't forget the videos.

I really believe that, with enough practice and knowledge, anyone can gold anything in GT4.

 

[Sureboss]

Agreed, there is quite a lot of margin for error, I got 80 golds in 2 weeks, spending maybe 9 hours over the 2 weeks. I spent the most on the Audi test at the hairpin at Tsukuba. It's not rocket science.

Hey,
i was wondering what would classify as a car as a "production car" becuase im trying to do the supercar festival and cant find a good "poduction car" and i saw a caddillac cien so i anted to use mine but it said it wasnt a "production car" anyways

Thanks,
HopedZero

 

[Metar]

Anything that isn't a concept car or a racecar.

If you want that sort of power, look no further than the Zondas. Alternatively, find something more civil and challenging.

Go into Arcade Mode. Pick a manufacturer. Anything with "Road Car" at the top left is a production car. Anything with "Tuner Car", "Concept Car" or "Race Car" isn't. The Cien is a Concept.


"Production" really means real car, really made by a really real manufacturer and not tuned in any way.

 

[HopedZero]

alrighty thanks

what is skill for? I draw in red circle on the photo them. what add skills to the game?

playing the game adds skill. you have circled B-Spec skill levels, which means you are needing to get your B-Spec driver to drive more. there are good guides and instructions on getting your B-Spec skill level up.

try here for starters: https://www.gtplanet.net/forum/showthread.php?t=61033

good hunting

 

[GT1985]

anyone know if it is possible to schedule automatic pitstops?? it would be nice for endurance events, esp. the 24H ones. thanks.

 

[D_gamer725]

Although this might end the series, It would be cool if we could download cars from the internet and put them into the game. That way, we could get the newest cars onto the game without waiting for a seqeal.
Plus, it would be nice to have a pure white background for photomode.

You never saw that last post

 

[nd 4 holden spd]

I've heard of double posting, but triple posting? Did you know you can edit your posts and change what you said the second time?

I have heard that the first feature may come to GT5, though anyone else can tell you news on that.

As for the white background: over-expose the picture. But, what could you do with one?

MasterGT, that would explain a lot. Thank you.

 

[MasterGT]

D_gamer755 means he wants to create something like a developer's image.

Having ready-made images with no backgrounds makes life so much easier when making images for some web pages or other content, such as advertisements.

Good idea, D_gamer755!

Cheers,

MasterGT

whats the best car to beat de la sarthe 24H II with? anyone...anyone...bueler...bueler...

 

[Metar]

Any of the LMP-class cars is fit to do it. There's a thread with a comparison of them in B-Spec, checking which one is actually best.

Winner was, I think, the Pescarolo Courage C60 - but every other LMP, Group C or LMGTP car is fit. If you're going on a budget, then the Toyota Minolta (won at the El Capitan enduro), Mercedes CLK-GTR (Won at the DTM) or one of the other to-win LMPs will do. If B-Spec has troubles, a Stage 4 Turbo may be the solution - but a human driver should be capable without it.

 

[Sureboss]

Doing the GT Championship in the Minolta, only 4 points per race due to a Camaro and Chapparal, but it's close between me and the Nissan R92CP in most of the races. However I'm more fussed about getting through to the extreme hall, I'll come back to better points later.

 

[GT1985]

Thanks Metar...I actually ended up beating it with with the Formula GT. Another question...I cannot seem to beat the 15 Race Formula GT Cup. I'm wondering if there is a car out there that will piss all over the Formula GT, or if its just a matter of tranny settings. I've got the first 7 races figured out, after that I'm getting crushed. Anyone out there willing to share their settings for each of the races, or enlighten me of a faster car?

PS: I'm racing in B-spec. Any help much appreciated...this is my last cup to beat!

 

[Metar]

The Formula GT, well, is the fastest car in the game - bar the Minolta on the Nurburgring in the hands of rather skilled human drivers.

There's nothing to it but careful watching and adjusting of pace.

 

[GT1985]

Thank you "Zardoz"!! I searched the forums and found my answer...a complete listing of settings for all races in the GT Cup. Haven't tried it yet, though...time to cut myself off socially for the next 15 hours. If anyone wants these settings, I'll gladly get them to you.

 

[Sureboss]

Hey, just accomplished my 3rd 200pt race in my stock Cien in the Like the Wind race.

I almost quit, but then thought "what if the LMPs pit" and they did. Oh yeah!

 

[formula_seeker]

What about the 10 second penalty while hitting the wall or another Racer?? Is this confirmed in the game? Will the AI also be punished for this?
Okay am sorry if questions are not supposed to be asked.
Well most things I want are already listed above this post.
I want more Stock Car Racing Events specially the SuperCars and Exotics to have more non-tuned races. That'll show the real potential of each cars on the Track..
How about they include the TopGear Test Track , that way we can check if we're better than the Stig in the real life.
Okay, I think I better stop.

You're lucky. The penalty is for 5 seconds not 10.

I would like to put these cars in the 1980's Used Car Lot:
Nissan Silvia (CSP311)
Mitsubishi Galant GTO MR
Citroën 2CV Type A '54
Mazda 110S (L10A) '67
Mazda 110S (L10B) '68
Dodge Charger 440 R/T '70
Plymouth Super Bird '70
Dodge Charger Super Bee 426 Hemi '71
DOME ZERO '78
Ford RS200 '84

And would like to create a Black BMW V12 LMR Race Car '99.

Read the posting date. Please, you've already resurrected one thread for no reason. That post was from 2004. He probably figured it out by now.

And why are you making a wishlist for GT4 when it's already out?

 

[Street Racer 77]

hi i´m new here. i have a question: i saw many pictures about the las vegas dragstrip, where was to cars on it. one of this pictures was from jordon.
who can you make this?



ps. my english isn´t so good because i´m from germany.

 

[Metar]

Do you mean how to reach the Vegas Dragstrip? If so, you can do it via Power & Speed on the menu, and selecting the dragstrip. It costs about 5Cr, if I remember correctly.

Any questions, feel free to PM me in German.

Thanks for clarifying.
And I think it would be cool if we could buy a dome zero from the used car lot.

And how about the ZZII? That car is crap IMO. (and they still call it a supercar.)
