How to lower convertible roofs?

[ClunBB9]

Does anyone know how to lower the convertible's roofs? I've tried doing a search on it with no luck. Anyway, could someone please let me know?

when u select a convertible on arcade mode after you've selected the colour it gives you the option to open or close the roof

Is it only in arcade mode?

 

[PeterJB]

i never found out how to in GT mode so at the moment yes

I'm pretty sure no you can't in GT mode. Kinda sucks, doesn't it? I bought a SC430 and with the closed top it looks like crap!

well you can have it down on the free run and photo shoot modes

Open-top convertibles are limited in the same way that the Benz Patent Motor Wagen, Daimler Motor Carriage, Ford Model T, and other "special" cars are. The PS2 can only draw the driver and interior when there's barely anything else around.

Is that only in the PAL version? I see no such option in my game...

when i use my convertible s2000 in a race in GT mode sometimes the game has the top down and sometimes up. it changes it by itself.

You can have open roof only when you are racing against one car. All events at Tsukuba Wet for example.

Isn't there an option in options?

You can only choose in Arcade Mode

Basically if you're solo or against one opponent, you get the top down and an animated driver. The PS2 can't animate a driver and 5 other cars. It's just too many polygons.

You say, "well, this game does it!" But that game's cars look like poo next to GT4's cars, don't they? If you give up polygons, you can get more things. If you want really nice looking things, you can't have as many of them.

Until 5 on 3, that is.

(That's GT5 on PS3, for those who thought I was talking hockey for some reason.)
