- ImpGPE V4.1 23rd June 1995 Trevor Kellaway (CIS:100331,2330)
-
-
- ImpGPE is a DOS command line program which takes a GPeditor style GPE file
- and applies all the patch information to GP.EXE.
-
- ImpGPE is intended as a simple replacement for GPeditor's "Import - GPE"
- function for those people who can't (or don't want to) run Windows.
-
- Usage: ImpGPE (GPE filename) [Output Names filename] [GP.EXE]
-
- For example:
-
- ImpGPE F1SA.GPE F1SA.NAM GP.EXE
-
- The above line reads the patch data from F1SA.GPE and applies the patches to
- GP.EXE. If F1SA.GPE also contains the drivers/teams/engines names a game
- compatible names file is written to F1SA.NAM. Only the input GPE filename
- need be specified, GPE.NAM will be used as the default filename for the names
- files, and GP.EXE as the default for the game.
-
- The patch information comprises all the car and helmet colours, the car
- performance information, the driver performance information, the driver aids,
- AI car grip and player's car power.
-
- The Import file may also contain a comment. If this is the case the comment
- will be displayed along with the date/time the file was created and which
- version of GPeditor was used to create it.
-
- Note that there is no way to paint your own car colour with ImpGPE. Use
- GP.EXE "Driver Selection" command to setup your own name in the F1SA.NAM
- file.
-
- ImpGPE will also allow you to use any of the driving aids at any skill level.
-
- Make sure you have taken a backup copy of GP.EXE just in case things go
- wrong. Note that if you miss out the name file *and* specify GP.EXE then
- it will overwrite your GP.EXE file with the name information, probably not
- what you intended! <g>
