For Grand Prix 2 by MicroProse

This page is for Hotlaps of the Microprose game Grand Prix 2. And not just any hotlaps, but Real Hotlaps. If you have made a good lap that complies to the Rules, send the thing here. Thanks to Christer for assisting software!

I recommend using GP2LAP. GP2LAP logs some additional information (for example the processor occupancy) into the hotlap file. This data can be viewed using HOF2LAP. Every lap that uses GP2LAP will get a special highlighting in the page.

Rules

• UNLIMITED PRACTISE -mode only.
• Only analog steering, analog gas and analog brakes.
• No steering help, No opposite lock help.
• None of F1 - F7 helps.
• No over 100% processor occupancy.
• No wall contacts in street circuits, No going off the track
• No any other means of cheating (plank wear is not a cheat).

Click times to load hotlap replays. If it is marked +setup, then the zipfile contains separate setup file, setups may also be extracted from other hotlaps. Laps that have been on the page for less than a month, are marked as new.

What does processor occupancy -rule mean?

If you do not use GP2LAP

So if you can drive around the track with no over 100% occupancy at any point,
then it is no more necessary to check the occupancy in the hotlaps you make in that same track with the same graphics settings.

If you use GP2LAP

No going off the track

Definition: Wheel is outside the track if there is pixels between the wheel and the track. The kerb and the white line belong to the track.

Part 1: Grass, gravel, kerb
No wheels outside the track. Exception: Rear wheel may very shortly be out when it just has left the end of a kerb at the exit of a corner (this is realistic).

Part 2: White lines
Two wheels may be outside the track, two must be inside.

This rule can best be checked from a still picture when viewing the car from behind in the replay.

That was the definition, now I'll once more try to say the general idea so that anyone understands.
NO WHEELS OFF THE TRACK, EXCEPT TWO OVER THE WHITE LINES IN ASPHALT.
