  1. There's a mod for gt4 but the online public beta version… that's fairly new
    And another one for pcsx2 that's an upscaling to texture to 4k
    Edit: He probably know……
    Edit2: removed quotation marks, also good job to modders for what they did.

  2. Modding Gran Turismo games is getting bigger and bigger. There is custom engine sounds replacing in GT4. In GT6, we can create career events and add them to the game, also engine sounds. We can also use custom made tracks in the career events.

  3. Kaz wanted to put his 911 GT3 into GT3. He had to cut it, since EA obviously had the Porsche Licence. So it was scrapped in late development.

    Fun Fact: If you rotate the GT3 Boxcover, you‘ll actually see the 911 GT3‘ headlights

  4. not that much important but I'm curious if there would be a GT1 Globalized version but with JP soundtracks as well as every playable cars in simulation mode like that old Corvette and NB MX-5

    or rather, GT2 with every single of removed/exclusive contents like Kaz' Lan Evo, DTM CLK and LMP CLK GTR for example.

  5. I also appreciate how the mod author has taken the time to incorporate the model year (à la GT4) at the end of each vehicle's name. Always irritated me going back to GT3 and not seeing that.
    Interested to see how this mod develops in the future!

  6. Hidden content sure. Complex String as a actual playable track with opponents and not just for licensed/time trials would be cool. I mean who wouldn't want a track with all corners to be a challenging course against opponents and see if the AI can actually keep up or get stuck. If possible because their routes aren't made for it while other content is easier to implement of course.

    Music from all versions.

    GT Concept content.

  7. Hi, dev here! Thank you for showcasing the demo. I can elaborate on a few notes that you made:
    • Indeed, GT Mode will be featured in the final version, currently I've been doing the car dealers & they're almost ready, so the dealer lists almost every car on the mod, with a few hidden special cars not featured on purpose. So there's plenty to browse.
    • GT Concept updated a lot of the tracks and car models, and the project features those changes as well, with additional fixes. The project most likely will not initially feature GT4P content, although it may in the future. The McLaren F1 GTR is an exception, as I was able to hex-edit the model to give it a proper night model.
    • Some of the course weather environments (like foggy Midfield) are modded, as the environment data is editable. The course env data still isn't final though, so they may change.
    • This demo is quite old, and a lot has been done since, and things like menu graphics are now possible. So the missing textures aren't there on final, luckily! Textures can't really yet be properly edited themselves, but they can be added to the menus and the textures can be changed.

    I think that's all I wanted to touch upon, and thanks again! If anyone has any questions about the project, feel free to ask.
    -EDIT: Forgot to mention. The mod will work on real hardware as well, so it is not going to be a PCSX2-only game!

  8. this mod feels so off, I played GT Concept and 3 a lot and this feels so… different, Its weird. Like Eden said, the maps feel different but I cant tell what is

    And theres no pod, sadge

  9. This is frigging epicness, so is this going to be like a definitive GT3 edition featuring all NTSC cars a d music in the same game as PAL and will it be possible to put an ISO of it on a disc for PS2?

    Reply
  10. damn… 20 years later I never thought it would forever stay a dream but a GT3 definitive edition is finally a reality!

    Unless if you already have, check out GT4 online enhanced versions and the GT5/6 mastermod. you can even play GT5 online again with tracks ported from GT PSP

  11. This looks really cool. With all the extra content this adds I'd love to see career mode revamped too though I don't know how much work it would take. Maybe reshuffle some prize cars and what tracks use (at least use Test Course less).
