Virtual Grand Prix 2 (VGP2) with VGPHD textures on MorphOS

[@DaPohli]

Looks absolutely stellar for that time. Hate to have missed it

[@BloodDragooner]

Thanks for the video and detailed subtitles

[@АнатолийЧепига-р1ч]

wow, first time seeing this!

[@vacuumnoise]

this looks so good, is there a way to play it online or...?

[@JellyPowered]

The Network mode doesn't work on MorphOS, because the OpenPlay networking library isn't available on it (I don't remember if anyone has tried to port it or would it be possible at all), but online races should work on other platforms...

Excuse me, but can you provide a download link for the full Virtual Grand Prix 2 VGPHD? Or is this the version on Aminet (it seems to be an HD version). I am also a MORPHOS user. Can you help me? ;) Please help! :) THX!

[@JellyPowered]

The version on Aminet is with the original graphics, not VGPHD. There was a dedicated VGPHD page with new graphics downloads, but it's long gone. MorphOS Storage has some VGPHD textures, but not all and it's missing the more practical SD and LD versions. I have informed MorphOS Storage admin to include the missing files, but he hasn't done it yet. MorphOS Storage files are here: www.morphos-storage.net/?page=Games/Race/VGP2 and missing files are here until they're updated to Storage: jpv.amigaaa.com/vgphd/ . Edit the config/circuiti.config file if you want to add new versions without replacing the original ones.

@@JellyPowered THANKS! ;)

[@rars0n]

What hardware are you running this on?

[@JellyPowered]

PowerMac G5/2.3GHz and Radeon X1950 Pro, a bit overkill for the game, but at least I can keep everything at max :) Originally I ran it on Pegasos 1 G3/600MHz, and it was OK after I upgraded from Radeon 9200SE to Radeon 8500LE, although had to compromize with details still. It was pretty good with my friend's Pegasos II too.
