Gt4 - Pal ?????

[Golden Helmet]

Hey, anyone know what the deal is with this alleged PAL GT4 release?

Is it just the JAP version? or is it REALLY PAL ?

[genxor]

it's PAL, but it doesn't work.

It has the PAL-on-NTSC flicker and none of the patches work. I did click around a little bit and it has the same menu music as gt3, which is gay.

so it does get past the 1st screen then?

[vtecorona]

the game loads but you can't fix the pal screen bounce, as of yet.

[mgsfan]

ahh..thats good to hear..so long as the us version works without any problems I'll be happy..

ok so what I'm about to say might be out of order, if so I apologise in advance :-)

I've just extracted both layers with apache2, and am now extracting the .VOL files, with the old GTFS extractor that was released back in 2001!!!!

Do you think it's possible to rebuild the disc with the extracted files, or do you think that the exe actually NEEDS the .vol files? if so, how about recreating a GT4.VOL with the files from both layers???

Answers/comments on a postcard...

vtecorona, what you're saying is that the game will work perfect from hdloader on a PAL tv, right?

if that's the case what exactly did you? I assume you flattened the image?
would also appreciate to know your setup (date patch, transfer method etc)

I would like to know also. My dms3 chip can force pal games to play in ntsc mode, which is what I did with GT Tokyo-Geneval (pal version).

Ok I extracted both vol files, GT4.VOL and GT4L1.VOL weirdly both files, appear to contain the EXACT same content...

Anyone else tried this?!
