Any chance of a decompile of Grand Prix Manager Two please?

[Voxcon]

Hi,there i saw your decompile of older games,i also remember playing m.u.l.e it was great back in those days.Im here today to ask for your possible assistance for a partial or full decompile of Grand Prix Manager Two please? The reason for the decompile is that the game has few bugs that could be fixed? or we could do with a better 3rd party game editor.There is a Starfire game editor which is used for making mods,but it's very limited.The things we know about Grand Prix Manager Two is that it has a bult in basic editor,also there's a hidden track editor inside the code.As a community back at http://www.gpm2world.com/ it's very hard to find anybody intrested in this project this is why we asked you because have a intrest in decompilation and reverse engineering.If it's not possible as a decompile project.We was hoping maybe a better 3rd party editor but game is pretty complex,anyway i saw no harm in asking thanks for your time.

Just a little info about the game

In the current Starfire editor we can only change:

TEAM EDIT

Team name:any

Manager:any

Engine:all engines

Home track:
Can't edit track fee

Cheif constructor:any in pool

Cheif engineer:any in pool

Cheif mechanicany in pool

PR manager:any in pool

Edit logo:any

but theres no way of editing contracts for Cheif constructor,
Cheif engineer,Cheif mechanic,PR manager in terms of fees,age,contract legnth.


DRIVERS EDIT

All driver stats can be edited apart from contract length(would like to see this change)

Can't set driver contract under 16 races


ENGINE EDIT

Name: any

Model:any

Power in hp:100Min/900Max

Quality:1-5 stars

Weight:107kg Min/???kg Max

Country:any

Logo:any

But we can't set contract length or price

EXTERNAL SUPPILERS

All stats can be edited But we can't set contract lengths or prices


SPONSORS

Name:any

BANK

Can't edit bank loan or intrest% reypayment

FIA

Can't edit FIA fines penaltys or set season driver aids or banned parts

OTHERS

Can't edit the quality and amout of staff for other teams

Known bugs:

Out of fuel bug

Electronics bug

Spun off bug

0 lap bug

Ai teams sometimes signing drivers for 48 races bug

Race where every driver has problem failures or crashes bug (rare)
see below:


FIA 107% qualifying rule bug




The only other thing is we can't set the starting budgets for other teams or the amount of factroys they have built or the prices to build those.One last thing is that the game will end afther ten seasons wish we could break that?

Welcome Voxcon,

I've read your whole post with interest.

I'm impressed by your work on this game. Too bad, i've never played it... even known it.

I'll have a quick look at the asm code to see the quality of the compiler which has been used. I have bad experience with x86 compiler, they are often used with some compile options for optimisations, making the code almost unreadable when disassembled.

I'll give it a try, but i don't promise you anything... The most helpful clues to reverse engineer a game are the perfect knowledge of it, and as i said you before, i've never played it.

I see you've already run w32dasm on it. Did you already reverse engineered some code?

Have a nice day,
Pascal

Ill be honset that isn't my code i posted it came from the gpm2 world forums,there is another guy but because like me he knows little about decompilation this why we need help.I can't be shure if the exe's are badly cracked in the first place or if the Starfire editor intorduces new bugs?The best thing i can suggest is try playing a normal game at rookie mode ethier a top team like Williams or a very poor team like Cassini.In your first year your be lucky if you can score one or more points all season.Also sponsors only sign for 16 races in first year that's if your lucky to get any sponsor at all.Then you some how need to design next years car before the start of next season and renew contracts all this without going bankrupt Then if you get into season 2nd season you may attract bigger sponsors and actually break even or heaven forbid make a profit By about season 3 you should be your be able to score regular points/wins maybe even build a few factroys.From season 4 you should be qite financially secure with all factroys and able to challenge for
constuctors championship or drivers championship....none of this easy.Somebody said once the quickest way to become a millonaire is to become a f1 team owner.

Other things i would check is perfect carsetups you download those from gpm2 world,unless you want devlop your own and it's hard work testing and costs lot of money.

Starfire editor can also be downled at gpm2 world here you change a few things but not enough

Also there's the patches an no cd's at gpm2 world

On main screen at any time you can cheat by typing "iamacheat"

The FAQ at gpm2 world as far as i know is most accurate information on the game so i would read that too

At this point i would like to say a big thank you for your intrest on be half everybody a gpm2 world.We realise it's alot work so were just thankfull your even lookin.So were just gonna leave any descions to you if anything more could be done.

[Kroah]

I've registred to your forum, but i can't post anything because of the anti-spam feature. I've contacted NeilPearson by PM to try to resolve this problem.

I wanted to post this:

I haven't found a 1.02b version of GPM2 without the 256 desktop colors restriction.

To debug the program, i needed it.

Regards,
Pascal

[Voxcon]

As far as i know there isnt a 256 colors work around but i could wrong?Yes it's highly anoying but i dont think it can be fixed sorry.I did try that file you uploaded it didn't work for me gpm2 wont even start and it still whines about 256 colors.

Edit: I have full iso image of the game from disc,not shure if it would be usefull too you if so let me know please?,then i can upload someware too your space?

Also you might wanna check out these threads:

It seems the system you're running is different from mine. With the executable i attached in my previous post, I can run the game with a desktop set at 32 bits, without having the nag "This program will not run at the moment. It requires Windows to be in 256 colour mode.". Can you tell me on wich system you tested it ? Mine is XP sp2.

Edit: I have full iso image of the game from disc,not shure if it would be usefull too you if so let me know please?,then i can upload someware too your space?

Thanks, if i need it, i'll ask you.

Concerning the executable, It's a PE format. In the link you gave me, some strings are readable because they're in the .rsrc linked with the exe. Unfortunately, IDA Pro can't read the resource, making the work difficult because they contain the menu and dialog of the game too. Another disassembler i have can extract the resources and link them with the disassembled code, but it's not as friendly as IDA.

I'll check if i can find something.

Im just useing win xp home sp3 quad core 2.4 ghz and 3 gigs ddr 800.The version of game im useing came from http://www.abandonia.com/en/games/912/G ... ger+2.html. Gimmie a shout on msn if you want mines is:

a_symptom_of_the_universe@msn.com

I uploaded Grand Prix Manager one not shure how uesfull this would be? i think the code is qite similar as the games almost look the same apart from bits missing and few extra gpm1 has.

http://rapidshare.com/files/163066801/G ... r.zip.html

Edit

I sort of feel abit useless so i was wondering is there anyway i could help you with decompile process? I mean if we are useing the same software i was sort of guessing if you told me what to do and how i could help with smaller parts.But ill be honest i dont know anything how to use this stuff
The best i could do is just follow instuctions and relay the results back here it's just an idea.Or perhaps i might be more hindrance in trying to help you?

[Kroah]

Well, i've begun looking at the code. Menus are a real nightmare to walk through, and there are lot of them. The fact i don't know the game doesn't help me either.

I'll go on with the hope it will become easier. Unfortunately you can't help me in any way for now, but thanks for you proposal.

I'm curious to try something but the original CD is needed:
- Can you try to type in "flitest" instead of "Benetton" at the screen "Quick Start -> Rookie -> Set Up Your Team", then click on "Change Logo".

I think it will play all the movies, or something like that.

Edit: You can play individual FLI by typing the name of the fli instead of "Flavio Briatore", then clicking on "Select Team"

Ok i did as you asked and nothing happens sorry Because i may of did something wrong and can't think what that could be.I found a mds/mdf image on rapidshit it should be the same as mine but with some mods you can ignore those and just use the mds and mdf files.If the original exe whines like a fag with messge like:One of the library files needed to run GPM2.EXE cannot load in the 16-bit Windows subsystem because it is a Win32 DLL.

just use a cracked gpm2 exe.This what i had to do

Code: Select all

Strange that neither the 256 colors patch and this work.
- Can you try the 1.02b 256 colors patch with the gpm2 rip?

I will try with the iso from rapidshare as soon as possible. Thanks for the link.

Do you have an account on gpm2world?

I have registered there, but an anti-spam bug prevent me from posting anything. So i'll ask you:
- Do you have a well advanced savegame (1.02b)?
I haven't much time and the game is still difficult for me to last several seasons.

Thanks

[Voxcon]

I will setup an account today as Voxcon as ive losted my old one I will also attempt to patch the iso version i have here with the patch and no cd.It should be no problem for me to start a game today useing the most default settings,were i think i see bugs i shall save the game at as well as normal saves.Also i shall save just before i hit the ten season limit or i could save at inportant points in game like building factroys,etc,etc

Edit:

I appiled the official GPM2 v1.02B patch ok no probs with the iso, but the GPM2102B NoCD No256 will not work.I don't think it will be a problem as im running direct from the iso?

I added me and you both at youthfull age of 22 and pretty sweet lookin tester Melanie Beck,also i upped our budget too a realistic $40,000,000 and changed Tsunami which is worst team possible named to Iratatek

Well this is the story of team Iratatek's first ever season with Ilmor power 640hp/weight 126kg/**/price$750000 each engine for 1 season

Note: you need 3 engine's for 1 season and then any other replacments wich cost more or worst still a complete new chassis which is even more or if we are really unlucky both.

We often had the pace with you scoreing just a tiny way off the points most of the time so there's a promise of a good driver in a crap car


I had bad luck with 3 poles but being unable to turn them into points


Yeah...right that lousy 1 point cost us two arms and two legs and any other body parts going spare


We manged to score 1 crummy point all season that cost a grand total of
$35387581




Next season we have good sponsors and a slighty better engine then the Ilmor crap we had

Ive added 3 saves in a rar

1st relates to the start of the season when i started building factroys

2nd relates 1 race before the end of the season

3rd relates to start of 2nd season with all factroys bulits so we can expect slighty better results

Edit:

2nd season with Nissan mx v8 650hp/weight/110kg/***/price$900000 engine for 1 season

Well i just got back from finshing season 2 and news is not good not even a single point and we are deep in financial shit so much so we had to drop current test driver and replace her with 7mill pay driver.Then i had to replace ethier 1st or 2nd driver based on stats because the pay driver won't pay for testing duties So for last seven races you did testing sorry bout this.Are budget dropped too 2 mill because of this no engine supplier would entertain us,so i had no choice but to inject 10 mill just so we could sign with bmw power.As soon as the contract was signed i removed the cash back down too 2mil.Even then on the last race before the 3rd season i had to get a 1 mill loan from the bank just so we could make it just by the skin of our teeth

Bad news even with 7mill pay driver oh and the fia fine just for that extra kick in the balls


This gonna hurt us but i had no option



Huge cut backs on cheapist parts and each department under 1 mill for staffing *cheapskate mode on*



Good an bad news we sign with bmw power but had pointless 2nd season




The final insult and slap in the face we where disqualified and fined for this race.I had calculated with both cars qualifying in the top 5 for last race of the season it was worth the risk using the banned turbo on the best driver for the race only,sadly it came back to bite us in the ass



Ive added 3 more saves in irata2 rar

The only hope for us is if i pump in another 15 mill which needs to be payed back with the other 40mill we invested for a single point on season 1 and 5mill ive just payed bmw, also 1 mill from the bank that needs to be payed back.Then we really must make a profit at some point,grand total of 61 mill spent.The only good thing is we go into season 3 knowing we have bmw power and car designed with last seasons factroys which we did not have so in theory we should make a big step in car design and the added extra horsepower will help,also turbo's are legal in the up comming season so I plan to focus on new transmission and gearbox and if we have the time front and back wing.

It's not been all bad in season 2 it was a matter of we had the lightist car on grid but was underpowered we often qualified in the top ten and top five but didnt have the raw power needed in the race.

Edit:
3rd season just starting with bmw power hp710/weight 141kg/***half/price$1750000 each engine for 1 season

The plan is now is too use the 15 mill very wisely then mid season swap the 7mill pay driver and you back to postion 2 if i can build on the 15mill we have which is vital

Edit
3rd season in with 8 races to go we are very often qualifying postions 1and 2 but still no points.Im now thinking a switch too Ford HB power/685hp/weight130kg/*** but this could ethier be big step forward in terms of weight and we top out close to 700hp limit but engine quality goes down too ***The only good news is that from the 15 mill we had is now 23 mill.Bottom line is if we don't score siginficant points this season we then have very limited choice in terms of other engine suppliers for next year being are:
BMW power at same price i think maybe next year more hp?
Honda power/730hp/153kg/$2250000/****
Nissan MX V8/650hp/110kg/uknown i wil explain why soon/***
Ilmor Power/640hp/126kg/$750000/**
Lamborgini Power/730hp/157kg/$100000/**
and Ford HB as metioned

Suppliers won't talk us if theres no points or sometimes they are too small for another team or we see this below

Those eliteist bastards wont sign to us


And you think that's bad enough but worst is still too come see below agian

Now these bastard's wont even talk to us


So as you see we are in a very tricky postion if i jump ship again BMW may never talk to us or any othe suppiler we do it too.The other problem is if we don't react quick enough the other suppilers may not talk to us becuse of no points or lower team postion unless we score points.Idealy we need a win at all costs to open more engine supplier options.


Edit:
End of season 3 some good news and possible bad news we are still making cash and qualifying 1 and 2 very often.I took the only sensible option for balance hp vs weight and signed with Ford HB at the very last race.

Last race of the season and thank's to your barn storming drive at suzka in monsoon conditions we scored 2 points are best result ever with you driving home to glorious 5th postion saving our skin at the 11th hour.

Congrat pics below:

Bravo!!!










Irata3 rar contains the last two saves


Edit:

Starting season 4 with Ford HB power/685hp/weight130kg/price/***
9 more races into the season so far and result's are finaly starting too come good.I have have just scored continous back to back two 5th places resulting in a total of 4 points so far for our team.

This how the constuctors points look so far below

Holy fuckin shit!! we are now fighting for 6th and at best 5th place in the standings


Update:

With 5 more races to go i have just again score another 5th place that takes our total too 6 points

This is what the updated constuctor's looks like.If we can steal 5th place from under Jordans nose we stand a fair chance of signing with a better engine supplier or im thinking stay with Ford HB Power



Update:
We have just finshed season 4 it wasn't possible too take 5th place from Jordon But i have resigned us too Ford HB power/685hp/weight130kg/$3500000/*** for season 5

We can be very proud of season 4 as it's been are most historic season too date despite still being in 7th place team postion


more saves: in irata4 relates too

Irata10 relates to start of season 4

Wow, what a story! Now i dream to be a F1 driver

I've loaded several of your savegames and they seem to work flawlessly.
Thanks a lot.

Too bad this week end i'm not at home. I'll not be able to do anything on gpm2.

I've finished disassembling it. Now i'm looking for the memory addresses. That's here the savegames help me.

I'll keep you in touch of my WIP next week.

Cheers,
Pascal

Im glad your enjoying the story so far this should give a better insight into the game workins.Shure i could have started of with the best team and of everything even cheating but it's no fun.So i wanted us too play in style with worst of everything fighting tooth and nail turning a super minnow team into winners that dare to dream for more only time will tell.
