More opponents in GT4

[rossaccio]

With the latest understanding of the adhoc code and expansion of the RAM limit on pcsx2, will it be possible in a near future to race against more than 5 opponents in GT4?

The short answer is no.

The game is designed around the exact amount of RAM that the PS2 has, so it won't take advantage of any extra emulated RAM. The adhoc code is generally just used for the menus, which means that changing memory allocations would require serious reverse-engineering of the game engine itself, a much more difficult job than the adhoc scripts.

It would require work to such an extent it would likely be easier to try to recreate the game through entirely new code in a different engine.

damn, have to wait for that pc port then

truly a shame. if that was possible i don't think there would be a reason to play any other offline racing game

i went and did a bit of research at the time because i was bored and i don't quite remember exactly, but i think the adhoc code thing i got from the creator of the re-tuned mod. as for the ram expansion, i think it's one of the latest (i could be wrong, i use a quite old version to play) features of the pcsx2 emulator
