In GPL F2 mod I am farther from the steering wheel than the other mods.  Is there a way to move seating position forward?

You can change the field of view (FOV) in GEM. Smaller number - 'closer' to the dash.

For this to work you have to delete the gplcf2 exe in your GPL folder and let GEM rebuild it.  Set the FOV you want in GEM and exit GEM.  Go into your GPL folder and find the exe gplcf2 and delete it.  DO NOT delete the gpl exe.  Open GEM and it will rebuild your gplcf2 exe. Try setting FOV at 70 and go from there until you find what you want.  You have to do this for every FOV change you make.

Cheers,

Dave

One more question if I may.  GPL67 and all mods fill my screen except GPL65 which is more of a square picture not filling out to the edges.  Any solutions?

Change the screen resolution ingame, each mod uses its own settings so you can have different resolution for different mods if you wish so
