Never has the term "Golden Oldie" been more appropriate than for GPL, and it's set to get even better with an incredible looking W.I.P Isle of Man TT mod...
Built by one man modding powerhouse Jim Pearson for the venerable Grand Prix Legends simulation, the work in progress build of the mammoth Isle of Man TT course looks nothing short of exceptional even at this late stage of development, really maximising what is possible for a game that is fast approaching 20 years since its initial public release in 1998.
According to the latest progress video at the head of this article, Jim has reached about 95% completion up to the Sulby section of the circuit, with the remaining parts of the lap still under heavy development and featuring placeholder trackside objects.
Regardless of the age of the sim, or the state of completion with this mod, the upcoming Isle of Man TT Course for Grand Prix Legends is looking incredible and is a testament to both the enduring quality of the simulation, and the dedication of modders such as Jim Pearson who continue to produce outstanding pieces of community made content, even two decades after the game first hit the store shelves all the way back in 1998. Awesome.
