Update 8.5: The 12 hidden tracks have been enabled by using a modified the config.bin file.
UPDATE: A
Eight version of the loader has been released. Incase you wondering v.7 had a bug, and v.8 was released right afterwards.
The newest update (v.8 ) has the Background music and Announcers voice now working. As far as I can tell, the game is now working 100% (if you dont included LAN games)
Note: Romhack said he is still working on new version that will handle analog controls betters by accounting for sensitivity and speed.[/size]
OLDER INFO and Installation instructions:
A working loader has been released for Battle Gear 4 by romhack using a modified version of his TTX_Monitor. Please use your google-fu to find it as posting it here is not allowed.
Note: there are two dumps of Battle gear 4 online. You will need the Battle Gear 4 tuned pro version. The way to tell the diff is the main directory contains a Data folder and game.exe file. If your dump has ton of stuff like Document and setting, typexsys and windows folder in the main directory, you downloaded the wrong dump.
to use the loader:
1.Place (game4.exe,TTX_config2.0.exe and TTX_monitor.dll) into the main directory.
2. open the ttx_config2.0.exe and map the buttons/axis, then close it. I have included pre-configured setting for 2 pedal logitech wheels and and xbox controllers below.
axis1 is accel
axis2 is brake
axis3 is steering
start is start
service is coin
3. open game4.exe (on first start up, it will have you map the accel and brake, if you need to reset this, just delete config.bin to restart the process. once you have it configured properly, you will not need to repeat this process, unless you delete the config file)
4. OPTIONAL BUT RECOMMEND= make a bat file to enable fullscreen. the bat file should be
game4.exe _MTS_FULL_SCREEN_
5.Optional- go to test menu using the test button, (use shifters to navigate and start to select) go to configuration, hit the start button on coin until it reads free play, exit test menu. The game will close but the setting will be saved.
Pre-configured settings
I went ahead and made pre-configured setting for 2 pedaled logitech wheels (make sure pedal are not marked combined in windows) and a xbox controller
THIS DOES NOT INCLUDE THE HACKED EXE OR DUMP FILES.

There are 3 xbox controller preconfig versions. If you have a config.bin file in your directory, delete it before copying over the preconfigured files. Only copy one pre configured version files into main directory and open you open game4.exe, follow the instructions on the screen to map the gas and brakes.
Dual Analog Version = Analog stick 1 is Steering, Analog stick 2(right side) is Accel(its a little sensitive). L and R pad(they both do the same) are brakes. select=coin, start= start, A= turbo, B = view, Y= handbrake, X= hazzards, LB and RB are shift up and down.
A as Accel version = Analog stick 1 steering and A button is Accel (much more natural feel). Every other button is the same as version 1 except X now equals both hazzards and turbo (i ran out of buttons)
Z trigger as Accel= Analog stick 1 steering and Z triggers(either one) is Accel and A button is brake. very other button is the same as version 1 except X now equals both hazzards and turbo (i ran out of buttons)
incase you wondering why I dont do L trigger brake and R trigger accel is because they are the same axis.
Note: the steering wheel does not work in the menus, use shiftup/down to navigate
IMPORTANT NOTES: Accel and brake cannot be on the same axis.
If you steering wheel is not working in the menus, use shift up/down for navigation.
