F1 2014 - Realistic Damage Mod - by Cromiell - Player/AI damage enhancer

Greetings Everyone!

Last year I realised my Realistic Damage Mod for F1 2013 and it met with a lot of appreciation and warm welcome from your community. This year I'm bringing you the same modification for F1 2014. Nothing really changed compared to last year so everything will work the same way. Heck, as for me - F1 2014 is just F1 2013 with small v2 behind the name but well... I'm not here to judge anyone. Hope that next year brings something better.

INFORMATIONS:
_______________________________________________________________

F1 2014 Realistic Damage Mod will enhance your damage configuration. This means it will be much easier/harder (depending on your chosen settings) to damage your and/or AI car.

NOTE: BACK UP YOUR loose_parts_settings.xml BEFORE REPLACING the files.

IMPORTANT: Changing damage settings will make you unable to play Multiplayer. TO BE ABLE TO PLAY MULTIPLAYER USE THE FILE FROM "ORIGINAL DAMAGE" FOLDER!

HOW TO USE:
_______________________________________________________________

1. Unpack the .rar archive.
2. Choose which damage settings should be changed to higher/lower values. There are 3 configs:

- Player [only]
- AI [only]
- Player & AI [both]

3. Choose your desired sensitivity:

- 1x (Very Small)
- 2x (Small)
- 3x (Medium)
- 4x (High)
- 5x (Very Realistic)
- 6x (Hardcore)

[The same as last year I recommend it to be set between 4x/5x but of course, feel free to use what you like the most]

4. Copy your desired loose_parts_settings.xml file to F1 2014 main game folder. Click YES to replace.
5. Play the game and ENJOY!

OTHER INFORMATIONS AND UPDATES:
_______________________________________________________________

~~ 2014/10/18 - According to huge number of questions and messages I received last year I'd like to make a statement than of course I allow you to make videos and other medias in which you include or describe my Realistic Damage Mod. Just drop a link to download or information what you used so more people can experience the game in a better way.
Also, if you are an owner of other modification (for example Safety Car Mod we had last year which was connected with my Realistic Damage Mod), then feel free to drop me a private message on the forums. There is an option I could add my mod to your resources if they are good quality.

I wanted to use that

Cromiell · Oct 19, 2014

Yes, it was missing. Updated, thank you.

Used x4 for player & AI at the Austrian GP and only 10 cars finished the race. Think I'll try the medium one!

Perhaps use only player. AI are stupid with this mod

Cromiell · Oct 19, 2014

Also, bear in mind that using flashbacks will cause AI to crash most of times (it's how the game ~~doesn't~~ works)

Yeah that happened on 13 as well. Use a flashback and the car ahead will go straight off at a corner.

I only will remain having that on in case I get a stupid penalty for no reason

(I heard on 2014 the pen system is really f**ked up..)

From what I've seen, the penalty system was adjusted this year so you can make no contact with anyone. You gotta have a clean drive or else you'll have a ton of penalties up your throat.

It's been one and a half day and F1 2014 Realistic Damage Mod has already reached over 1,000 downloads. Currently it is the 3rd most downloaded mod for F1 2014. Thank you for enjoying my release. It shows how important the damage system is for all of the fans. I can only hope next gen forces Codies to work out something fresh and new.

No, thank you for creating such a wonderful mod

Mod adds greater intensity to the game thanks! However, I had to switch from realistic to very high for both player and AI as a race had over 10 cars retire. XD Might switch the AI damage to high as some cars run into the back of back markers, but it doesn't happen everytime so I can live with that. It's up to the AI's intelligence to get round them.

The results of a 39 Lap Race in Monaco (Career)

Incl. 4 Safety Cars! (But no red flag for whatever reasons)

let me guess, that's hardcore damage on both player and AI cars

Turn it off for this GP only, AI are very very stupid

Or use only player damage like I do
