F1 2016 Modding Questions Thread

[Ondre2K16]

For example to change McLaren performance:
Go to asset_groups\f1_2016_vehicle_package\teams\mclaren\wep
Open mclaren.erp with Ego Erp Archiver
Under XML files there should be a mclaren.vtf
Go to XML files -> export and save it
You can edit the file with Notepad++
Some examples of things you can change:
* FuelECU - FuelBurnScale, FuelPowerScale ... ie. FuelPowerScale can be used similarly to engine_power_scale used in the previous games' ctf files. I haven't tried FuelBurnScale at 0.0, but 0.1 even works with FuelPowerScale greater than 1.25. Fun stuff if you want ridiculous wheelspin (FPS=2.0) or more severe variation through the fuel mixes, etc.
* BrakeECU - BrakeFront, BrakeRear
* Chassis - Mass
* Tyre (Front, Rear) - MinGrip, MaxGrip, GripMultiplier
* Engine, FuelTank, FuelECU, BrakeECU, Chassis, Steering, CoreAero, Differential, Brake, Tyre, Suspension, Wheel, etc
You can also copy and paste whats in the mercedes file to the other cars to make them quicker.

Which values would you guys say I'd need to change which would make the greatest difference?

I would look at the mod 'Not Created Equal' and see whats been done there and base it off that.

Has anyone found a way to switch head models? With chassis switches possible might be possible to switch those too. I tried editing the incardriver xml to switch it but it didn't work

Hi everytime i try to use ego language editor and click the find tap nothing shows up, help me please.

Turns out it's much simpler than I thought - I'll make a proper guide when I have the time:
For this example I'm putting a TR chassis on a mclaren:
1. Edit the TR paint and decal file
2. Overwrite the Mclaren paint and decal file with the TR one.
3. Export mclaren-carmodel.layer from pkg tab (Thanks to @arvaimate00 for finding it's this file!)
4. Open the TR.erp and export torrorosso-carmodel.layer
5. -I'm using http://www.jsoneditoronline.org/ to edit these .json files- change mclaren-carmodel.layer to look like this picture View attachment 168327
6. Overwrite mclaren-carmodel.layer with this new edited .json
7. Save the .erp

The only issue is that the animations still do not match some :/ if you put the Mercedes chassis on the Ferrari, The hands are way off same if you put the toro rosso on it :/

I did look at somr incardriver pkg files. Maybe just changing those could work.

Yes when i cracked the chassis changes 2 weeks ago I checked them but the game crashes when you change even one value to it ;(

damn. I don't really see a huge problem with it. Let's just hope under new ownership FOM allows codemasters to make the cars nicely moddable

Has anyone already tried to change the 2016 models with the 2015/2014 models?

Does anyone have a dds of some Vandoorne helmet? I've tried to get one out of the mods already here but my erp archiver just says mismatched mipmaps (even if I put the mipmap there). I also attempted to just export the mipmap but it didn't work either. If someone could help me out it'd be very much appreciated!

any way you could think of . Brush tool, paint bucket, quick command (alt+backspace/ctrl+backspace depending on your colors)

 

[PR3D4TOR]
