F1 2016 Modding Questions Thread

hello I'm new to this but I just wanted to ask how to add downloaded mods to the game itself in any way as I don't know how to put the mods on the game
This might help with car skins but every mod is different and they will usually have a read me with instructions.

Actually, I decided to do video tutorial "How to install R.C.P mod" as you ask me for that earlier this morning. That should help you and others who have this problem.

if its skin for helmets or cars you'll need EGO ERP ARCHIVER https://ryder25.itch.io/ego-erp-archiver
Open up the local files in steam>steamapps>common>f1 2016>asset groups>f1 2016 vehicle package>teams>*team*>wep>*team*.erp using the erp archiver.
once in the .erp file find the things that you want to replace e.g *team*.decal/.paint, click it and go to Resources>import if you already have a thing to replace what you want/export if you want to edit it, overwrite the .erp file and it should work
 
Yea that's fine. I would love to change the Torro Rosso's Chassy to the mercs. I am looking at the link that you sent but I am not sure which file that is that we need to change. Where is the file found in the F1 2016 directory?

F1 2016\asset_groups\f1_2016_vehicle_package\teams\toro_rosso\wep open the .erp and go to pkg files then carmodel.layer
 
You can change the Ferrari engine to a Honda engine, but then every car, which have the Ferrari engine will have the Honda engine.:( ( F1 2016 / audio / bundles )

To change the names open language_eng.lng (english) ( F1 2016 / localisation )
1. You need the Ego Language Editor to open it.
2. After you opened the file, press crtl + f
3. Search for lng_team_sau_title
4. Change the Name
5. Save the file.
Ah thank you sir! Sucks we can't just edit team engines! I appreciate your help!

That´s not true.

We can edit team engines easily.

If you want to edit the Renault engine on the Red Bull for example to be a bit stronger........

1.) Look at the default Renault Engine of the Red Bull (redbull.vtf.xml) :

<Engine>
<RevsPowerSpline numVertices="34">
<SplineElement x="0" y="0" op="=" />
<SplineElement x="70" y="2005.52197265625" op="=" />

<SplineElement x="567.999939" y="190885.609375" op="=" />

<SplineElement x="906.5044" y="433287.59375" op="=" />
<SplineElement x="950.746338" y="486216.125" op="=" />
<SplineElement x="1007.40405" y="546514.1875" op="=" />
<SplineElement x="1061.57288" y="590612.875" op="=" />
<SplineElement x="1126.83044" y="615525.5" op="=" />
<SplineElement x="1203.38672" y="626388" op="=" />
<SplineElement x="1259.88342" y="618539.5625" op="=" />
<SplineElement x="1309.10168" y="601291.875" op="=" />
<SplineElement x="1356.38477" y="583902.6875" op="=" />
<SplineElement x="1409.6422119140625" y="563697.9375" op="=" />
<SplineElement x="1466.705" y="538263.5625" op="=" />
<SplineElement x="1518.67737" y="517202.375" op="=" />
<SplineElement x="1580.99048" y="494926.5" op="=" />

2.) To make it a bit stronger you need a look to the first engine upgrade package the Renault Engine would receive in Career mode :

<Upgrade name="radUpgradeTier1Engine_lvl_1">
<Engine>
<RevsPowerSpline numVertices="34">
<SplineElement x="0" y="0" op="+" />
<SplineElement x="0" y="19.10019" op="+" />
<SplineElement x="0" y="87.01211" op="+" />
<SplineElement x="0" y="303.3285" op="+" />
<SplineElement x="0" y="662.6" op="+" />
<SplineElement x="0" y="965.9906" op="+" />
<SplineElement x="0" y="1211.783" op="+" />
<SplineElement x="0" y="1484.166" op="+" />
<SplineElement x="0" y="1817.959" op="+" />
<SplineElement x="0" y="2214.072" op="+" />
<SplineElement x="0" y="2679.331" op="+" />
<SplineElement x="0" y="3143.688" op="+" />
<SplineElement x="0" y="3646.775" op="+" />
<SplineElement x="0" y="4126.55" op="+" />
<SplineElement x="0" y="4630.631" op="+" />
<SplineElement x="0" y="5204.9" op="+" />
<SplineElement x="0" y="5624.875" op="+" />
<SplineElement x="0" y="5862.15" op="+" />
<SplineElement x="0" y="5965.6" op="+" />
<SplineElement x="0" y="5890.85" op="+" />
<SplineElement x="0" y="5726.587" op="+" />
<SplineElement x="0" y="5560.975" op="+" />
<SplineElement x="0" y="5368.55" op="+" />
<SplineElement x="0" y="5126.313" op="+" />
<SplineElement x="0" y="4925.725" op="+" />
<SplineElement x="0" y="4713.587" op="+" />

3.) Simple add the values from the first engine upgrade package to the default engine

Example :

Default Renault Engine first line : <SplineElement x="70" y="2005.52197265625" op="=" />

First Upgrade Renault Engine first line : <SplineElement x="0" y="19.10019" op="+" />

2005.52197265625 + 19.10019 = 2024.62216265625

4.) So, your first line of the default Renault Engine from Red Bull should be looks like this :

<SplineElement x="70" y="2024.62216265625" op="=" />

5.) You need the same procedure for the next 24 lines and you´´ll be done

Engine Default Values Line 2 + Engine first Upgrade Values Line 2
Engine Default Values Line 3 + Engine first Upgrade Values Line 3
.....
.....
.....
.....
.....

If you want to make the Renault Engine much more stronger use Tier 2-5 Upgrades instead.

Ah that makes sense! The other part of my question was can we swap engines, to which I believe he said no. For example: Give Sauber the Honda engine (noise) or Toro Rosso the Renault (noise).

I believe that´s not possible, you´re right. The only way i know is to delete the Ferrari engine sound file and rename the Honda engine sound file to Ferrari (Original Honda engine sound file must be still in the folder). If so, the Sauber will sounds like the McLaren but the Ferrari sounds like the McLaren, too. That´s bad.
 
Is there anything like a log file?
My game keeps crashing as soon as I crash with a Mclaren, but I changed several things and I don't know what's the issue. Asking before I have to mod everything again.
 
Last time I checked there was a little chance of changing the AI like we did in F1 2013. Is it already possible to change the behaviour of the AI and their pace?? If there is, is there someone with a guide of some sort on how to edit this database file? I already know the language file but I need this last one!

i haven't tried changing it yet but export the (teamname).vtf.xml) from EGO ERP ARCHIVER and open it into notepad++,of you dont know how some values work, just use them from another team
 
Okay I tried my first chassis swap today, the chassis swapped fine but apart from paint,decal and numbers, what else do i need to replace because the floorboard and stuff went all different colours
