Flipdo3, RealityChecked & Eric K.

I am very happy to finally present this 1996 skinpack for the excellent CART Extreme mod by Patrick Giranthon & Co.

This project has been ongoing since February 2019, my own lack of commitment adding in a casual 11 month gap to progress. It features 30 cars, all accurate to certain races of the 1996 season, as well as talent files and very slight performance changes to aid balance.

Every livery has been either scratch made or repainted from an original. Only some helmets are retained from the 1998 Mod.

That being said, a separate series file is included to separate 1998 and 1996 fields. The talent folder is also separate to allow for modifications without affecting the original mod.

Special Thanks to:
lobisomem (MCi assets from their 1999 pack)
Patrick Giranthon & Gringo
iDT Simulations
RealityChecked (research help, PacWest & Payton/Coyne Matsushita painter)
Eric K. (Brix-Comptech Johnstone painter)

for their help, permissions or assets for this project.

The CART Extreme mod is required for this pack to work.
Enjoy!

Tried these out yesterday. Excellent skins.
Second to none, if you like quality this is the skinpack to have. Can't be recommended enough!
Pruett is on Goodyears
I tried to rectify that by myself but it seems impossible to change tire graphics for Lolas. All lolas are always on Goodyears and have yellow cockpits no matter what you do. It irks me. I would really like to rectify it.
Does anyone have a suggestion?
Thank you
I love throwback Indy Cars, and this skinpack doesn't disappoint. I am impressed on how a lot of details and work went into this mod. And to the author Flipdo3, I would love to see a continuation of this. Perhaps a 1997 PPG Indy Car World Series Skinpack? Or Maybe go more old school and adopted skins from the early 90s to about 1995? Just something to think about. But bringing back the PPG Indy Car nostalgia is awesome. Keep up the great work, Flipdo3, and I hope to hear back from you soon.
Tudo que eu sempre esperei !! precisamente a temporada de 96, a melhor pra mim! Muito Obrigado!
Amazing skins for an amazing MOD. 99 was a GREAT season too... just saying!
Excellent mod/skin pack! I don't have Automobilista to be honest but I started an rFactor IndyCar/CART career two years ago with the 1994 season and was painting the 1996 season myself based on the IndyCar 1995 mod (I had to as there never has been created a IndyCar/CART 1996 mod for that sim). But motivation issues made me stop the work when I nearly reached the half way point of the field... Then I saw this release was based on CART Extreme (just CART Factor 1998 for those who play rFactor), so yeah... I've immediately converted this to rFactor and will be able to resume my career. Thank you so much, this is a beauty! Seriously, this feels like a present. Much, much thanks for what I call a piece of art!
Great pack ! :) CART Precision Racing is back !

Same issue as Gavkiwi though. For example, Team Rahal does not load properly because I don't have this file in my CART Extreme mod : Upgrades=Reynard98forhon_upgrades.ini

I see, thank you. I will add the file later today in an update - hopefully it's the only one needed
Awesome work! Been waiting for this for ages, loved lapping Mid Ohio with it last night. Any chance of a 1997 skinset?

I am tempting myself into doing 1996 indy lights for another chassis atm so it's unlikely, but who knows with the current events going on. thanks for the review!
Man oh man oh man...
THIS has been something that I've been asking from even before we have CART Extreme mod. I mean...
just look at my avatar and you'll understand all. my favorite childhood game, favorite indy time. thank you so much, really.
I'm the guy who have made ALL OFFICIAL ONBOARD cams for that mod and I think you have done a really great job ! maybe if you have asked for some help I could share some load with you.
thank you once again, maybe I'll write something more in discussion section. :)
A really great work!
Amazing Work! As a huge fan of 90s IndyCar, this is perfect during this time of isolation. Very well done, and thank you, sir.
very nice mod, great skins and helmets

there is an issue with the:

Upgrades=Reynard98_upgrades.ini

i've had to replace that line above in the .ini file for some of the reynard teams, for the car skins to load properly

otherwise it shows a TEMP car
cheers

Are you sure this is not on your end? I have just deleted and reinstalled CART Extreme and then my mod, and checked each Reynard to see if i could reproduce the problem and it's working fine. If you're certain it's not on your end, would you mind telling me which teams it is you're having an issue with? Thanks
