Hello guys,
I would like to share with you, not a mod, but an application to help you on modding now that the game have workshop support.
Basically, the application reads the database base files that come with unitypackage provided (On application is on "Files" folder), transform them into a "table" that can be edited and saved on a new file that can be saved directly into Modding Folder.
At the moment, i don't know how to create somethings like championships so i only tested it creating Drivers and Mechanics but you can edit every database file provided. If anyone knows how i can make the application better i would appreciated the suggestions!
- Open external .txt files so you can edit your previous changes
- "Search" possibility. Ctrl + Alt + S or "Database/Search" on the menu. Just need to have the database file that you want to search opened, select where to search, what must contain and click on "Search" button. If want to edit or select that row after search, double click on it and it will be selected on main Form.
- "Add rows from external file" option (Ctrl + A) where you can load data from external file and copy the selected rows into the local database file making your previous changes easy to paste into the new database file.
NOTE: Some of you may have different needs and/or want some feature implemented to make your modding job easier. If so, send me an PM to see what i can do. Same if you find bugs!
How it works:
After opening the application:
1 - Choose what you want to edit (e.g "Drivers")
2 - Edit or Add information on the table
3 - Save info with the "Save File" button on the bottom (You can save anywhere but to test the changes, the file must be on "Modding\Databases" Folder of your Motorsport Folder, e.g C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Motorsport Manager\MM_Data\Modding\Databases). When app asks if you want to override the base file is to keep the changes the you made because you may have changed something that you just want to test and don't want to keep those changes.
4 - On Game, start a new carrer and when choosing race length, currency, etc... you will see on the top right corner a slider saying "Test My Mods". Activate it and you can test the changes you have made
I leave you with some images.
Have fun!
