the work you have done in this mod is just excellent.. i wanted to ask you that have you provided the tracks file of 2016 as well in any of these versions or you are working on it at the moment ?

Thanks for the excellent review. Per RaceDepartment rules and adhering to the "Fair Use" Copyright infringement policy, we can NOT provide any code/tracks/car models that where not present in the original F1-2013 Game License (that you purchased).
So any NEW Tracks on this MOD will be "Emulated" using the ones provided on the Game. We are looking into this issue and have found an awesome solution for it....we just need to decide if it is going to be an ADD-ON to this MOD or if we are going to include it in the next download (It´s a BIG file).

Thanks for the review Yoshi1821. Appreciate the feedback. As I said... almost done with updates. This MOD was to be ONLY a Database MOD that Updated F1-2013 to 2016 Season, No Graphics No Tweeks...NADA. But then since I already did the names, I did the Logos, since I did the Logos, lets do a Car Livery, since...... DAMM Now I have Ideas for MOD v1.4!!! LOL. This IS a great comunity, Thanks for the support. Keep in touch.

Thanks for the review. Sorry to take so much time to answer... but got busy from work. Almost done with updates finishing MANOR skin and Testing, I already have the 21 Tracks for 2016 and the correct helmets and Driver suits.... GP MODE & CAREER MODE are also Updated. Max is now on RedBull and Daniil was demoted to Toro Rosso (or was promoted??). I will try to release v1.3 this next week. Keep in touch.

Very good mod! Only "problem" that I have is that somehow Haryanto is always in Q3 when playing career. In race he usually drops out of top 10, but still bit unrealistic I think. And theres invincible person driving Red Bulls?

I have a problem that the AI cars all seem to have a massive straight line speed performance over me. I tried in Mercedes, Ferrari, Haas and Renault and every time I was being completely destroyed on the straights by cars in a lower 'tier'.

For the rest it looks great, would be nice to know if there's a fix for this or if it's meant to be like that.

Thanks and great work on the mod, mate!

Samuele Vimercati, thanks for the review. No it´s NOT meant to be like that...LOL. In the original CodeMasters AI, all you had to do was keep the apex, hold the race line and you could win a race just blocking everyone behind you. I hated that. So I started designing a AI that could be more aggressive... Brake late... Try to take you out... MOD v1.4 has finally reached a balance between playable game and giving you a challenge.
Please, give it a try.... and let us know what you think.

If you added the Austria track I'd give you 5 stars!

Thanks for the review. By RaceDepartment policy we are NOT allowed to bring Coded Files from one game into another since this violates the "Fair Use" Copyright infringement and we could get banned (Deleted) from this site. That is why we made the 2016 Season Cars using ONLY F1-2013 wireframes and materials.
Maybe we can "Emulate" or substitute one track for another...If we can get around this Track limitations I will try to import Sochi, Hockenheim, Mexico, Spielberg and Baku (and Valencia from F1-2012)....;)

First of all, a very good mod and I really enjoy it.
However, I have found a few flaws playing this update since it came out.
First, the game is not very difficult. I normally play the expert difficulty with a mid table team like Force India and struggle to score points. But, after the update, I could easily qualify in the top three, just tenths behind the pole-sitter. In the race it only took a couple of laps before I was in the lead of the race. When I tried to figure out why the AI suddenly dropped in performance, I noticed that the overshot a lot of the corners and broke way to late, often missing their braking point. This made them lose a lot of time. If I was to guess, maybe this happens because of the increase of power to the cars.
Secondly, the different teams often finish in unrealistic position. Most notably, the Manors often get to Q2, and the mclarens often finish races in top 5. The Ferraris seem to outperform the Mercedes. I dont think this is a huge issue, and again, if I were to guess, I think it is the increase of power that causes this issue (for example, the Manors are fast in a straight line and gains massively in the game because of the increase of power). I have to mention that I run the game with the realistic damage mod as well, but I have driven quite a lot of races in career mode, so I dont think it is the realistic damage mod that causes this. Finally, some names in the e-mails in career mode are still the names from 2013, not a big issue of course and when the mechanic speaks under the race, he often uses names from 2013 (for example Paul di Resta instead of Max Veerstappen). I do not know if you can fix this (maybe use soundfiles from newer games, but again, not a big issue.

There are the issues I have found with this amazing mod during the months that I have player it for. I am a huge fan of the SKYFALL mod and I hope you will continue working on it untill f1 2016 comes out.
Thank You Skyfall

Thanks for the post Humpaa;
The only advice I can give you is to check that you download version 1.4 (or latest version) and follow the correct file installation. Check that your F1-2013 game copy is working.

There is a very good "How To" Guide created by Graham Laing.
I hope that it helps you clarify any doubts. Follow this link:

Remember to BACK-UP your game install (The guide will also show you how), and remember to always use a original game install.

Hey mate,

I am trying to install the mod but when I paste the files and I try to run the game the game crashes and can't play. I don't know if it is because I play on a Mac but it would be awesome if you could look into it.

Thanks

Hi there, Xaboeltito;

I don´t have a lot of knowledge on MAC but the Steam PC version has quite a similar file structure than the MAC version.

There is a very good "How To" Guide created by Graham Laing I hope that it helps you clarify any doubts. This link:

http://www.racedepartment.com/threads/how-to-install-a-mod.73614/

Remember to BACK-UP your game install (The guide will also show you how), and use a original game install.

Once you know where the install folder of the game is in your operating system, the folder layout in the install folder is exactly the same as a PC. So just follow the same instruction as the PC when installing.

This MOD is in a 7z (zip file), so you should unpack or decompress the contents into a NEW folder of your choice. You can then copy these files directly into your F1-2013 install. This is just in case you have the path wrong, it's better to unpack to a temporary folder.

Once you have unpacked the archive, copy the folders that are in your mod into your F1 2012 install folder, and overwrite any existing files. This is why you should back up the original folders before installing any mods.

For example, if you have unpacked, and the archive has given you a 'cars' folder and a 'characters' folder. Then copy those 2 folders into your F1-2013 install folder.

Good luck. Hope this helps.

Regards, SKYFALL
