SKYFALL F1 2017 Season MOD

Welcome to Formula One - 2017 Season MOD!

Hello, guys and gals; It is that time of the year again, and I am exited for what this new 2017 season can bring. New rules, New Cars (with Fins) and New Grip...meaning higher speeds.
Last year you guys made the F1 2016 SEASON MOD a huge hit in the RD Community and I am pleased and humbled by your support. Thanks!!
I still think that F1-2013 is Codemasters best F1 game engine of the series and together we can take it to the next level. I have named this new adventure the SKYFALL F1 2017 EQUINOX Mod. [Because it was born the 20th March 2017 at 20:17 minutes during the equinox].
I hope you enjoy it as much as I did making this build. I will try to update and polish it if you guys like it.

Thanks for the review, Bro. I haven´t gone back to upgrade this great MOD. I think that when I finish SKYFALL 2018 [BETA], I might do a RE-REVISION of this MOD and Finish it. Sorry, and Thanks for being a FAN of this MOD.

Please check the installation of the game. If any file is MISSING or MISPLACED the game will CRASH or keep waiting to load the missing file. [LOADING...LOADING...LOADING...]
Remember to Download the TRACKS PACK and the CARS PACK.
STEP 1: Install ONLY the GAME MOD v1.2 files and the game should run with no problems (This is the best way to know if the game is correctly installed).
STEP 2: After the game is running without any flaws, you can THEN install the TRACK PACK and then the CAR PACK.
I hope this helps.

Regards, SKYFALL.

Hi Cemuvi, and thanks for the note. Unfortunately the MOD is ONLY available in ENGLISH, so you may need to change language to ENGLISH for the MOD to work 100% with track & driver names. For now.
You can help a lot if you can send me your language_ger.lng file so I can fix the language error and make the MOD available in German (Deutsch). You will find this file in the C:\Program Files (x86)\F1 2013\language folder (or something similar to that).
Thanks in advance, SKYFALL.

Thanks for the review, Gerrit van Urk; Please check the installation of the game. Remember to Download the TRACKS PACK and the CARS PACK. This should fix the problem of getting the "Pink Panther" Force One Team.
