Intro
Full my team package for a fantasy Vaillante F1 Team, based on the Michel Vaillant comic series created by Jean Graton. The team has a strong French focus, with most of the sponsors coming hailing from that country. Key partner in this project is the independent Croatian manufacturer Rimac, which specializes in electric sports cars, drivetrains and batteries. Also involved is its newly acquired subsidiary Bugatti, the famous French hypercar manufacturer. The hope is that their technical prowess, combined with Vaillante's racing pedigree, will allow them to challenge the big manufacturer teams within a couple of years and win an F1 championship.
Content
Mod contains the following textures for use in my team and timetrial
- Car livery model Foudre-1 (Lightning)
- Two driver suits (blue main + white alternate)
- Two driver helmets for driver/owner Michel Vaillant (Acqua matte + Acqua chrome)
- Garage crew + interiors
- Pitcrew + gantry/lights
- Other (umbrella, rainjacket, car monitor stand, etc.)
Installation
Mod installation steps are:
- Copy/paste files to your F1 installation folder and overwrite any files
- Open the in-game customization tab
- Remove all sponsor logos from your default car livery
- Set the transparent background + emblem as your team logo
- Apply the car livery and your preferred driver suit/helmet/gloves
- Finished!
**With respect to step 3 please note that if you cannot remove the sponsor logos if you have the custom car livery applied. Apply any of the default liveries to remove the sponsor logos first.
***Helmets and driver suits will overwrite the Aiden Jackson and Casper Ackermann liveries in your game. The car livery will overwrite the 'deluxe' livery.
