Current version : 1.3.2 (28/02/2017) -- Please read instructions and FAQ below before posting.

This mod is composed of a Base and a Layer. You need both in order to have the full mod.

1. Go to the MM Community Hub in your steam client.

4. Find the "Layer" mod and click it.

5. Click on the subscribe button.

6. Make sure the mod is active in your in-game workshop.

You're done.

You can proceed the same way for my other mods you found on step 4.

BASE MOD INSTALL INSTRUCTIONS (WINDOWS)

Spoiler: Click to view Install Instructions

1. Download PART1 and PART2 on your computer. Both parts are necessary.
2. Right-click MM 2016 Mod 1.x.x.part1.rar and uncompress it.
3. Part 2 will be uncompressed automatically. You should now have a folder MM_Data with the installer right next to it.
4. Launch the installer and follow instructions.

If the installer does not work for you, simply copy/paste the MM_Data folder into your Motorsport Manager folder.

BASE MOD INSTALL INSTRUCTIONS (MAC) - Thanks to Mr Peugeot and Alon2o

1. • Download PART1 and PART2. Both parts are necessary.
     
   • Create a folder anywhere and put both mod files in this new folder
     
   • Open Part_1 of the .rar file with an extractor (I use The Unarchiver but I’m assuming any upzip program will work)

FAQ:

- After I installed the mod, the drivers, teams and staff are fake and all logos are original ones.
You didn't activate the mod "layer" on the Workshop. Please do so as stated above.
- My game crashes during or after launch / I get a black screen then nothing.
Make sure you run the last version of the game on steam.
Go to Steam then right click on Motorsport Manager>Properties>Local Files>Verify integrity of game cache. This will synchronize your game to server version which is always the last version available.
- I don't see the car liveries. Rest is working fine.
Liveries do not work in 2d Mode. Turn on 3d mode.
- How can I change logos/team names/... myself?
Download Unity Assets Bundle Extractor and open resources.assets with it. Extract textures or textassets with the "plugin" button on the left. Modify things and import file back using the same "plugin" button.
Logos are in logos1@1080. Practice and Quali Times are in simulationsettings.

Guys please be patient, no point releasing 2017 mod yet because F2 and GP3 drivers haven't been confirmed yet

 

[dimagico]

most of them... are:
http://www.gpupdate.net/en/line-up/254/
http://www.gpupdate.net/en/line-up/259/

its something which Enzoli was aware....when things were shaping up for 2017 mod. Its not the release date, which worrys me, but his absence for quite some time now.

 

[BrianUK]

He has only been away 12 days and half of you are having a mental breakdown. Life probably took over for a little while.

 

[Longhorn76]

ICE comes close, but I prefer F1, GP2/F2, GP3/F3

If you would just tell that to the author of ICE via Steam, he could have a chance reacting to that, since ICE is not part of the racedepartment site.

 

[KekeJohn]

Is it possible to switch off the ascent and descent rules? I do not want to see anyone driving in another series! @all

 

[Longhorn76]

@KekeJohn do you mean promotions of teams into other championships? Yes that's possible via setting promotion option in the championships.txt to "false" for series ID 0,1 and 3. If you mean drivers, no thats not possible to my knowledge.

 

[KekeJohn]

I mean the teams explicitly!

Hello Guys, I got one little question.

Im using this Mod and i followed the installation instruction. ingame the real team and driver names appear, also the sponsors are real but the tracks are not the original ones. Can you help me?

 

[KekeJohn]

Is because after the new patch only the layer mod of enzo works! The basic part, however, is no longer ...

We are all looking forward to the mod 2017 from ENZO!

Is that your answer to my question?

 

[KekeJohn]

Yes

 

[Longhorn76]

I mean the teams explicitly!

well, then did I answer your question? My post shows you how to prevent the teams from getting promoted into another series. That'S what you wanted to know or not?!

 

[KekeJohn]

Yes many thanks for it.

 

[Longhorn76]

Oh okay np, I was not sure

 

[murder]

Sorry, but my english is pretty bad and im struggeling to understand your answer completly.
so its a known bug of the enzo mod 2016 with the earliest update on motorsport manager, right?
i cant do anything against it, right? Im just wondering because everything else is working in that mod.

so then i got a next question:
When the 2017 Mod is released, is it possible for me to use this mod with my old savegame?

You're the author lol.

That's fair enough, having checked out the ICE thread on RD and looking at some of the reactions of Steam, it seems that the modder(s) have gone in a direction they thought best with the mod in regards to filling the Singleseater series for the 2017 season. There have been numerous people telling them their preference, but the modder(s) have their reasons that the way they have done it works best in their particular mod, which is totally fair enough, and credit to them for sticking to their vision.

I understand with GP3 drivers and teams up in the air for the 2017 season, so difficult and swift decisions must be made. I was just simply stating my preference and saying how this mod hit the nail on the head with regards to teams in the Singleseater series and how they were handled - granted there may have been more teams to play with for 2016.

This mod is by no means "perfect", no mod is, I had already thought of numerous ideas for this mod to heighten the sense of immersion and make the player feel like they're in the world of F1/GP2/GP3.

Mods don't have to be totally realistic, in-fact I find it better when we have the basis of a real world and then the game's systems run wild with it with emergent gameplay. I actually find it quite funny that in my play-through of this mod as turning around McLaren (they need all the help they can get atm), Mercedes & Toto Wolf completely lost the plot for the 2018 season and hired about 5 drivers before the season even began, only for them to end up with 2 main drivers from GP2 series and for Hamilton to end up driving for a struggling team in GP3. Rosberg didn't retire from racing, he went to Manor and secured 6th place for them in the 2017 season, ensuring Renault went down to GP2. I found it bizarre but fun and thats what makes this game amazing, those crazy stories and situations that would never happen in real life.

 

[MustartMatters]

I doubt the mod will come anytime soon as the devs have changed many things regarding modding, meaning he'd have to start again and again

Enzoli is alive
