F1 2017 Modding Questions Thread

[SneakyNinjaDE]

Is there now a way to edit the ERP files of the cars and at the same time save the career?

 

[Sascha Guenther]

Nope.

Hi everyone, does anyone know how can I export F1 2017 texture files please ?

 

[SimboWales]

Don`t think you can at the moment - unfortunately we are left with a rather bland game.

 

[gizmo87]

Thanx

 

[MoonCrawlerVG]

Unfortunately not

danggg well thanks for responding to my question again haha

Hi everyone, does anyone know how can I export F1 2017 texture files please ?

depending on the texture you can export using different EEA versions, 5.2 will export textures with no mipmaps and 2.0 can export any texture (not using mipmaps) so for stuff like textures which are big in the erp you can use that (like car decals)

Hi everyone, does anyone know how to change the rpms limiter of the cars?, I know how to do it on f1 2014 but now the files are pretty different

Hi all.
Long had the idea to make a different special version of the suits of different seasons of F1.
Anyone interested could you private messages, send photos or links to them. You can also send the name of the Grand Prix, year and team

If you're in to mod skins, you should've not bought the game (yet).

no patch out yet, you need to either get a new mipmap editor or get an old EEA (like 2.0) to be able to edit it. Though the game no longer saves if you have it modded so it's not exactly worth modding for now

why couldn't codemaster get the proper downshift sounds man.... such a lazy ass job....ok u give us classic cars at least get the sounds right man...

yeah last time i saw the 2015 UV layout they've made it even simpler than before. big custom changes are close to impossible. that's why i stick to AC.

i pick 2017 because of the classic cars and RB13 LOL. i've seen people extracted the model but no decals there, just paint with no logos. i want to see where's the problem lies at.

The main problem lies that you cannot save the game when you have a modified livery/car file. So all you do would be for quickraces only.

i don't mean about imported livery texture to the game. i mean this :

only paint texture that you can assign to the body material. no place for logos/decals. i want to test my theory if the body fits for 2 materials after extracted (paint and decal) but i need to see the structures of the scene/material first.

Dave Noonan have provided the solution btw.

i've finally found the issue but no fix.

common formats (3DS/FBX etc.) does not support the secondary texture maps and it's UVs. that's why when you see it on 3DsimED all textures are properly placed but when you export it, the decal lost it's mapping.

Did anyone else's language.erp file reset with update 1.7? Weird... my incardriver.erp was fine, but language.erp reset... I'll assume that they changed something within that file and that's why it's back to normal?

Yes to the last bit.
