how can i add something to the rear wing of the ferrari without bugging it?

 

[Moshys]

set your game directory to the F1 2018 folder in the settings and it'll find the mips automatically

how do i do that?

click on settings, F1 game directory and set it, pretty simple

you can't, your best option is switching the Ferrari chassis to another one with a better rear wing UV map

Hi guys,I'm quite new here and getting into f1 2018 after my last codemasters game was f1 2011.
Anyway I would like to change the numbers on magnussen car,watching a tutorial on YouTube I managed to download and use ERP and got to the point to extract magnussen racing number shown on the car and the number I want to change it with but I'm stuck now as gimp won't open these files because they are .TIF files while in f1 2017 were .DDS for what I understand.
Any help please?
Thanks in advance

just import the number 1 in as the haas_driver_20 texture, no editing needed.
The files that EEA exports are still in DDS format, but it's sRGB formats which aren't editable in Gimp (as far as I'm aware). Photoshop with the Intel DDS plugin works though

thanks a lot for your reply,if I understood well what you mean is to export the number 1 from haas,rename it number 20 and re import it with ERP even though the number 20 file has got the number plus the driver name?

the driver name is a very small detail, if you can't edit the images it really doesn't matter much. No need for renaming it, just import the texture with EEA in the place of the driver_20

thanks,what if I want to keep the name though can that be done?
Even because with patch 1.06 now Haas got name and name abbreviation on halo too

then you need to edit the texture, which you likely can't do unless you have photoshop

I do have Photoshop but is not opening the file I don't know why It says it can open the image,is any chance you could do it for me please?

Downshift sounds are still messed up in patch 1.06, which currently leaves me with no other option but to edit the 2018 cars' engine performance parameters to increase the rev range and adjust gear ratios accordingly in order to get around this problem with pitch-shifted engine BDLs.
This poses one problem that I had back in F1 2017 and still can't figure out in F1 2018: shift lights. I've currently got the rev range to where the rev limiter is around 16500RPM with upshifts around 14500-14700RPM, however the shift lights still activate as normal. How does one go about adjusting these to activate later up the rev range?

Downloaded and installed plug in but photoshop keep saying impossible to open file as the format is not the right one

what's the exact error you get, please post a screenshot if possible. I'd guess unsuccesful plugin installation but won't say for sure now
