I am currently creating a mod that converts all the modern F1 cars into v10 hybrids.
The imaginary scenario is: due to a lack of fan support and lack of immersion over the v6 hybrid era, the FIA has re-introduced v10 motors into f1 to regain fan support with the platform essentially being a "reliable" and "eco-friendly" f2004 motor offshoot (I have used someones v10 sounds pack and I believe that the 4 motor manufacturers have different sounding motors) and the gearbox has been moved back to a 7 speed in order to let the car rev out to 18,800 rpm (f2004 box).
To make it realistic I have made individual profiles for each team, meaning that every team will maintain their own aero, grip, etc, and just the motors, gearboxes, and half of the Fuel Tank values are shared
I am currently in the process of testing the kit in career mode and noticing that the motor and its parts are all wearing out quite quickly (3-5% every practice test, 30-40% every race). If anyone can point me in the right direction for what else I might need to move over from the f2004 to help the parts last longer, or even what values I should make them to make the v10s "reliable" (but realistic) please let me know.
I already have a V1 completed
Known issues:
