Are you going to be doing the Shadow DN3 livery for this car? You probably know this already but the Retro V8 is an exact copy of the Shadow DN3, the livery is way easier also. Great work as always though!

Thank you for your work. Just a small suggestion: the tyrrell should be linked to the Retro V8 pack, with regards to engine (Ford DFV) and general aspect of the model.

 

[wolftree]

Nice but the Ferrari skins are the wrong size so they don't work in the game.

Thanks for the update

I found a few points that could be updated:

1. Ickx is listed as Italian. He's very much Belgian.
2. Formula Retro's entries for W.Fittipaldi and Evans don't match up with liveries.
3. The Jochen Mass livery features a white Texaco logo with the Impact font, but the actual car used something that looks like Eurostile (or, in any case, the same as the black logo on E.Fittipaldi's car).
4. Bob Evans' custom AI lists him as John Watson under "name".

Thanks so much for the feedback, really appreciated

1) File already updated, in next release icks nationality will be the right one.
2) Wilson Fittipaldi and Bob Evans's liveries are planned for the next update, based on the 2 remaining brabhams. I already put the entries in the AI file, but the liveries are still original reiza.
3) According to the book I'm using as reference (Formula 1 Car by Car 1970-79 by Peter Higham), Jochen Mass in 1975 used a white texaco-marlboro logo while his team mate Emerson Fittipaldi had a black logo. In 1974, both cars had a black texaco-marlboro logo.
4) File already updated, it will be available in the next update.

Fantastic

For point 3, you are correct, it was a white logo (with a tiny black outline); it's just not the same typography. I'm just being really really pedantic and precise here

Here is Maas in 1975:

Here is yours:

It's just the font that's different.

You're using:

The Texaco logo looks more akin to Eurostile, but probably reversing the color from the black logo is the best way to get the most accurate depiction.

Firstly, thank you so much for such a wonderful mod, it is amazing! Quick question - bit confused, just did a race and narrowly beat James Hunt (!) but which car is his in the livery select screen?

It's a mistake in the AI file, it should be Dave Charlton from Scuderia Scribante, but it's listed as James Hunt.
Fix is arriving with the next update.

 

[gringohairpiece]

HI, really impressed with the work you have done on these. Any news on when the last two skins will be completed?

 

[ianez]

ianez updated [F-Retro Gen 1] Formula 1 1975 complete skin pack with AI skills and names with a new update entry:

Copersucar & Stanley BRM added!

Some fixes with drivers names and 2 more skins added based on the Brabham model (Copersucar Fittipaldi and Stanley-BRM).

Now all the original AMS2 skins have been replaced with F1 1975 historic liveries, hope you enjoy!

Is there a Team Hesketh to be included with James Hunt?

If reiza adds more slots to the retro gen 1 class, Team Hesketh will be included along with all the other teams that are still missing: Harald Ertl, Harry Stiller Racing, Team Surtees, Maki Engineering, Lyncar Engineering, Lexington Racing.
1975 was an incredible season, with so many different teams and cars, so I had to make some selection.

Like your effort, but as the game does not even offer enough garage spots on many historic tracks (i. e.: Kyalami, Spielberg) for the number of cars which is already part of this class, we would have even more cars we would not see on track. And the historic layouts fit best to these old F1 cars.
This issue has been posted several times in the official forum. There are many tracks we can not use for championship mode because of the missing pit spots for the cars of a certain class.
But this of course is not your fault.

Realising I'm late to the party but I have an issue where the Ferrari skins are not showing. All others present and correct. I can see the skin when driving from sidepod view, but external and replay cameras just show a blank red car, whether I'm driving it or the AI. I've tried reinstalling and anything I can think of but no luck. Anyone had this issue? Or know what's likely to be causing it?
