Is there any way to change default times for automatic gearbox? I mean gaps between individual gears.

This Can be Achieved with the RYDER25 CTF Editor,
The gear box is about half way down, I could make a Guide to show you Guys if you wish.

Yes, it can be very helpful mate.

//EDIT: If it is from 170 line in EGO CTF Editor, I think I solved it myself.

I Just made a Quick Guide The video is in the Guides Section.
At least people now can just watch these Quick Guides its faster than looking on the Forums

Hello, I tried to change the fields to adjust the speed of AI in qualifying because AI is too fast in race compared on Q3.
I edit these fields with last Ryder Editor for F1 2013:
easy_dry_lap_time_adjustment
easy_wet_lap_time_adjustment
hard_dry_lap_time_adjustment
hard_wet_lap_time_adjustment
in track_model.
By setting these fields , for example . with " -0.5 " , the AI of F1 2012 was faster in qualifying than half a second on Q1, Q2 and Q3.
Now changing these values with F1 2013 I haven't see any difference in the qualification. Why?
Instead, the total number of laps I was able to change them.
Does anyone have any thoughts on this or if there are other changes to be edited to change at will the speed of AI in qualifying, ...and the difficulty of legend or expert?
Is F1 2013 protected and activated the restrictions do not change the parameters for the AI? (Track_model, track_difficulties, AI_driver..).
There are no changes if I apply changes to the values of these fields.
Someone was able to change the values of the speed of AI with also reflected in the race?
Thanks

What bad news!

Are you sure?

@compiler

There is a F1 2013 modding forum with a modding questions sticky thread in it.

http://www.racedepartment.com/forum/threads/modding-questions-thread.68653/unread

Please post this sort of stuff in there.

I am merging this thread into the above thread.

Hello! I'm searching for a way to resolve a problem: i'm using a steering-wheel without pedals but pressing a button to accelerate the result is that the throttle is so sudden and the car spins. Is there a way to make throttle more gradual (using buttons and not pedals)? Or a way to increase the traction control to avoid this loss of control?

I made the ingame settings using a 0% for throttle saturation but is not enough....i'm looking for "some internal file" modification to reach an improvement.

Thank you.

I think it no longer uses track_difficulties from the database. Try changing track_difficulties from the XML files in folder :\\F1 2013\tracks\difficulties

I'm guessing the file ai_track_difficulties.xml affects all eras. Maybe you can adjust each era by editing the file in their respective folder. I have not tested it yet. Please let us know if it works.

As for the other parameters, I have no idea.

Tom · Oct 7, 2013

So is it actually possible to use 2012 helmets? I.e. disable the fin or whatever they added.

Wrong place to ask.

All questions regarding mods go here.

It really isn't that hard to find.

Plus when you do ask a question in future, please don't use the resource section, I actually opened this up thnking it was a mod.

Yes without fin

To a degree yes. Unfortunately I still haven't found the off switch for the fins in the new database.......another option might just be to have the rear fins done in a carbon effect or something...although that wouldn't look too great.

The d3d11.dll used with f1_2012.exe will have to be sort of re-compiled in order to "chain-in" (if you will) the new f1_2013.exe (if it is how it's done). Experienced DX programmers (other than myself) should have a solution soon, let's hope.

I do not know where the Career Helmets are without looking, But You should be able to swap the data over manually without going into the Database,
Throw me a Link to where the information is stored and ill mod the Helmet=s

I'm sorry but I don't understand.
