EDIT: Saturday 3rd March. Version 3 released. Includes Petrov.
EDIT: Sunday 11th March. Optional 20 race season pack added.
Hi. I've updated pretty much everything I can think of to 2012 season, with exception of helmets.
I've updated the following:
Driver names
Driver stats
Driver nationalities
Driver numbers
Driver questions
Driver birthday
Driver uniforms
Team names
Team stats
Team motorhomes
Caterham garage
Caterham garage loading screen
Caterham team uniforms
Caterham brakeboard
Caterham steering wheel
Caterham logo
Catherham trucks
Caterham paddock
Cars: I've not updated car liveries except for the driver name and car number.
So this HAS been changed on car livery.
In the case of Catherham, I have not changed the livery.
Main menu welcome screen
Main menu driver selection graphics
Main menu driver selection flags
Main menu driver selection car numbers
Race dates
Track selection menus
Track introduction graphics
Track records
Track stats
Hemets: I not updated helmets, but where there are driver team order swaps (like in Mclaren), car numbers, helmets etc are corrected.
Where there are new drivers, they get their predecessors helmet.
I think that's it.
Caterham features a lot because of the removal of the lotus logo and replacement with the new Caterham logo.
Other team logos are close enough for me, so I've not bothered updating them, but team names have been updated.
Some screenies:
Mod comes in four options:
2011 team order (pre patch)
2012 team order (pre patch)
2011 team order (patch 1.2)
2012 team order (patch 1.2)
Includes original flow.bin.
Where patching to true 2012 order, your current save game may be considered corrupt, and you may be forced to restart your career.
You can patch your existing game by using the 2011 team order patch, and it should be ok.
This will result in the team/driver selection menu not being shown in logical 2012 car number order and garage locations on track being in the same order as 2011.
For example, Williams will be in garage 6 when they really ought to be in garage 9 for 2012, Di Resta will be in driver two location in his garage, etc. But otherwise everything else is fine.
Here's a screenie showing the difference between 2011 and 2012 team order:
As an optional extra, I have added Track graphics for the following tracks:
Singapore
Brazil
Suzuka
Korea
Delhi
Monaco (new to v2.0)
Obvious existing signage around a track that had the old F1 2011 logo has been replaced by F1 2012 logo.
If you see any other obvious F1 2011 logos to change, please let me know.
I haven't spotted any obvious F1 2011 logos in other tracks.
Some more screenies:
.
As an additional optional extra, I have added a 20 race season pack.
YOU MUST INSTALL REDDVERS BAHRAIN AND AUSTIN TEXAS MOD FIRST.
This gives you 20 races in the season instead of only 19. Instanbul is replaced with Reddvers Bahrain graphical update, and Austin Texas is added to the season (as Korea with Reddvers Austin Texas graphical update). This requires you to rename a track folder before playing Korea or Austin. Instructions for this are provided.
Well, that's it really.
