WRC8 WRC 8 Mods v11.0 = DRIVERS EDITION = (EPIC STORE)

[paokkerkir]

Hi and thank you for your mod.
Can you do anything about the UI with triple screens? It seems off, you cannot see all the stages in the edges, and it behaves strangely. WRC9.

I am now working on the game everyday after work.
Many things have changed in the game but thankfully most of my WRC 8 Mods only require a simple fix to get them working in WRC 9

WRC9 Mods - Work in progress screen shots:

Hud mods:
Progress bar more transparent and better colours, removed much of the white elements
Moved the red centred difference timer to the top of the screen
Lowered the pace notes position (selectable size large and small)
Coloured the respawn icons etc to WRC9 orange
Coloured the 3 2 1 go letters to red amber green
Changed the colours of the tacho and the damage circle and more transparent
Moved the tacho and damage circle more to the centre of the screen and customised them, less white elements, more transparent, red tacho needle, red turbo boost level, removed the white sweep behind the tacho needle, removed the white circle around the damage circle.

I find that there is to much full white hud items when in game, horrible on the eyes at night.

Dashboard Mod:
Bigger brighter shift lights

Shader mods:
More subtle windscreen reflections
Realistic rain drops on windscreen
Better reflections on the wet road surface
And more...

I would like to know if in the next mod we can adjust the dust on the body?Just like snow.
I find the dust far too much on the car.....

What software do you use to edit the files?Thanks

Great idea! I will try to make this mod ready for v1.0 release, with selectable dirt levels

I use, Ghidra to reverse engineer the exe file, 3DMigoto to mod shaders, Notepad++ to edit config files and shader files, Innosetup for the installer

 

[AgentHeX 0007]

Hello ! Can you include a mod (WRC 9) for adjusting the position ,Horizontal,Vertical and Size “Move Mechanical Fail (Left) and RPM (Right) “ my idea is put this 2 side by side in the Center Down of screen, and change the Size (Smaller or Bigger) , you get the idea….Thank You For The Amazing Work !

That is the first new mod for WRC 9 I worked on, see screenshots above.

Should I make them smaller you think? both exactly side by side, as in nearly touching?

Hi and thank you for your mod.

When I get time I will set up triple screens and take a look, can you post a mobile phone photo of the problems with triple screen

@AgentHeX 0007 Yes, some things changed... Its possible to do the Extended Camera Adjustment only with the proper files (without instaling all the mod)? If yes can you send me the files or put to download?

I'm so used to mod cameras that I'm going crazy !

Thanks for all the work, really appreciate it!

It is not possible to only have the modded camera files. The game files need to be extracted.

@AgentHeX 0007 , can we already install it to WRC 9?

I have a Frex Sinconmotion cockpit moved by Lince software but unfortunately WRC 8 and 9 works only with D-Box. But if the game send the informations to a D-Box, why not to another software? Should be possible do something?
The same happens with Simvibe. In this case I'm starting to think to try with audio only but is a pity.

In any case first of all I have to understand why after only one hour my eyes are so tired despite with other games, DR 2 first, I can play for hours without problems. It happened with WRC 8 too.

Thank you

AgentHexX 0007, Thank you for the feedback, in my opinion ,I think as in nearly touching will be better, and maybe a little bit smaller (….) I only use Audio Pacenotes, but “Lowered the pace notes position (selectable size large and small) its a good idea too and many others you mentioned….one more time, Thanks!

Hi AgentHex, hope you are doing good ! It has been a long time...
Let's hope the same mod for WRC9...

 

[Stephen Bailey]

Will the mod allow us to edit certain text files again this year? Being able to edit individual AI driver ability last year really saved the single-player experience for me. Would be great if that's possible again.

The quality is terrible but you can see, that I reach the end with the keyboard but UI does not move. And when I go back and forth it kinda goes that way but not really. The mouse is in wrong positions, the game has trouble handling triples in the menu.

 

[toweleeie]

its a long shot this..... and i may have asked before on WRC8 mod...... but can the sound banks be changed independent of the view used? id like to use dash cam with the sounds from behind the car...... does that make sense? hahaahahahaa

I have a similar problem with Ultra wide 49" screen

Hey guys! I'm back also after a vacation of 5 months.
AgentHex, good job as usual! I will be happy to use your mod as soon as possible. Even if WRC 9 is really better than the 8,the game can be better with mods.

 

[AgentHeX 0007]

Welcome back!

After looking at the default physics files it would seem the developers followed us by now adding 20 points to the torque curves (Ced mod) and increasing the angular velocity to be the same as my Sim+ Pro mod giving the cars a much better feeling of weight when sliding through corners.

I also spotted parts of the shader code where they seem to have used values from my mods.
