Modular Mods - Base Files [Modular Mods Requirement] | OverTake (Formerly RaceDepartment)

Please support this modder with a small donation.

Description:

This mod is the base for my [Modular Mods] system, where the goal is to be easily able to copy & paste, add and remove mods into F1 2020 without overwriting original files or losing trace of active mods.

Requirement:

As base part of [Modular Mods], every mod that has [Modular Mods] written in the title or description must have these base files installed first.

Installation:

Copy _Modular_Mods\_ACTIVE\ and 2020_asset_groups from the F1 2020 folder into your game F1 2020 folder and overwrite the two files.
Modular mods (and only those) can then be placed into the _Modular_Mods folder, where they are only collected.
To activate a mod, move its .erp file into the \_ACTIVE\ folder.
When you are successful, you will see a new start screen.

If you do not like that modded screen, replace the start_screen.erp from \_ACTIVE\ with the smaller file from \_Modular_Mods\.
DO NOT simply delete the start_screen.erp, else your game will not load.

Removal:

Simply move any mod files from ...\_ACTIVE\ up to F1 2020\_Modular_Mods\ to disable a modular mod.
To remove the whole system, use the files from the backup folder.

Compatibility:

This mod is based on my modular system and will not conflict with any original file (only with wallpaper start screen mod, that is ok)
Any mod existing for the modular mods system will be made compatible by release already, you do not have to worry about conflicting mods (of course [no drs] will conflict with [more drs] )
ONLINE-Mode (Multiplayer) will not work for obvious reasons.

Note:

This base file will be updated over time, as new modular mods will be released. So make sure to keep this mod uptodate whenever you are using a modular mod.
Since the modular system is already existing, the game will already look for a few modular mods like:
- no drs zones; - more drs zones; - no fog at nightraces; - reverse grid f1; - f1 performance mod; - myteam performance mod; - f1 team liveries (original chassis).
Don't worry, that does not mean, you need all these mods. It means, if you install one or more of these, the game will already be ready for it.

Yeah, I just wish some modcreators would actually use the system and the templates ... but no, they stick to original game files.
The whole purpose of all my templates was to have them create easy drag & drop files, so the users do not need to mess with EEA, but yeah ...

Thanks for the rating. There is an Ultra grip mod (not mine) existing and it seems you can only increase grip in general, dry and wet and also the A.I. will profit (and let's be honest: the A.I. is already too fast enough in rain).
You can use my modular performance template mod and check the edited lines from the "Ultra grip & car stability" and create your personal stuff ;-)
