Dear fellow drivers,
I adjusted the tyre degradation wear of all teams and MyTeams, because I see that the strategy soft -> medium is practically always the best choice for my races with the stock files during 25% races. This mod makes more teams, including you, make medium -> hard a very good choice as well. Obviously, depending on your drive style, setup and upgrades. This also causes more variance in strategy choices by the AI.
The 50% versions make sure you can get a 2 stopper strategy (but definitely not on all tracks! Some tracks are not meant to be two stoppers) and also more variance in strategy choices by the AI. I tried to always let you choose between a one and two stopper, but after days of testing, I have to conclude that it is not possible for 50%.
Information
The front and rear tyre degradation is increased by 60% for 25% races and by 35% for 50% races.
For 50% races, R&D tyre wear improvements is turned off. Else you would get 4 stoppers in season 1 and no good two stoppers with a fully upgraded team.
For what version is this mod?
This mod is built over F1 22 version 1.09, released on the 22th of August, 2022. It will work for the version before and most likely for the following versions too, but eventually, there are going to be an updates again to the engines, aerodynamics et cetera. I will release an update once that happens.
Can I play online with this mod?
No, that is impossible. Practically all mods are blocked by Codemasters to work online.
Does this mod work for existing MyTeams / Careers?
Yes.
How do I use this mod?
To be sure, backup this folder:
or at least the .erp files therein. If you do not, you can still repair your game via Steam (right mouse click on F1 22 -> Properties... -> Local Files -> Verify integrity of game files..."). This resets your game to stock.
To install the mod, simply copy the correct folder in your F1 22 installation folder, which is, at least for Steam users, located at:
Manual install
Import the xml files in each .erp, located in:
What lines have changed in this mod?
Remember that for the first 2 changes, there are 2 identical lines, one for the front and one for the rear tyre. Don't just adjust 1!
UpgradeWearFactor of front and rear tyre:
Changed to:
For 50% races, deactivating the R&D tyre wear improvements:
Changed to:
Especially for 50% races, I recommend using this mod in combination with this one, to have 2 medium tyres available for the race:
