Thanks. I found what I was looking for. The supplies logos were on another texture.

Hopefully you'll be able to put some hours on a real season with mod 2016 version 1.0 this weekend.

Any news on the release date?

enzoli · Nov 30, 2016

I'm doing all I can to get ready as soon as possible. It should be ready for the weekend.
Might have a beta version a bit earlier but I'm yet to decide if it makes any sense.
Thanks for your patience.
I'll update the first post too so you guys can see my progression.

mzeleni8 · Nov 30, 2016

Awesome and thank you

Mercedes93 · Nov 30, 2016

Thank you enzoli

Block · Nov 30, 2016

Thanks Enzoli for all your hard work and time. This mod looks great!

Stefan94 · Nov 30, 2016

Hi, first of all I want to thank you for all your hard work and I'm very excited about your mod. I have read all posts and I have some suggestions (or maybe wishes

).

1. I don't know is there any fake drivers left, but if it is you can replace them with some of these guys (I suppose that you put in most of them. But take a look, maybe it will help you).
Pastor Maldonado, Will Stevens, Roberto Merhi, Alexander Rossi, Fabio Leimer, Susie Wolff(a rarely real woman driver

), Kamui Kobayashi, Robin Frijns, Charles Pic, Giedo Van Der Garde, Heikki Kovalainen, Paul di Resta, Timo Glock, Jerome d'Ambrosio, Brunno Senna, Vitaly Petrov, Jaime Alguersuari, Karun Chandhok, Robert Kubica, Sakon Yamamoto, Christian Klien, Lucas di Grassi, Nelson Piquet Jr, Kazuki Nakajima, Scott Speed, Mirko Bortolotti, Daniel Juncadella, Antonio Felix da Costa, Conor Daly, Bruno Bonifacio.
I know there is just a few under 25 driver and most of them are over 30, but all of them can drive couple of seasons.

2. My suggestions for practice/qualifying session length are:
Practice: 30/40/60
Qualification: 15/20/30 I think that's nice, and more realistic than 60 mins in Q (for long session).

3. Is it possible to add some races? I suppose it isn't, but if it is it would be great to have some extra races in F1, because 16 is little for F1 season

4. Is it possible to make new schedule, as close to real calendar? For example, Australian GP should be season opener.

5. Is it possible to increase number of laps? With long race it's maximum about 50-55 laps and in real life there are a lot of races with more then 60 laps.

6. Is it possible to trade Verstappen for Kvyat, because their copies (fake drivers who should be those 2) are in teams like at the beginning of the season?

Man I can't wait for you to release this

Cheers

Raschio · Dec 1, 2016

Thanks, I'll look at those although at first look, I think they're all in my list already.

Ok why not. Only had one proposition so far so I'll take a look at it.
3. Is it possible to add some races? I suppose it isn't, but if it is it would be great to have some extra races in F1, because 16 is little for F1 season
I think it might be possible. I've seen people looking deep into coding but that's not something I'm looking at so my mod won't have more races until someone comes with a solution.
4. Is it possible to make new schedule, as close to real calendar? For example, Australian GP should be season opener.
Unfortunately, I believe the race order is random. Agin if someone comes with a solution I'm interested too.
5. Is it possible to increase number of laps? With long race it's maximum about 50-55 laps and in real life there are a lot of races with more then 60 laps.
I'll have to look at it.
6. Is it possible to trade Verstappen for Kvyat, because their copies (fake drivers who should be those 2) are in teams like at the beginning of the season?
Look at my first post for more infos.
My mod has correct drivers with correct physics, and adapted abilities, potential, ...
Man I can't wait for you to release this
Cheers

Thanks a lot for your suggestions

I didn't even know the game was available on Mac

I'm sorry I'm a PC guy. Do you have a ressources.assests file in the MM data folder? If so then you're on the right path but other than that I can't help you. Sorry.

Raschio said:

I've done Red Bull and Toro Rosso so far but didn't get the time to work on the rest although it's my plans. Since it does not need a new game to work, I'll probably release a beta without liveries and include it in the final release.

Raschio · Dec 1, 2016

Sorry Enzoli, but only the liveries (livery details file) or also in race mode (simcarmask) ?

enzoli · Dec 1, 2016

Just livery details.
I don't know how to edit race cars. I think Aeric find a way to add a color but don't know where are these files located.
If you know how, please share, I'd be happy to work on that too

Raschio · Dec 1, 2016

In the resource, there is a texture file called more or less sim mash 01.
The problem is that there is only one for all liveries! (ridiculous).
If you not found this, i search the right name.

David Danser · Dec 1, 2016

I saw that another mod is not working anymore because of the beta hotfix patch..
did you take this into account ? i hope you dont have to start over because of this..
