2016 Mod

[enzoli]

Current version : 1.3.2 (28/02/2017) -- Please read instructions and FAQ below before posting.
Please do not use my work nor upload it somewhere else without my permission.

This mod is composed of a Base and a Layer. You need both in order to have the full mod.

LAYER MOD INSTALL INSTRUCTIONS (STEAM) - Thanks to @Paxon

Spoiler: Click to view

1. Go to the MM Community Hub in your steam client.

2. Go to the workshop.

3. Search the workshop for "enzoli".

4. Find the "Layer" mod and click it.

5. Click on the subscribe button.

6. Make sure the mod is active in your in-game workshop.

You're done.

You can proceed the same way for my other mods you found on step 4.

BASE MOD INSTALL INSTRUCTIONS (WINDOWS)

Spoiler: Click to view Install Instructions

1. Download PART1 and PART2 on your computer. Both parts are necessary.
2. Right-click MM 2016 Mod 1.x.x.part1.rar and uncompress it.
3. Part 2 will be uncompressed automatically. You should now have a folder MM_Data with the installer right next to it.
4. Launch the installer and follow instructions.

If the installer does not work for you, simply copy/paste the MM_Data folder into your Motorsport Manager folder.

BASE MOD INSTALL INSTRUCTIONS (MAC) - Thanks to Mr Peugeot and Alon2o

Spoiler: Click to view Install Instructions

1. • Download PART1 and PART2. Both parts are necessary.
     
   • Create a folder anywhere and put both mod files in this new folder
     
   • Open Part_1 of the .rar file with an extractor (I use The Unarchiver but I’m assuming any upzip program will work)
     
   • Don’t worry about Part_2. The extractor will have included that without you seeing it.
     
   • You will get a folder called MM_Data.
     
   • Open finder
     
   • Command + Shift + G

   • Right click
     
   • View the contents of the package
     
   • Home
     
   • Resources
     
   • Data
     
   • Replace the resource.assets file with the one in the MM_Data you obtain in step 5.
     
   • Open StreamingAssets folder
     
   • (Download and in data)
     
   • Then replace only the Champ1.bk2 files
     
   • Champ2.bk2
     
   • Champ3.bk2
     
   • And replace the TeamIntroMovies folder

FAQ:

- After I installed the mod, the drivers, teams and staff are fake and all logos are original ones.
You didn't activate the mod "layer" on the Workshop. Please do so as stated above.
- My game crashes during or after launch / I get a black screen then nothing.
Make sure you run the last version of the game on steam.
Go to Steam then right click on Motorsport Manager>Properties>Local Files>Verify integrity of game cache. This will synchronize your game to server version which is always the last version available.
- I don't see the car liveries. Rest is working fine.
Liveries do not work in 2d Mode. Turn on 3d mode.
- How can I change logos/team names/... myself?
Download Unity Assets Bundle Extractor and open resources.assets with it. Extract textures or textassets with the "plugin" button on the left. Modify things and import file back using the same "plugin" button.
Logos are in logos1@1080. Practice and Quali Times are in simulationsettings.

create a folder somewhere (could be on desktop if you want). Then download first part 1, and open it with winrar (or any other program for compressed files) ...then extract (first part 1!) into that folder. Same with part 2.Open with winrar and extract to that folder you created. Now...if you open, you will see only one assets file there. Copy and paste that file into your game - (into MM_data folder!) Overwrite existing assets file there. (You should backup your original assets file from game first)
I hope it´s easy enough. Btw...i noticed that folks maybee do wrong, because download both files at once. Part 2 is smaller, so it may open sooner than first part. If you are not careful, you start with second...which is wrong

Thank you for the heads-up on how to do things! It worked out somehow, and I am back in third division making my way up the system

Regards

There is going to be a new official update (automatic for the game today (thursday) and the mod will not work with it until Enzoli releases the new one, which hopefully will be on friday. I would suggest playing with some stronger teams in the meanwhile so you wouldn't get upset by losing a real career game. (you have to start a new game with each mod update and I'm pretty sure even with a game update)

Thx enzoli.

After my First Season with sauber (8th) i have 90-100mio.

i increased my car so hard and Build a lot and got the best chassis. 30 Mio. Rest.

Is there a chance to make it more Difficult.

There are no Moments where ur Team felt back.

I think the Teams get too much Money during the Season (chairman) and After the Season.

I think the chairman Bonus Must change 50-70%.

Can u change the chairman Bonus??

Or reduced the Season Bonus Maybe to 50%.

Guys, can anybody tell me the path to install this mod on a Mac? How do I deactivate the livery DLC?

Thanks.

Thanks.

You can deactivate it in Steam, when you go to your game in Steam, look for DLC box, untick livery pack. As far as the path for Mac, I'm not sure, but Enzoli adressed this problem somewhere, you might try and find it yourself or wait for Enzoli to respond in the morning

MAC INSTALL:
Access your Motorsport Manager data folder via 'Users/USERNAME/Library/Application Support/Steam/SteamApps/Common/Motorsport Manager/MM/Contents/Resources/Data'
Backup your resources.assets file from this folder.
Extract content (resource.assets file) of zip in that folder.

Note: If your game crashes at the beginning, it is most likely you're running an old version of the game and need to update it in Steam. My game version is 1.1.11882+17.20161125.1837. Please can any Mac users please post this with their success of installing, or if it doesn't work so I can identify issues where it works/doesn't work. Thanks.
If you're not using Steam, you won't be able to use this mod.

The above is what has been said previously regarding MAC install.

@enzoli

I have managed to sort my install out, works like a dream. Many thanks =)

Really simple to install, looks like i was getting confused regarding the asset modding program =)

Hello, if I go offline, the game updates? thank you

Hi, I don't think it will update if you are offline, but to prevent it you have to go off the grid completely. I believe it updates as soon as your computer gets access to internet.

Can you not turn of auto updates in Steam for the game?

 

[Joe Timms]

Hi Enzoli,

Quick question regarding modding MM (I know you get a lot, I'll be quick!).

Is it possible to change the speed of cars? For example, Haas currently have a slower car than Sauber, I think this should be changed, is this possible? Also I think Force India's car is slightly too slow in comparision to Mclaren and Williams.

Thanks in advance!

 

[dimagico]

i know it will soon be updated, but intesresting development in my game. Season two...in GP2. I know i was whining how could Hulk sign for Racing Engineering GP2...but guy literaly destroyed GP2 field this season...wining everything from the start without errors ...so, might be, that he looked bigger picture and Racing Eng. will go into F1...i hope with Hulk still behind the wheel ...but...till then game will probably be updated, so i will need fresh start.

I already planned on lowering prize money.
I saw that I can lower Race Payment Offset. It should lower available money all around.

Not an easy job. It would need testing as I don't know the impact of values.
Like for sponsors and retirements, changes I made in previous version, it took me a bit of time to figure out things and I had to make 2 more versions to have it correct.
First I'm going to look at the update files then I'll look at how to change the values to not break the game balance.

 

[DnyI]

Can you not turn of auto updates in Steam for the game?

No, the options are: 1. Always keep this game up to date. 2. Only update this game when I launch it. 3. High Priority - Always auto-update this game before others

Ouch, well that's something I don't know how to change really. F1 drivers going into GP2 is weird. It's more than probably written in some random game mechanics.

STEAM-AUTO UPDATE:

And there is a 4th option. That is how I do it:

In Preference, set the DL time to, let's say between 4 and 5 in the morning. Set it to a time were your PC is ALWAYS offline ! Doing so lets you decide when to update a game. It says : *Pending Updates*. Easy, isn't it ?
Cheers
Andrew

How do I check if the game has updated? I'm trying to find the 2D mode but I can't.

Library - Motorsports manager right click, properties, verify integrity of Game cache. It compares your local files to the uptodate ones in the cloud

By doing this Steam will replace any modified files in you MM Data file. Beware!!
Bye bye you resources.assets file. Bye bye 2016 Mod.

 

[georgetimms23]

That's okay as my files are backed up! I did this but my game still hasn't updated!

Steam updates happen at 6 p.m.
