F1 2014 Modding Questions Thread

[doberjam]

Hey,

Just wondering about a solution to a problem I have had with the language file of F1 2014.

Having renamed Nico Rosberg to Sam Bird for a Formula E Mod, it changed Nico Hulkenburg's name to Sam Hulkenburg. I was just wondering if I've done something wrong or if this in fact a fault...

Cheers,

Wiz

Hi Everybody.

I'm fairly new to modding F1 games, but I have quite a bit of experience on other titles. I have a fairly basic question - Is it possible to use database mods, such as advanced AI, in LAN games? Some friends and I have an ongoing championship using Tuungle (We also have genuine Steam copies, we're not pirates) and would like to modify the AI behaviour. Any attempts so have resulting in lost connection upon entering the car. Is there a file integrity check on online/LAN games?

Many Thanks in advance.

this why anticheat is working very well ^^

try this http://www.racedepartment.com/downloads/wrong-car-numbers-in-the-mirrors-fixed.4359/

damn, it removes my max verstappen mod, so no option for me. After reinstalling Max Verstappen mod it still gives my Kyvyat's car instead of max

hi

i'm a noob at modding, but I figured out how Ego PSSG editor works.
But now I want to edit some graphics, I figured out how to extract an texture with export --> export texture.
But now I get a file called tr2_helmet_d.tga.dds. How can I edit this file in a graphic program?

thanks for your help

Hey guys,
I've installed F1 2014 on my computer and it was working just fine until a week ago,but now I got this problem:when I start the game it says to me that the launcher cannot initialise graphics because it needs DirectX 10 or 11.I've tried many times to re-install DirectX components from the "support" folder,but it still doesn't work...Could you tell me how to fix it?
Thanks anyways

Hi, please can you tell me if there is a value can be modified in order to increase the time between an accident/retirement and the safety car deployment? Always happens to me that after an Ai retirement on the track SC comes out istantly and not after a few seconds. Thanks.

i've 2 issues with the 2015 williams, 1st pic: i can't get that black part on the right fixed, and the 2nd pic: well, that explains enough

 

[doberjam]

Check for resolutions of tgafile
the second is for sure a double resolution : re-size tga and import in pssg.

well hi again? xD so i have a quick question , i want to modify the database and i would like to know when i go to the ai_driver part there are two things

speed_in and speed_out so maybe i'am stupid or whatever can somebody tell me what these two things are doing to the drivers? or what are these to parts doing exactly

greetings

I can only guess it's the AI driver's speed into and out of the corners. I never realised this too, this is just a guess.

All I know for sure is virtual performance actually works.

 

[Philipp Koch]

well then i will look after that seems much trial and error maybe i get good stuff out there

thanks! for quick help

Hey guys! So sorry but may i know what are the steps to take to make a new car skin? I'm still unsure of the softwares needed and there's too many pages to look thru. I would like to make a custom skin for my cars. Thanks

Hi mate, you need Ryders pssg editor (probably the first link while searching Google). Then you need Photoshop. With the pssg editor you can get the skins of the game and put them in and out. Also, something many skinners use (excluded me) are helpfull psd files you can find on this site in the F1 2014 downloads section. I think the guy making it was named Wilmar Chavez so you can search on that. It's not needed but it might come in handy when you start skinning. I hope this helped you a bit. If you have more questions, feel free to send me a pm

Then you need Photoshop.

Or GIMP (similar to Photoshop, and free! can open PSD files, but can't save them on multiple layers), or paint.net (less like Photoshop, also free. can't open PSD files, but can open TGA)

Yeah I forget about GIMP! I got photoshop anyway for school.
