What's the best skin to skin on?

Redbull. Easily overwhelm the others(it has the least restrictions). Second place goes to Mercedes because both sides of the engine cover is skinnable , and it also has got a lot of places to skin however it's not recommendd for difficult paint. For difficult stripes, paint I suggest using Redbull chassic.

Thanks! However for the redbull sidepod you're editing on both sides right? Are they mirrored?

The sidepods are not, however the engine cover sides are mirrored.

Can anyone tell me which colours do what in the specocc file? I know vaguely that lighter colours are more reflective, but I've read something that suggested that yellow does things too? Thanks.

frontend/b_driver_<drivername>.pssg.
when PSSG Editor is opened, select <drivername>_helmet and import your helmet preview there.

yep, by extracting the nfs files. Then you need to add it to the database.. a bit complicated.


but I have my own question for others: How can I make the AI faster? I mean a LOT faster. In my 97 mod I am 4 seconds per lap faster than legendary AI for some strange reason.. even in a slow car like Arrows or Prost.

Hey everyone on Race Department! I decided that I wanted to create my own personal helmet for the F1 2014 Game. I was going to decide to integrate it onto the other F1 title games that I have, but right now. I'm only focused on F1 2014. Anyways, what I was hoping some of you on here could help me out with is if you could offer advice, or even assistance on the helmet that I'm trying to create for myself. I'm not very " creative " so I took the design of Sebastien Vettel's helmet that he has in the 2015 season, and re-created it, but to my own liking. Instead of the German colors going down it. I'm using the Italian colors to go down it. The problem though is on the front of my helmet it is straight, and in my opinion nearly perfect, but on the back it's all messed up, and I've tried to fix it numerous times. I just keep making it worse, that's where some of you come in... if you be so kindly to offer advice, or assistance. I'm also not sure if I'm placing the correct sponsors in the correct location, so if you could also offer advice to me on that as well, that would be great..

I use Paint.Net, I would be using Photoshop but since I live in a really crappy country town with terrible internet speed, and no money to purchase it. I just use Paint.Net. I'm advance in both of the programs, just not in helmet making that is, haha. I also would like to apologies for my stupid questions, I just am really curious, and interested into trying to get this perfect, though I can't seem to do it on my own. Also... I'm not sure, but I think the reason my helmet is a bit messed up is, because I need a fin on it, though I don't have any idea on how to add that while I'm driving my car in game.

I'm going to post some screenshots of it in this post/thread, but I just want to make it clear that I do not intend to post this helmet up for download. I did use a few things from other peoples helmets that they posted up onto here. Hopefully I'm not breaking any guidelines either on this page for this... I'm just using this for my own personal use. Anyways... here are the screenshots.
