F1 2015 Modding Requests Thread

ParkYongLee · Jul 12, 2015

Don't rush. CM needs to patch their game a few times at first. Worst case scenario would be like GTA V when at some point of the patching way, the modding tools need to be readjusted.

I tried changing the complete header and ending of a *.tga.erp file to a real .tga file and renaming it. But as the original header seems to grab three information from the .erp file, it ofcourse failed to deliver something useful.

Thought about making changes within the .exe file to remove the ERPK system, but errm, didn't work too well, of course

E: What I really don't like is: Seems the raceload is gone and is now replaced with some asset-system (asset_groups) if I'm getting that right.

I am really low on time right now guys, since I am involved in a lot of different projects. It will be a while before I can get started on this. I appreciate your willingness to support me though.

Yeah I'd be so happy if you could give us access to those erp files! Thank you very much in advance!

Isn't the raceload the file were you can edit the amount of vehilce damage? Did you find the option?

Yeah, but it seems to be much more work to do then, as you have to check and edit a bunch of files.
I'm going to try whether I can avoid using erp files via those assets and assign different files. I have my doubts but I'll know only after I tried.

If they are indeed the raceload could we not extract the hidden files like 2013?

Come again?

Millsy24 · Jul 13, 2015

Well in f1 2013 people used the raceload file to extract the liveries for the classic cars, maybe something like this could occur for f1 2015?

ParkYongLee · Jul 13, 2015

That'll depend on whether the game recognizes files w/o ERPK encryption, which I'm going to test today.
But I don't think so.

Millsy24 · Jul 13, 2015

Ah ok, hope it goes well

I wrote something to that in the Modding Questions thread.
Geckarbor5lp and me came up with the ideas with the raceload and ML2166 was able to get the content of the encrypted files with a game ripper. [Edit: With the 90s files in F1 2013 to not have misunderstandings

geckabor and raceload ... the result was bad enough, he never adapted the multilivery-for-dlc fix, did he?
(black cars, black cars, what you gonna do ...)
The thing with the ripper tool is, that might have lead to encrypted content now at all. I mean people started to extract the whole damn DLC (and RD even allowed it, don't come ever with your antipiracy stuff again, staff, one can't take it serious anymore) and were able to backcopy it into F1 2013 w/o owning the DLC.

Cause speaking of performance, such encrypted files don't increase it (look at R* anti-cheating tool/engine with its last patch at GTA V), though they might not notatbly decrease it in CM's case.

Just sayin' when people start to rip too much, developers will start to protect more and more when they don't support modding officially (oh, I love Paradox Interactive btw.)

A way to go through replays quicker (A faster fast-forward button) and a way to click on individual incidents in the 'race incidents' section and be shown what happened by jumping on board with the driver at the time of the incident using the replay that's already there.

This would be excellent

Williams Martini Mod please guys would be great!

Steven Poirier · Jul 14, 2015

To all before requesting, let modder knows how to mod it, its totally different from previous opus

dr. Kotasz · Jul 14, 2015

Cockpit cameras pls! Lots of them: different angles, heights, distances from steering wheels.

Thanks in advance. I only drive from cockpit view so I effectively can't start playing the game.

Is it possible to use the engine sounds from F1 2014 for the 2014 season cars in F1 2015? Other than that, I'd like to see the Martini Williams livery for both seasons and the Mobil1/SAP/Chrome MP4-29 in F1 2015.
