Yeah that's what I thought, thanks. So to give the red bulls a boost, i should up the base value of whatever i want to change, right?

Under <Engine> you will find these:
<SplineElement x="70" y="2029.5623779296875" op="=" />

Under <Upgrade name="radUpgradeTier2Engine">

You'll find these:
<SplineElement x="0" y="143.2633" op="+" />

Add the 'y=' values from Upgrade to the top <Engine> 'y=' values in their corresponding rows.

This has probably already been asked and answered, but when I export a texture why is the resolution tiny and how can I stop that from happening?

Galaxyy · Nov 17, 2017

I gave the red bulls an engine boost and lowered the chassis mass by a few, but the car is now almost constantly hitting the ground and shooting sparks. Anyone know why and how to fix?
Edit: Seems I was a bit too aggressive with the mass reduction.

Are you using the latest version of ERP archiver?

can't do that, you can swap the colors that are in the game with material files though (so like green softs for example)

Decal files in general.

My game goes black screen when I edit the team performance file,what should I do?

Molda22 · Nov 18, 2017

Do you guys know if there was some patch that altered the performance of the teams in last few days?
Because for 2nd season of my career i did some changes, i made mclaren, redbull and sauber better and in the first three races mclaren and sauber were fighting for points but now suddenly in russia they are both dead last and have very bad lap times (and yes, i know the performance changes only apply if you are on the track so thats why i do one-shot qualy as in the first three races that it worked).
Did someone experienced something like this too? thanks

EDIT: so i tried testing on more tracks and it looks like it could be some kind of bug in russia that in doesnt want to use the altered files. because on few other tracks i tried it is working again. For some reason in russia it doesn't (i tried both career and even normal single grand prix outside of career)
