That looks like rfactor, not F1 2012

I swear I've seen people's F1 2012 game videos with this style OSD. Does anyone know where I could find a mod for this?

I think kenken has done something like this...

Program Files (x86)\Steam\userdata\xxxxxxx\208500

xxxxxxx = Your Number

208500 = Steam Application Number = F1 2012

Local folder contains race ghosts
Remote folder contains game save files, and gets stored on the Steam Cloud

There you go mate, and that was a google search which brought our very own Graham Laing 's post up


P.S
What system are you running? XP, 7, 8?

 

[Graham Laing]

Officially XP is not supported by this game ..... Vista +

Why do i get blurry things when i try to merge down the 3d helmet ?

 

[craziej2k]

are there any templates for pit/race crew uniforms, or any generic uniforms without sponsors on them? I can't use the 3D ones in the resources area.

which program should i use for modding car models and skins?

I'ts because your 2d image is larger than your 3d image so it has to blur to compensate. Increase the size of the image the 3d helmet is in to at least the same size as the 2d texture and it should improve.

I think most people use photoshop, the extended versions are able to use ML2166's 3d models (available here and here) which make skinning a lot easier.

I am about ready too tear my hair out and cant seem too find a good solution hence why ive come too ask the "gurus" of the modding world too help !

I'm part of the PC Saturday Night League, and recently the guys who organise it have done some great work in creating some Skins for the teams and editing the raceload.jpk for balancing issues. My question is I want too use this mod, but also when im not I want the normal game with normal skins but I cannot get my head around the mod manager !

Som advice or pointers are greatly appriciated!

Does anybody have any advice for replacing a car, (Sauber in this instance), with a fantasy livery intended for the Marussia car. I'd like to know how I switch the Sauber model for the Marussia one? Any help is appreciated.

 

[Daniel Lee]

Hey guys,
Anyway of removing the text that appears beneath the flags on the OSD
eg. the "No Overtaking" text in a yellow flag zone?

You need to first make back up copy of both the teams.
Then copy marussia's cars folder and interiors folder over sauber by renaming ma2 to sa2.
That will replace sauber with marussia.
