Hi all,

I was trying my first helmet on F12012. I took some helmet templates, opened with PS as always, made my skin, then tried to save it as a DDS.

First problem : I saw that F12012 dds are in Dxt1 (2011 was in dxt5 if I remember well). and impossible to find any infos concerning these options

If someone coule give me the correct setup, it could be nice.

So I tried to export the DDS in dxt1 and 5,
opened PSSG editing sofware, opened the file in xx:\Steam\SteamApps\common\F1 2012\characters\bespokehelmets.
Then I import the DDS I made in High / low files
And I save with the same name than the original file.

Problem is : More than half of the helmet did not appear :/


Thanks all if you got a solution

guys I need a help in this regard:

1. is there any hack or cheat to make the career shorter by 25%?

2. there is a way to have all the teams unlocked from the start?

3. you have any mod "essential" can recommend?

How can increase mechanical failure in the race?
1 or max 2 for every race in 100% distance, is too little.
Thanks to all.

How to add sauber to hrt slot in 2013 mod? (career mode)

Has anyone ever played around with "manual pit stop"? I still try to figure, if there's a trigger confirming the car's position and actually do the pit ...
Just now I can manually drive into the pit stop but the crew just stands there and does nothing (only holding tyres etc.).

Can you tell me please how I can drive a Safety Car? I didn't find.

Hi,
there is a helmet issue in F1 2012 (was the same with 2010 and 2011).
If you alter the cams for your own purposes, you can see the "bow" (excuse my bad english) on the backside of the helmet in some game modes, in others it is invisible. Does anybody know how to fix that? Just a minor issue, i am just curious.

He means i think,the fin on helmet...
mungopark i think it´s a thing in time trial you use the driver helmet model of the real driver with fin.And in career you use a helmet without fin working

Ahhh... I alwaysa looked at the side of the helmet or by the arms

And i think the same as you. Only thing to change it is to make a tick in the database, but i am not sure if online playing is still possible, then.

How can I convert the dds file to a 3d model in photoshop?

a 2014 ERS system would be awesome
"an additional 161 bhp (120 kW) for thirty-three seconds per lap"
what would I have to do to upgrade the games KERS system to include this?
also would the AI make use of it?

Hi there.....just installed a sky tv intro to my game. My problem is.....when i fire up the game, the new intro video plays but with no sound !!
The sound kicks in again when the new intro finishes and the codemasters intros start.
Ive changed my intro's before and had no trouble.
Ive basically copied my new intro sting.bik into the f1 2012/videos folder and replaced the original one.

So guys...any idea why i dont get sound???

Cheers
