So just to clarify, a Negative number in pitstop_lowest_range = faster stop?
And if the number in pitstop_highest_range = mistake probability?

Negative number in pitstop_lowest_range = faster stop.................Yes
pitstop_highest_range...........the same number like in lowest_range-perfect stop.If you change the number to higher value than the crew make sometimes mistakes.
Excample: perfect stop under 3sec
lowest_range -0,85
highest_range -0,85
varying stop
lowest -0,85
highest -0,3 or higher

Still waiting for a response to marussia problem. Please help guys. Desperate!

 

[snthennumbers]

Jesus Smetja you're obsessed with torro rosso huh? You're posting everywhere

Anyway, I've been trying to search around the forums and haven't had any luck.
Does anyone know of the mod (I know I've seen it lying about somewhere around here) which enables only the DRS and KERS indicators in the cockpit view? No tachometer or speedometer mind you, just the drs and kers parts.

Or for that matter, does anyone know how to accomplish this?
Many thanks!

If you only want the car to feel faster for you the Player, lower the mass of the car by opening the CTF files for each track for Marussia:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\F1 2012\cars\ma2\track

You could also adjust the aerodynamic values for Marussia to be similar to those of a top team, just be careful as these are more sensitive values (still in the CTF files). Setting the mass to 650 or so should make a notable difference I'd think.
But those CTF files are where you'll be able to make the car faster if you the Player is driving it.

Cheers

Thank you my friend. Ive tried that. Set everything the same as Red bull but no difference in times. I dont play online and Im getting to old to compete with the young guys. Feels like the game is holding the car back, on the corners and top speed is 289kmh. Could never hope to win a race.. How do the other guys ever win with this car?? LOL

 

[AdamMaverick]

has any1 else run into a glitch where the engineer no longer talks?? even when i have settings to All??

and any ideas on how to rectify it

 

[AdamMaverick]

there was no speech audio at all...
just went into a young drivers test to test it... went to straight line test.. and game just sat there in silence for what seemed like ages before lights came up, which is where engineer would normally be describing the test.

i guessed it may be database issue, only cause thats only thing i have been editing lately... but didnt think that would actually be it...
but to test i imported the original database.. and low and behold talking was back...

i was not looking forward to resetting all my database settings... so i imported my current data base back in and now talking is still working...

weird... but now fixed lol

Ok, after setting the ctf files, I get +- 1 second faster per lap. Still about 2 seconds rep lap off the pace and Im pushing the car to the max. Anything else I could try??

hi couple of hours ago I was on my f1 database file and my computer jumped and I ended up typing stuff in, but strangely it jumped again and it tried to exit the files but it must of saved what had been typed and now my f1 game goes to a black screen (like it normally does before loading up the credits and copyrights) but then closes down again, so now my game won't start and I have a lot of mods to make my game more fun, so is there anyway that I can get my database back to default without having to uninstall my game or losing my mods, thanks hope someone can help me out! I sure won't be messing around with the database files anymore
I know its sounds stupid, but please someone help coz don't want to lose my save game or have to uninstall the game which takes hours

...I've never been able to win a race in a Marussia, even with the default game files. I can't even find a video online of someone finishing near the podium in a race with a Marussia.

Idk what you're expecting out of that car in an offline race...

can you explain me how on F1 2012 can I put a Ferrari 3D model instead of a Williams 3D model, in order to put a Ferrari skin for Williams Team? I made it a lot on F1 2011, but I explained to a friend who wants to do that on F1 2012 and he didn't succed

Well until default Pro difficulty you can win in a Marussia. I had the hardest fight on pro in Canada with a Marussia but still won a 50% game due to the AI being so extremely passive and cautious (default).
On Legend I never even reached 20th place
