Vanilla Balance Mod Beta - Testers Wanted

[TheFlamingRed]

Make sure you down load all the parts!​

This mod has now been released. All the changes are listed in the above link. If a Forum Admin is reading this, if you could remove the "Testers Wanted" and change it to "Development Discussion" thread, it would be appreciated.

UPDATED TO WORK WITH 1.3​

Note: In attempts to fix the interviews and dilemmas, I have temporarily removed all non English languages from those two files. I hope to reinsert them into a later version (but when I do, they'll still be the vanilla text as I am unable to translate in any other language).

 

[TheFlamingRed]

Maybe.

Second did you look up the math for tyre? Did I start imagining thinks?

I did, I've decided to increase the effects for the next patch.

Relised tyre wear was only set to go between -0.1 and 0.1 additional (where as Attack driving type is +0.4). Decided to increase the time lost/gained as well to compensate.

But the math was right it was just too weak to notice.

 

[Beynasuh]

For an example;
What would be the difference in pace (speed) and tire wear of this cars approximately? (lets assume all of them are the same [parts, driver stats....]). I believe there wouldn't a difference in the vanilla version right?
Car 1 - Push / %50 tire temp
Car 2 - Push / %75 tire temp
Car 3 - Push / %25 tire temp

Edit: My driver won the last race but didn't get the 'Race Winner' or "Podium" trait. Is this a bug or are those random. (He didn't get any other trait after race)

 

[BrianUK]

Neither are 100% chance. I may put Race Winner to 100% if WonChampionship=false prevents it from overriding the championship winner traits.

 

[Beynasuh]

That would be great. Also could you do the same for "Podium" trait for 2nd and 3rd drivers?

Race Winner Interview Bug EDIT: The bug that crashed the game while interviewed after winning the race happened to me too. And here is the save file after race just before accepting the Interview.

Try again with the new dll I put up last night let me know if it's fixed

 

[Beynasuh]

Everything looks fine now.


Dilemma Edit: I got the Tondela Practice Dilemma. But the trait on the 3th answer is for Doha.

Grrrr... well... .... he's confused! That's the answer!

Changed the trait in Dilemma.txt. From "Rusty at Dubai-(ID:355)" to "Rusty at Tondela-(ID:356)".
All is ok for now.

awesome Are the Rusty traits working as intended?

 

[Beynasuh]

By that if you mean a temp trait of -7 in all stats for a 30-50 weeks, then yes. But the middle payment has a + value (so it looks like you get paid) in all of Track practice dilemmas execpt Tondela (here is the value -0.2). Also Tondela has a -1 Mil for the Expert trait choice. All other Exper Tracks have a -2 Mil.

 

[TheFlamingRed]

LMAO! You get paid!?

Well there's a colossal mess up. I am not that nice!

 

[Beynasuh]

I am not that nice!

I am well aware of that.

 

[raja1234]

Did you win that race?

If so then

Will apply to you, when I upload after a test or two tomorrow.

Yes, I did win the race. So when my drivers are placed 1 and 2, sud I reject the interview for now until your next update?

It's fixed. Download the new version 1.31d (all 3 parts).

 

[calvg]

Well... You gotta keep that Engine Cooling System sorted else it will... cause the brakes to explode! - True story.... (fixed ready for 1.31e)

I believe question 3 is fixed with

Fixed an Interview question (default 3) where it would ask you about signing your own driver, when in fact it was talking about another.

so let me know if the same thing happens after the update.

Did you fix it by adding something like "NewPart" to the question or change the "NewPartReliability = -50" variable in to a specific part?

I changed the question....

I changed the question quickly to be more generic... Seriously though, if anyone sees a dilemma they'd like to see worded differently, feel free to type it up as an email and post it here (along with the screenshot of the dilemma you wish to have changed).... !!! Get your custom dilemma text included in the mod for free!!! ( <---- this is all a marketing ploy to stop me from having to keep rewording dilemmas and get's the community to do it for me.... because I am lazy and can barely make a cohesive sentence).

 

[Beynasuh]

Would it work if I added "NewPart" in the question?

Something like:

Erm, bit of a disaster… We found a leak in our most recent {NewPart} system. The parts' reliability will be out of the window if we can't fix it!

 

[TheFlamingRed]

Erm, bit of a disaster… We found a leak in our most recent {Parts}.These parts' reliability will be out of the window if we can't fix it!

It's just {Parts} and it effects your TWO most recent parts (because I am using the same command to change both the Default parts for the pre-season stuff

Ps.... Beware.... rear wings don't leak very much....
Well, I guess they could leak air.... touche....
