F1 Challenge 1994 Mod

I've downloaded the 1994 Mod [f1simlinks.net]
It's very good, but how can I change the AI opponents to 27? The default number is 21. And it's impossible to go higher.

thx andrew

works fine now

absolutely fantastic mod

*Bump*

I know there's another thread for the same mod, but this one is more relevant to me

I've changed the value for all of the opponent levels to 27, but still only 21 if i try to do a championship. This is the case when either going to a already created championship, or starting a new one. I'm editing <mydrivername>.plr, in the save folder - is this the right one?

Any help is helpful - i have the same problem with the '95 mod

---

have the same problem here. 27 in race, but only manage to get 21 in championship. even after starting a new one

Lol, Andrew - your services are needed!

i dont know about that, ive never had to run a championship, try opening the cfg file for the mod, and changing the gridsize to 27 :-S

I don't think you can have more than 22 cars on grid for championship, I tried all I know and still goes kaputz :p

I GOT IT WORKING!!!!

*Ahem*

All you need to do is this. First, create a championship and go to the page where it shows you the drivers championship results. Then back out of it and quit the game. At this point, you need to set all of the opponent values to 27. Then, you need to open the F1_1994.bch file (in the same folder). Find the GAMEOPT_opponents line, and change to 27.

Now comes the long-winded bit. Go down to your player line, it will look like this:

Name="Gary Kemp"
VehFile="SEASONDATA\VEHICLES\SIMTEK\1994_S941\1994_SIMTEK32.VEH"
RCDFile=""
FinishPosition00=14
FinishPoints00=0
FinishPosition01=25
FinishPoints01=0
FinishPosition02=19
FinishPoints02=0
FinishPosition03=27
FinishPoints03=0
FinishPosition04=10
FinishPoints04=0
SeasonPoints=0
PointsPosition=11
PolesTaken=0
OriginalGridPosition=21
CurrentGridPosition=21
ControlType=0
Active=1

Change OriginalGridPosition and CurrentGridPosition to 27. Then scroll down the list of opponents, and make a list of them. From this list of 21, it should be easy to work out the missing 6. Then scroll down to the very last one, which will be this one probably:

[OPPONENT20]
Name="Eric Comas"
VehFile="SEASONDATA\VEHICLES\LARROUSSE\1994_ LH94\1994_LARROUSSE20.VEH"
RCDFile=""
FinishPosition00=27
FinishPoints00=0
FinishPosition01=12
FinishPoints01=0
FinishPosition02=28
FinishPoints02=0
FinishPosition03=28
FinishPoints03=0
FinishPosition04=9
FinishPoints04=0
SeasonPoints=0
PointsPosition=11
PolesTaken=0
OriginalGridPosition=20
CurrentGridPosition=20
ControlType=1
Active=1

Or someone else, but it will be 20. Copy and paste this, then change the name, repoint the veh file and increase the grid position lines by one. I added Michael Schumacher and it came out like this, with changes emboldened:


[OPPONENT21]
Name="Michael Schumacher"
VehFile="SEASONDATA\VEHICLES\Benetton\1994_B194\1994_BENETTON05.VEH"
RCDFile=""
FinishPosition00=7
FinishPoints00=0
FinishPosition01=2
FinishPoints01=6
FinishPosition02=2
FinishPoints02=6
FinishPosition03=1
FinishPoints03=10
FinishPosition04=1
FinishPoints04=10
SeasonPoints=32
PointsPosition=0
PolesTaken=4
OriginalGridPosition=21
CurrentGridPosition=21
ControlType=1
Active=1

Repeat this until you have added all drivers, which should take you up to grid position 26. Save and close.

Finally, back into the main F1C folder. Open up your F1C Config file and change GRIDSIZE to 28. Save and close, and when you re-load the championship it should have 28 drivers! :D

:D

Hi,
sorry to drag this thread up again, but I've donwnloaded the 1994 mod, but there's no readme. What are you supposed to do with all the menu stuff from Godzilla?

Thanks

Dunno - i just didn't bother installing all that - i would assume that it's just background menus/icons etc.

I played it, and the sounds are great, but....

there are all these plack lines or patches or triangles that are coming up all over the place that make it impossible to play. The come from the cars (well, that what it looks like!). Some cars are worse than others, but on the grid for example, most the screen is black!!!

Anybody else had this?

Also, is it me, or are the performances way out?!

Thanks
