Editing anim.wad - detailed instructions need!

Can anyone please supply detailed instructions on how to edit the anim.wad file. I have tried but GP4 crashes even though the filesize remains unaltered.
I have edited the engineers and pitcrew only. Am I missing something?
Any help will be appreciated.

The secret is to NEVER extract the anim.wad.
If you do that, the game will crash.
So just use the tools available which allow to edit the anim.wad without extract it.
Personnaly I use WadUpdater 3.3. Another Lo2k's Great tool.

I use wadupdater to extract the wad and copy the new files to directory after renaming them to match the correct teams. I then use wadupdater to create a new wad file.

Gezere,

What tools do you mean? Do you just replace the files in the anim.wad with the new files?

As at 1:50pm GMT - I used wadupater on anim.wad and selected the skins/qualifying and skins/race folders to update the wad.

I ran GP4 and then selected a track and it opened the track and the new pitcrew and engineers are now with the rearranged teams.

Thanks to all those whose responded with help. I now know what to do.
