I'm sorry, unfortunately I don't know how to help you because this problem doesn't appear to me.
I can only advise you to try to reinstall the game and the mod cleanly.

Also make sure that the contents of the "stwheel.ini" file are as follows:

[Main]
Format	=

[AddDirectoriesToWad1]
TargetFile		=cars.wad  
Directory1		=Cockpit\%teamspecstwheels%\%team%,cars
Directory2		=Cockpit\%teamspecstwheels%\%team%\%driver%,cars

I installed the mod with csm, but some of the cars look white:



Any idea what the issue can be?

I think the problem isn't just white cars.
From the image you posted I see that no cars have been loaded.

But I don't know how to solve the problem, try to tinker some more!

A little update: it seems that I have solved the loading cars problem, but they are all white anyway:



These are the steps that i followed:

- Downloaded ZaZ tools and put it in gp4 folder (C\infogrames\gp4\zaz tools)
- Run CSM
In CSM:
- File->Install carset/update->F1 2001. It asks to create a name for the folder and i did. It loaded the data.
- In the same folder, Install carset/update->F1 2001_part2. It loaded the data.
- Selected the folder and pressed "Start"

Am I missing some steps?

Try to use this f1graphics: [www.mediafire.com]

You have to put it in the main directory of GP4 and replace the original.

Now it works just perfectly! Thank you for the answer and for the awesome mod!

Final update for 2001 Mod avalaible at 1st post!
Brings the last cars by Hega, new default steering wheel by Zifox, plus various other minor fix and adjustments.

This should be the final version of the mod! No other updates are planned.
I thank everyone, both those who participated in the creation of the Mod, and those who did not, for the support!

I just have to wish you a lot of fun!

How not said ... new further update available! Brings new Minardi update by Hega.
There is no need to re-download all three parts, just "part 3".

mille grazie, Matteo

Thanks for putting together this update... again.

I was manually putting together a upgraded version of the 2001 season, and there's something i really don't get with CSM mods: I always have issues.
Everything seemed to be installing correctly, but the result visually is miles from what I get using my other install. I tried several options like forcing hi res textures and other tweaks available in CSM, to no change.

Which leads to two questions:
- have you been using Hega's remastered 2001 cars ?
- if you do, what could be wrong with my install ?

Here are two shots from my two installs:
- your mod (some things are ok, like helmets, rims, but the cars seem stock, though my cars.wad is quite heavy: 622Mo)
[imgur.com]

- my manual update (cars.wad is 540Mo)
[imgur.com]


Edit: I unpacked the cars.wad, and surprise: only the arrows lod0 files have been replaced. All the other cars meshes are originals. What the hell ? Still, I have all the hi res textures in the same wad, hence the huge file size.

Thanks Matteo for the updates, and to Hega and Kizz too.

@Zifox, have you installed all the CSM updates in order?

I think so: F1 2001.cuh, then F1 2001_part2.cmu and F1 2001_part3.cmu.
What's really puzzling me is that I have one two carshapes updated: arrows lod0. Why those two and not the others lods & teams ?

Anyway, i won't spent more time trying to make it work, i've packed my own update I only wanted to use the CSM mod to see the differences.

As always in these cases I recommend trying to reinstall both GP4 and the mod in question cleanly. Hope it helps!
