more than 17 races per season

Hello everyone,

how do you make the seasons realistic with all the races? knowing that we can only have 17 races in the game?

Heya, you need to create two separate track profiles for the same season and alternate between the two depending on the track you want to race on

I on the contrary wanted the 17 races to count for the championship but it only counts 15 or 16 depending on the mods. How can i make this? Is there a file in CSM that can be changed? Sorry for the off topic...

In ZaZ GP4 Tools\Extra you find a file nr_champ_races.cap.
You can copy this file to Data\Patch of your csm mod and edit its last value with a hex-editor:


It's the number of races for a championshipseason in hexadecimal. Max number is 17. You need to edit the value in hexadecimal:
1=1
2=2
3=3
4=4
5=5
6=6
7=7
8=8
9=9
10=a
11=b
12=c
13=d
14=e
15=f
16=10
17=11

Edit: If you want the default 17 races, you can just remove this file from the patch folder.

Many thanks Carl, i used to play the last races as non-championship but now that won't happen anymore.

Cheers

I usually drive non championship races and control championship standings and things like that in spreadsheets.

Basically my current season has 25 races. Considering I organize my race weekends just like real F1 (FP2 and qualy on saturdays, race on sundays) it takes half a year to compete in a full season (8-9 months considering preseason time).

To manage the results I have written the Season Result Tools.

Yes, ido that but the "performance" is doesn't do for more than 17 tracks

example of the season 2018 : first season with more than 17 races

the first track profiles are race 1(Australia) to race 17 (Japan)
The second track profile is just brazil (track 18) and the performance are not brazil but Australia ...

It is not easy to understand, what you are talking about here.
- First, Interlagos as the only track in the second track profile happened in season 2008, not 2018.
- Second, with "performance" you mean, the loading of the track, right?
If this track is Melbourne instead of Interlagos, the program most certainly did not find Interlagos in the track profile (and loaded the default track 1 instead).
Check your second track profile for correct writing and check, if the specified Interlagos track does exist in the given folder.
