2009 Helmetset and Shapes by SkaningeN
---------------------------------------------
NOTE: Long post, download link at the bottom but please read first!
The 2009 helmetset now with seperate helmet shapes.
This helmetset have gotten some tweaks and now also gotten the correct helmetshapes for all drivers. I've added some missing helmets, fixed some others, fixed the alphalayer on some and added new versions that seemed to be missing.
Since the original Arai, Bell and Schuberth used the same mapping, I finally thought that all that tedious job with fixing helmet layouts and visors were gone.
How wrong was i? Very! This set is first and foremost based on DaiMOn's 2009 helmetset and he painted all helmets for Arai, which mean that I needed to fix visor shadows, alphalayers, make small layout changes and visor changes for all Bell and Schuberth helmets for this set to. And there are many helmets in this set! ARGH!
However, Bell and Schuberth helmets have tear-off visors because DaiMOn released templates for these when he released the helmetshapes, so now all helmets have tear-off visors unlike 2006 to 2008 helmetsets. I have also made the HANS device all black for all helmets.
Helmet versions marked with (new) is versions new to this set. They were missing from the original release. Sato and Davidson (Super Aguri) act as the 11th team, but that's for you to decide in the end.
All helmets from the 2009 season (that I know of) is included in this pack. You can run all helmets with individual shapes or you can use all helmets with only one shape for all. (If you do this, I recommend you use DaiMOn's original set with ARAI 2008-2009) The mapping of the helmets are all the same but might not fit in small places with the wrong shape. They are put in team order following carnumbers.
---------------------------------------------
Known issues:
* During testing, I noticed that in order to add this helmetset to a mod it could mean that you have to change some filenames in order for it to work.
I've made this set as stand-alone as I don't use CSM myself.
* I have done the helmet textures so that they fit the drivers real helmetshape the best. Example, so if you use Felipe Massa's helmet with Arai instead of Schubert, the result might be some textures not fitting correctly in small places.
* The authors of these helmets put their logos on almost every helmet and I've done my best to keep them on the helmets that use BELL or Schuberth. If you look at the textures in Slimtex or Photoshop, they could look a little sloppy but that's not noticable ingame.
* McLaren Interlagos helmets look a little "meh", because I could not find a close enough picture of the visorstrip.
* All of Vettel's helmets, except Melbourne which is painted by DaiMOn, is from an author that is not totally clear to me. Looking at some helmets some friendly people sent me, I think it's Grl48 who painted the one's I've used but might have been modified by somebody else on the way. But all these helmets needed fixes so all of them have been modified by me.
* Buemi only had one helmet released it seemed, with mid to late season and a couple of special helmets for the last few races missing. Singapore was hard to find pictures for so I made one with what I could see. The other special ones, I did my best to recreate them but they are not super.
* Nakajima's Singapore to Abu Dhabi helmet have the Thomson Reuters logo slightly moved downwards because of the edges of the mapping did not allow me to make to logo look good
* Button and Barrichello Abu Dhabi helmets: Both drivers had team members names on their helmets. In Buttons case, I mangaged to get almost all names on it, but pictures of Barrichello's helmet were scarce. So I reused the names from Button's helmet on Barrichello's.
* I realize that some helmets in this set that I've labeled as "new" was already created before. Most of these have been recreated by myself, mostly to make them more accurate than the ones released, atleast that I had on my HD.
NOTE: You need to add all the common helmet texture files in your cars.wad, otherwise you'll get parts of the helmets that become white

Shapes:
Arai GP-5 RC 2008 no wing and wing by MDBSnake
Bell HP3 no wing and wing DaiMOn
Schubert RF1 by DaiMOn
I have moved both Bell and Schuberth shapes a little to align them with the Arai shape, to make it easier to set helmet positions. The Schuberth shape has also been rotaded forwards a little.

Feel free to use this helmetset in a mod or even help modify for the better.
But make sure you give full credit, to original authors in particular!

Massive thanks to:
DaiMOn for his original work way back!
Grl48 and Nick9320 for additional helmets and textures!
kerleyf1 & Naitch7 for providing me with some helmets I was missing!
And of course the whole GP4 Community that's still active!
Without you all, this helmetset would not have been possible to make from my side.
