ok further to my last message...
iv found that when i set the csm.ini file to read damag=200 (or higher) it only affects my car, all AI cars are indestructible
when i set the csm.ini to read damage-damage2006 (the ini file) it affects everyone... however the changes to the damage2006.ini file are impossible to track and as previously mentioned untested...
does anyone have a simple way to double or more the damage settings to actually see AI (and my) cars fall apart after reasonable impact....
if tweaker is the answer how do i use tweaker and CSM at the same time...
many thanks.
