F1 Seasons Dev Update - June 2025 Hey everyone,This month we shine the spotlight on one of the most iconic classes in AMS2: the Formula V10 Gen 2. This category has become a fan favorite, and it’s easy to see why. With its screaming V10 engines, beautiful early-2000s aero, and thrilling racing, the V10 Gen2 class captures an unforgettable era of Formula 1. Let’s take a look at what’s already available, and what we’ve just released! Available Now: Three Seasons, One Era We now have three high-quality season packs for the V10 Gen2 class : • F1 Season 1998 → DOWNLOAD LINK • F1 Season 1999 → DOWNLOAD LINK • F1 Season 2000 → DOWNLOAD LINK Each mod includes accurate liveries, drivers, helmets, suits, gloves, and a fully customized AI file. The V10 Gen2 category has never looked so good ! New Release : F1 2001 @LadyCroussette is proud to announce that the F1 2001 Season is ready! This is our most detailed release to date : • Full-season driver roster including all mid-season driver swaps • Tobacco and non-tobacco variants for every team • Special liveries including Jean Alesi’s 200th Grand Prix livery • Helmets also have non-tobacco versions where appropriate • A refined XML Selector setup to switch between scenarios easily This pack delivers an unmatched level of immersion and historical accuracy. If you're nostalgic for the days of Hakkinen, Schumacher, and Montoya, you're in for a treat. Updates for F1 1998 & 1999 We’ve gone back to improve our earlier releases : • F1 1998 : Now includes non-tobacco versions for every car, bringing even more realism and flexibility ; the pack also includes better helmets ; • F1 1999 : Includes various fixes, plus a cool new feature: helmet previews integrated into the car selection UI! If you like this, we may expand it to other seasons. New Tool: Formula V10 Gen2 XML Selector With four seasons now covered (1998 to 2001), the V10 Gen2 class has become a carreer mode of its own. We’re introducing a new .bat-based XML Selector tool to easily toggle between different seasons, Grand Prix weekends and What If Scenarios ; It’s fast, intuitive, and designed to help you fully customize your AMS2 experience without digging into folders. What's Next? The V10 Gen2 lineup is now solid from 1998 through 2001. Would you like us to keep expanding this era? Let us know in the comments Thank you again for your continued support, donations and enthusiasm. Let’s keep pushing the limits of what AMS2 modding can do. See you on track!
I'm so excited! I can't wait for you guys to try out the 2001 pack! Alain knows how impatient I have been
Incredible job as always, I won’t be able to try it until the weekend, but judging by previous years mods, I’m sure it will be incredible. Mega job from all team. Thanks for providing the means for a proper career simulation, it’s appreciated. And as for the question on era expansion, I would say the more the better! Thanks!!!
Well, good thing for you: it isn't out yet! Well "good"... maybe isn't the right word for it lol Thankfully, this mod isn't far from release. It's already ready for release, but waiting a bit allowed us a bit of time to figure out some mistakes made with the textures (just yesterday, I realized I forgot to put the Senna logo on the Williams!). The plan right now is to release the 2001 skinpack - and the 1998 update - at the end of the week. In two days (or maybe three)! So you guys won't have to wait long!
Perfect, thanks for the info and for clarifying. You can take as long as you need, we can wait for the release! Keep up the great work as always .
The F1 V10 G2, along with Formula Reiza, are two of my favorite F1 classes. So I'm happy to read this update. How does the .bat selector work? Can we choose the year? What's missing is an F1 car from the 2005s, Alonso's Renault. But the 3D model is different.
Hi Alain, after installing the F1 1999 & the xml selector, i am not seeing the helmet previews in the car selection UI.
Yes, in the new XML Selector you'll have to choose first the year/season then the "grand prix week-end" scenario. 3D model is very different from all 2005s cars indeed. However, as you can see, the 3D shape of the V10G2 is also different from a MP4-14 (1999) or a Jaguar R1 (2000). And we still made justice for those skins
Heeey, the 1998 update is out, guys! You can download it here! For the 2001 pack, you will have to wait until tomorrow for its release. Just in time for the weekend! ------------------- Sorry for the double post (admins, feel free to merge them if it is a problem), but the 2001 skinpack is now out on overtake.gg! You can download it here! I won't go into details about the features of this pack, if you're reading this then you've read the dev update. So, all I will say is: if you like this class, then the new 2001 pack is a must have! It is certainly my proudest work (which I suppose doesn't mean much seeing as this is my second skinpack for AMS 2 lol), the 2001 season is a season I hold very dear to my heart, as I wouldn't be here without it. Playing the old F1 2001 PC game with my dad as a little kid is what got me into Formula 1 and simracing, so I really wanted to give this season justice. I hope I succeed
Excellent work on the F1 2001 version. We now have four consecutive seasons for the Formula V10 Gen 2 (from 1998 to 2001). Great races in view !! Thanks to the entire team, and especially to you , LadyCrousette for this version
Amazing work! They look stunning. The immersion they bring to the game is unmatched. Just one question: the livery previews are amazing, in that 1.6 style. Do you have any tips on how to make them? Are they just screenshots edited in Photoshop, or do you use a custom program for this? Thanks again for your work!
