    I may be wrong but wasn't this issue because of the CustomAI files, not liveries? So try deleting customAI and keeping skins.

    There is a problem with Championship Mode when using Mods. If you set up a Custom Championship with some MOD tracks, once a new update is released the file becomes corrupted, shutting down the sim or SimHub, if using via that.

    Even when I uninstall Mod tracks, I still can't access the Mod championships I set up previously, so stuck with that corrupted setup and unable to access it and the system will always shut down. Reisa need to have a delete option within the Championship mode, not where you create or delete them on the outer menu.

    I have a couple of suggestions
    I mainly work on Livery mods for the skins templates for each model do not always have a template or example to help skinners with orientation
    The xml seems generalised and has any new offering listed regardless of the fact there may be no template or example in the zip file

    Banner
    Plate
    Lights flare
    Modders are very much left to work it out through trial and error

    glow plates for example seem to be limited to the door area. Why can this not be simplified to be an overlay using existing body mesh template as you may want to locate number plates on rear quarter or bonnet

    light glow and flare are in the xml but an examples or template are not in the template download
    So in essence it seems 50 % is provided and 50% you have to self learn
    It would also be great to see popular livery’s incorporated into game so they are avalible on multi player

    finally save replay ?? Why does it say saving replay but they never seem to be available again “no space in gallery”

    We could use the ability to start the game with parameters from json or other file that would enter race settings automatically. Stuff like track, player car, AI cars, weather, rules, pit stop options etc, basically everything we can click from race setup menu.

    We could also use race results in json or other readable file format.

    I know we have something like presets defined in game, but the purpose of this is to allow external apps to set up the race automatically instead of setting everything manually, and to get results automatically. I've been thinking about developing external app with "career mode", but unless those requirements are met its a huge pain to use an app like that.

    If it is already in the game, please point me to resources that explain it.

    Did you do as they tell us to do when using the modded track?

    In game, disable penalties to avoid penalty warnings.

    To be clear:
    Links to modded content are alright, but links to Rips cannot be allowed.

    I am not sure if I am on the right thread but I was wondering if it was possible to do some mods with only engine swaps.

    I am asking because I saw the Porsche 911 930 TAG Turbo that some of you may know.
    It is basically the Porsche 911 930 but with the F1 Engine from the MP4/2B! (link to a video: Porsche 930 TAG Turbo with F1 Engine! - 1.5-litre Turbo V6 Swap from a Formula 1! (youtube.com))

    So I was wondering if it was possible to take the RUF Yellowbird mod and use the engine (+sound) of the Formula Classic Gen 1M2?

    Thanks in advance for your help!

    Replays are stored on storage memory. The problem is in naming (quite random from what I remember) and space available in replays menu but... they are stored even if 'hidden' when a mentioned message occurs.
    Temporary solution is to copy them to another directory and add a readable suffix. Maybe it's not convenient but at least this workaround works if you collect many race replays.

    I'd like to be able to edit car class logos.

    I found this folder full of logos: Steam\steamapps\common\Automobilista 2\GUI\VehicleClassLogos. But changing them does nothing in-game.

    you have that, because CM unpacked all needed bff's to folders.
    As modded cars need that.
    But original cars will always read from bff's and not this folders, so changing anything there has only influence to modded cars.

    I'm not talking about modded cars. I'm talking about the logos for each car class. If you know how to mod the logos please share how. Thanks.

    as i said. The logos are there, because CM unpacked the BFFs that contain it.
    But they are not used, because Reiza always reads them directly from the BFFs and not from this folder. As repacking the original BBFs with new content is not possible, its not possible to mod that logos for og classes. Though you can see it in the folder.
    Definite answer: its not possible!

    When 1.6 is released, for those of us who have mods installed via content manager, before applying the 1.6 update, we have to uninstall everything (cars, tracks and project cars trees) and wait for mod updates correct ? Or will the tracks work and we should wait for car updates ?

    Thank's in advance.
