Custom Helmets Problems

I've downloaded custom helmets pack and pasted it in the game folder, the helmets looked good in career mode, but it is still showing the default helmets in the helmet selection, how to fix that?

mod edit: merged into correct thread

By the way, how can I get the AI helmet? Im driving for Toro Rosso and I saw my AI teammate wearing a RedBull helmet, how can I get it? I got only 43 helmets in the selection, but I've check the helmet folder there are 99, how to unlock all of them?

No, there are not 99 helmets.

To make an AI wear a helmet, it is cars/**2 (tr2 in your case)/livery_0*/both folders/in the .pssg file, you need to import the .dds file. Also in characters/models/2013/higtxt_*****

I mean I want to wear the team helmet like all the AI does. For instance, Im driving for Toro Rosso now, I want to get a Toro Rosso helmet, but I just couldn't found it in the selection, but my team mate is wearing one, how can I wear the same helmet as he does?

In the default helmets, there are NO helmets with team logos
 
So how to get the one with team logo in career mode?
You have Four possible choices.

You either make one that you would want to wear.

Or you could go to the download section and browse through the many options to see if something there takes your fancy.

Or if you could use Ryders PSSG Editor and extract the helmet from a team livery and import it into the generic helmet slot of your choice. Found here :- http://petar.outer-heaven.net/downloads/

Or finally you could put in a request for one to be done for you in the requests section, and wait and see if anyone takes up the offer for you. Found here :- http://www.racedepartment.com/forum/threads/modding-requests-thread.68654/
 
Datalogger, search the forum for it. 2012 version works, if you've got trouble to get it work (some do, others not), let me know and I may provide you a pdf with a small tutorial.
Hi, do you know how to readjust the size of the datalogger osd that appears in game. mine is hugh........thanks
 
Does anyone know how to change the performance of the qualification and practice?

Open Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\f12013\tracks\difficulties\2013\ai_track_difficulties.xml in Notepad. It's a text file.

Keep a backup copy somewhere, and you can change any numbers of any level on each track line before each session (launch the game after you will have saved that file).

First of all, English only is the rule at Race Department's Forums (good thing you did translate your question in English, though, but please stick to the rules at all times).

Example:
1- Backup your existing ai_track_difficulties.xml file.

2- Open that file using Windows Notepad.

3- Search the line for your next qualification or practice track (for example, "monza")

4- Go to the number next to the level you're going to drive at your next gamestart.

5- Reduce that number by 0.10 (for example, if Professional # is 0.6465739, edit it to 0.5465739)

6- Save the ai_track_difficulties.xml file.

7- Close Notepad.

8- Start the game, go to Monza, select Long Week End - Full Qualifying (for FP3, Q1, Q2, Q3, and Race) or Short Week End - Full Qualifying (for Q1, Q2, Q3, and Race).

9- If your newly lowered number is not satisfying, exit the game, and go reduce the number by another 0.10 (like step 5- above)

10- Repeat steps 6-, 7-, 8-, and 9.

11- Once you've find the right number for you and you want to do the race, exit the game, save your new ai_track_difficulties.xml file to a safe folder where you will easily remember, then go to where you saved your game's original ai_track_difficulties.xml, copy it back into the f12013\tracks\difficulties\2013 folder, and restart the game. From there, you go to do the race.

Autosave must be turned ON for all these steps.

Download a mod that increases AI skill, there everything will be tidy ;)
 
I'm toying around with the materials.xml file, and I have a question.

I'm using ML2166's McLaren, and it's super reflective. What values in the materials.xml affect the "reflectiveness" of a car? I would like to increase it on another car.
