Seat adjustment question

[StoffelWaffle]

Hi all,
I know R07 has an option for realistic seat positions you can toggle on and off, meaning you can sit closer to the dash. This option doesn't exist for GTR2 but can I bypass the 'regular' seat adjustment positions and move the driver closer to the dash ? You can only move a few clicks and in some car it's not enough.
Cheers.

You have to go to the Team of the car folder, lets say you want to edit n21 Care Racing Ferarri F550, you have to go to
GTR2 Folder\GameData\Teams\GT\Ferrari 550 Teams\Care Racing,
open the .car file , in this case 03021_GT_Ferrari_F550.car with notepad

and edit the following lines (these are my settings that give much room for adjustment)

MaxSeatRear=0.100
MaxSeatFront=-0.100
MaxSeatUp=0.100
MaxSeatDown=-0.100

You have to do it with every .car file, that means every number of each team of each car individually. A lot, I know.
I created some notepad++ commands to mass edit all of my mods, if you want I can share them.

Open notepad++, go to Search>Find in FIles

tab Find in Files

Find What                        Replace With


^.*(MaxSeatRear=).*$            MaxSeatRear=0.100

^.*(MaxSeatFront=).*$           MaxSeatFront=-0.100

^.*(MaxSeatUp=).*$              MaxSeatUp=0.100

^.*(MaxSeatDown=).*$            MaxSeatDown=-0.100


Filters: *.car

Directory: YOURGTR2FOLDER\GameData\Teams

Match case UNCHECKED
In All sub-folders CHECKED

Search Mode:
Regular Expression, matches newline UNCHEKED

You have to do the procedure 4 times, once for each value (Rear/Front/Up/Down).

Now, with Find All you will find all the instances without editing anything, with Replace in Files you will replace everything with your values.
