This is a guide so you can setup a separate class in GSC, then you can also run separate championships for each mod and it also looks nicer. Rupe Wilson showed me the way, but i'm doing all the work typing this up!
You will need a photo editing software like GIMP (
http://www.gimp.org/downloads/)or whatever you normally use. I will be reffering to GIMP here. Some knowledge of the program you prefer is needed.
BACKUP ALL FILES YOU ARE EDITING IN CASE OF MISTAKE OR WISH TO REVERT BACK!
1. First thing to do is download the rfm templates
here.
2. Open gimp then open the reizaRFM.psd
3. To add a picture that fits your mod, click File then open as layer the picture of your choice.
4. This will add this to the image. You may need to resize the layer to fit in with the template and also change its position.
5. Next the layer needs to be lowered to fit in with the GSC look. To do this in GIMP click layer, stack then lower layer you will need to do this four times so it looks right.
6. Now click layer, merge down then image is merged into one.
7. You can add other images in the same way or add text if you wish.
8. Decide what Reiza number category you wish to use, i have started mine at Reiza30 and so on.
9. To save as a file that GSC will recognise click File,Export then the type in the file name reiza30 (your number selection) with a .tga extension. It should look like this. reiza30.tga
Now you have a menu setup you need to set up the rfm file that hold's the information about which cars/mod reiza30 refers to.
1. Open the Reiza 30 template and open with notepad. The part we are concerned with will look like this, there is more but dont worry about that.
// Game/Season Info:
Mod Name =
Clio Series (enter the name of the mod that you wish to use from the vehicle folder)
Track Filter = StockV8
Vehicle Filter = OR:
Reiza30 (this will need to match your.veh file see No.5 below)
SafetyCar =
Mini_SC.veh (choose any pacecar you have available)
Matchmaker = match.reizastudios.com
Matchmaker TCP Port = 40001
Matchmaker UDP Port = 40002
Loading Bar Color = 13244190
Max Opponents = 23 // maximum opponents in practice/quick race/grand prix/championship
Min Championship Opponents = 5 // minimum opponents in championship only
// Seasons:
Season = Clio Series (enter what you want here usually referring to cars in the mod)
{
FullSeasonName = Clio Series (enter what you want here usually referring to cars in the mod)
BaseCreditMult = 0.0

}
2. The parts in red are what you need to change to match your mod.
3. Once edited save and close down.
4. Next you need to change the reiza class for the mod your are creating this for.
5. In your GSC installation Open up the folder GAMEDATA then VEHICLES folder then the folder for the mod you have chosen. You the need to navigate to the .veh file usually within the teams folder. Open this with notepad and look for a section like this under TEAM HISTORY AND INFORMATION.
Number=1
Team="Clio1"
PitGroup="Group1"
Driver="Piloto 1"
Description="Renault Clio 2013-01"
Engine="2.0 16V"
Manufacturer="Renault Sport"
Classes="
reiza30, VCS14" (change this to match your reiza class you have selected)
6. Now this is a bit of a pain as most mods default to either reiza1 or reiza5 so all you need to do is change the numerical value to the number you have used all through this process. Then save and exit and use the same process for the next .veh file
****************************************************************UPDATED****************************************************************
Thanks to Beef36 I would recommend you use
Textcrawler to change any multiple values, massive time saver.
Example changing reiza class to move to a new section.
1. Install Textcrawler and run program.
2. Change file filter to *.veh
3. Set start location to car folder you wish to change e.g S:\GSC2013\GameData\Vehicles\EnduranceSeries\P2
4. Put the entry you wish to modify in the find option e.g Classes="reiza1,ES_P2"
5. Put the entry you want the files to be replaced with in the replace option e.g Classes="reiza110,ES_P2"
6. Click replace and job done
*********************************************************************************************************************************************
7. You need to do this for all.veh files in the mod so the all match the rFm file and will then all go into the same section.
8.All you need to do now is copy both the .RFM file and .tga file into the rFm folder in you GSC installation and you should now find your mod is in its own section remember to use the scroll buttons until you find it!
Any question please ask.
