GP4: 2011 Mod V1.2

 

The 2011 mod is one of the most content heavy mods I've ever released, and somehow there's so much that has been added for this update. 

This update largely includes the new updates created by SkaningeN, who has painstakingly gone through each GP and updated as much of the cars, helmets and tyres and wheel rims as he could. His remarkable eye for detail and patience to make all the changes is really awe-inspiring. 


On the cars side, most of his updates are on Josekast's cars. I've tried to make sure it doesn't 'break' the other cars don't have similar track specific attention. 

This is with the exception of the Ferrari, where he has updated my version, where a few additional shapes and textures have been added. 

I have amended the mapping of Jucksman's version of the Sauber so that it could share the track specific liveries that also work with Josekast's version. 

For the McLaren, the track specific shapes are Josekast's cars, but the track specific textures are against Jucksman's set. Sorry to split the two up, but I am restricted by the structure of the mod. I wanted to release this as an update to the existing mod, rather than having you install the whole mod again. 

Thanks to Kyle24427, who has kindly converted SkaningeN's 2D tyre rim updates to work with the 3D rims in this mod. I've adapted his implementation to save space and still get the same effect. I've decided to stick with the original intermediate and wet treads, where I also fixed the wet tread texture that did not have any blurring. This was largely motivated by not updating the tyre shapes for each team.

On the helmet side, I have installed all the updates, and I've updated the drivers Schuberth helmet shapes with the amended angle. I've also corrected Button's helmet to use Arai instead of Bell. 

F1 2011 add ons


I've included the Individual Meshes & Textures dll tweak by Öggo, but unlike my other recently released mods, it is essential to the running of the mod. I've only really used it here for the 3D rims tyre mirroring bug, it does little else in this mod. 

I've also added to the patch the helmet visor tweak that removes the green and orange visor tints. 

This mod also includes the high resolution menu fonts, thanks again to Öggo and Carl_gpgames for that. 


There's also some additional fixes. 

  • de la Rosa's helmet now loads correctly in Montreal. 
  • the soundsets were not loading correctly, this is now resolved, and I've added an option to not run any. 
  • I've fixed the cockpit clipping issue if you have the cockpit view fully zoomed out. 
  • Also fixed is in the CSM menu where Jerome D'Ambrosio has the wrong flag loading for him.
