| Hi,again in some add on cars the needle of fuel index is not at 1/2 as in the default cars but in 1/4 and this is problem for big tracks (e.x Spa-Francochamps) with 8 laps in challenge mode.How I can correct this? | |

| The default number of fuel liters from a car's tank has no real meaning. Every modder inserts there the value he wants. The game developers decided to fill the tanks at half. You can modify the number of liters you want to have on your tank at the begining of every race from GARAGE -> FUEL (UP/LEFT) -> +/-.
If you don't want to bother with that, and want to have the tank filled 1/2 every time, open the .HDC file, then search for the FuelRange=(1.0, 1.0, 80) line. Look at the 3rd value (80 in our case), then change the value of the next line - FuelSetting=39 - with (1/2-1) of that value ! Another example: if you find a fuel tank with the size = 110, change the FuelSetting line to (110/2 - 1), which means 55-1=54 ! Hope you got it, 'cause I can't explain this better. _________________ Ferrari ... F1's soul since 1950

Thanks for this help about HDC file,but I know that I can have full tank in the beginning of a race by +/- but in some add on cars even I reached the max value by + key the needle is on 3/4 and not full | |

| In addition to the file .HDC also in the file .CAR must be the same values. For example, in. HDC is: FuelRange = (1.0, 1.0, 120) FuelSetting = 59 and in .CAR must be: FuelVolumeRange = (0.0, 120.0, 296.6, 244) HUDFuelVolumeRange = (0.0, 120.0, 142.0, 37.0) Capacity 120 must be given in all areas. In the files .CAR is often messed up, I do not know why. | |

| Yes but the entry: HUDFuelVolumeRange = (0.0, 120.0, 142.0, 37.0) isn't always in car files | |

| Yes, but you can always add (if needed). It is so ... some cars do not need this line, because they fit into the factory settings of the game. But most mods need this thing. It does not cause errors in the game, as it improves the display. Besides, you can play with it personally (and personally fit to your car). As you can see there are 4 numbers: 1 - always 0.0 2 - Fuel tank capacity 3 - the maximum deflection of the needle to the left 4 - the maximum deflection of the needle to the right | |
