I have just looked at the player.ini file in the Players folder... There is a
field:
driverNationality = 11 ; nationality of the driver
This would appear to be an index into a hardcoded table, used to extract the
name of the nation the player drives for. Now I haven't found yet which file
the names of the countries are contained in (I haven't had this PC too long, &
don't have a hex-editor yet) but if you have a hex-editor, and can find the
right file, it should be a simple matter to change the name of any country to
the one you want to drive for. This of course would involve a substitution,
meaning that any drivers who drove for the country you changed would now drive
for the new country. I doubt it's possible to add an entirely new country.
If you decide to try this, PLEASE make a backup copy of any file you edit!!!
(I'm thinking it will be gpl.exe, though I'm probably wrong!). That's faster
than re-installing, if you mess something up!
I hope this will help, if I get time this weekend I'll try doing it, and mail
you the results if I'm successful -
