Once and for all, how to remove wheels in F1C?

by Jame » Thu, 15 Apr 2004 12:06:52

Hi everyone,

Can someone please tell me once and for all how I can remove the steering
wheel and driver arms from any of the mods for F1C?  I have my own arms and
wheel, I don't want another one  :0)

GTR2002 had this function with a script, but no other mods have it.  I know
you can edit certain car files to do it, but don't know which ones or what
to delete or remove.

Thanks in advance  :)

You can remove the wheel with a steering wheel puller. As for the arms try
acid, or if you can stand the pain a circular saw should do the trick.

Ya know, I was going to be a smartass on this one too but decided that James probably didn't deserve it.  On the other hand I did get a good laugh out of it!

James,

You can comment out the following lines in your f1car.gen file like
so... in F12002 it's in C:\Program Files\EA SPORTS\F1
2002\Season02\Vehicles. There are separate ones for each season in F1C I
think, but as I am at work, I can't tell you at the moment.

In the example below, the arms are off, but the wheel is still on, as
that***pit looks pretty stark without the wheel's LED readout.

If you change Movable=True to False, it hides it altogether, rather than
make it stationery.

Cheers, Glenn
