Here ya go so far;

FPS,
Mods for *.plr files
Skipping  CIrcuit intro

First go to your 'save' directory and then to the 'your player name'
directory and open the file 'yourplayername.PLR' in a text editor. Scroll
down until you find the section starting with [ Controls ].

In the section, you will find lines like these below.

Axis [00, 00] Dead Zone="0.00000"
Axis [00, 00] Sensitivity="0.79717"
Axis [00, 00] Center="0.50000" // 0.0=min, 0.5=center, 1.0=max (use to
correct centering or split-axis issues)

There are 48 lines in this section. The first number in the brackets is the
joystick, 00 for Joy1 and 01 for Joy2. The second number is the axis, 00 is
X, 01 is Y and so on. The line you need to change is the one labeled
'Center'. This is set to 0.5 by default, which is appropiate for a centering
control like steering but for a non-centering control, like the brake or
throttle, it needs to be set to either 0.0 or 1.0 depending on whether the
control sends increasing or decreasing values. Which axis is which is a bit
hard to figure but I think that the [xx,00] axis, where xx is the joy
number, will be the steering in most systems so leave that at 0.5 and change
all the others. Try 1.0 first and if your pedals don't then work, try 0.0. I
hope this helps any one having problems.

Also, to LIMIT number of users while in MultiPlayer

*.plr
Where it says MAX MP Platers-"3"
Can go up to 16 I hear.

I figured out how to lose the arms.  Commented out those lines in the
f1car.gen file.  So far the only arms I've liked were in Rally Trophy.  I
wish I could get timing like with GPxPatch on my screen

Don't forget to use the high physics rate.
Half Rate="0" // 0 = super-high physics rate, 1 = normal

Also, you can hit objects now in F12002.

For FPS in the game:
ctrl f   it takes a moment or two to initiate the display at the upper
right,

For Skipping the Circuit Into
You can also edit your .plr file, changing the 1 to a 0 below for
various race weekend types:

GPRIX Grid Walkthrough="1"
