How to MOD WRC Generations! (Plus Gameplay)

[@SleepyPantsSimRacing]

Edit: I forgot to mention this in the video. "If successful, inside of Common\Settings there should be a file called settings.cfg, open it and change Engine.UsePkg = true; to Engine.UsePkg = false;" My apologies...

[@RikySim]

Hi mate! I like the tumbnail! The new cammera with pedals looks good. Thanks a lot for the visibility man!

[@SleepyPantsSimRacing]

@RikySim I will try to find my old phone again to get the shifter and handbrake too maybe. And you're welcome.

[@AustenValentine]

Thank you for putting so much work into that physics mod!

[@AustenValentine]

OMG you added the pedal camera! You're AMAZING!!!!!

[@SleepyPantsSimRacing]

;)

[@Starmast3rmusic]

Love the new camera setup! WRC Generations looks so awesome with mods-- actually looks like the car has weight

[@SleepyPantsSimRacing]

Yes, good observation, it really feels like it has mass, unlike in EA WRC. I might set up a shifter cam too like I had in the past. Pretty much only important for H-pattern cars though.

[@Kortex_Racing]

Wrc generations handling had mass before the mods

[@SleepyPantsSimRacing]

Correct but now it's feeling better to drive too! The game never felt horrible imo but it definitely is feelimg more natural now.

[@cactuslord8223]

thoroughly spoken tutorial and right to the point, much appreciated

[@SleepyPantsSimRacing]

@@cactuslord8223 Yes indeed! Thank you for watching!

[@potatoglizzy3212]

You’ve got me itching to give this a go now, might have to set it up 😂

[@SleepyPantsSimRacing]

Its a lot of fun, very satisfying to drive in this game.

[@vedadtursum6341]

A yes the best RALLY-sim creator on YT, great vid!

[@SleepyPantsSimRacing]

Yes it's a great one!!!

[@Spartancat02]

@@SleepyPantsSimRacing He is talking about your channel btw. And i agree to that statement.

[@grafire80]

THANK U! 💎 and the Foot cam is good as well 🤠

[@SleepyPantsSimRacing]

@grafire80 you're welcome! Once I stop crashing so much I'll move up to rally 1 In the career mode! Lol

[@thehoff8831]

thx for this input... maybe i have to try it :)

[@SleepyPantsSimRacing]

Its definitely worth it!

[@SP.Spittlebug]

gonna try this asap! the camera looks great! i dindt mind the narrow fov but wider is actually much better

[@SleepyPantsSimRacing]

@@SP.Spittlebug I suppose I will continue doing it this way, if for jo other reason because I will have to explain my situation less...lol

[@SP.Spittlebug]

@@SleepyPantsSimRacing yes its sad theres a lot of people who havent got quite clear what fov and screen ratio actually do

[@SleepyPantsSimRacing]

@SP.Spittlebug Yes, if i leave it at default fov...its like driving in a space ship, and it's nauseating to turn and watch the far sides warp around the car...lol you know, I'm preaching to the choir.

[@JSmith73]

That was a great drive, thanks for sharing!

[@SleepyPantsSimRacing]

Thank you for watching!

[@Alexneroverona]

So... i see youre enjoyng a lot Wrc Generations man 🎉🎉🎉 ❤❤❤

[@SleepyPantsSimRacing]

Lol a little bit it seems...

[@Alexneroverona]

@SleepyPantsSimRacing im Glad youve passed on the Kt Rally side of the road :))

[@SleepyPantsSimRacing]

@Alexneroverona the biggest thing that kept me away was the controls not mapping properly, followed by the throttle issue and clutch issue and lastly the audio ducking. Getting over the controls hump was what truly allowed me to give this game a solid second look. although I would have never re-downloaded the game if it hadn't been for @riky_sims physics tweaks.

[@LanesraGhost]

Nice setup👍❤

[@SleepyPantsSimRacing]

Thank you much! I love simracing, glad to be a part of this community.

OK, you and Leza made me do this. Just got the game for 12 euros and now to get the mods. The thing is, I always liked RBR and tougher sims so I'm really looking forward to playing another hard game.

[@SleepyPantsSimRacing]

Make sure and do the damage mod as well! I landed a bit sideways in a dip of a jump and Totaled my car. Something that would never happen with regular damage in this game. You don't need the brutal damage since that makes it to where you total your car if you bottom out a little but what I call the "safer suspension" damage mod is the one I use. That way you can still do jumps in this game, you just can't do 5th or 6th gear redline hero jumps. Lol

@SleepyPantsSimRacing what or who do you think I am man, of course I'll get that mod. Currently waiting for the mod unpacker to do it's thing. One of the games I'll never get the chance to try without mods. That means I trust your taste 🤣😊

[@SleepyPantsSimRacing]

Lol now I know exactly who you are! You are like me! ;)

[@SleepyPantsSimRacing]

Remember to set engine.pkg=false

​@@SleepyPantsSimRacing Sorry, I had to drive the shyt out of that last night (Croatia here), even my two yorkee girls went crazy over me driving too much. Yeah, had a blast and tnx for this tip, I did miss it and the mods didn't work from the start. Sorry for the text but it had to happen. I know you have your own plans but here goes nothing. There is this other thing I wanted to ask you if you are interested. I did write it before a couple of times but deleted it. Before WRC made it's way to Croatia, my ex fiance (unfortunately) and I made a mod track for AC, Medvednica mountain above Zagreb, Croatia. We had no experience but had a good idea and did pretty good considering everything. This stage became a part of WRC just by accident and now you can drive it in EA WRC (Bliznec stage and some other). I can always e-mail you and write more about some ideas but I know we both like rally and good rally physics, music, extreme sports, etc. AC Evo is coming and there will be an editor right at the start. I would like to recreate the whole mountain and part of Zagreb for freeroaming, rally competitions (that are happening there besides WRC), hotlaping and whatever. Ofc it would be lidar scanned this time. Blah, blah, I can talk till tomorrow. Would like to invite you one of these days for a lap on my server on the Medvednica mountain, a place where I learned to drive, where WRC was a couple of years ago and where you'll have lot's of fun, guaranteed. For future projects I just want to say I don't really "need" you and won't ever ask anything from you but if you are interested in telling the world about this project, organizing stuff there, using it for free and giving feedback that would be amazing. I know, we are far away from each other but who gives a f. Why all this? I will never ever again use social media, long story short. So, considering I have the partially finished stage for Assetto Corsa, the two of us can drive there. The plan is two WRC Ford Fiestas. You can use the footage ofc. Thanks for reading this shyt man

[@JuanMendez-lh4pw]

Thank you for this. Been wanting a video for this exact things I'm going to try to do this step by step so I'm pretty nervous. I'm never good at trying to mod a game. I hope I'm successful. I appreciate the guide

[@SleepyPantsSimRacing]

Remember to go into the settings like the Avery mods instructions say. I forgot to mention that in the video.

[@JuanMendez-lh4pw]

I followed the steps in the video. I'm sorry if this sounds like a stupid question but what do you mean by remembering to go into the settings? I'm so terrible at these things. Thank you so much for you help

[@SleepyPantsSimRacing]

@JuanMendez-lh4pw click "Common" then "settings" then "settings" CFG file Then search for "engine.usepkg" and make it say "false" instead of "true" then hit save.

[@JuanMendez-lh4pw]

Yeah I looked there and I don't see that. That file isn't there. Thank you for your response man

[@SleepyPantsSimRacing]

@JuanMendez-lh4pw did you already run the exe. File in the game directory after downloading the avery unpackager tool?

[@OverNightLuthier]

This reminds me of how I make guitars...with passion.

[@SleepyPantsSimRacing]

YES, Luckily, Papa Douglas taught us well!

[@SleepyPantsSimRacing]

You both have done well young ones...don't let Papa Douglas down.

[@vedadtursum6341]

How is this game so good i was shocked when i went thru the fence😮 (played to much ea-wrc lol) the fence broke in to pieces!!! Also i forgot rally game can be cristal clear and not a blury mess

[@SleepyPantsSimRacing]

Lol it's almost the complete opposite of ea wrc.

[@worldpeace786]

Hey bro thanks for all of this, ive got a few questions about the ricky sims physics mod: Do you genuinely think that the gameplay does not get messed up and with the mod feels more immersive? And secondly is there a car list of what rickys mod has changed so far, so im aware what to use to try it out if i do decide to. Thirdly bro if i dont like the physics mod can i revert back to original WRC Gen Phyisics, can you do a video demonstrating this? Thank you

[@SleepyPantsSimRacing]

The gameplay does feel better with the mod and nothing gets messed up. If you don't like it, you can follow my instructions in this video and replace the adjusted files back to the original files.

[@SleepyPantsSimRacing]

There is a car list on the patreon. :)

[@worldpeace786]

@@SleepyPantsSimRacing thanks again, will try give it a shot, so you saying back up the whole common file (approx 11 gigs) because when you install the phsyics mod it replaces alot of files inside that file, and just replace the whole file back if you dont like it

[@SleepyPantsSimRacing]

@worldpeace786 ya that should work.

[@Spartancat02]

Did the camera make your hair shorter? Joking, but the camera setup looks awesome. Though an improvement needed: - .2 seconds cut after the video ending snap, and a black screen after the finger snap would make it the best ever.🤣

[@SleepyPantsSimRacing]

Lol ;)

[@vedadtursum6341]

If someone has a problem with saving ffb in game. I found a solution: 1.Use a controller for menu and stuff 2.if ur on fanatec: pc mode, in game csw2.5 bind ur pedals, wheel, handbrake, shifter 3.set ur csw 2.5 as main controller So now u can change ur ingame ffb and vibrations etc and it will save always Remeber controller= menues and other Wheel=driving

[@SleepyPantsSimRacing]

@vedadtursum6341 I had this issue, I fixed it by deleting my profile controller mapping and switching the gamepad from on, to off and then on again. then starting over mapping everything.

[@KeepoHdee]

Too bad this game doesn't support vr natively. The added depth perception really helps me gauge my braking distance and countersteer angle. Will see how much of a pain Vorpx is to set up.

[@SleepyPantsSimRacing]

As far as I understand, vorpx can only work with a flat-screen image. Meaning it can put you in a 3d space but only in the direction the camera is naturally facing. There might be a way to connect the camera horizontal and vertical axis to your head movement but I'm not sure.

[@rooim1]

Dont you need to change in setting document set PKG to false ?

[@vedadtursum6341]

I had to

[@SleepyPantsSimRacing]

@@rooim1 dammit, i forgot to mention this...

@@SleepyPantsSimRacing keep up the good work pal 👍👍👍💪💪💪

[@SleepyPantsSimRacing]

Will do! Thank you for bringing that to my attention, I also missed recording the camera mod install. But at least there is a video of it already in my wrc gen playlist. :)

[@iceone8879]

Mate first of all make sure to be very high setting SSR(reflection) in game graphics then reduce the value in ''UserSettings.cfg'' file : Engine.Renderer.SSR.RaymarchingSSRThreshold = 0.2; this is normally 0.6 value which makes the all reflections disgustingly eye bleeding especially wet conditions even in gravel Also Engine.Renderer.SSR.RaymarchingSSRBlurFactor = 0; This should be zero also.. Now you have more realistic raining reflection. MEGA JOB You can also disable vignette : Engine.PostProcess.Vignette = false;, This creates an artificial yellow tint colors but if you don't like you can enable. NOW KEEP ON DRIVING.

[@SleepyPantsSimRacing]

Thank you much for the settings advice!

[@labpong7562]

I will have to try this, I noticed some of the wet roads looking overdone and textures getting weird on dirt when wet.

[@SleepyPantsSimRacing]

@labpong7562 yes when the pavement is wet it seems to look great but the dirt can sometimes be overdone.

[@Ilgulliverblue]

I was checking lot of files for to try disable the auto respawn when y crash go out the road.. any idea? I think is not possible..I keep searching

[@SleepyPantsSimRacing]

I mean there is a way to disable it in the previous games but I haven't tried it on this one because it would prevent any leaderboards to be counted. But I have a video on this if youre interested.

@@SleepyPantsSimRacing i would like to left the track sometimes in ea sport wrc :) but we are talking about wrc Generation...i search a looot in unpackaged files but no way for now...we need find a way to disable timers for auto respawn or respawn at all!!! i know what y mean about leaderboards it s real and needed for not to have people cheating but in wrc 8 anyway without respawn y cannot go to the finish line without do all the entire track
