F1 Challenge 99 02 Setups Are Not Set

The sport of Formula 1 has changed a bit over the course of the last few years. Drivers and teams have come and gone, rules have been altered, and some of the circuits have even undergone design changes. Electronic Arts' latest Formula 1 game--as its title suggests--features accurate information not only for the current season, but also for the three previous seasons. F1 Challenge '99 - '02 doesn't offer a four-season career mode like F1 Career Challenge for the PlayStation 2, but it does allow you to climb into the cockpit of no less than 44 different F1 cars from the stables of 14 different teams. The game features a slick, TV-style presentation. Before playing F1 Challenge '99 - '02 for the first time, you're required to create a player profile that'll keep track of all of your race statistics as you progress through the game. It seems a little strange that before you're presented with a game options screen, you're required to choose which season you want to race in and which driver you want to race as, but these choices determine the appearance of the subsequent menus, and switching to a new season or driver simply requires you to edit your profile.

All the in-game options screens are color-coordinated according to the team you've chosen, and you'll immediately have access to a model of your chosen vehicle that can be rotated manually in real time, should you wish to inspect details such as sponsor logos, the name of the tire manufacturer, or even the plank on the underside of the vehicle, before taking it out onto the track. Many of the game's camera angles are purely for show. You'll probably want to get your chosen car onto a circuit as quickly as possible once you've navigated the various menu screens, and thanks to Electronic Arts' numerous driving aids, you can do just that.

The driving aids available in F1 Challenge '99 - '02 include steering assistance, opposite lock assistance, braking point assistance, stability assistance, spin recovery, invulnerability, auto shifting, traction control, antilock brakes, pit lane assistance, and clutch assistance. With all the aids turned on to maximum effect, the game requires you to do little more than accelerate and turn the wheel. This is a good way to start playing, and as your confidence grows, you can choose to either increase the intelligence of your opposition or make things a little more difficult for yourself by switching individual aids to a lower setting or off altogether. It's a shame that no training mode or series of license challenges have been included in the game for novice players, but the driving aids make for a mild learning curve, and they have the added bonus of allowing you to drive competitively the moment your first race gets under way. F1 Challenge '99 - '02 can be comfortably played exclusively with the keyboard, as the visuals and audio do a good job of providing you with feedback on your car's handling, and after a few practice laps on any given circuit, you should be more than ready for the qualification and race ahead. There are quite a lot of controls for you to remember once you start ramping up the game's difficulty--such as letting your team know that you'd like to make a pit stop, and then activating your rev limiter manually when you go in--but initially you'll be able to get by with just steering, accelerating, and braking.

So, I have two F1C foldiers: F1C 99-02 with RH 2003-2005 seasons and F1C 99-02 with F1 Mania 2006-2008 seasons. Both CREW_F1.exe, F1 Challenge 99-02.exe and the 3DSetup.exe are set to Windows 98/ME Compatability and Run as Administrator (which were the working settings used on the old.

Tweaking your car's setup doesn't have to be complicated. The opposition in the game seems quite intelligent for the most part, although we haven't really been able to study their movements closely enough to know whether or not individual driving styles have been replicated successfully.

As your own racing skills improve and you turn more and more of the driving aids off, F1 Challenge '99 - '02 also affords you the opportunity to get involved with your car's setup. Like with the driving itself, the game allows you to become involved in the car setup options gradually by first presenting you with a screen that consists of nothing more than four sliding bars representing downforce priority, balance, gearing bias, and suspension stiffness. After experimenting with different setups in this way, you can eventually attempt to optimize your car's performance by tweaking everything from radiator and brake-duct sizes to tire pressures and rebound damping. It's not strictly necessary to go that deeply into the car setup options to win races, but if you're out to set record lap times or take advantage of the game's multiplayer mode against friends, there's every chance that doing so will improve your times to some degree.

The circuits all look extremely realistic, the car models and textures are incredibly detailed, and the overall presentation of the game is of the quality that fans of EA Sports games have come to expect. Perhaps our only criticism of the game at this point would be its lack of different gameplay options--notably of the career mode being incorporated into its PS2 counterpart--but if you're after a realistic F1 racing game, it's difficult to see how you could go wrong with F1 Challenge '99 - '02. Every aspect of the four racing seasons covered by the game has been re-created in detail, including the very same weather conditions that were experienced in real life--which pretty much sums the game up at this point. F1 Challenge '99 - '02 will be released later this month.

F1 Challenge '99-'02 trace results. I just downloaded F1 Challenge, and my game of course has been crashing because of the mods. Is there anything such as a handy utility for all of these fixes? One more question: Is the trace.txt file comprehensive with the CTD error or is it particular with the files that have crashed? Bsa Air Rifle Serial Number Search.

EDIT - Since I don't feel confident of playing around with the game files' templates, is there such thing as a mod manager/installer for F1C99-02? Well, pardon me; I figured it out in a short amount of time. I am going to install mrjglo's track pack(though I wish there was another site with the DL.) and f1 seasons starting with '82 so I can drive with Gilles Villeneuve's Ferrari. F1 Challenge '99-'02 mod installation help.

In my opinion, I will love F1C more than rFactor because the grip is not so twitchy even without driving aids. But, the point of this thread is when I attempt to install a mod such as the Track Pack 1982-1996, I install it but when I select certain tracks, I get a CTD error. It's also the same way when I select certain cars installed through a mod package that gives me the CTD error. For installing mods, should I just do an Auto-Rename for a few of them so that the original file is not overwritten?

Really hope someone can help me - I downloaded the 1994, 1995 and 1996 F1 mods from BulgarianSimWorld. After installation, I went into the game - edited my player to any of the mods, went back, selected a country flag to select a track, and when I click Go To Track, I get the error of 'F1C.exe has stopped working'. I get this every time. Also, intermittently it crashes after selecting a mod driver as soon as I try to go back to the main screen.

But not always, even with the same mod and driver. I am running Windows 7. Any advice will be appreciated!
