Hi, Cristian Luis
do you know of any tutorials on how to edit F1C car engines?
thanks

You need mechanical engineering knowledge to know how to model an engine properly. Otherwise, you cannot do anything, just like me.

To create an engine I use enginephysics editor (is quite intuitive). To edit, just notepad. Sadly, these only is too far to create a good engine properly

As with me, your best shot is: http://yoss.free.fr/rfactornfr/Modding_Tutorial_Website/PhysicsGlossary.shtml#Engine

Hi Cristian Luis
That's what I thought, hard to do... but still thanks for the answer.
thanks

Sorry Cecelo.

The man in charge of the physics is Carlos, CMT leader. He has, indeed, the knowledge and experience required to do F1C car physics (including the rest of the elements)

Hi Cristian Luis
I made a small modification to the car engines to have a more realistic RPM.
In the Engine file of each car there is the line RevLimitRange=(11500.0, 100.0, 7).
I changed the last parameter which is what makes the RPM value increase or decrease.
In the example above the RPM starts with 11500, it can increase 7 times, going up to a maximum of 12100.
In most cars it was possible to stay the same as it was in reality but in some not.
I still haven't tested this modification to see if it's good, I should do it these days.
If it doesn't work I'll go back with the original parameters.
thanks

Although the banter was fun, it’s too bad instead of saying thanks the first thing is asking for more. Maybe next time you can spend the time getting permission, figuring out how to properly convert card, actually converting them and fixing them to work properly in F1C. This is very disappointing. This has gone on for years and years and frankly I’m getting tired of this. If you want more, why not ask if you can help next time. This really kills the motivation. Please think next time before asking for more

I’ve released so much content in this site and seems like Sudden is the only one here giving thanks

I am very grateful for all your hard work and time, too!!!
