QUESTION Change the surface so it can be illegal on surfaces.ini

[Fernando Alves]

Hello everyone!

I need some help to change an existing track (Melbourne 22): I want to make this highlighted area of turn 12 illegal. I noticed that it has the same id (1ROAD_13) than the legal part of the track, so I guess I'd need to change its ID to something different and then assign it as illegal in surfaces.ini.

How can I do that (assign it to OUTER, for example)?

Best Regards,
Fernando

Use ROAD_13 in your surface ini entry

Use ROAD_13 in your surface ini entry

No, you will get errors in log like:
error: 1ROAD_13 - CAN BE ROAD OR ROAD_13

yes, rename° the mesh to like
1OUT
insert section in surf....ini
KEY=OUT
...
IS_VALID_TRACK=0

edit: ° - (before you ask: you cant do with config)

No, you will get errors in log like:
error: 1ROAD_13 - CAN BE ROAD OR ROAD_13

So mesh name 1ROAD_13 and KEY= ROAD_13 will log an error?

 

[fughettaboutit]

yes it doesnt know what it should assign, it will probably just use first (maybe from default in system\)

edit:
ERROR: Mesh 1ROAD_13 CAN BE: ROAD ROAD_13

 

[Fernando Alves]

yes, rename° the mesh to like
1OUT
insert section in surf....ini
KEY=OUT
...
IS_VALID_TRACK=0

Thanks! How can I rename the mesh, since I only have the .KN5 file? Is there a way to do it?

hex-editor https://mh-nexus.de/en/downloads.php?product=HxD20
replace with string of same length
1ROAD_13 -- 1OUTR_13

way easier than to export kn5 and build it again; you probably know - it will not work online if you dont share the kn5 with the others

edit: if you want to disable physics:
1ROAD_13 -- RROAD_13
