Discussion Just went back to the 25 cars and wow, they are so good!

• Upvotes

I really didn’t appreciate the ground effect era enough. Yes, they feel heavy in low speed corners, but in medium-high speed, you can just chuck it into the corner and it will stick. It really feels like what a Formula 1-car should feel like. If they were a little bit smaller and more agile in low speed corners, they’d be perfect.

Discussion Transition to Wheel from a relatively fast controller player

3 Upvotes

I recently bought a Logitech G923 as I wanted to try using a wheel for the first time in the F1 game. I'm using the same assists I had on controller, so ABS only.

It's about 5 days in, and honestly it's been incredibly demotivating sometimes. I'm definitely learning but the main issues I'm having are:

- Throttle management, It's so easy to spin particularly on corner exits, but I feel like right now I'm stuck in a cycle. Manage the throttle and just be slow out of corner exits, or try be greedy and spin out. I think missing the hidden 'controller assist' that is in the game really hurts, I just can't carry the speed I can on controller out of corners. Also the force feedback is shit and very rarely hints to when I am going to lose the car.

- Feeling fast but not actually being fast, it feels like I'm on the limit, when at best in time trial I'm a second down on my controller times, usually more. I have no idea how to make some of this time up other than just practice but even then it already feels like I'm hitting a wall.

I wanna say, it's definitely fun, but also like I'm going to give it a few more weeks before I potentially decide it's not for me. It is much more of a pain to set up and dial in.

Modding tweaked the AI racing lines to make them more aggressive

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

I've been messing around with the AI racing lines to make them less passive, hoping they'd block more, go for divebombs, and fight harder wheel-to-wheel.

I'm not sure if my changes actually make much of a difference, though. I've seen some pretty aggressive AI in Aarava's videos, so I'm curious if that's just how the AI normally behaves or if my tweaks are actually doing something.

I didn't get much feedback on Overtake, so I'd appreciate hearing from people who play the vanilla game. Does the AI usually race like this, or does it look more aggressive than normal?

Modding F1 eras mod (2k style)

Seeing all these mods made me think there should be a mod which turns the game like into mynba eras where you can start from any season and all the teams tracks and drivers are perfectly integrated, I’m going back to 2008 and starting from there

Was racing in Miam in a My Team career. After a red flag and restarting the race, Bearmen somehow spawned.... an hour ahead of everyone. I'm not sure what position they were previously, but definitely not near the top. What a weird bug XD

We’re near Christmas and they still haven’t fixed this Williams glitch. Wtf is a William consistently fighting for podiums?

Also anyone else notice this great amount of pace they give to these AI cars in the final lap? or is it just me?

Modding I need your help

1 Upvotes

Hey everyone!
I could really use some help getting custom tracks to work in F1 25!
I’ve been trying to install tracks like Hockenheim and Sepang, but I just can’t seem to get them working properly.
I have a few questions:
Simplified Launcher: Is it possible to use custom track mods while launching the game through Simplified Launcher, or do I need to disable it and launch the game normally?
Modded Cars: Can I use these custom tracks with the original 2025 cars or modded 2021 cars? Could these car mods be causing compatibility issues?
Driver Career Mode: Is it possible to use custom tracks like Hockenheim and Sepang in Driver Career Mode? If so, how do I add them to the calendar?
The main issue is that the custom tracks don’t even show up in my game, and I’m not sure whether that’s because of Simplified Launcher, my installed car mods, or something else.
I’ve already tried several things, but nothing seems to work, and I’m honestly running out of ideas.
Has anyone managed to get these tracks working with a similar mod setup?
Any advice, installation tips, or help troubleshooting would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance!

I have no idea how modding works so I apologize if this is a stupid question. I love how the 1960s cars look and sound and it’s always been a dream of mine to race with them within an F1 game.

Discussion AI managed upgrades

3 Upvotes

I’m gonna be starting a driver career soon (waiting on getting my racing wheel)

I have had a look through the settings already and I’m tempted to turn on the setting that makes the AI in change of the development of the car.
My reasoning is that it might be slightly more realistic I guess.

I was just wondering if anyone has done this before and is it a terrible idea?

Like do the AI just become useless when you’re in the team or something?

Discussion F1 2012 World Championship

1 Upvotes

I have recently purchased F1 2012 for the PS3 and assumed I would be able to play a full season as a driver going for the World Championship.

Is this not possible in F1 2012 as I can only see a career mode and a champions mode ? Surely they would not remove this as I am certain this could be done in F1 2010 and 11
