Hi. Can someone advise on how equipment is allocated in the db ? I am trying to add the AG2R helmet from the PCM France team pack. I have overwritten the existing files in the texture and mesh folders. But I can't figure out how to allocate the helmet in the db. For instance, HTC are allocated 53 for wheels, helmets and frames in DYN_team, but I can't find the number 53 in the STA_equipment_marques table ? So where is the equipment allocated ?
If your using the PCM.daily 2011 db there are two AG2R files I find in my files AG2R and AG2R_New if you overwrote one of those and that didn't work try overwritting the other.
Other than that all I can say is that maybe PCMFrance used a Brown helmet in the download even though a white helmet is pictured.
The helmet remains the same as it was before. But I would still like to know where the numbers come from for the allocation of equipment. In the PCM Daily 2011 db AG2R helmet allocation was 10 I think, again this number is nowhere to be found in the equipment marques table ?
STA_equipment -> fkIDequipment_marques. That's the number that will go on the team's equipment. Then, if it has a number in fkIDequipment_unlock, it will be selectable when you're about to enter a stage. If it has a 0, it's a 'hidden' equipment, which means you won't be able to select it in the beginning of a stage but teams will use it (even your team if you don't change anything).
The marques that appear on the STA_equipment_marques table are only the ones you can chose when entering a stage, so the ones that have a number in fkIDequipment_unlock (back on STA_equipment).
There's a chance I'm wrong, so if I am please someone correct me, but that should be it =)
KenL made a short tutorial. This is the way I do it.
- overwrite all nif and dds/tga files.
- Open the Nif file with Nifscope. If you don`t have it, download with google.
- Then as shown on the pics you have to add the path of the three d, n, s-files
- save
works for me perfectly without any editing in the DB.
Hi. Fail, sorry firstly there is no helmet in the PCM France pack. Secondly I've cracked it. The number relates to the number for each item in the fkIDequipment_marques column in STA_equipment. Thanks for your help, regards Jaywol.
