Hi. Is there a limit to the number of equipment marques that can be created ? I have been adding to the number and allocating specific equipment to the teams in my database. The latest, number 128, shows as -128 every time I re-open the database. I am not sure yet if the equipment is showing in the game.
If I recall correctly, indeed there is a limit on 128, but not totally sure. What I'm sure of is that there's a limit on 128 faces, and also that you can't use negative marques (like in PCM10 or earlier) - at least this last one was like this in PCM11, doubt it changed in 12.
Ok thx it seems to be correct the equipment did not show in game and I have had to re-edit the equipment for this team allocating a different equipment marques. I don't know if you have any influence with the development team for the game but his could be something for review.
Perhaps Cyanide might listen the opinion from some people on Daily's with a bit more attention, but definitely not mine's It's something that I could see changed indeed. But if you're assigning each team a different marques, with 100 teams you'd still have 27 brands for the selection menu, not much bad
What would happen if I over write the grand tour specific equipment ? Also the first 35 or so equipment marques, prior to the ones used for glasses, don't seem to be used in the game. Could I also use those ?
Which DB are you talking about? If you don't mind not having the GT equipment, you can overwrite it (the AI won't use it automatically).
You can use any ID for marques (between 1~128). If the ID exists in STA_equipment_marques, though, then that ID corresponds to a selection menu in-game. Usually these IDs are not assigned to teams because there's several different equipment from different brands, and the teams will randomly ride with whatever is in there. But if you don't think you need all the selections menus, you can easily delete them from STA_equipment_marques and make them team-specific marques in STA_equipment
