With this mod you can add a permanent heli view to your car camera selection.
2 angles (front and reverse) are included. 
Use F7 & F8 on your keyboard during replay to switch between them.

Follow the instructions below to add the heli view to your car cams:

1. Download BinXML to convert car cam´s: http://ego.wikia.com/wiki/BinXML
2. Make a backup of your original car cam.
3. Car folder names can be seen here: http://goo.gl/ju7ewJ
4. Convert car cam to txt file using BinXML.
5. Add the code found in the link to your car camera txt file (right below "<ViewManager name="xyz">"): http://pastebin.com/Cvm2h1YX
6. It should look like this: http://i.imgur.com/ZyGvfa8.png
7. Save the camera.txt and convert it back to xml with BinXML.
8. Paste the new camera.xml in your car folder and overwrite the original.

That´s it.

NOTE: Camera works best in open environments, where there isn´t many trees.

Feel free to edit the cameras and include them in your own camera mods.

does anyone have the older file for the interior texture of the Evo X ?

They finally corrected the speedometer animation, but switched to a MPH for the speedo dial

To what I can see, it still the same scale, so I would like to switch it back to a KM/H speedometer

Was there a list somewhere of the folder names for which liveries are selected in game?

I wanted to edit my personal selection of custom liveries so they were all the last or first selection in game, but i've noticed that it's not always the highest number folder for the last livery for example, the Fiesta.

Most of them i think, sorry :)

Also, is there nothing i can do to convince you to do a high quality version of the 2014 Fiesta MSport livery, the current one doesn't seem to have that quality finish.

ill see if i post a list with images of the liveries and folder names, biggest problem for me is to redo that blue smoke effect on the background in order to be accurate, if i manage to find a good size of that effect ill do it, but if i do it it will be this one

and not this one

because i dont like to do liveries of different car shapes that dont fit

Good, because the first one is the one i love!! :)
I hope you can find what you need to do that, seriously, it's a beautiful livery :)


As for the list, i don't need the pics, don't waste your time on that much, i only need to know which folder contains the first and last liveries for the cars, so, livery_43 might be the last selection, 5/5 or something.

that changes, there are cars that the first selection is livery_00 and other cars are livery_43 or something else

Ugh, yeah, that's my problem, hence why i wanted to know which folder/directory belonged to the last livery selection and maybe the first one.

If you look in each car folder the livery maps are placed in order. First folder is the first livery, last folder the last livery. Just rename the downloaded files with the matching name and in the livery folder you choose. It's not as easy as copy paste but not much of a hassle.

There are lists out there, but I generally just open up the PSSG to see which livery is which.

@F2CMaDMaXX Does this help at all?  http://www.racedepartment.com/downloads/dirt-rally-mod-manager.8062/  I use it all the time, and works well for what you want to do.

The Mod manager is a really great tool, and easy to remind you of which liveries you have replaced with what too!

I haven't used the mod manager yet, i looked at it, but decided not to bother at the time as i just have a flat file copy folder of the liveries i like.
I might have to try it out perhaps?

@bogani wouldn't that depend on your file ordering?  At least, i'm guessing that the highest number livery folder is the last, however i could have sworn i found that not to be the case for the Fiesta?

@bryskye What are you opening it with?

No, from memory, the liveries are not necessarily in any numerical order, but physical file order as @bogani suggests.  
The mod manager also renames the modded files to suit whichever livery folder you choose to replace!

Physical file order is default alphabetical, so i'm not sure how that wouldn't be the case for numerical?

Hi to everyone, I am a huge fan of all the mod community. specially meerkat and UD. I have a couple of petitions. I think there are two cars that deserve more love. First one, the Escort MKII. The World champions. 1979 Waldegard and 1981 Vatanen. Beautiful Rothmans liveries.




Secondly, Sordo/Meeke mini. I know this Mini WRC have a couple of isssues in Dirt Rally (wrong bonnet and spoiler). But a nice red livery (not the 2012 montecarlo with the ugly ad in the back) would be nice. If you take the default cobra (red and black) livery and change the sylver lines around the bonnet vents with black ones it could look almost decent. The prodrive spoiler ad should be on the top, sadly no more options in that ugly and incorrect spoiler. I think the Mini is a very nice looking car, it needs a good red livery.
