Importing F1-2018 Models

Version 3.1p 3DSimED and later can import models from F1 2018. The plugin for F1-2018 can be found atĀ  3DSimED3 download page.

To import F1 2018 models F1-2018 (*.erp) must be selected as the import file type.

Importing Cars.Ā To import a car you must browse to your F1 2018 game and look for theĀ f1_2018_vehicle_packageĀ folder within theĀ asset_groupsĀ folder. Inside theĀ f1_2018_vehicle_packageĀ folder there is theĀ teamsĀ folder with all the cars, select the car, and then theĀ wepĀ folder. TheĀ wepĀ folder should have the car’sĀ erpĀ file to select and import.
Note: to import a classic car browse theĀ f1_classic_02_vehicle_packageĀ folder.

At present the format for some of the higher resolution bitmaps (mipmap files)Ā  is not understood so the quality will not be the same as in the game.

Importing Tracks. Within the game’sĀ asset_groupsĀ folder find theĀ environment_packageĀ folder and then theĀ tracksĀ folder. Select the track and find theĀ wepĀ folder. For each track there are twoĀ erpĀ to select from, one namedĀ <track_name>_2018.erpĀ and the other namedĀ <track_name>_classic.erp, select one of those and the track should be imported.

As for the cars, the mipmaps files are not completely understood so textures will not be the same quality as in the game.
