I wish it was only as simple as just "selecting the 5 speed gearing" goldaries.
But it actually involves modifying the HDV file in the mod.

A few months ago I began modifying several rFactor mods with more HP and 5 to 7 speed trannys...depending on which mod. (I have this constant, unsatisfied urge for a Need For Speed....lol).

So far I've sucessfully modified the DTM 2007 mod, the EPSILON EUSKADI mod, the BMW E3M92 GTR mod, the rF3 2006 mod, the RTRAINER mod and several others....including btw the VW Beetle 2 mod to which I dropped in a 446 HP powerplant and a 7speed tranny.

I've been thinking about contacting the developers of the mods to gain their consent to releasing the modified versions but haven't as of yet so I just mess with them offline for fun.

With respect to your question though, unless you know what you are doing I wouldn't go messing with modifying/changing the HDV and Gear files because its easy to screw them up.

I'm new to this 'rFactor' thing so I'm not very sure how things work yet. I've just found the 'Beetles' and totally love the things, it's a must have for me but can someone tell me please, do I need to download and install all the related files starting from 'Beetle Race 1.0'? Or are some of the downloads not needed?

Thank you (in advance).
