Do you need a list if programmes to make a mod?

Yes.

- 3DS Max 9
- Possibley Forza Studio or zModeler

That's it.

Here's a list of stuff needed when making a mod by ripping a Forza model from the game:

1. 3ds max 9, and SP2 for it (3ds max 9, I just used torrent ) SP2 for it
2. Plugin for export to the game
3. Nebula 2
4. Forza Studio/CARBIN resource extraction tool
5. Microsoft .NET Framework 4
6. Microsoft XNA Framework Redistributable 3.1
7. wx360 (to open forza iso)
8. Forza 3 .iso, I used torrent
9. quickbms
10. Look for zip.bms on this site. When you find it, right click on it, it will download a bms script for quickbms
11. Photoshop CS6
12. NVIDIA .dds plugin for Photoshop
13. NFS SHIFT xtx to tga to convert some xds textures

If you are using another 3d model not from Forza, or the Forza model has already been ripped, all you need is:

3ds max 9, and SP2 for it SP2 for 3ds Max 9

Plugin for export to the game

Nebula 2

I would love it If Jagur86rus would make another tutorial in English or Russian I don't care as long as there is a tutorial because I would love to make mods but I would need a tutorial

I would like to export the statistics that are collected during free driving. I've looked through all the code available in data/ and I can't see anyway to do this.

So my next idea was to make own mission that's essentially free drive. Then I could hook into all the lua functions and output all the data to a file, and then analyze that to get average speed, number of accidents, etc..

I've got --Max--'s custom mission loader working with one of his missions, but how can I make my own custom mission? I can't find any docs on that.

Anyways any help with exporting free driving penalty statistics or creating my own mission, much appreciated! thank you!

In the main menu I think there is a place that gives you a list of all the penalty points and the rules you've broken. It's under profiles or something.

Yes that is correct. I would like to export that list to a file where I can parse it efficiently. I work for a research team that hopes to use CCD in some studies. It would be very inefficient for someone to manually record these statistics after every trial.

I also noticed that in game.ini there is mention of enabling statistics, but when I do this it looks for Statistics.exe which I don't have. Could this be the solution?

Maybe that was something cut from the game or something. Wait for developer Kivlov to respond as he'll know more about the workings of the game.
