Data type of .car files

Post by don_fifi »

Hey guys,

long time no see :D

I was wondering if any of you know what the data format of a .car file is.
The reason I'd like to know this is that I want to change the car's stats byt modifying the files directly with Python (or NodeJs or whatever) without having to use the CarEditor. I tried reading the file as bytes but I couldn't make sense of the output.

Thanks!

Well, I don't know.

All I remember is that Strava made a tool in QBasic that was capable of changing car values - even beyond their actual limits. Maybe he has figured out.

The program is still available on planetgenerally.de: click here
