how do you install mods and replays?

LethalOatmeal · 14 November 05, 03:23

where is the information on how to view replays from RBRrank and how to install mods (such as the fast forward replay function)?

I've looked through the RSC and Blackhole forums and not found anything yet.
I click on the white rectangle with blue stripe icon and get an error message.

First how do I view a replay from the RBR Rank site? (what directory to I paste into)
next how do I apply to update that allows me to fast forward a replay?

To apply mods you'll need to extract the physics.rbz file
Do that by renaming it to physics.zip - then unzip to a folder
(back-up a your original physics.rbz before you do this)

The result is a folder 'Physics' which you put in place of the physics.rbz file
Dont leave the original file physics.rbz in the root RichardBunrnsRally directory.

A lot of mods are just a case of overwriting the files inside this 'Physics' folder

Replays go into the Replays folder thats all

And a nice, quick cheat, if you're having trouble in RallySchool, is to simply increase the value of....

where is the folder called replays?
I used the search function and nothing was found
RBRdll read me says extract to RBR install directory, so I used search function and this also not found

The RBR install directory is your default Richard Burns Rally Map.Behind it is your replay map. So don't search RBR install, look for a map called Richard Burns Rally:p

There is a folder called maps but it contains files about "clouds, sky boxes and tracks 4, 20 and 78". and nothing about replays or likely place to paste RBRdll in it

Go into the folder maps. And then take on step back (or "higher"). Now you are in your default RBR folder. Another way to find your default RBR folder is to right-click on the shortcut on your desktop, select properties. There you see what's your TARGET directory.

OK I move the RBRdll that I extracted from the RBRdll12 folder (it looks like a helmet) into C:/SCiGames/RichardBurnsRally then try to move it into C:/SCiGames/RichardBurnsRally/RichardBurnsRally (I don't see a .exe so I assume its the thing that looks like a helmet) and I get error message "cannot move RBRdll source and destination files are the same"
or I try to move the extracted RBRdll directly into C:/SCiGames/RichardBurnsRally/RichardBurnsRally and get a window the says my resolution and "NULL NULL NULL" buttons
I also try just paste into maps and nothing changes
