Question on mods - drewdavis - 2024-08-28 03:53

Hi

I have two questions about mods. First, is it possible to use mods offline? I have experienced that if I disconnect internet, switch to a standard car, I can´t load the mods car I just had. If I start the same race, the mods are in use with the AI drivers, but I can´t drive the mods car without connecting to internet.

The second question is how I can call on a mods car from a command line, like /CAR XFG. I haven´t found any way to do this with the mods.

Hope someone has the answers to these questions.

This is rather LFS and not TC related. But I think there are technical limits.
The mod list is always queried fresh from the master server, which is impossible when you're offline and secondly, mods need to be downloaded (in the most recent version) first, before using them. That might also be impossible when you're offline.
Scawen could have implemented a workaround for this, e.g. relying on locally information only, but I assume he didn't bother for that, relatively rare, scenario.
