4: Installation ----------------------------------------------------->


Installing the Mazda 787B in Racer:

Step 1. Extract the contents of this .zip file to Racer's \data\cars\ 
directory using the "Use folder names" option. (in WinZip)

Step 2. Start Racer, and enjoy!



Installing the AI lines for the Mazda 787B:

This car includes AI lines for the following tracks:

Brands Hatch
Carlswood
Donington Park
Fernstone
Le Mans
Nurburgring
Schuchter
Swiss Stroll

The AI lines are stored in the directory Mazda787B\ai lines\

To use a AI line, you will need to copy it from that directory to a track's directory. 

For example, if you want to use the Le Mans AI line, copy the file "Mazda787B.ini" from the folder data\cars\Mazda787B\ai lines\Le Mans to the folder data\tracks\Le Mans\AI


5: Customization----------------------------------------------------->

-----------------------------------
Switching paint schemes with Raven:

This car comes with two paint schemes, the white/blue #18, and the
red #55. The car is designed to be used with Raven, which is a tool for Racer that allows you to select different variants of a car. You
can find the download for Raven here: 

http://forum.rscnet.org/showthread.php?t=156945&page=1


---------------------------------
Switching paint schemes manually:

If you do not wish to use Raven, you can find the two different paint
schemes in these two folders:

Mazda787B\raven_variants\#18
Mazda787B\raven_variants\#55

Simply copy all of the files from one of those folders to the 
Mazda787B folder to use that paint scheme.


------------------------------------------
Removing the arms from the steering wheel:

Step 1: Open the car.ini and find the line "file=swheel_arms.dof". 

Step 2: Put a semicolon in front of that line, so that it reads
";file=swheel_arms.dof". 

Step 3: The first line below that line will say 
";file=swheel_noarms.dof". Remove the semicolon from the front of 
the line. 

Now a steering wheel that doesn't have arms will be visible.


------------------------
Using the arcade car.ini

If you think this car is too hard to drive, you can try the arcade
car.ini that I made for it. This car.ini will handle similarly to the
cars in Need For Speed: Underground. To use the arcade car.ini, follow
these instructions:

Step 1: Rename the file "car.ini" to "car.ini.sim".

Step 2: Rename the file "car.ini.arcade" to "car.ini".

Step 3: Enjoy!
