Stunts Reverse Engineering / What have I gotten into?
February 07, 2010, 04:34:09 PM
Hello all! I found this board a few days ago and having dreamed (literally even) of Stunts modding since I was a kid, I just had to have a go. I'm so impressed by the work that's been done on figuring out the inner workings of Stunts... I don't even. Stressed is amazing and I've obviously started work on a car- a Mercedes 300E, now I'm already trying to bite off more than I can chew with a new mega project. It's top secret right now, but all shall be revealed when completed.

However, I've done about as much of this project as I can at the moment as I have to accept that I'm out of my depth. So I was hoping perhaps somebody could help me. Apologies if my questions are daft or posted in the wrong place, but I would be infinitely grateful if somebody could steer me in the right direction so I don't keep hitting a wall. Erm sorry, that was quite poor.

The first bit I can't manage is, I believe, within the SD?SEL files. I want to both add more cars, and remove some opponents. The latter sounds odd, but I have my reasons. Top secret. I've seen in Zakstunts that it is possible to extend the selection of cars, but I have no idea how.
The other thing is editing the opponent profile text and dialogues- I assume Stressed doesn't interpret all the data in the .RES files, or maybe I'm just doing it wrong, as when I save the modified file, the game crashes when I try to race the opponent.

Anyway, since this is my first post, a little intro. I started playing Stunts in about 1992 and never really stopped. It's been on every computer I've had. In the old days I competed against my brother, these days against my husband, who is as into the game as I am. I also live in Australia and have cats.  :)
