Rocket Racers Car

Hello, and welcome to RRU!
 
With the original game, it isn't possible (at least as far as I know) to get his car. However, we can use any bricks/chassis on our own cars by simply modding the game:
 
To mod the game, you will first need to download either >UNGTC or >Developer Mode Patcher (I recommend DMP since you don't have to rebuild the GAMEDATA.gtc file in your LR2 directory). Once you have installed either one and extracted the .gtc file, you can use all of the bricks and chassis (including ones that you couldn't normally access) by following the directions in >this topic.

When you say "extract the .gtc file" what exactly do mean? Do you mean delete it?

 

UNGTC doesn't work on my computer for some reason, so I don't exactly know how to extract the .gtc with that, but i'm pretty sure it works the same as Developer Mode Patcher.

 

Anyways, if you've already downloaded DMP, you will first want to make sure that the .zip folder is extracted. This can be done by simply right clicking on the .zip and then choosing the extract option. Once you have done that, run LR2DeveloperPatcher.exe. A small window should pop up. Next, click on Browse and choose the Lego Racers 2.exe file in your LR2 directory. Also make sure that Lego Racers 2 is selected and that Extract gamedata is checked. Finally, click the Patch button. Once the extraction is complete, a folder titled "game data" will appear in your directory. From there, you can make any changes to the game you want without having to rebuild a new .gtc file. Whatever you do, do not delete the .gtc file.

 

I hope this helps :)

Absolutely!

 

So once you've downloaded an extractor, you will need to find the location the .zip was saved to. If your web browser is firefox, you should see the .zip in C:users(your username)downloads. But if you use another browser that allows you to choose where to save a file, the .zip will be wherever you saved it to. If you don't remember where you saved it, just download the extractor's .zip again and save it anywhere where you won't lose it. After the download is complete, go straight to the .zip's location and extract the file from there. Once the .zip is done being extracted, a new window should open up with the unzipped folder. If you don't get this window, you will most likely find the folder in the same location as the .zip. Go in that folder and then you can run the .exe and extract the .gtc

It is also possible via memory editor to add RR Car as ome of your "car creator cars". Since chassis/wheels/bricks/brick pos are saved as those.

You can do it by finding the address of the car you want to replace in the memory editor (those are static for every Carslot in Car Builder / Adventure Mode) and save it.

I added the addresses into a CT and uploaded it.


F8 is used as hotkey to automaticly change the Value to the Rocket Racer Car
Download
This CT only includes the Car 1 of every World in Car builder. (If you want Car 2/3/4 just add "+2FA" for each slot at the end of the address i.e. {"LEGO Racers 2.exe"+***+2FA+2FA} for Car 3) - NOT the Adventure Cars.
Keep in mind that the Car on your first Car Builder slot of each world will be REPLACED (The first car you built yourself - not the basic preset cars like the digger etc.).
If you start a new Adventure/New World in Adventure Mode/Quickrace you are able to select the Rocket Racer Car in the prebuilt Cars.



And then replace the Hex with RR's Car Hex

You have to do this for all 5 Worlds - it works in Adventure Mode.
(The RR Car can't be rebuilt exactly otherwise... even if you unlocked all parts via modding - the brick positions are off)


For the people that want to play as Rocket Racer in Adventure mode I made this Savegame

Dear Experts,

Thank you for your advice. We have now successfully run the .exe program but we cannot see how to extract the .gtc file. Can you help us with this please.

Thank you.

It's ok. I've worked it out now. Thanks a lot for your help! :)

A) Use Cheat Engine to set your character parts to him, or

B) Swap out the head model and textures of a player character set with his.

I would prefer the latter aka letter B but how to do it?

I've seen you replacing player character textures + head model(s) with custom ones before... Just get Rocket Racer's head model, and his head/torso/legs textures, and replace some of the player character stuff with them.

Sorry for being a newbie but do I need to overwrite it by changing to let's say Player one's textures?

For example. change text from RocketRacers face to Playerone's face.

Yes. And the MD2 in HEADS\MODELS or wherever they all are, as well (which is the head + hat/hair/helmet model).

Other way around.

I copied the textures from Player one to Rocket racer but it shows a white face with no print and after a few seconds, it crashed

Again, other way around... Copy from Rocket Racer to Player One (or whichever player you want to replace). And copy, don't cut or delete the originals.

My fault. I was suppose to:

1. copy all Rocket Racer textures first

2. paste it in a new folder

3. change text to any player and

4. copy and paste it back to where it was. characters/heads/textures, bodies/textures, etc.

All fixed, sorry for the trouble back there. Again, still new to this modding thing but I already know how the basics work. Thanks.

I ended up using this save file to play as Rocket Racer 2, but I'd like to change my name and also the in-game portrait (during conversations in Adventure Mode) and pieces used to build the character.
I know I can simply replace the character pieces with Rocket Racer's files, but I do not know which pieces are used by this save file.
I'm not at all experienced with Cheat Engine so if anyone could help me out, I'd greatly appreciate it.
