FUEL Message Board  

Regarding the Cheats & Hints.

Just in case anyone out there would like the map open to explore in freeroam. same for MP. does allow me to go anywhere and race any race.

Look into your Fuel dir.
go to C:\Program Files\Codemasters\FUEL\GameTsc\Story
and look up hubinfos.tsc. open with notepad.

Look for the line hub infos, and underneath you will see a list of all the hubs to be unlocked.
Look at the end of each line and where you see the word (NONE), you want to change the number just before the (NONE) to the number zero.

example

SetHubTargetInfos "YellowStone" 0 1071 1 0 "NONE"
SetHubTargetInfos "Islands" 1 1072 2 0 "NONE"
and so on until you change all the last numbers to zero. Remember only change the number before the word NONE.

this unlocks all races to be raced on. this does not just unlock the map. you can race anywhere after this. just makes the game think you need zero career stars to unlock all hubs.
Only you need still to get some fast vehicles. or you'll be getting left behind. Have fun.

Peace

A question: IS this game any gud????

Cool it works fine m8 . Just remember to backup the files and the save games aswell as i only did the files and not the saves

ofcourse, sry people. you must backup any file you change.
Including save game. WARNING DO NOT TRY TO EDIT SAVE GAME.
Tried when i first started game to see what i could do. and the game no longer recognized the save file.

I like the game. but its not Grid or TDU. I like to use my G25. and this really does not give you that option.
Which is understandable, but this is more of an arcade game.
In my opinion. its not all that good.
Multiplayer is strange. never seems to be any races going. online freeroam. is, wellll, pretty boring, I hate to say it, but there aint really anything to do. apart from race.

And the races are very good. but the AI seems a little retarded at times. There deffinatly aint no rubber band racing
Not sure how the AI racers are scripted, but they race very unusually. one minute they race fine/normally, the next they seem to be able to NOS past you or, just storm you and leave you behind. either your in 1st or not at all.

Not sure how to rate this game. but for graphics 4/5
gameplay 3/5 the feeling of the vehicles dont seem real. which it should be. even for an arcade type game.
Feals like im back on Ridge Racer for PS1.

Buy the game if your like me. i just love the graphics, and i really like to have authentic sounds. and this game does have some nice sounds.

1 Downside. i noticed alot of ppl wanted the Tornados. one of the reasons alot of ppl want it. they are not in freeroam. only in certain races. i repeat NOT IN FREEROAM. like 4 or 5 races. thats it. apparently.

Well i dont know what else to say really. Game looks great. almost like crysis in places. but has the old racer feel to it.

so if you like grid. and want more grid type games. dont get this.

Oh and what the hell is with the vehicle speeds. WHY SO SLOW. i wanna be doin like 200 mph. not max of 130mph. or does that come later. towards the end lol.

Weighing everything up, i'd have to say:

TDU > FUEL > GRID > PURE

GTR 2 > all

Nice trick, only problem is that it open all the areas for every profile you have, I got 2 profiles, one for online gaming where I don't cheat and one for offline gaming where I love to mess around with trainers. Now I've unlocked a big success in my Online profile saying I opened all the areas even too I didn't (I quickly replaced the file that get the access by the original one I had in backup to get back to normal but still the success is unlocked in my GFWL profile. I think I won't be alone to have this success after all its quite easy to cheat this one.

you can change the trophy needs by opening the "trophy" file in the same address by notepad.
I changed them all but I'm going to see if it worked after i finish posting this but I'm certain that it will work.
