I'll say it once, and you should know the usual procedure, but BACKUP the file tha will be modified. It is located under Richard Burns Rally/Cars
Uncheck the file's properties, to make sure the file is no longer 'Read only' . Now open Cars.ini file and replace the Impreza03 with the car you want. (Cars to pick from are listed from 01 to 07) Pick the one you like, and copy/paste its info under the car 05.
For example, we want peugeot 206 instead of Subaru. So, here's what we have for Impreza:
[Car05]
FileName = "Cars\impreza03\impreza03.sgc"
IniFile = "Cars\impreza03\impreza03.ini"
ShaderFile = "Cars\impreza03\impreza03_shaders.ini"
ShaderSettings = "Cars\impreza03\impreza03_shader_settings"
TexturePath = "Cars\impreza03\Textures\"
We paste the information of Peugeot under Car05 from Car04, or the following:
[Car04]
FileName = "Cars\Peugeot_206\Peugeot_206.sgc"
IniFile = "Cars\Peugeot_206\Peugeot_206.ini"
ShaderFile = "Cars\Peugeot_206\Peugeot_206_shaders.ini"
ShaderSettings = "Cars\Peugeot_206\Peugeot_206_shader_settings"
TexturePath = "Cars\Peugeot_206\Textures\"
Very simple, and nice for screenshots purpuses, but useless for anything else really.
Attached is a preview shot. And i'm also attaching original Cars.ini just in case.

I want to see the Impreza 03 in the menu, but with tarmac rims. Is this possible? If yes, how? Thx!

Its easier than that, UrQuattro. You only have to change the number above the info!
For example, to change the Impreza with the Toyota, you only have to change the [Car05](the default impreza03 number) with the [Car06](the number of the corolla), and vice versa (if we dont want our PC go mad... ).

That won't change anything else? Why are all the cars in that file anyway, if it is only used for the menu screen?

i can do it easier, by changing 1 byte in the exe
if you want to try it:
install patch 1.02
open 'RichardBurnsRally_SSE.exe' in any hex editor.
go to offset 0x165DE5 change 05 to something else (00 = xsara, 03 = lancer, etc...)
save the file as something else (eg; RichardBurnsRally_Custom.exe) and you're done
Warning: DO NOT DISTRIBUTE MODIFIED EXE FILES!! this is illegal.

I always wondered why it is illegal to do that, but it's ok to distribute other modified files? Or is it really "illegal" to do that, but the owners " look the other way"

Do you, by any chance, know any more offset locations for interesting hard coded parameters?
I've been looking, drawing a blank so far, for stuff like engine capacity (tied to DummyMax engine IDs) or, more likely, stuff like bore/stroke/number of cylinders.
