    Hi,
    i noticed for e.g. the Brabham, that the Talent File (.rcd) is (from now?) located into the Car MAS. Should be all Cars now have the Talent File in the Car MAS?

    If this is true, then most of the ISI cars won't be able to have new talents created for them as the car.MAS is locked. Can anyone confirm this?

    Maybe a slight exaggeration, but Formula Renault 3.5 2014, Dallara DW12 and Honda Civic all have locked MAS files.

    The new created files are propably saved in an other location. Locked (encrypted) MAS-files are no barrier; the game can decrypt them.
    Would be bad if it couldn´t! ;)

    When I try to load the DW12_car.MAS, FR35_2014_car.MAS and CIVIC_BTCC_PHYSICS.MAS, files in the MAS file utility it says "Unknown MAS key" and won't open. The other MAS files are fine.

    Brilliant! That's sorted my problems out. Never even thought of trying a different tool for extracting the MAS. I can't believe it was that simple.
    Thank you :)
