How can I modify this addon car?

vitamin

I would like to make some little adjustments (for my private use only) to Ferrari 312PB addon car for WSC70 mod. And there are two things that I'd like to change:
1. This addon appears in wrong listing. Actually it has its own listing and I'd like to move it to 'Prototypes 3000' list.
2. These cars have no real drivers names - just numbers. So I'd like to change that too.

Could somebody tell me please how to do these fixes? (if it's possible of course)
 
To 1. That depends on the structure of folder/files that are defined and used for the addon and the mod where you want to have it listed. It's not so easy to do when you don't have enough experience with that.

To 2. To change the shown description of the cars, open the *.veh files and edit the needed lines.

For example change
Driver="1"
into
Driver="Nigel Mansell"
 
Thank you very much for your reply. As for listing here's how it looks now:

File structure on hard drive:

In game listing:

I'm not sure but it looks like the folder 'Ferrari 312PB' is in right place but the cars are in separate list. Could you tell me please how to move them to 'Prototype 3000' category where they belong?


UPDATE:
OK, figured it out:) I had to change only one line in veh files:

Category="Prototype 3000,Ferrari 312PB,Prototype 3000"

I got one more problem with this addon - there is no engine sound:(

Here's how 'Ferrari 312pb.sfx' looks like:

// ENGINE SOUNDS (INSIDE)

VS_INSIDE_POWER_ENGINE_1=F312pb\idle1g.wav
VS_INSIDE_POWER_ENGINE_2=F312pb\gtb4\gtb4_onverylow.WAV
VS_INSIDE_POWER_ENGINE_3=F312pb\gtb4\gtb4_onlow.WAV
VS_INSIDE_POWER_ENGINE_4=F312pb\gtb4\gtb4_onmid.WAV
VS_INSIDE_POWER_ENGINE_5=F312pb\gtb4\gtb4_onhigh.WAV

//VS_INSIDE_POWER_ENGINE_1=F312pb\idle1g.wav
VS_INSIDE_COAST_ENGINE_2=F312pb\gtb4\gtb4_offverylow.WAV
VS_INSIDE_COAST_ENGINE_3=F312pb\gtb4\gtb4_offlow.WAV

VS_INSIDE_COAST_ENGINE_5=F312pb\gtb4\gtb4_offhigh.WAV

I checked the paths and all files are in proper place (in 'GameData\Sounds' folder). So what might be wrong?
 
Maybe there is a problem with a customized Sound-path of the WSC70.

Open the *.rFm file of the WSC70 mod and look if there is a SoundDir= entry in the ConfigOverrides section.

If there is an entry like this (e.g.): SoundDir=GameData\Sounds\WSC70
then move the complete soundfolder F312pb into the WSC70 folder.
 
You were right (as usual;)) I moved the F312pb sound folder to WSC70 folder and all sounds are OK now. Thank you very much for your help. It's great to have you here:)
