Hello. I'm trying to figure out how to change opponents during Race/Duel/Hot Pursuit events. In the vanilla game, they're basically tied to events (every time you play a race, you have the same opponents).

What I want to do is find the AI cars codes in the game's memory and replace them with custom ones. So far I've tried searching for 4-byte values which correspond to the vehicles' file names.

The file names look like this:

VEH_XXXXXX_MS.BIN
VEH_XXXXXX_ENCMP.BIN

Where the XXXXXX is the car code. If I search for these "XXXXXX" values in CE, I get a few results and they change when I change races. The problem is that when I try to edit them manually, either nothing happens or the game crashes. So far I haven't been able to replace a single AI opponent with a custom one.

I've also tried searching for VEH_XXXXXX_MS and VEH_XXXXXX_ENCMP strings, but editing those values doesn't do anything either.

Any help, guys?
