As much as I love Wipeout 3 (it's my favorite racing game ever), I can't stand the opponents. There's only one track in the entire game where they have a reasonable skill level (they're embarrassingly easy to beat on every other course - except for one, in which they're stupidly hard). I wish that the developers had gone to the trouble to implement difficulty selection, but I'll have to settle with hacking.
So, here's what I want to do (ordered by complexity):
Replace all opponent code with code from the track that I like.
Change the default number of contestants per race to eight instead of 12; load all eight ship types instead of just four.
Add difficulty selection from the race menu (hopefully, and only after I've successfully made the other two alterations).
How would I go about this? Which tools should I use?
