Hi,

is the AI even stopping for new tyres?

They done it in a 15 lap race at Silverstone but not in a 30 lap race at Yas Marina...
What are the criterias?

Hope you can help me...

Yes they can stop for tires. You have to make sure the data has an ai_tyres.ini file inside which designates the tires life. About 80% of cars made these days don't have this file.

That helps @Beezer215 , thanx!

In a similar fashion, I could use some help in understanding how ai reacts to fuel and re-fueling.

I made a ten laps race and I won because in the last lap (last meters of the last lap, lol) my opponent went for the pitboxes.
Then I made a 30 laps race and I was the only idiot who went for the pitboxes loosing 8 positions.

Same track (Daytona Road), same cars (Gt4 pack)

I've been like crazy looking for a bmw e46 m3 csl, but without success. I know there was one on discord, but it was deleted... Can someone help me? Maybe send me a pm? Thanks.

Hi Zand, all,

not csl version (don't have that one), but I do have a 5 star BMW M3 E46 Track "T3"
(folder name bmw_m3_e46_track3) which can be found here

I also made a AWD version of this with some extra skins, which you can download here
cheers and enjoy,
Jac0

You can't make custom previews - CM will throw the 'no memory' error every time. Update preview -> option works... Only once. Then you can't save the preview as CM will crash. Hard.
In-game ? The bonnet camera is not even placed right (you're sat on the engine, for some reason). Invisible bonnet, too, from that POV.
Brake lights apparently don't exist in Turkey.
I'm not raging about the encryption because with guys like EASY around appropriating other people's work there's no other way but at least see if everything works right lol. It's the same encryption as lorelord's and MNBA's mods, meaning you should be able to see the car in showroom and make previews but you can't.


It could've been a 10/10 mod if it was optimized and finished. But it's not. And it is the first and only mod I have installed that crashes CM every time lol

Didnt have any problem changing the preview. Havent tried the car yet tho, so cant tell for the other points.

 

[jac0]

What's with Turkish modders and them releasing mods that break CM ?
The AMG Hammer found on Facebook (FH4 port) being the worst offender.

Maybe @petercrill will make one that won't be a steaming pile of dog **** in the future ?

hi, i was about to try out that AMG Hammer... but then i'll first ask : what do u mean "break CM" ?
(can i backup something before giving it a go ? or should i really just not be tempted at all to run this mod ? )

EDIT: never mind, i saw your earlier statements thx to the post above that crossed w mine. ps: i was able to make custom reviews... (but cm does crash after 1 or 2 ... then i need to restart CM before i can make another skin and custom preview)

EDIT2: If you want, here 4 extra skins i made for this beauty.

But indeed , the brake lights are not functioning propperly.
Anyone can post an altered ini file so that the lights go on when hitting the brakes?
(regular lights are visible quite clearly w this one, even without PP , so if that would become the brake lights, it would be usable for as workaround)

Thanks to ZombieBoy1978's suggestion for finding trees, it's slowly coming together. I think summer looks a bit too warm and i'm torn on whether to leave the faded vintage look or go with a more realistic color depth. Or it could just be my ppfilter of choice. Too many variables to consider.

[racinjoe013]

Would like a quick opinion of these two pics and determine interest if I should bother with another Sandevoerde update or just use this myself. I'm not a fan of the deeper, richer look to the textures SL used on the 73 version of the track. They don't blend as well as the 60's versions. So I messed around with lightening the grass masks. Which do you prefer or should I shoot for something in the middle of these two? And I just noticed i've gotta do something with those distant bush textures. Thanks as always for any feedback...

@racinjoe013

I really appreciate your ideas for improving these vintage tracks, it's very much appreciated.

However, I'm having a really strange experience with the Zandvoort ones in that I just cannot get it to load the extension file for the life of me. I'm no novice with AC and have plenty of experience tinkering with files, but doesn't matter what combo of skins or the different configs I try, I'm having absolutely no joy.

Not expecting you to troubleshoot that BTW, it's clearly something on my end, just letting you know why I'm not feeding back on some of your WIP, however much I'd like to!

Be more clear, what do you mean? You do not like em or simply you can't make them work?

Maybe you could try language that's a little more friendly? ☹️

I took the Merc for a test drive yesterday and the brake lights worked fine for me (CSP 0.1.78p1, SOL 2.2.1, PURE).

I noticed an issue on the other end of the car: the headlight wiper pivots are incorrect, so the animation looks weird.

Spoiler: wipers

 

[Rodger Davies]

I can't get them to work. Just with this circuit. Latest CSP preview. No idea why.

Dude I was just trying to understand don't compare me to Putin what a shame

Have you tried to analyse the track inside content manager?

 

[xezez]

No problem. I wasn't trying to offend you. I just thought the tone of your question could have been a little more friendly, especially as a newcomer.

And besides that, I'm probably a bit grumpy today myself. I'm a bit tired of all the bad news in the news and have this fading idealistic hope that if people could actually be a little nicer to each other, then the world wouldn't be in such a 🤬 mess.

In a similar fashion, I could use some help in understanding how ai reacts to fuel and re-fueling.

Then I made a 30 laps race and I was the only idiot who went for the pitboxes loosing 8 positions.

Same track (Daytona Road), same cars (Gt4 pack)

The only way I founded to "force" the Ai to pit or not is with the fuel consumption : basically, you set a practice on a track with, for exemple, "fuel consumption x5", get out the pit with full tank, and see how many laps you need to empty it. So you will need to lap more than that on a race with the Ai in order to "force" them to pit. And don't forget to let them run a few laps in practice or Quali before the race, so they could optimized their fuel usage.

And yep, I too think it's a shame that we don't have a "one pit stop minimum required" option for the race setup...

 

[Berganzio]

Im Sorry

I'm sorry For you but I have to say that it is your problem if you feel uncomfortable today, not of us. I simply asked and I don't like that someone will judge my very normal question trying to justify this through a "bad day feeling".
Thank you for your advice but this time is no help.


Edit: 😒

Thanks. You've just proven to me that my hope for reconcilliation between people is utterly futile.

Have a nice day.

So, what started as a badly formulated and a bit too aggressive question, most likely due to an unfortunate language barrier, because not everybody here is fluent in english, is slowly turning into a "psychologist" life lesson provided by experts...

Thanks, Alguecool...I'll mess with with your findings a.s.a.p.

It is not a psychologist life lesson. More than everything is a request to stop complaining. That's it. I don't want to argue with it.

When you say doesn't load, does AC crash when you try and use it or does the game load but the track looks weird? If it crashes, what is the error?

I"m not sure what could be wrong. I didn't change anything from the original other than to add my seasonal adjustments and change the grassfx. Try doing a couple of things. Copy just the seasonal entries and paste them into the original ext_config and see what happens. If it doesn't work, then copy just the grassfx entries into the original and see what happens. If that doesn't work, i'm stumped. Only other thing I could think of is did you remove the sound fx files SL put in the original extension folder. My ext_config still has entries to them in it so if you removed the files, maybe it's causing the track to crash.

Has Steve Stirpe ever made a BAD mod?!?
Even his bonkers cars (900hp M3), are believable and driveable.
Guy's a living lesson to car modders, imo.

Does he actually 'make' mods?
Might be wrong but I thought he takes Kunos cars, updates some shaders, and puts NASA-surplus engines in them?

You're almost certainly right about "make" mods, if you only include (as you imply) the NARROW definition as "make-from-scratch-aka-a-blank-sheet". I think there are very few who could honestly sit in those rarefied seats.
The most impressive aspect of his mods, is not the models (or their provenance), nor the NASA engines (also not a cornerstone of the body of his work), cos even I can edit a power.lut, so that's not saying much. For me (YMMVACD) it's the balance and driveability, and realism, and feel... And I seem to have exhausted my vocab in this regard.

Serious, non-aggressive question: Do you not like him? Or is it just my opinion that offends you? (Edit: Pardon, two questions)

I'm not sure what I said might lead you to believe I don't like him (I don't know him... I have no opinion either way) or that your viewpoint might offend me (why on earth would it?).
I was simply stating my own opinion on the cars themselves, based on my own experiences with them.
And please, I didn't 'imply' any narrow definition about scratch made mods. Those are YOUR words and YOUR projection. Please don't try to interpret my words like tealeaves at the bottom of a cup and then attach your own definition to them.
I think rather than 'make mods' (by any definition you choose), a better description might be that he mainly 'edits' existing AC cars? Nothing wrong with that at all, a lot of people do it, and it obviously makes you happy. But they seem to be mainly massive powertain upgrades, which isn't for me. That doesn't make them bad, or him a bad person. That's all I was saying.
Maybe we're discussing semantics, nothing more.
