'Declining' as in getting worse, as in 'not as good as when AC first launched', the inference being that CSP has made AI worse?
Opponent AI was never one of AC's strong points, but is it actually getting worse, or does it just seem that way because other more recent sims have improved things over the past 12 years?
I see lots of vague complaints here and elsewhere about generically 'bad AI', but what specifically are the main issues?
If an actionable report is to be made then clearly defined details will be needed, not only about what actually happens to what cars and on which parts of what tracks, but also what AI strength, aggression etc are being used, and whether any AI apps (or any apps that might indirectly affect AI) are active, what weather is in play etc etc etc.
I don't know, maybe hardware even plays a part if a particularly weak CPU is being used.
Ilja always needs as much detail as possible so that he can try to replicate the same circumstances at his end to better understand what's going on.
It's also always better to use vanilla unmodded Kunos content (cars and tracks) for testing, and disabling all homebrew apps. Mods in any form might actually be causing (or at least contributing to) the perceived problem.
I play exclusively offline and actually have enjoyable races against the AI. However i wish the skill slider went to 120% as they are way too slow at 100. Stretched grids help but i can't run long races as you can easily do last to first in just a handful of laps.
That being said, i only run 19 opponents due to my middling laptop.

I too play exclusively offline and I find the AI to be dependent on things like track, hints and even cars or mods and the maker of said mod. But when you get a combination that works, it's great fun. I've gone back and watched replays of say a 30 lap race where there have been what could be viewed as genuine racing between AI cars for a spot over a number of laps, but again so much depends on a number of factors.

While I'm here...

Another grid filler for the IMSA fans, the #57 Mercedes AMG of Winward Racing in the 2026 black & blue livery for the rss_gtm_mercer_v8 complete with driver and crew.

You could add a hint to ai_hints.ini and set the value to 1.2, I think that could probably work

I also play offline only. I find the AI to be quite capable, as I am not that fast :). The AI Whisperer App is a game changer. I love this game and all I can say is this..

With the version of CSP I am using (preview 361 I believe) and all the tweaks that I have made, Assetto Corsa is the best racing game, the most fun of all the racing sims in my library...and I have them all. Long live AC. :cheers:

You're forgetting the most important factor: the driver's skill. For those of us who are klutzs behind the wheel, almost any combination seems like a challenge... 😅

Jokes aside, is true it depends a lot on the mod combination; sometimes it’s boring if you easily take the lead after just a few laps, while at other times you have to sweat blood just to keep pace with the AI cars...

A great example of the latter is our beloved Littlebird; personally, I’ve enjoyed some memorable races—especially hearing those chirping that signaled the engine was about to blow from over-revving just to keep up with that damn AI. I actually miss those chirps... 🥲
 
Since using CSP 0.3.0-preview595 and Pure 3.56 I have an issue with specific tracks.
Both I found are Pyer tracks. Interlagos and Suzuka.

All the concrete fences are missing and there are strange gaps/relections in some places.
If I drive into these strange spots, the car falls through.

Any thoughst anyone?
I already tried re-installing the tracks.

Going back to CSP 0.3.0-preview581 solves the problem, but it cost me about 10% fps.
Would realy like to use 0.3.0-preview595, so if anyone has an idea what causes the issue I would be very thankfull.

@Perico Lospa It's not really joking at all. The older I get, the slower the reflexes, the more challenging it is for sure. F1 mods... forget it. I've relegated myself to GT's at the best of times and I think that has a lot to do with the degree of "satisfaction" as to how the AI behaves as well.

F1 mods are much easier to drive than GT cars. So much grip, so much better braking. It's like in real life. When Keke Rosberg (Nico's father) retired from F1 and started driving DTM, he said "this feels like being a cab driver now".

Whenever I go back to street cars and GT cars from F1 mods, you have to re-learn everything again. :D
 
Is there any mod out there of Thermal Club circuit, that is not the COTA extension of Loganmanex, or it will be in the near future, as well as a mod of the MotoGP Adelaide layout?

Though i'd post this, Dave over at URD apparently have an Porsche 993 in wip stage, Very old probably dating back to the rF2 days of URD considering they were making an GT1 mod pack for that game that ended up getting shelved.

Maybe we'll finally see an proper version of this amazing machine in the future :mischievous:

There are several AC mods of this car. I'm not an expert with the street cars on AC. How do these mods rank? I wouldn't mind driving the air cooled GOAT 911 on AC, either.


964 Turbo 3.6 is actually pretty good on EVO. They have managed to implement the famous "pendulum swing" pretty well. 993 had Weissach rear axle so while the "swing" is still there, it should not be quite as aggressive as on the 964 3.6.

Medicore at best. If you want to actually drive an 993 GT2 car then we don't have anything available that is good that even is close to representing the real car. Visually they are fine, but that's about it. But if one is desperate. F302's is the best one. At least until either URD makes one or @ItsHords wakes up from slumber and finally goes ahead with his version to rival the Saleen.

Yep, I'm convinced we're not getting a proper 993 GT2 Evo mod. They're either shelved, canceled, private, an old model, or just plain wrong. Also not sure if its the perspective of the picture or my eyes (both maybe), but why does the grill look wrong? The cut offs have a weird angle, they're suppose to be strait.

I would like to see a proper 993- wait... I just had a memory surfaced mid-sentence and brought this up before. https://www.gtplanet.net/forum/threads/assetto-corsa-pc-mods-general-discussion.307899/post-13204563

I believe @ItsHords was gonna make/request one with the proper configurations that I asked for years now, but... -> #156,523

Seen it and i'm kinda hoping that URD goes ahead with it, Means it will actually be made in good quality compared to our stuff. Also i still check in here once in a while so not really slumbering, to much complaining about stuff that isn't fun to read xd.

Might change, Nuvo has been given full access to an brand new encryption for .kn5 files and if anything he releases in the future isn't decrypted in a year and URD hasn't released the 993 (it's most certainly NOT coming out this year or next year... most likely not even in 5 years given URD's current work load) then i'll actually go ahead and make ours available to the public.

How do you feel about the Taisen Performance one? I know it's a 993 GT2 Evo, so slightly different car but still worth calling out I feel.

Physics is decent, But the 3D model is...well something. It's Forza model with the RWB kit on it. It's not good 3D wise imo. Only really good for grid filling if you are seriously desperate.

:indiff::indiff: I didnt start AC for a few weeks , now installed a bunch of car mods,latest CSP and Pure fix I found.
Also I think Virtual Desktop got an update a few days back...

And sure enough : I do not get into my offline session anymore! No error message , nothing, just load screen indefinitely till I hit escape.

This is the eternal PC update nightmare that drives people to buy Playstations!!!!

Anyone experienced the same and found a fix?
