Will be releasing B Class in a day or so, I had some unexpected things keeping me busy but now I have the right head space to continue on the project.
B Class just needs slight BOP adjustments for the 288 GTO Evo (Is slightly too slow) and the Dodge Viper (Abit too slow but it handles really well so I may actually keep it how it is as in PGR4 it isn't that fast on the straights but is one of the best handling in it's class due to being a race/track car).
The XJ220 S is also slightly too fast as during testing it was around 2 seconds faster than the rest of B Class so the power will have to be scaled down along with added weight, though the car will still have it's fast top speed I will reduce downforce slightly as the car while very fast in PGR4 was unstable much like the F1 LM which the updated version is very fast now as it's accelleration exceeds all of the other base game Class A cars with the closest being the F50 GT, Panoz GTR-1 and the Koenigsegg CCR.
Cars are being tested on the following tracks to test BOP and stableness:
Las Vegas 2023 (Benchmark speed and AI overall stableness along with fast paced handling test and solo acceration test)
Nurburgring GP (Tight circuit turning test with AI to see how stable the cars are)
Prague (Elevation and jump stable test)
C Class will also be updated later this week as I recently revisited it and some of the cars need to be adjusted for BOP and the Ruf's can be made more stable.
Will adjust the speed of the Gallardo, F430 and Noble as they seem to be gapped by the F40 and Ford GT. The SLR will also have a small amount of weight shaved off and made to handle abit better but not much as it handles like a tug boat in PGR4.
Also I believe the AI for the RUF Yellowbird may have some wonky values as they don't seem to brake as early as they need to so I will adjust that as the F50 GT also had the same issue until I figured out what was causing it.
The BMW M1 will have it's gear ratios corrected as it can reach over 200 MPH which is way too fast for the car when drafting.
Each car will have the class logo on it's thumbnails and some of the previous cars such as the CLK GTR SuperSport and F1 LM also have completely new samples and more harmonic seamless mixing along with sounding more crisp and louder. I recommend playing with the master volume of this class (A) at around 28-30% as the cars are very loud and having it too high will cause distortion if you record gameplay of some of the cars. This was done to mimick PGR4 where some of the higher tier cars will actually have distortion if the volume is too high.
Cars that will not be included until fixed:
RUF RTurbo (B Class)
RUF R50 SuperCar Concept (A Class)
For some reason the RR layout cars are very hard to get stable and the RUF RTurbo came with very bad physics by default (like the previous CTR2 RUF also did) so it's incredibly tricky to fix. I have a feeling it's linked to the layout or weight distribution which i'm not sure how to change yet as I want to change it to a MR as I feel that may make it stable somewhat as it's very unstable at the moment.
During testing the BOP of the cars is as follows (In all classes):
Opponent strength value:
100 =
Very very difficult but
doable (In a good car with absolutely
no mistakes, and don't let the F50 GT or F1 LM in particular get ahead of you as you won't be able to catch them unless you're in one of the actual GT1 longtail cars, a LMP or the same ones as they are just far too fast.)
90 (Roughly the equivalent of Platinum difficulty in PGR3/4, which means if you're experienced with the car and/or track it should be not too hard but may still be a challenge)
85 = (Gold difficulty, not too hard but is close to probably Above average in Forza Horizon 6)
80 = (Silver difficulty, is easy in basically any car either in the same tier or one tier below that)
75 = (Bronze difficulty, easy mode self explanitory)
70 = (Self explanatory, can beat A Class in as low as a D Class Dodge Viper GTS)
In Championship mode the AI values seem to be bosted from above as the AI on 90 felt like I was racing against them on atleast 100 so I recommend setting the diffculty atleast 5 points from where you're used to as they may prove to be too difficult.
