GT4 IA-15 recreation in GT7

[JeyM]

Ah **** here we go again ... Everytime you go to the Nordschleife in your homologation special Mercedes-Benz, a strict german track marshall wants you to follow a Nissan Safety Car to check your pace. Follow him, but don't overtake him.

Follow these instructions to recreate the famous licence test. The Safety Car has a useful feature for this recreation, if you're getting too close it will put the turning signal on and slow down, forcing you to stupidly slow down like the GT4 test.

Managed an 08.11.xxx

I strongly presume you didn't cope with the rules.

 

[GTWorld15]

I did a 8:36:xxx (first run)

 

[JeyM]

Not far from gold I see

I don’t agree with the chosen parameters. The Nissan is too powerful, and don’t have the expected behavior, and the Mercedes doesn’t have the right handling due to the tyres.
+ the boost didn’t exist on the original test.

Of course not, the R34 was absolutely cruising in GT4.

You can't expect the same behavior of the GT-R Safety Car since in GT4, it adapts to the player level. In GT4, you can gold the test in 8:32 or 8:55, the GT-R will be just in front of you at the finish line. This complex behavior is impossible to reproduce with a simple custom race.
Same for the Safety Car beeing too powerful, I'm limitated with what the game offers to reduce the power.
Weak boost is set so the AI performs better.
