PRAIANO'S TUNES : SETTINGS FOR GT7

We're all aware of the 1st gear ratio bug introduced with one of the recent updates. I'm hoping someone can help me understand something.

This is the Ferrari F50 with Praiano's 1.35 tune applied. See the first gear says a speed of 86 kph.

Check out the video below. Look at the speed that the car goes to in first gear. A lot more than 86.

What does the 86 actually mean if it doesn't represent the top speed for the gear?

It seems that the limiter is not working for the writen speed on 1st gear. Actually it's 120kmh on the video. Only the last gear can pass over the RPM limit. I really don't know, i'll do some test later.
 
It actually gets to 137kph before redlining.

The end result is the bug is negated and it drives fine without requiring any gearbox adjustment. So I’m not complaining. I’d just like to understand it…

Will look at some other cars with "bugged gearboxes and see if the same phenomenon exists. Would be good if others could do the same and report back.

From experience it seems it's the graph that matters, not the top speed number, so you'll still have the old setting as long as you don't change the first gear.
 
What do you mean by "still have the old setting?"

For example, in your setup the game changed the numerical top speed to 86 kph, but the graph remained at its original setting of 130 kph or so (whatever you had set up before the update). As long as you don't adjust the first gear, the graph will not be updated with the new speed (86 kph), and 1st gear top speed will remain as it was before the update. You can still adjust final drive without breaking the old setting, but that's about it.
 
Ahhh gotcha! Thanks so much for explaining! So does that mean the bug is only graphical and doesn’t affect any of the actual 1st gear performances?

It is very likely that is exactly what it means. Less graphical bug and more just the digits displayed for speed. You could match Praiano's tuning but ignore the number it shows for the top speed on 1st gear. Set it to the other number suggested (3.390 in the Ferrari F50 tuning) and very likely the speed displayed is bugged. But check the graph image and make sure it matches Praiano's. Should see no change in performance. I won't be home for a day to test this or I would.

EDIT: or if it doesn't let you do the 3.390, you would set gears 2 and above and set the final gear. Then move first gear to a spot that the graph has similar spacing and the height of each of the lines to match the graphic from Praiano's gearbox.

Hey, long term user of your setups and love them. Was wondering if you could do one for the Mazda Atenza Gr3 car under bop regs? Been given it at random for a Gr3 series.
Many thanks in advance if you do

You know that the only BOP Applied Gr.3 event don't allow any settings. Are you talking about ONLINE lobby events ?
 
Suzuka is the first round
I'll do something. What are you're skills or DR ? Also the kind of race ? Sprint or longer race ?...
It's important to let the car with a free end and very performant , or more safe and still performant (around 0.200 slower) , or very safe with around 0.400 slower than the first one.

I'll be honest, it was AS but I haven't touched sport mode in over a year. Had enough of being rammed off.

Mazda Atenza Gr.3 - BOP - Suzuka- 1.47

Special request but can fit any other grip/speed oriented track. Just need to taylor gears for any other place.

Enjoy your drive.
 
Hi Praiano, I have a special request, I have a race on sunday for the renault 4L in lago magiore occidental inverse, i have a limit on 444pp, i tested your setup just adding a bit of balast and it was great for going round in 1.07 but other people are doing 1.06 low, any sugestions?? Thank you for your great work!!
 
Problems with my wheel Fanatec DDPro. No acceleration , no brakes and no gears. Only wheel inputs ok.
The plug back the base was very lose, no little click to maintain the cable. It was was half out of the way and cause this incident. Now i've glued it to this stupid cable stay in his position

444PP is very close of my 450PP , it's ok the way it is , sorry , but i can't turn it faster , i already try during i made this setting. Perhaps you can taylor the gears to fir better the track.....
 
Second race at 10PM was a better race. We had the same pace with the leader and we did a thrilling race.
Lap 1 he was in first position trying to let me 1 second after , but i resist very well and stay in his stream till last straight, then i stay 1 position for a moment , he overtake again at turn 1.
It's ok for me , at this moment i prefer to stay behind putting more pressure.
It work very well and lap 2 he put a wheel in the grass out of Flugplatz , spin and stay between 5 and 4 seconds till the finish line.
Good point , 266 if i remember well. Let's train for next round on Interlagos.

Perhaps this is sacrilege in Praiano's thread but at 444pp you usually don't need fully customisable suspension, better to spend those pps elsewhere imo.

There is no where to gain. The car is already maxed and you can gain only 0.20PP only using stock suspension. You'll only lose eagerness. The best way is to stay with 100% power and add +-32 kg ballast for 444PP.

That's true with Sports Hards on, but pp is odd isn't it? On Sports Mediums, you gain 5pp by removing the customisable suspension.

I don't know if SMs are allowed in this 444pp race but the extra grip also means you can use Sports brakes instead of racing.

Then I think it's just personal preference whether you use a bit of rear downforce or a bit of ballast to reduce the pp to under 444.

This setup was faster for me, albeit I only did a brief test on pad and I'm no A+ driver. Hope you don't mind me posting it, happy to remove if you do. :)

Good morning Ive been away from GT7 for awhile. And I notice Ive miss some updates, Ive tried to use some of your tunes , but I have a problem with the transmissions. Is there a certian way or something I miss. Thank you

The latest big patch mucked it all up when it comes to 1st gear. So for some of his tunes you need to bump the top speed setting up really high, into the 300km+ or even 400km+ some times for it to allow you to set 1st gear to the lower ratio.
 
Did you try the Evo 9 with engine swap?
All of the engine swaps are found on page 1, post #2 of this thread.

Here is the tune for the Evo IX with engine swap.
