I have been using this mod for several years on new tracks and new circuits. I prefer Brake Trainer 1.1 2020 by AugGust to virtual guideline, although both are important.
What is missing on most circuits is the crossing marks on the trajectory and the kerbs, and the "dry line" when it rains!

So weird how Content manager doesn't install it correctly as the other guy said, it wasn't working, should work if you install it the old way

Hello, thanks for your app, It works very well... for people who hasnt be able to make it work, I found out installing it via CM was omitting some of the .py files, watch the root and the collision folder

By far the best app I have used. Saves so much time learning a new track, it beeps for the braking point which means a corner is coming up to. Wish I found this app earlier.

A great app, really helping me become a better, more consistent driver.
Also, some really fine Python programming. Well done!

Really useful and great work! But app should let to modify slightly the braking points slightly editing the txt. I tried but I could´n understand what numbers mean exactly.

AugGust

If you wanna understand the structure of the save file, look at the "acShutdown" function (line 296) inside brakeTrainer.py. I don't recommend trying to change it manually though, it's just all coordinates and angles, they don't mean anything unless u can visualize them onto the track...

Does exactly what it promises. The beeps are very useful and can be used to indicate braking points even with the app closed.

How freaking cool is it that we can do this in our racing sim(s). It's freedom like this that turns ok games into perhaps the best of its genre. This is why AC will always have my heart and why it has had and will continue to have such a long life in the sim community. Great mod!
