WTCC 2007 AFSC MidiTweak
----------------------------------------------------
This is one of many (probably...) 'AFSC Tiny/MidiTweak' updates to original contents of Race 07 and it's expansions.
Since the game was made over 10 years ago they had to limit the cpu usage with simplified ai car physics.
This results in a quite slidey/floaty behaviour.
Of course the computers of today could handle a lot more, so there are some potential to unlock in the game.
The aim with these updates is to make the ai cars drive more like real cars and to fix a few errors.
The specs of the cars are not changed (unless it is necessary), and most .dds files are left unedited to keep the original game feeling.
This 'AFSC MidiTweak' includes:
* Added collision feelers for slightly better ai driving control
* Slightly tweaked talent files
* Reduced tail light reflections
* Some slightly updated windows textures
* Team Russian Bears cars are now more white than gray
* Updated some car body normals
* Prepared cars for new custom shaders
* Added files so WTCC 2007 class should work with pitcrews
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
* Updated .tyr file to reduce ai car 'floating', based on ETCC 2002 files (but no complete physics like suspension files etc.).
* Some tweaks to the .hdc files to increase suspension calculations for smoother ai driving and steering behaviour.
* Increased distances for 1st and 2nd LODs.
* Fixed very dark Honda Accord livery textures.
To install, unzip into: ...\race 07\Gamedata\Teams\WTCC_2007
The original .tyr and .hdc files are included if you want to uninstall this 'AFSC MidiTweak'.
