Anyone good with car AI? Just managed to cut about 1.5s off of their laptimes but they are still really slow (even for a van).

Not sure if its just a limitation of AC, watching onboard they seem to be doing all the right things, the lines (testing at Barcelona) seems really bad in places which isn't helping.

That's the bastard who delivered my new glass kettle last week!

In my experience cars without downforce can be tuned more edgy for the AI, with the hint values closer to 1 or even above it (like tire hint seems to control how soon and how heavy the AI leans in the gas on corner exit)

Yeah I found going quite a lot above 1 for tyre hint (think I settled on 1.2) gained a lot of time, about 1.5s at Barce. Still quite a long way off though, but better than it was.

Hilarious, made my day!

LOL that looks like something out of BeamNG

Hope so! Pretty nice view being to high up in VR, takes a little getting use to where the wheels are (expect to clip the barriers when starting a Nords tourist lap!)

Testing going well I see

RIP springs

I think this could quite possibly be the most anticipated mod in the history of AC!

 

[garyjpaterson]

Dunno about that, most overdue maybe

That could be why it's so anticipated though... hype train!
Everyone wants to see if they can beat Sabine around the Nordschleife

Looking great anyways. Seriously we are all looking forward to it!

HR to LR interior, 105k down to 10k. Brings the total tris from about 240k to 145k and cuts down draw calls quite a bit LOD B next.

 

[Mascot]

Gary, does your Transit have clever anti-gravity floating wing mirrors like this one?

Is it too late to add them?

 

[garyjpaterson]

Spot the difference

 

[garyjpaterson]

Bet this makes it a bit easier

CM reports it as 238k > 33k tris.

 

[Porsche962C]

The reflection is different?

 

[cerebralvortex]

Can't tell the difference on the model.. just wow !

 

[garyjpaterson]

LOD C done now too, quick test shows performance is in a pretty good place - compared against an equally thicc boat, the Cayenne.

Definitely starting to look rough but at 40m its just fine

 

[garyjpaterson]

And with that, its finished.

LOD D right there in the middle^
