What the hell is going on with the ai lately?!

Without changing anything, they’re not pitting at all now after a handful of laps during practice and qualifying.
In the races, they’re rejoining the races after teleporting back to the pits, when this didn't happen up until a few days ago.

In a strange turn of events I reinstalled SOL back again today along side Pure 0.238 because I felt the clouds and the way the sky looked better using SOL planner than in pure. However I am sure you can customize these things just never tried to go in depth
with all the advanced settings Pure has to offer I am sure it can achieve much more that what I use it for.

Here is my latest test using SOL for weather instead of pure. Set video playback quality to 1080p for best visuals.


Look at the Sky here using SOL planner it looks realistic. For some reason I can't get the same cloud look with pure planner.

I also use SOL planner 2.5 with PURE since day 1 and really am happy with the results.

Welcome aboard to the "wtf you broke up?! I don't done anything!" AI train, choo-choo!

Sorry for joke, but this topic also makes me (and others too) really cause I don't understand - what could gone wrong and broke the behavior of the AI. %)

I've been trying to figure it out for a week now, but it's probably just how the stars came together.

If it's this what you mean:

Go to page 21 in sol config and increase ta_fog_distance %, which is what I suggested for the Mt Fuji too. the app wil save this per track...

Yes!, that did it. Thank you all for your help.

Is there a way to not make the AI teleport to the pits when they spin out? AFAIK the damage is not enabled yet whenever they get pit maneuvered by another ai or spin out they give up most of the time unless they are turned the right way after the crash.

Check AI apps by Nuzzi on RD and on his Patreon - he have solution to this.

 

[lorelord]

does anyone know of an app or way to copy the ai setups?

as i understand the ai on 100% difficulty will do their own setups after a practice/qualification session.

is there a way to copy the setups they then use?

looks like Codemasters trees from DiRT.

option 1 - try normals up and alpha_blend
option 2 - delete them, forever, all of them
option 3 - plant new trees (see option 2)

Thanks, man. I actually think I might have those other ones you noted. I'll switch it up.

I only have one 1970 nascar (possibly) from legion. So you probably already have the superbird. Doesn't make for a fun grid with only the one.... and then I have the 1971 nascar carset that most of us have already probably. If you find any 1970s, let us know. I would be interested.

Ye, its been some weeks that I'm searching for a 1970 Nascar mod. I know that there was a AC nascar group on Facebook that could have a mod for that year, but this group simply vanished - and I cant find any more info about them

The file to change driver names is the ui_skin.json file in the skins folder.
But there are instances where there is no such file, yet car has a driver+name+nationality.
Where does that come from?
Is there another file where names orginate?

No. Just rename the skin file (through the CM) and you will be able to edit the name, team, number, etc...

All the cars come with a JSON file, because its a standard document in a skin file. But some people dont edit it (adding the necessary info) - and thats why some of the JSON files are blank.

I test drive my modded cars at ksMonza "66" with an October date and the fall colors where great. I've updated to Pure 2.50 with 0.2.3 preview 1 and have lost the fall colors. Am I doing somthing wrong? I was using CSP 1.60, I know it was old version but it worked good for me. My Racinjoe013 fall track mods don't seem to work either.

As someone said before (he has not got any like, I wonder why, lol), the problem is are:

All together; CM, CSP, SOL, PURE, PP Filters, and a couple more.
Every time one have an update, screws something, making people losing more time to fix, than playing.

Nothing wrong with updating for better any feature, unfortunately it seems to affect other APPs and features.
Honestly, I hope this start heading to a better end, or will be a never ending story. Really.

That's the thing, sometimes there isn't JSON file.
How do I solve that?

I've been bored at work recently. What do you guys think? I haven't finished it yet

 

[Fuzo]

jac0 I tried to fix that z-fighting at Zolder, but it looks like I made it worse

Quikslvr grass was not touched for 1.2 update AFAIK Asphalt was touched though, but just very slightly

I will look on both issues again when I will have some time.

 

[Fanapryde]

anyone else can confirm Z-fighting on the new version of rt_zolder on the big billboard above the start/finish?
Also the asphalt is lighter on the newer version, which does not look better imho...

(I went back to v1.01 from 1.2 because of these issues, I don't find it an improvement over the older version... )

There's absolutely no Z-fighting on my side here (v1.2)

@interminded : just add one from another, and change to your liking.

I've tested v1.2 in VR with my Oculus Rift and there is z-fighting of the "Chrisal / Kurina" and "State of Art Racing" billboards at the start-finish straight.

Must be a VR thing then, no issue on my triple screen setup, steady as a rock.

Just go to another car´s folder that has JSON file. Copy and paste in your car folder. Open the file (it´s just a text file) and modify as you wish with driver names, team names, nationality, car number, etc. Then save and close. That´s all.

Actually there is one file that is different on Zolder 1.2 vs the older version that makes the grass more yellow and saturated.

Zolder 1.2 uses a diffuse texture for the main grass areas named bathground.dds. Version 1.01 used a texture named bathgrounddesat.dds that was just a desaturated version bathground.dds. A simple fix might just be to include a small Grass track skin that has the bathgrounddesat.dds in it for those that prefer the less saturated grass. That's what I made for myself.

 

[Chem_Flummi]

I decided to add 2 new features:
The car got the double rear wing and the rear bumper with more vents.
Both things will be available per skin via an [INCLUDE:...] line in your skins config.
Template skins for all combinations are included as well (including recalculated AOs forcthe adjusted car parts).
So it is possible now to recreate an even higher amount of skins more realistic!

Most things are done, not too long to wait for you anymore!

Open the CM > CONTENT > CARS > (CAR YOU WANT TO EDIT THE JSON) > SKINS > (OPEN THE SKIN YOU WANT TO EDIT) > CHANGE THE NAME OF THE SKIN (its the name on the top of the skin preview) > SAVE - after that, it will generate a new JSON file.

In some really rare cases, a car can´t save the changes on name and can´t generate a new JSON file. This happens because of some encrypted data that corrupts any changes in the skin names.

it is, its the conversion from gabenhood, i cant find the v3 version, so im trying to fix the v2

Jumping in here to share that I have stumbled on an interesting blog which is a bit of a hidden gem chronicling motorsports in Southeast Asia during the colonial and post-colonial era.

Is there a simple way to increase the starting grid with 1 or 2 extra cars.
For a 1950 championship I have exchanged the Reims Gilles75 to the much better made 23pits/grid @RMi_wood track (thanks btw for creating), but I need a 24 cars layout. According to two postings at reddit this can be simple done using CM, but they did not publish the method.
Is this true and how to do?

Not in front of pc ATM but if I recall correctly Simply under the track description increase number in the box "starting grid"

Édit: tipo

are you talking about the UI_track.JSON file in the UI folder.
