It's GT3 that has the problem
The GTE Aston is much better on the PS4 with Casey's controller suggestions. I guess it's a different deal with a wheel though.

Yeah what i meant but it seems if you're not a super fast guy, or on the top 10 of leaderboards what you say it's not taken seriously.I think Azidahaka trying to say that low steering ratio gives much quicker lock to lock, and with how aggressive aliens are, the responsive steering might increase the scrubbing tendency ( too much angle ) when racing. Personally, IMO steering ratio is driver specific, almost like FFB settings, so I doubt it will be an issue, as there's no absolute correct value.
Best tuner ? No camber tune, glitch tune in Pcars ?

I drove the BAC Mono last night, first time in ages, and was amazed I got no red tyres at all. Seems like the road tyres are unaffected at least.I still don't know why the tyre model was changed in the first place. At first i thought it was a good idea as it kept the game fresh, and made us retweek setups/driving styles, but now it's just a pain, in particular the GT3 cars just overheat. Yesterday for example in an online race, on low fuel in qualifying, the tyres went red after 2 laps, but afterwards on race fuel, they didn't overheat as much, how does that work????
Also the Yellowbird, which before had terrible tyre problems, has now had that reduced....All very strange.
Other cars like the Formula C car, now feel very different to before also, which has rendered my setups as useless now. A painus in the anus! SMS/WMD should be working on removing the bugs and making the game run smoother, not changing things that were perfectly adaquate.

A member of our league just did a PC vs PS4 test on Watkins Glen with the McClaren GT3. Identical track conditions and the tires on PS4 were 22F degree hotter on PS4 over 5 laps. Twenty Two degrees!! How does that get through testing?
I suppose the only answer is weight of fuel ,is giving you extra traction over the real axel
I think I was one of the first to find the camber isu
Exactly oz i think they need to employ us, the first hour i said something was wrong, think i was one of the first to run 0.0 rear cam too
But forget all that its down to our driving
I can explain your low fuel issue. When you add more fuel to the Z4 it effectively moves the weight distribution further backwards since the fuel tank is at the rear. Moving the weight backwards allows the car to rotate better in corners, mainly on entry. So when you take the fuel out your rotating less and this causes understeer and puts more load on the fronts. If you tune a car with 40L or more and you want the same characteristics in say qualifying with 10L, then all you have to do is lower the decel lock by about 5% and maybe reduce the preload one click.The car in question was the BMW Z4 GT3, rear wheel drive, but the rear (driven) axle has nothing to do with the front tyres overheating does it? That's why it's strange to me that on the lighter fuel, the front tyres got hotter than on race fuel.
Also yesterday i hosted a Ginetta GT4 event, with races in the rain, and during qualy, the car had more grip coming out of the pits in the rain on cold wet tyres than in the dry on cold slicks........Is that realistic, i'm not sure,

PC guy here. I haven't really had problems with overheating tyres. They heat up faster, yes, but it's no big deal for me to keep them under control.
I have encountered another issue, however. Now it seems that changing tyre pressures has close to none (if at all) effect on the temperature. So let's say the right front tyre is 5° C too cold, now I'm gonna reduce the pressure by 0.05 bar and see how it works. Nothing happens. Back to the pits, reducing by another 0.05 bar. Still nothing happens. As hot as before. Doesn't matter which tyre you adjust. You can change all four tyre pressure at once and there will still be no effect.
The tyre temperatures will differ regarding the track temperature. But you don't have the chance to adjust according to whether you run a late night session in October in the hot sun of a July afternoon. Your tyres will either be way too cold or overheat and you can't do anything against it.
Has anyone done some testing on this here and can confirm it?
On ps4 I noticed the exact same thing. I also noticed you can go to extreme pressures and still have reasonable grip where as in 5.0 it would have been like you had intermediates on and were sliding everywhere.PC guy here.

I beleive everybody has ,some people more than once ,but also on PC you have 6.1 patch which most users dont have
6.1 doesn't fix anything related to tyre heat, does it?

Online
• NEW – host kick function. The host of an online game can now select to immediately kick a player from the server. Kicked players will be auto-kicked if they attempt to rejoin the same multiplayer session.
• NEW – mandatory pit stop option. The Lobby admin can opt to force a single pitstop during any race.
• NEW – option to set race length by time (also available in Quick Race)
• NEW – ‘Allow Ghosted Vehicles’ option added so that the lobby admin can decide if he wants vehicles ghosted or not when they drive the wrong way.
• NEW – dynamic race-end timer feature. In public races, the timer is 50% of the slowest moving car's lap time. In private races, the timer is 75% of slowest moving car's lap time.
• Fixed an exploit where a player could be awarded a win by jumping the start.
• Fixed an issue where, if the host is forcing realistic driving assists, the player wasn’t able to toggle the allowed assists on or off while in-race.
• Fixed an issue where, if Forced Default Setup is used, the pit crew would not change tyres until they’re completely worn. The tyres will now be changed when at least one tyre is worn down by 25% or more.
• Improved VOIP quality for the in-game chat system.
Career
• Fixed a bug where drivers in a simulated series can all end up with ‘INVALID NAME!’.

Project CARS - PC Patch 6.2 - Steam VAC support
Project CARS now support VAC, Steam's anti-cheat system. If it detects that players are using external cheat mechanisms in mulitplayer such as 3rd party hacking tools, it will permanently ban them from joining "secure" multiplayer sessions in the future. A secure session is identified with a VAC shield icon displayed in the Online Browser. Slightly Mad Studios can also temporarily or permanently ban players from secure multiplayer.
Administrators of dedicated servers can choose whether the server is secure or not in the config (defaults to secure), and peer to peer sessions are created as secure by default, unless a VAC-banned player creates them, then they are insecure.
VAC bans are limited to multiplayer gameplay and do not affect access to offline features of the game.
Please note, for the anti-cheat detector part to work, we need to report any known cheat programs to Valve so that they can add these to their detection list. If you become aware of a new cheat program, please report this to Slightly Mad Studios and we will see that it is added to the list.
