1.2 released !!

Same here. It was strange (read different) at first but after adapting to it driving is much more rewarding now. Great stuff!

 

Gtbh With 1.2 ffb don't seem too much different and wtf has Kunos done to the the cars whilst cornering the sim has changed a hell of a lot over night mostly for the good but still Abit of bad I feel . Like previous post said what has changed the handling characteristics of cars in the corners stephano? And zanvoort is OK but feels like a retarded vallunga lol

 

Zandvoort is great. Would never know it wasn't a non-laser scanned version.

GT86 is gonna get some use. My type of car.

The Miura, man, you've gotta break about one year ahead of where you would in another car. The thing doesn't stop worth a damn! lol

GTR Nismo is fun once you've got it pointed the right way.

Mito is slow, but alright. Was hoping it'd be a bit more competitive with the 500EssEss, but it's a bit too slow for it.

Cars are definitely more slippy on the rear. I'm adjusting, but it makes driving fast more difficult, makes braking in anything but a straight line a nightmare, and it's making me a lot more error prone. I cant say whether it's more or less realistic than before, but it's gonna take some time to get used to fully, where I can feel comfortable running full races without getting overly frustrated with my mistakes.

FFB feels good. Feels a bit different, not sure what it is, but I have no issues with it. Heard some others with G27's saying they had a deadzone around 0 degrees, but I don't have that issue. I've had my Logitech profiler set at 107% strength the entire time, though.

 

hahaha, explain this one please

 

You didn't the try the best of the bunch yet (the Audi)?

 

Hahaha great comparison in a positive funny way^^

 

Yea, I forgot to mention it. It's pretty good. Both it and the S1 version.

Not typically my type of car, though. More of a RWD guy.

 

Nice one, Michael. My best lap so far is a 1:00.872 with a 50% fuel load and default setup.

 

Do not get the Miura sideways; it is NOT a drift car, at least not in my hands at all.
The GTR is insanity; somehow it can understeer and oversteer at the same time. Lift off oversteer is crazy and the grip (and thus acceleration) from center off is wicked. Not an easy car to drift in my less than capable hands, but possible and very rewarding when you complete a nice one.

There you go Christopher, shaving seconds off like a boss! Lowering the air pressures 4 psi all the way around was my only setup change.

 

Wow, the MP4-C GT3 is now really a beast compared to all other GT3's , even on soft slicks and optimum track.
Is that due to tire model change or maybe something changed in the default setup?

 

After tweaking the ffb (put everything at 0% except Gain at 100%), I can drive better now. It actually felt close to what I have in pCars.

Still somewhat floaty feel sometimes though.

Did a race against AI in the Abarth 500 S1 at Silverstone International. They seemed better while in first lap, side by side with me, but didn't fight too much between themselves after that lap.
Then, GT3 race at Spa. AI fought me, and fought between themselves. Awsome to see the improvements. Pushed them a bit to try and provoke reactions to see how they behaved, and they looked nice. Still some things to improve, like the robot like braking (flashing brake lights), but overall a great improvement. Now I feel I'm racing. They're racing me. Thats awsome.

 

I really like 1.2, especially the more detailed ffb. Can now feel the smallest slides & grip recovery seems far more natural - feels awesome!

Kerb of death is much better but not yet gone, kicks in at Mugello at various turns.

I don't have ghost cars any more in hotlap. Have tried unchecking and rechecking the box in summary but no joy?

 

any minimum force changes needed?

 

Also there is a line in assetto_corsa.ini (assottocorsa/system/cfg) called 'MIN_VALUE=0.2 ; The FF multiplier for 0kmh.' under [LOW_SPEED_FF] which changes the strenght of the effect when car is standing still.
I use 5% damper from driver atm. and fore mentioned MIN_VALUE=2.0 to get the effect without cranking up the damper. (too much damper eats alot of detail from FFB and creates wheel weight so you miss the suttle differences in weight transfer)

 

I agree 110% to this.
- I'd like to finish the race even if I'm 1.5 laps behind the lead.
- The game really forgets the replay if the session ends and new starts. That needs some sort of a fix at some point.
- I also would like to have an option for the game to automatically save the replays without me taking care of it. I can delete the ones I don't need later.

Otherwise I think this update was an improvement FFB feels a bit better. Can't wait to get on track with some of the new cars.. :3

 

I put it at 0%

But will have to test further

 

Dont change values if you don't fully understand what they do.
MIN_VALUE is supposed to multiply tyres forces when the car is not moving, it is designed to avoid nasty vibrations.. if you put 2.0 you are actually making the vibrations worse.
That value at 1 will give you 1.1.6 vibrations at <3kmh, you want to put that down to kill vibrations and leave the damper to do the damping if necessary.

 

If damper is separate from other ffb effects how will it eat a lot of details?

 

- Removed user FF damper settings from GUI and setups. FF damping is only used for stationary cars (hard steering wheel feel) and it is controlled by wheel drivers

 

I find this video about ai really fun to watch
