PHYSICS Brake ducts and Tyre damage

Will these physics updates be present in the console version?

 

Hopefully? I don't see why not unless the console version is that far behind the PC version - no real point in two massively different code bases to maintain. AC1 didn't set a great example but... ACC should be easier to port...

 

These posts should be compiled and introduced into the game, not only as a user manual, but also as descriptions in the setup menu.

 

This seems strange? If you do a 24h race in real time you'll end up with very different pad wear to if you do the same 24h race but with 4x accelerated time...
But good to know, I just assumed everything gets accelerated (I only got the game a few weeks ago so not done any endurance races yet)

 

Tyre wear and brake pads are not accelerated, it's the normal wear that would accrue during the 6 hours (taking your 4x multiplier for 24 hours as an example).

We did a lot of 24h races with a 6x accelerator and you could use two to three sets of tires during these 3 hour races according to your driving style. Most people did one stop for tires and fuel and one for brakes, tires and fuel as a 3 minute stop was mandatory from the rules of the league.

 

anybody cached something on brake pads in GT4? Do they have same endurance 1-4 as GT3 cars?

 

They are the same said Aris in on of his stream, but(!) the GT4 are heavier and will use more brake pad than the GT3.
So if a GT3 can use brake pad 1 for about 1hr a GT4 may use it only around 45m (or less) before it ruptures and the brakes are gone.

 

Ohhh good point, cheers!

 

why is this info baout pads not in game? after 2 years is a bit of text really that hard? also engine maps, no idea what any of them are as they have literally zero info in game

 

“1” does not last three hours ...

 

I am assuming this is the right thread .
Does anyone know which is the maximum G force Pirelli tires can handle??? This is so important.

 

Dunno if the recent changes are good. The Screenshot above from C3PO was on monza and for me its a heavy brake wear track so the brakes should hold 1:30 - 2:00 hour.
Maybe the 2 brakes could be hold a bit longer, because at the AOR 9hrs kylami this year and it was really hot 33°C air and above. After around 7.5 hour we needed to change them.
On an 12hrs Nurburgring Event they died after ~10 hours.

 

Yesterday's patch addressed exactly this.

 

Regarding this brakes wear indicator, at what level of wear does it light up?? I mean, when this red square indicator appears, does it mean the brakes are completely dead or can we still run a bit longer on it?

 

If you have the square appearing they're dead.

 

This is when they're dead - and it's reached limit by then (< 10mm):

 

Question, if you have physical damage on 50%, is the tyre damage (graining & blistering) 50% reduced and is the tyre wear also 50% reduced? Or they are separate and always 100% wear rates?

 

Hey Guys!
I have a very technical question about the physics of ACC.
I remember that some time ago, trying to learn every info available on the internet, I read that the McLaren 650s GT3 has 35mm wide front disks and 32mm wide rear disks.
In the sim, in the setup menu, we have 32mm for both front and rear.
At the time, I didn't even attempt to think this is wrong or a bug, I assumed racing cars use 32mm for both axis.
But now I was watching a video of David Perel and he said in ACC you have the feeling that the car is not stopping. That's his opinion.
So now I have the doubt.
Can anyone explain why we have 32mm front and rear?

Thank you for any clarification.

 

I think every car has differents disks, I'm not sure there is any regulations about it in GTWC, i might be wrong, but the only restriction should be bop regarding that, so if a car is better than another under braking (bigger disks) they should get balanced elsewhere (weight, top speed restriction etc)

Is the brake temperature data accurate? It should be the temperatures of use after the 1.8 release
