Assetto Corsa Competizione - Generic discussion

I think what some people here can learn from Mr Thiim is not to take life too seriously.

David Perel seems to be the most "gentlemanly" race driver I have heard talking, very soft spoken.

But they do agree on the curbs in their very different way. Let's see for 1.0.7, I expect not to have to use the tarmac at all anymore and just fully race on the curbs instead .

 

A Very bad day ...
Srry again.

 

I hope Perel will get VR

 

No good matey... Chin up pal

 

yeah... Danny Ric shows how not to take life too seriously whilst not being a tosser at the same time

 

Everyone have his purpose.
I don't repeat my self but, the good of life is to have the freedom to choose.

 

smashing those kerbs nicely You really can hear that in the audio. Maybe the kerb sounds need beefing up in ACC.

 

I know everyone was picking on @bgil66 a bit for his pit limiter rant, but the above is a fair point. It's also another demonstration of how little information on the game there is for newbies. I'm pretty sure most people who bought ACC had to find out the hard way that the pit limiter only works in 1st gear. Casual users aren't going to read this forum before playing the game.

This is why I don't value much about Perel's opinion of ACC so far. He keeps using this reason as a major factor of why he thinks ACC is better than iRacing, which frankly, is irrelevant for us sim racers. I don't particularly care if the tracks are slightly more modern than on iRacing.

I do really enjoy Perel's stuff, but it's this little comment he keeps saying which irritates me a bit. Why would we massively care if the kerbs are slightly more correct in ACC around Spa, than they are in iRacing, PC2 etc etc?

Yes, we want a sim to be as close to reality as possible, but the slight deviation of where a kerb lies or the colour of it, is just silly to keep stating as a massive positive over other sims.

Anyway, I digress.

As you were.

 

Does Mr Perel have dialog with LK and Aris?

 

Nah it was Znam’s rant I only had a comment

 

I think he mentioned somewhere, that he knows the devs.

 

Nice. He seems very level headed with a good degree of knowledge and experience. I hope kunos are picking a few brains along the way of development cycle.

 

Aris mentioned previously that David Perel helped with input / feedback during the physics development.

Edit: Found the post:

haha i actually previously liked Aris's post. My peahead brain

 

It wasn't Bgill66, but be that as it may, there is no justification for the poster starting his post by insulting the Devs and their work with the phrase "a pile of ....". He could've just stated his problem and asked for help like tons of other do on a daily basis. This was just more of the "outrage culture", as someone so adequately put it recently. Didnt even have the decency to apologize for the outburst.

This I don't get. Everyone goes on about laser scanned tracks. Iracing supposedly pioneered laser scanned tracks - why do we find a pro driver complaining about track accuracy?
My take - not all laser scanned tracks are created equally, another reason to give kudos to Kunos.

 

This, from a learning psychology standpoint, is absolutely bonkers, because of a full blown overload!

If you want to get better quickly at any discipline, you need to restrict yourself...

The most useful training plans, with the why’s and no’s are out there.

This is not one of them...

 

Granted this may not work for the average person, but DP learnt most of the tracks he races on from GT/ GT Sport, and he is fairly successful. So its working for him - which is all he is alluding to.

For someone who's had to quit racing for financial reasons, continued to hone his skill on a SIM, started a SW company and save up to get back into racing, and then cold called racing teams until he found a seat, he deserves some credit.

He wasn't born into motorsport like some others.

 

Yea and that`s why he is Racing driver now ?? and we are still behind our PC`s and "simulating" what he does.

 

Nope,
He’s a gifted person, who could have reached his goals even faster, sticking to the book.

 

I think if you laser scan a track in 2000 its going to be different from one scanned in 2018
