AMSU V8 AWD - Fictional AWD Versions of the 2015 Chevy Sonic Stock Car and the Chevy Montana

Overview: The AMSU V8 AWD series is very much a fantasy series; the goal was to take the beloved 2015 Chevy Sonic Stock Car and the Chevy Montana (from the Copa Montana) series and, among other things, bring them into the world of all-wheel drive. This series was made for, and is dedicated to, the good folks at AMS Unofficial (amsunofficial.net). The installation will create a separate series in your AMS folders; no vanilla files should be overwritten.

Key Features:...

sertimeile4178 updated AMSU V8 AWD with a new update entry:

AMSU V8 AWD (v 1.01)

With a million apologies for such a quick update:

You can safely overwrite version 1.00.

For version 1.01, two small updates:

(a) The correct .srs file is included (Last time, I somehow put the .srs file from v0.05 instead of v1.00).
(b) All skins recomplied with proper AO layer.

Enjoy!

A quick question if i may.

I run these cars, the stock v8 AWD at Le Mans in multiclass offline, i have the fuel calculation at x2 for all cars, but all the AWD cars run out of fuel just before first pit stop.

Would this be a track file setting, or maybe a car file setting cause that i can edit?

Any tips on changing the A.I fuel calculation would be great.

Thanks alot.

Hi Rix:

I haven't tried the following, so I can't promise it will work; and you'd be stuck adding each driver from the Stock V8 AWD manually (using their actual driver name, not the generic "driver1", etc., as indicated in the post), but maybe this works? It sounds like you'd need to do this in the track's .gdb file.

AI Pit Stop Strategies

I saw this in a forum for rFactor, but thought it was worth posting as it works in GSC (and probably in FTruck as well): You can tell each of your AI drivers how many times to pit and what laps to pit on. In the GDB file, add the following lines: PitStopStrategies { Driver1 = 2 - 20,30...

If you try this and it works, let me know. I'm not sure if I'll have time today to give it a try, but I might hav some time in a day or two and can follow up here.

Cheers!

Hi Rix:

An AMS modder gave me the following answer:

"open up the upgrades.ini file and paste the following lines in the HDV=[GENERAL] section:

HDV=FuelRange=(1,1,a)
HDV=FuelSetting=b
HDV=Pitstop1Range=(1,1,a)
HDV=Pitstop1Setting=b

where a is tank capacity (in liters) and b is how many liters should be added to the tank

For more than one pit stop, add more lines but index appropriately:
HDV=Pitstop2Range=(1,1,c)
HDV=Pitstop2Setting=d

etc."

I don't know if that will actually make them stop before they run out, though, so you'll have to do some testing. This might work in conjunction with the other post as well. Good luck!

Blimey thats amazing. Thanks alot for your time. I'm sure i can cross reference that to other upgrade.ini's of cars that do pit aswell, to find a possible solution.
