Thanks for this feedback with gamepad @

> okay after testing with the 30% more grip file i must say the AI is one hell of .... fast ^^
Yes, that's why I like it now also depending on the other AI mods I use, other cars are more aggressive too.
> i play on Professional and without helps only line's in corner active with gamepad ^^ for me it's barely driveable but i dont know how many i can risk now on the track cuz i feel like my car have tons of downforce more now ^^
Although I also got myself an xbox gamepad for PC recently, I have found can't get used to driving with it (yet). I have mind-2-fingers coordination problems. It's a bit too hard for me to control so I still use my gaming-laptop keyboard (I can't afford a wheel, and have no physical space for one).
Edited to add: Regarding downforce, I can say that, b4 that mod, I always ended up sliding on grass after barely touching the curbs at Turn 01 in Montreal, only to spin out of control and always ending in the pitlane wall
![Mad :mad: :mad:](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
there, no matter the car settings, when all the other cars had zero problems raming those curbs. Maybe it was because I use keyboard but man it gets so frustrating. Now that constant annoyance is gone. Yes the car is a little unstable
but I can always recover now (that's where the FUN is IMO).
> funny thing the small teams ^^ last race i made was in Spain and an HRT?! wtf ^^ got on 2nd place
well maybe i must look into database and modify something ^
^
I modify the
track_difficulties table numbers for professional (hard column) by diminishing the values gradually, until the pace & laptimes emulate reality more than ever b4 now. I also installed so many AI mods I can't remember them all, but search for the excellent
True to Life AI in the search box (top-right corner). Backup your original files first! Edit: Here's another awesome one:
http://www.racedepartment.com/forum/resources/f1-2012-realism-enhancer.148/
(realism enhancer includes AI tweaks) but always keep in mind that you can install a new database file, and play with the hard numbers after (may have to restart career, quit to main menu after ydt intro or save your career folders for later restore).
>Thank you!
Edited once more 'cuz so many different tweaking details: for in relation to my Canada Qualy & 100% Race on page 1, when I finish Q3, b4 doing the race, I have to exit the game, and go back to raise the db numbers 'cuz the overall pace in the 100% race is too slow (all cars have full fuel tanks for 71 laps, but after lowering numbers difficulty for Qualy, I have to raise them back up for 100% race). See how that works 2 each their own.
