Misc F1 2012 Realism Enhancer 1.3

[Petarkco]

Look for Track_difficulties tab and there will be track id and difficulty names as Easy, Medium, Hard and Expert. Medium is for Semi Pro and Hard is for Professional. Change the value for the track you wanted

The AI lap time in practice at Malaysia is around a 1:39 and I'm only able to do a 1:42 in a Toro Rosso (times are on prime tyres). Would 0.85 be a good value? Or should I do some trial and error.

Also I'm around 0.6 seconds off the pace in Sector one and loose time in sector two (AI is around 0:58.000 and do around a 1:01:000).

The Value effects over all lap time. So you need to find Trail and Error method to get it to your liking. But a STR was always like in Between P8 to P15. It couldn't be on Pole winning races.

I qualified 18th in Melbourne. Riccardo qualified 16th.

I guess I'll have to use trial and error, unless there is a version of this mod without some of the AI changes (which ones affected the AI performance?).

You have to get the values of Stock DB for that

Which ones have been changed?

 

[Kartik Sri Harsha]

Which ones have been changed?

I don't know which ones are changed. I generally Test in Legend mode. Ask Kristian about the changes he made.

 

[Kristian Nenov]

Which ones have been changed?

For difficulties - on V1.3 I went back to original ones. Which means - nothing is changed. Just lower all difficulties by some amount like 0.10 and see if it works.

Hi Kristian I am interested in trying your mod.
Using vanilla settings I generally I find Intermediate difficulty too easy but anything above that too hard. If I used the "Hard A.I." on intermediate difficulty would that make it more challenging for me? Or would Professional difficulty using "Easy AI"? be better? Thanks in advance.

To be honest, I can't compare them. You just have to try out and see what suits you best.

changing the difficulty setting in database only affects the simulated times, not the times driven on track. I checked that.
It's quite dumb from codemasters.

WTF!!! That's really stupid...

Where? track_model ? track_difficulties? elsewhere?

Tx!

WTH then it was almost like the game was locked to certain level. CM was showing how stupid they are

Hi kristian, one of my friend asked me how he can delete the DRS for AI and us. Do you know how please?

That's been discussed in "True to Life AI" thread. I haven't tried, so you'll just have to ask the people there.

So basically, any track_difficulties adjustments are only noticeable when the cars are out of sight and in simulation mode?

In the ai_vehicle_track.xml files, I'm looking to alter the "distance_modifier" and "curve_modifier" values, but I'm not sure which way to go with them.

The distance_modifier value is for braking, correct? And the curve_modifier is for how much speed they carry through the corners?
So if I decrease the distance_modifier, will that decrease the braking distance?
If I increase the curve_modifier, will that increase the amount of speed the AI carries through the corner?

Or do I have some/all of that backwards?

Thanks mate

That's the way it is. Decreasing distance_modifier decreases distance (later braking). And higher curve_modifier results in higher speed carried into the corner.

Kristian, you should do an update with the correction of the first corner in Shangai the ai brake correctly but is really really slow into it.

If I make it faster, they run wide. That's unfixable. I remember with original AI, I was overtaking them from 1 second back in a Marussia vs Hamilton or Vettel... It's terrible.
