Tire Wear--CART Extreme Mod

MANashTTU · Aug 8, 2017

Hello all.
I have been enjoying the CART Extreme mod very much. I have noticed that on longer races, such as at Road America, the AI does not seem to suffer nearly as much tire wear as I do. They actually get faster as the run goes on, while I am losing grip.

I also found that there is no TireManagement entry in the Talent file for each CART driver. I added those and experimented, but no matter the entry, it seems to have no effect.

There is indeed some tire wear modeled; if I turn tire wear off entirely, they do get even faster (as do I).

Does anyone know a method to tweak the tire wear values for the mod to relate more closely to how the player tires wear?

Thank you.
Alan

tldr; tire wear is a known issue with the AI cars in this game. Best bet is turning it off.

Ahh . . . Thank you for the guidance, BoogerMac. I guess it may be best to run like F1 and shoot for hot out laps leading up to a pit stop. Muscling a car on greasy tires at the end of a fuel run is part of the intensity of a long race.

For the Official Classes i dont have any problem with Tyre Wear, seems great realistic.

Its not the Game's fault that on a Mod it don't work perfectly.
Maybe the modder of the Mod should give it a look to improve it

Tire wear on the AI Reiza cars included in the game works as expected.
