[WIP] AE86 Club v1.4.912

The OP does state that this is a WIP version, so I think perhaps we should just be thankful for what we have here. Would be great if @I_Bellett was able to put an update out at some point in the future, but for now, I'll keep my fingers crossed and keep checking this thread. :)
Thanks again for the template and good luck with the mod, I think it's great. :)
 
If the modder was kind enough to give me a working devmode folder of this mod, i can happily capture all car screenshots/thumbnails - with the coresponding names in order for them to work with the new ui) and upload a zip file here for the next update!

Here are the 27 (of the 41) Levins car screenshot images (total of 27 x 6 = 162 *.png's with correct names) in order to work with the new ui. I could NOT CORRELATE the 14 remaining car images (which are included inside the zip with a separate folder named "EXTRA CAR IMAGES WITH NO NAME").

Link is here:

I think @I_Bellett could do the remaining job as he knows his project better than me. I really hope for an update soon (with the corresponding names + maybe working wipers:cool::p)

Cheers!

Recent situation.

The Update date is still undecided, but I will explain the situation.
With reference to the structure of the F1_70 tire, we are currently testing and making our own tire model.
I haven't done the QSA batch test yet, but it's a character close to the tires of the early days (ISI era).

Physics is also overhauling, and the "lightness of FFB" that has been a concern in the past has been improved.
Wiper animation is complicated, so I don't think it will be implemented at the time of update.
The collision model problem is also looking for a solution, but it is unlikely that a landing point will be found.

Yes.
We are planning to update the collision model and physics.

We are using this mod this week but i am finding some strange things with the FFB, We have guys on g27's and some fanatec 2.5's etc saying how great the FFB is and there is plenty of it and yet i have some guys including myself on DD wheels that have hardly any FFB at normal levels? I run a DD1 and i am currently having to run it at about 90% to get the FFB strength i get on most mods at 30-40%. I don't get how a weak belt driven wheel can get more FFB that a DD1? Not sure if we have some strange driver issues going on or what

Sounds like the FFB being scaled per the maximum torque controller option and the car's nominal max. The only question is whether the generated forces are at a realistic level.

it's a strange issue, if i use 40% on my DD1 you may as well forget it there is hardly any FFB, so light:(

Is your wheel 20Nm? If a car is rated to, say, 8Nm, the game will scale that. So then your 0.40 will make the max force 3.2Nm. While a heavier car with fast steering will scale to most of your 20Nm, and end up a 8Nm.

Weaker wheels just get 0-100% whether the car does 8 or 28Nm.

* @sniper if you don't want this scaling effect, or to reduce it, just lower your torque capability in your controller profile (or controller.json). That way you can keep your multiplier and not adjust for these lighter cars.

MaxSteeringTorque is set to about 7Nm, and I think most steering wheels have a satisfactory FFB output.
You may have already tried it, but try setting the output on the main unit to 100%, FFB Smoothing to 0, and Car specific ffb multi to 100%.

Dropped this to 10nm and it is better, thanks
