Croft Circuit, UK - v1.0 (last update:2013.04.10)

Luckily, I don't have any "tree" issues like some do, and the only issue I have with any of Feels3 tracks are the AI...They are just waaaay too fast for me here at Croft :o, and they slow down in the last corner at Putnam Park making races a bit weird there.

Otherwise, the man has a pretty much perfect track record IMO ;).
 
Yeah I never really understood why the ai is so abnormally quick around Croft. Has anyone looked into this? Some kind of odd grip hack, or what?
 
I once pointed that out in another thread.
There are track-dependend AI-values in the AIW-file. They are called
WorstAdjust=(0.8000)
MidAdjust=(1.0000)
BestAdjust=(1.2000)

For global (UI) AI strength <90% "worst adjust" comes into play
for 90-100% "Mid adjust" works and for values >100% "Best adjust" is assigned.
Modder of Croft (feels3, or was it an update from someone else?) set Midadjust to 1.1000 what is idiotic,
as it is waaaaayy too much!
If your AIW isn´t perfect and you need a few tenth´s or half a second or so, begin with trying to raise "Midadjust" to 1.01
If your AIW needs much more than + 0.01 then better redo the line.
However that is a good method to speed up AI when driving line seems good, but they are nonetheless too slow.
This is NOT a replacement for a bad AIW-line!!!

So hexa you are not far away with your "grip-hack" assumption, as everything above 1.0 adds artificial grip to the AI.
 
Thanks for explaining that, peterchen. :)

Edit: Maybe these values can be decreased before the new component is uploaded? If it has not aleady been done.

Wow... I could fix that in 5 minutes. You must be a very busy man to not have 5 minutes in 2 years.... :)

It may relate to why these old tracks still look better/more natural than anything released subsequently for rF2? Or why feels3's work on R3E produces such stunning results? Or that there are quite a few small issues that should be addressed, not just the transparency/trees issue?

Anyway, hopefully they will receive the care and attention they need to bring them up to the latest standards and not just a quick transparency patch. After waiting three years for that, I for one can wait an extra few days or weeks to do a proper update.
 
Why Maya over Max?

I'm curious why a former Max user would step over to Maya? 3ds Max exports to UDK or unity too.

Don't get me wrong here, i use Maya for modding in rF2. :)
 
At some point I had to switch because of Raceroom, they were using Maya when I joined them.
It was painful moment but after 4 years I feel really fine with it :)

I can imagine. Workflow is similar and different at the sametime.

BTW: Let me know when there is a job opening. ;) You never know... :cool:

Maya - with the support of Z-brush, Substance Designer, Unreal Engine 4 and Photoshop - that's my current working package :)

Seems like RR is really heading for UE4 now. Or it's the new Simbin-stuff. Looking forward to see some news about it soon.:cool:
