I dunno why but this mod (and only this) conflicts with s397 metalmoro (paid version of the m18). I can see the mr1 but when i hit the mr18 nothing happens (the car does not appear). I guess it is because the use the same folder name? I dunno..

ps i was about to capture the car icons for the new ui but @Slow Motion did it first!

We see to have confirmed it is a new WEB UI problem that doesn't read in the right way names of the list. In this case we have our MR1 mod listed under manufacturer name "Metalmoro" (that is the right name) and reiza that used "MetalMoro" just to avoid to have their mods listed together the MR1, but the new UI fails. I hope it will be fixed by S397 asap.

Just checked this. Yeap i can confirm that there is a problem in new ui between the mr18 and mr1. We hope for a fix (i guess s397 knows the problem?)
 
The temporary (and I fear for long time) fix is here: https://forum.studio-397.com/index....type-new-build-1-42.57913/page-5#post-1054930

I informed S397 and added to the bug list. It depends of the capital letter used by Reiza and that is not correctly recognized by the code of the new UI. Of course I do not change the name of the manufacturer, so please follow the fix written in the above post also because it is a problem that seems affecting also other mods (tracks).

The new build 1.44 is ready:
- updated to new IBL/PBR 4096X4096 all cars
- replaced old UI icons and added new web UI icons
- updated HDV files for improving AI behaviour and some fix to the clutch
- new public body template (PBR)

Enjoy it!
 
Thanks for the new update!

Just a quick question: i always have a pile crash in front of me in the first (left handed) turn in Sebring with this car (i usually race with 23 ai’s and i always start last)

How can i fix that? Is this a aiw error?

It happens (most of the times). And in last build yes.

An other issue is that - sometimes not always - the 1st car (out of 24 that i usually race) disappears and re-appears 100-200 meters in front (at least in the same track - Sebring, havent tested other tracks). I guess smth with the lod parameter (maybe it needs a lodout param larger in car's gen file?). Check that too..

Okay, thanks for info!

Well, for the second issue I think it depends of your settings and how and how much the mod uses resources... please look at the number of the "visible vehicle" and setting of "auto detail fps" in display/graphics options. The lods are like any other mod and I read you use a lot of AIs.

About the AI behaviour, uhm here is much more complex and is not track related, st least for the most of the times. It is something really specific of this car. Let me explain better: at first, you know real cars similar to the MR1, but the MR1 has only the look of the "500"... we can say more or less the size, but is RWD, turbo engine in central position, semi-tubular frame, long lasting tire and a specific behaviour in driving.
I know you are feeling all this specific characteristics of the mod, that are really unique and very closed to the real car. I have to say that also the owner of the car time ago asked me for the cad drawing to test a new rear wing for a simulation into the wind tunnel. The car is great to be driven, great "sliding" feeling, but just a very thin barrier between keeping it under control or not!

The difficult thing is to keep this behaviour for the human and at the same time to improve the AI behaviour!

I spent several hours on this specific need and I improved a little the AI, but sometime can still happen that a car creates an accident, more probable than for other mods.

I hope to upload a new build soon.

My settings: "visible vehicles" = 25 and "auto detail fps" = 0

bah, no idea then and no idea if it depends of track, I do not make tracks since years, LOL
Anyway nothing to do with the mod LODS... latest are 500, both for scratched and detached options
 
That 's quick thanks! Cant wait to test it.

PS I also had some crashes in Spa Circuit (in turns "Les Combes", after the long straight), dunno if this is fixed or not - with new version

Will test and report back!
 
That’s better yes. Better ai lines in Sebring and in Spa , i can tell! (No crashes atm)

Had two small issues though:

1) Had to completely unsubscribe from the workshop item and re-subscribe, as the update didnt work for me (no “syncing to workshop” process at the start of rf2 with new ui)

2) Ai is always faster than me - on the straight. It s impossible to follow them. They need to be a little slower imho

1. no idea of the reason, not depending of the mod
2. sincerely no idea also here, because I tune AI vs. humans at Joesville to look at max speed also when limiter works and then into another track, usually Silverstone.
I watched just now at joesville and max speed AI is 233 vs. human 234

That happened on Spa circuit. It was impossible to catch the front drivers. Dunno if this is track dependant (it may be).

I will have to check other tracks too
