It was reported that FFB have gotten weak. I didnt notice since I could compensate in my wheelbase. Now fixed, changed torque from 20nm back to 8nm, and had to revert center of gravity back to 0.225.
Changes in version 0.84
Gearing
- Fixed minor ratio adjustments to fit historical data.
- Removed lowest final drive 6/29, since it is too fast and I couldnt find any historical documentation for this.
- Kept final drive 9/35 optional use for larger tracks, though also have no documentation for this.
Engine
- Small engine temperature fixes, to make it more vulnable to overheating.
- Will start to overheat at 110c and it will not last long when it's overheating.
- Big misshifts in gearing will now break engine.
- Added more radiator settings to better control overheating, optimal would be 3-5 depending on duration and weather etc.
- Added more radiator draft, which makes the car slower but will also give you more slipstream speed when you try to overtake.
General physics
- Raised center of gravity from 0.225 to 0.285.
Liveries
- Added 15 "Nationale coupe" liveries. I might group them better in the future, but for now they are all in one list.
- Added "Nationale coupe" driver names to those I could match up, and else random on liveries.
Tires
- wear temperature have been lowered but I'm still testing these. Would like to give it even quicker wearrate.
Bugs
- AI are still slow at starts.
v.0.82
- added multiple small details to exterior, like hood springs and side position indicators etc.
- Moved to subcategory of renault.
- made a more detail AI class name.
- small sound fixes.
- Added real historic livery names to those I could locate.
- wiper adjustment
- chrome details in dash.
- more fiddling with physics.
Updated, suspension to be less train like, and more back to its old classic feeling. It has that loose old steering feel, and a good amount of softness, yet it's easy to recover, and you can throw it into the corners. But unfortunately it has a little loose damper noise I can't find a fix for. Looking forward to hear if the FFB noise is acceptable.
- New suspension setup borrowed from a GTR2 R8 Gordini by Speedster63. It has been modified and adjusted by Chris "redapg" to fit rFactor2 and this car. I have then changed some parameters specific to fit this car's specs. Like removing front and rear wing. adding double fueltank and reduced brakedisc thickness. - It feels great, looking forward to get all your feedback.
The old suspension file is converted with redapg's fastastic tools.
Hopefully this have removed the unwanted instantly stopping faults. But I cant make up my mind if it also a lost some of it characteristics?
I finally found a way to tune the AI, and now they are quite faster, though still a bit slow starter.
Also alot of small improvements which I cant remember or list up here. At the moment I'm working a bit on the interior dash.
It was reported problems with installing this.
Repacked and confirmed it installs now.
Also added a updated a redefined "default car setup".
AI are still very slow, bump up AI to 105-110%
