Posted October 7, 2021 Author A daily ACC race is enough for my sanity, and away from the chaos of GT3 haha.

Posted October 17, 2021 Author Recently been diving back into AMS2 because theres never good mixed lobbies for ACC in my timeslot; slightly surprised how there are still slight AV bugs in the engine but still plenty of fun in how the cars handle. Still never really got into the funky brazillian tracks, but the mainstream circuits are still a joy to drive on even with a gamepad. Also the GT3 cup is (mostly) fixed and prob has the most seat time logged.

Also the GT3 cup is (mostly) fixed and prob has the most seat time logged. I haven't bought a new sim since PC2 and this is pretty much why. Though I did get Forza 7, which is close enough for me and give me more interesting races on the whole, even though the AI is a bunch of filthy cheaters. It's honestly not near as bad as people make it out to be. #Muricaparrotgang Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted November 21, 2021 Ok guys, can anyone please explain the logic behind the the shock and damper settings in Project Cars 2? I watched all the videos i could find that explain it and still can't quite get the hang of it, especially the bump and rebound transition. When i keep everything else the same and do very subtle changes to the bump and rebound transition (1 or 2 clicks left or right), the car goes mental and starts oversteer like mad. It's basically the same with every car. How are you supposed to set the suspension for neutral car or slight understeer. I'm already maxing out the anti-roll bars for the most understeery feel and yet in most cars except with the Porsche it's impossible to keep that back end from sliding like mad under breaking.The 2 tracks this is most pronounced are Monza and Red Bull Ring. Every other track i can get within 0.5 sec of the world record for the selected car, but on these two it's just impossible to drop in even under 2 seconds. The other odd thing about Red Bull - get almost a full second faster time with keyboard than with the wheel..?!?

While a baseline will work at most tracks, some require more special attention depending on scan fidelity and how upset the car gets. Ontop of spring rate and travel/ride height, bump and rebound affects how quickly the shock will deflect/absorb a load and how long it takes the car to settle. It will take time to get these values tailored to your driving style though, especially if you are opting for more mechanical grip or to sustain higher aero load. If a surface is very bumpy you may want to soften the shocks so you dont get sent to the moon over the smallest rock, or if its smooth you may stiffen them up to maintain a uniform ride height at speed. Without touching the shocks, you can address turn in response via ARBs and alignment. Edit: to induce understeer you want less (or no) ARB so the car will lean into that corner and momentum will result in push.

Edit: to induce understeer you want less (or no) ARB so the car will lean into that corner and momentum will result in push. Yup, that point i got, for smoother tracks like Monza i go almost all the way to the max values making the dampers and shocks as stiff as possible and for Red Bull - as soft as possible, with higher ride height, because of all the bump and kerb rides. I'm also well aware of the bump stop values, but what i can't understand and the logic behind it is the bump and rebound transition. What's the effect of increasing and decreasing it? Because whichever i change it, the car starts to act like a deranged monkey. As for the ARB, at Monza for example my front ARB is the stiffest possible and the rear is as soft as possible which in theory should bring understeer and yet at almost every breaking, the end starts sliding even with 80/20 front/rear break bias. | Ryzen 7 5800X3D | Arctic Liquid Freezer II 360 Rev 7| AsRock X570 Steel Legend | | 4x16GB G.Skill Trident Z Neo 4000MHz CL16 | Sapphire Nitro+ RX 6900 XT | Seasonic Focus GX-1000| | 512GB A-Data XPG Spectrix S40G RGB | 2TB A-Data SX8200 Pro| Phanteks Eclipse G500A | Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted December 5, 2021 Author Oh noooo i'm gonna have to buy this dlc sooooon Not even mad that its still kinda buggy, and some project cars quirks are still in the engine, but that was truly some fun racing even if its against bots. TLDR: tracks are as much familiar as they are in PC2 but updated cars are worth it; audio mixing needs a looking at and theres still some pitstop strategy bugs. Even at 100% AI, they dont know how to handle big ovals lmao. Breezed through the pack but bunged up my fuel strat by 10L and needed a splash at the end. Also absolutely no tire temp (about half optimal at late jan weather) through the night making for some tricky braking. On a traditional road course the AI seem much better behaved, top half of the class achieved alien pace but had a blast tustling with the bottom split and working through traffic. Somehow magically the BOP has the stratification close to what makes sense, when the AI aren't racing in dumb packs. Tried one-stopping tires and fueling to the end (properly) since theres not much deg in an hour sprint, but I still just missed out on the podium fight by a lap. Filtering through the GT classes wasn't as hectic as I was expecting and track evolution didnt seem to factor. Kind of embarassing how long it took to record this session since I just lost the car at weird times, or the AI decided to seppuku, but by the end I was into a groove and it felt great. RE: pit strategy bug, one recording had AI takeover control despite setting no driver change, and by the time I fixed it I was two laps down and not having fun anymore. Gonna try my hand in VR tomorrow and see if its improved any Folding@Home | BOINC CPU: AMD Ryzen 9 3900X + Celsius S36 GPU: ASUS TUF RTX3080 MB: ASRock x470 Taichi RAM: Corsair Vengeance RGB DDR4-2666 32GB CASE: Fractal Design Define 7 Panda STORAGE: WD Black SN770 2TB + WD Red Pro 6TB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted December 6, 2021 Author Pros: AMS2 VR runs more smooth than PC2 did, somehow Cons: I still suck driving in VR Maybe its the default setups, but I had a rough time getting to the end of these sessions without spinning LOL no idea why it defaults to softs when they feel like they drop off so quickly and are insta dead when you get them dirty, but also the default setup overheats the rears and I cba to change it. Could never match the ai here and the bop seemed to favour the 911 down the straight. Got fed up near the end and stopped for fresh tires which felt as good as the set at the start, so maybe it was just bad temps. Vette is very rear sensitive and hard to catch once it comes around. Long beach went by slightly better just because I used to main it, and was good fun in a three class split. Non alien AI seemed completely SOL here and didnt put up a fight, somehow ended up spinning on my own every time but still managed to finish P3. The final hairpin is the death of me. DPi filter in at 10m and GTEs catch the tail end of GTD at 30m. Felt much better on aired down mediums but the car doesnt like heavy trail braking or bouncing over big curbs lol. Fun weekend, deffo polished up PC2 tracks but they felt good; cant wait for road america.
