    We´re aware of the session edit CTD folks, apologies for that - it will be hotfixed ASAP.

    Just a quick question:
    Are there more LMDh cars to be expected?

    That's right. In real life there are new cars coming soon :);)

    Holy cow...the Group C monsters are showing their legs. 360km/h and you've to bring this down to catch le premier Ralentisseur. It's crazy awesome.

    • Adjusted effects of drafting for both player and AI ( generally draft is more powerful than before)
    Hope this part means the AI has a lot more drafting, dont feel like the players needed increasing, it was massively stronger than the AIs already.

    I just want to be clear in saying we don't KNOW of any further LMDh or LMH cars coming to AMS. But we have some assumptions and speculation to what cars could come in the future.

    (I'm still waiting on the 2nd DPI)

    Has to be a problem with the simplified physics, I cant think of another reason why they would want the player to have an unfair advantage in a sim racer.

    It feels like with the latest update, it’s impossible to draft. Try the Porsche cup on Le Mans and try to tuck up to a car, I can’t find any draft advantage anymore. Meanwhile the AI is drafting me and passing with ease, Am I doing something wrong?

    What Porsche car class is that exactly ? What time of day, weather, track conditions, difficulty.

    Problem here is that conclusion keeps being reached when there are a number of other reasons why player could pull away from an AI car in a straightline - the AI rolling resistance is higher (most typical cause for straightline discrepancies); the AI is feathering the throttle or tapping the brakes as it feels it has nowhere to go as it approaches the car ahead (be that the case or not); the car-engine combos aren´t identical (they aren´t in the video above); the conbination of cars ahead is actually giving more draft to the car pulling away.

    In fact the AI has (and always has had) slightly stronger draft than the player, not the other way round. The overall draft effect for both has been increased as it was generally a bit on the light side in terms of speed gain, the scaling gap between player and AI has been marginally reduced but AI still overall gets more draft than player. There most likely shouldn´t be any difference in draft effects for player and AI as they share largely the same aero physics, but that change can´t be made on a whim as it has other repercussions.

    Naturally if there´s a miscalibration in tire rolling resistance between player and AI (and most likely there are some marginal ones still - please report if you spot them) or if the AI is hesitating to pull a pass they can make (and they will even if that issue is getting smaller every update) those are still issues to be addressed - just looking to set the record straight as the immediate conclusion always seem to be about draft effects being too low for the AI, and it´s not :)

    Porsche cup 4.0
    Le Mans, 12:00, partial sunny, dry.

    I read Renato’s post about there being no difference in draft effect for player and AI, but I see no draft effect at all for the player. Before the patch there was draft, and now there isn’t.

    I even did a 1 v 1 race with the Porsche cup 4.0 at Le Mans to rule out the possibility of group draft advantage from the cars in front. I didn’t notice any draft behind the AI who who should’ve been dealing with more drag than me.

    Because version 1.5.5.5.2531 uses my RTX3070 GPU at 100% at 60fps when before this update the consumption remained at 55% at 60fps.? I haven't changed anything in the configuration!

    Thank you for the quick fix. I've posted this info on Steam as well.

    I have always had this "problem" in the beta version, but since the last update the normal version has drastically increased GPU consumption

    Whatever was done to the Group A tires is not good and was not minor. Grip is reduced a lot. Why the need to change?

    Conversely, the 1974 911 RSR now drives like it is on rails….
