I was gifted the first race, first by Guybrush getting bored out in front and slowing, then Marty and Gratulin coming together in front of me. I did gain some laptime by following Guybrush's advice ”Less is more”, trying to let the front wheels be straighter before putting the power down.

I kept losing the rear of the BMW downshifting, particularly turn 2. I was mistiming my shift into 2nd , probably too early.

I reckon the next step will be to parameterise these things :)

The various numbers are parameterised in plp.ini. The algorithm needed this tweak to avoid some false cuts.

Can you put up some screenshots?

Are you talking about the distorted FOV in the rear view mirror that makes cars behind look a lot further back than they really are?

DOWNLOAD ATTACHED BELOW
Unzip into your Steam\steamapps\common\assettocorsa folder, replacing any existing files



Version 2.00 (Feb 18 2021)
  • A cut track is now only issued if you've gained time compared to your average time taken for that section. If there are not enough lap times recorded yet for that section, falls back to the old style cut detection.
Version 1.28 (Feb 7, 2019)
  • Fixed not counting cuts after a non-timed race is over.
Version 1.26/27 (May 10, 2018)
  • Read number of cuts from server name if present.
Version 1.25 (Apr 25, 2018)
  • Made the off-track red/green indicator bigger (size controlled by setting in PLP.ini).
Version 1.21 (Mar 16, 2017):
  • New config settings so that the app is only enabled (i.e. only sends chat messages) on Tuesdays and on servers that have "XGN" in their names.
Version 1.20 (Mar 9, 2017):
  • Don't issue cut track warnings in qualifying.
Version 1.19 (Mar 4, 2017):
  • Don't detect cuts on the first race lap.
Version 1.18 (Nov 24, 2016):
  • Performance improvements (reduced stutter on new car/track combos)
Version 1.17 (Nov 13, 2016):
  • Stop cuts in a dirty pit lane like Nurburgring.
Version 1.16 (Nov 5, 2016):
  • Added the possibility to have separate config files for different days of the week (which we probably won't take advantage of here at XGN)
  • Added a race timer which starts counting up at the race start (which we may use on Thursdays as a handicapping system).
Version 1.15 (Jun 26):
  • Added an ENABLED_DAYS setting in the PLP.ini file. This is enabled on Tuesdays only by default.
Version 1.14 (Jun 2):
  • Fixed the lights going off early for some people due to an AC 1.6 bug in "sessionTimeLeft".
Another 1.13 (May 9):
  • Fixed the app not appearing for a small number of people.
A newer version 1.13 (Apr 25):
  • You can edit FLAG_POS in PLP.ini to move the flags to the left or right of the screen.
  • Moved the flags below the AC flags.
  • Changed the flag images to use the AC ones (with additional text)
Version 1.13 (Apr 24)
  • Use the new inPitLane variable rather than the pit limiter to detect that a car is in pit lane.
  • Added optional flag images in the top left corner of the screen for cut track warnings and drive through penalties.
Update - version 1.12 (Apr 6):
  • Only issue jump start warnings on lap 1 (hopefully to get rid of weird jump start warnings from previous sessions)
  • Briefly show the start lights when the app is activated.
  • Hide the start lights in all sessions except for race.
Update - version 1.11:
  • Fix third party imports (hopefully to fix Vipergod's problem of the app not appearing)
  • Stop jump starts from being issued on transition to the next session (now you can't jump start until after the AC lights have gone out).
Update - version 1.10:
  • Don't issue cuts after the race is over.
  • Better detection of car being in pits.
  • "Jumpable" start lights and penalties for jump starts.
Update - version 1.8:
  • Made the pitstop detection a bit more reliable.

Update - version 1.7:
  • Log what lap a pit stop was taken (lap number when you entered the pits).

Update - version 1.6:
  • Updated for AC 1.3.

Update - version 1.5:
  • Enable penalties for speeding in pit lane.
  • Added a 10 second delay between cut track penalties.

Update - version 1.3:
  • Uses tyre dirt level as well to make "wheels out" detection more accurate.

Update - version 1.2:
  • Shows app for 10 seconds on-screen before it becomes invisible, so you can see where the app is.
  • Shows a red marker when you're off track and in danger of getting a cut. When the marker goes green, you've slowed down enough to not get a cut track warning.
  • Saves the top speed for each car/track combo, for more accurate cut detection in the first lap.

Update - version 1.1:

This version of the app now gives you a 10 second time penalty added onto your race result at the end of the race every 4th cut (after 3 warnings). You do not have to take a drive through penalty. Just keep racing. You will get 10 seconds added onto your finish time at the end of the race.

Update - version 1.0:
  • Cuts are now reported in hotlap mode.
  • If you get a cut track warning in qualifying, the app flashes a warning "INVALID LAP, SLOW DOWN" for the remainder of the lap, or until you slow down to 50 kph. The app can't automatically invalidate the lap if you cut - the onus is on the driver to discard his invalid lap by slowing down.

New version is attached.

If you slow down to less than 90% of your exit speed at any time while you're off track, it won't be counted as a cut no matter how fast you rejoin the track. This gets rid of some cut warnings that shouldn't have been penalised because you slowed down enough while off track.

In the previous version, if you left the track at 200kph, stopped, then rejoined at 200kph, it would have been called a cut. It's not in this version.

There is room for all of them.   I'm going to be away with work again next week Wally so will miss tthe first round :(  I love the 49 around old Monza as well.

Bad luck Guybrush. OK,
  • cramjet
  • Flattop
  • Aiman
Are all on the grid for Monza66!

8902
Because Monza66 has 25 pit bays, I have room for two of the following, whoever can make it:
  • cramjet
  • Flattop
  • Aiman

Here are the RACE RESULTS.

Congratulations to Guybrush ('49), EdWood ('98) and Marty (125) on the wins - a mixed bag!

The lesson I learned in the Exos is that it doesn't take much of a setup change to give it too much front grip, making the rear really loose.  It needs a fair bit of rear grip.

Lotus 98 - I was glad to make it to the end without blowing the gearbox (70% turbo in the end) and did well to come 3rd. I ran pretty high wings like Ed, I think it was, who mentioned it on TS.

Lotus 49 was heaps of fun.

I'm gonna have to pull out of this season fellas. Taken on a new role at work and won't be able to reliably make it to each race. Chuck me on the reserves list and if it lines up one or two weeks, great.

Happy racing, y'all!
Bad luck cramjet. I'll put you on the reserves list.

8905
Server's up. It's a passworded server tonight.

8906
hey, went to join the server today, u are using 0.5.5? not 0.6.1?
The practice server still has 0.5 on it, but the race server will be using 0.6 tonight.

8907
Nice one Gratulin.

8909
Is it just me or is this a hard track to learn.  I think the lack of scenery/landmarks keeps seeing me forgetting where I am on this one....

I didn't find it that hard. Most of the corners are quite distinctive.

8910
Please move me back to reserve list , Gonna have bit busy for this year as having my last year of school.. and also getting ready for my first professional kart race so have to go do more exercises.. So I have less time to race online now.

I will try to come in when I can. Have a good race everyone!
OK, thanks Aiman. Good luck with everything.
