spa 24 hr help

pastiewhite · 13 April 08, 23:00

so I've started and am about 9 hours into the spa 24 hr race in an offline 2004 season. I started with a 20 car grid I'm now down to only about 10 cars including me. iwas just wondering if anyone has run into this problem and if there is a way to fix it?

Try editing the talent files (w/notepad). I believe there is a "crash", "finish/completion rate", and other settings that may need to be tweaked a bit. If you are having probs with AI competiveness, try improving the "racing ability" setting by lowering value closer to 0 (lower the better). Default racing ability is set about 2.0-3.5 which didn't work for me even though I have AI ability set to 120% with the slider in the menu.

In 24 hour races i tend to find that cars are fine for the first hour, then just forget they are racing. They suddenly are like 15-25 seconds off the pace! Is there a way to prevent that?

And also, cars randomly retiring in the pit lane for no reason? What's with that!
