[RELEASE:]

RELEASE:

This is a REWORK of the Standard M2 bike, hopefully sorting some of its issues out while adding some extra realism.

CHANGELOG

- New Engine:

> Reduced Power to Moto2 Honda Levels
> Amended Inertia to Match CBR600rr Inertias
> Amended Engine braking to be less harsh

- New Shifting Simulation:

> Amended shift times
> Amended Blip Behaviour
> Reduced Rear Lock ups

- New Suspension Values

> Amended damping values - Rebound damping now behaves as it should and settles the bike - Bump damping has been slowed down for balancing as well

- New Virtual Rider Values

> Amended The virtual rider to (Hopefully) smooth out some aspects of the steering
> Amended the virtual rider to (Hopefully) slow down some aspects of the steering

- New Tyre Simulation

> Changed Torus' Radii to match real life Moto2 Tyres (Measurements courtesy of Zonta84)
> Changed Tyre Width to match real life Moto2 Tyres (Measurements courtesy of Zonta84)
> Amended Lean angles

Man, I feel a bit like your slave here.
Ever thought about learning c/c++ (just the basics, that's enough) ?
All the info for the plugin interface is here on the forum ...

But its all just simple "if" statements did you not know?   

[BUMP]

BUMP

[Question for all:]

I understood that, but the tool  was displaying some sort f slipping %, that's not something you see while you're on a bike.

Yes, your mechanic can see it when you go back to pit (or even in real time, in some cases), but for that there's MaxTM.

Yes that sounds good. Are the parameters that cause the controller vibration viewable in MaxTM? Could be useful for correlation to the actual riding.

Once the next beta of GPB is out I have some small swork to do anyway (wide UI), so I'll have a look.
Plan is to have the numbers show only during practice (so that you can tune the rumble to what you like).

Good plan, sounds good 

Question for all: have you tried the rumble thing on a wet track ?

I haven't, but I shall give it a go later tonight as I want to turn some laps today 

Great job m0.

Guess I can close the database now lol

Id hold off for a few months if you are then we can get the mods re-uploaded to the new site.

That way we can update what's needed and don't lose any. I'm hoping to go through the database and do just that over the winter period so yeah. 

A few updates to the model of Adriatic could be a good plan, for b21 possibly.

The real version has kerbs that are 'double wide' at various points, Turns 6 and 16, would be nice to have this modelled.

Also there are a few holes on the joining between track and grass areas - Turn 14 and 15 having the biggest.

Would just be nice for a slight update.

In principle I'm against that, that's not info you have while riding (at least, not directly in numbers).
I'm pondering only having this in testing sessions (i.e. not in practice/quali/warmup/race etc.).
I should probably do that for other widgets too (e.g. HUDLean, for the same reasons).

For me it depends which way you want to go.

It depends on if you want to look at it as a rider, or as the riders mechanic. Now as this isn't milestones MotoGP we don't have a 'guided setup' option so for me I've always looked at these tools as the 'mechanic' to help set the bike up.

I personally think this would be the best way to go, as it covers all bases (those who want it have it, but those who don't use it don't have to)

That being said I think (if you can) make it so it's only usable in test/practice/qualy/warmup but not the race that would be a great compromise. As let's be real, once the race starts, what the bike does becomes irrelevant, as you got what you got. (beyond max TM values where you can look at the race data etc)

Awesome! Been needed this will make it so easy

I'd love to see the one lap wonder qualy that was superpole introduced into GPB. With motoe using it as "epole" (until next yr) it's not out of the realms for a modern GP rule set to include it. Would also add some spice to the qualy sessions

  

I'm going to suggest a change to the start light sequences in online races.

This concerns the 2D lights that pop up when sat on the grid.

The pop up disappears and then re-appears when the start sequence kicks in.

Would it be possible to not have it appear at all, as I've seen a few jump starts when the helper disappears rather than when the start lights go out.

Instead of that maybe have a Marshall hold a red flag 20m further Infront of the grid or something, and then when he disappears have the light helper come on?

This could reduce the confusion, and add some extra realism, as the light units only come on irl during the start sequence, the red flagger holds the grid prior.

I mean in theory you could use Hamachi to trick it into using LAN instead I suppose.

But I'm not sure as I haven't tried it

Following the updated outboard announcement in the daily dev reprise, I was wondering if it would be possible to see all the pit boards when riding past.

As in you can see other people's on the wall not just yours (yours is the only 2d pop up however)

Milestones MotoGP 21 has it so any pitboard of someone within about 5 seconds on track is visible over the pit wall, so you get the cool visual of riding past them all.

Would be cool to see something similar in GPB.

(I also hope the new pitboard is paintable )
