    DiRTy Gossip about DIRT Rally Games

    Definitely tire temperatures. 100%. First lap is basically the tires warming up, which is why every single time you go into the Joker on Lydden on the start you'll be sliding all over the place, 2nd lap, nice and smooth. Whether that is implemented in rally is a completely different story though. I don't feel much difference in Spain, if any at all. But I can easily tell on every RX circuit with every RX car that the tires definitely warm up. They got the data from Cooper Tires after all, so it stands to reason that the simulation of those should be much more advanced, so naturally tire temperature is a must (Gran Turismo 4 had it ffs). If they simulate tire temps there should be tire pressure as well. I'm truly doubting tire temps are a thing in D4.  As said I've had the first corner in hell literally behaving like ice. No grip what so ever. If that would be due to cold tires it would happen frequently. I only had it once or twice over 20-30 heats.

    I think they have implemented tyre temperatures, because I noticed in last (or the one before that) week's weekly in Spain that my Metro was a bit skittish, but the further I got along the stage, the more grip I had, and could attack harder! I asked Paul if this was the case, but didn't get an answer. I don't think they are simulating tire temps, but only Paul can answer that. Yes Sho I had the ice bug in RX a few times, but this was mostly in pre release testing. Sometimes it was only the first corner in Hell on the first lap. I also had it in Montalegre. If it would be tire temps it would happen frequently.

    The whole front of the Focus '01 is slightly... skewed. In other words inaccuracies in the 3D models and their textures. There are a lot of similar issues in DR as well and probably older DiRT titles as well, along with other games, just that... most don't notice them and fixing them would often require extra resources spent and what not. Expenses for things only few people notice and are bothered with are things that the accountants don't care. On that note, I remember that NFS Hot Pursuit 2010 had quite inaccurate rear of the Porsche Carrera GT. As long as the inaccuracies aren't as big as in SLRE I'm happy.

    Well deserved. Everybody should unplug now and then. It's good for you. Have a nice holiday!

    DiRTy Gossip about DIRT Rally Games

    Here @bogani, I will confirm for you that there is a very noticable loss of power and a distinct misfire sound  This is my mk2 Escort run. The torque turns to jello when you get a misfire. https://youtu.be/Wfdjs3d-z6I It also happened to me on Stage 3 of the Hyundai event. And even though I had only driven the Hyundai 2 stages previously,, when the misfire occured, the. loss was immediately obvious  Ah, nice. I never had that, only Nicky telling me there is one. Good to know it's there.

    So, @KickUp, is this just a neat detail without any real consequence?

    Quite often you get noise from the gearbox and Nicky saying there is a problem. Anyone ever had an actual problem following that, like missing a gear/gear stuck? Same thing when Nicky claims misfire. I never feel any power loss and then engine sound itself never sounds like it misfires.

    Yup, miss the crisp gravel clatter from DR. The surface audio feedback inside the car was better in DR.

    Overall I think the pacenotes work better than I anticipated but there are some of them that are off yes. Might be when you are carrying speed of a straight tile and the next tile is a hairpin? The system might be troublesome when it comes from one tile to another.

    Toe-in at the front gives stability. If you want better turn in you use toe-out. The description in the tuning menu is wrong at the moment. They are aware of that :)  Oh so thats the infamous incorrect tuning description?  I though that was only in Dirt Rally. Wasn't it just as simple as changing some text for it to be fixed for Dirt 4? Wasn't this something someone mentioned a few months with the early press footage of the tuning menu? Also, I'm surprised that no ones asked for Larsens Biscuits or Peniston Oils for sponsors. Yup that would be me. It'll be changed in a future patch.

    Are you saying you can't do scandinavian flicks in D4? You don't even own the game yet, right?

    Pretty interesting that you can save setups for tarmac, gravel, snow and mixed. Probably means nothing, but driving around the mixed surface area in Dirtfish, I think D4 could do a great job with a mixed gravel/tarmac rally. Or maybe it's Monte Carlo on the horizon? ;)

    Driving they Hyundai R5 around Dirtfish, I can't ask anything more physics wise. It'spretty much everything I could ever want. It's not understeering allover the place. It feels perfectly balanced. The core physics is absolutely awesome. One thing I don't really care for is the insta spins if you're wheel of the road. It's like you are on slivks and touch the grass.

    Impressive pace by Hänninen so far!

    Looking forward to a lengtier rundown from you :) I feel the core physics improved lots. There are some niggles though. Billy at ISR sums up my thoughts perfectly so far. I think his rundown of things are pretty much spot on. https://youtu.be/5Q-D5vaivGc

    That's Michigan. I saw three rabbits in Australia too. Rabbits everywhere! Pretty sure there are deer in Spain too. Haven't seen one, but there are road-signs with jumping deer on them. The wild life is a cool thing that adds imersion, Im glad they kept it in from Dirt Rally and expanded on it. I hope there are more types of animals to come too, like Kangaroos in Australia and maybe some badgers in Wales? Sweden has Yetti's don't they?  :D No, you are thinking of  drunk Norwegians. :#

    Tarmac isn't the surface people have remarks on though. The RWD's powerslides great on tarmac ;)

    I find the Evo extremely prone to understeer, no matter how I set it up. Once you get a nice slide going the back end regains grip and straightens the car.

    the thing is if you pushing as fast as you can go you will be faster if you can drive  well in sim mode.maybe with having a few of the things off actually made him slower due to the handling is harder.so arcade suited him. i did a track with just a couple of added things in sim mode and i was about 3 seconds slower.so all of sim mode . There is a big difference between assisted sim mode and gamer. You can brake later, turn in later, carry more speed through corners in gamer. A quick person in gamer should be faster, no doubt.
