Empty Box talks Assetto Corsa V1.4

Recently Kunos Simulazioni has released Update 1.4 for their popular Assetto Corsa title. While the new build features a big selection of fixes and optimisations, the new version also introduced a new algorithm to improve the ability for AI drivers to stick to an intended racing line. resulting in better behaviour during door-to-door racing. Furthermore, the code related to the braking algorithm is now able to understand and use locked inside tyres for front-wheel drive cars.

While the new Assetto Corsa V1.4 build features a big selection of fixes and optimisations, the new version also introduced a new algorithm to improve the ability for AI drivers to stick to an intended racing line. resulting in better behaviour during door-to-door racing. Furthermore, the code related to the braking algorithm is now able to understand and use locked inside tyres for front-wheel drive cars. The new and improved code should result in a much better behaviour during close racing sessions against the IA. Furthermore, the code also introduced a better AI braking algorithm.

To find out if this new code really improves the artificial intelligence of your computer generated opponents, Video blogger Empty Box jumped into the McLaren 650 GT3 for a Talk & Drive race on the Brands Hatch Circuit. Both the featured car and track are part of the Assetto Corsa Dreampack #3 that was released together with the V1.4 update.
