If I didn't I would go mad!
Using AI Tweak for competitive GPL races
Players discussed whether they use the AI Tweak utility to adjust GPL's opponent speed. Rob Adams described instead resetting the AI to defaults and making player.sts read-only to keep Novice-level opposition beatable, and others debated how AI levels interact with championship modes. A download link for AI Tweak was shared.
Automated summary.
If I didn't I would go mad!
I used it for a while, but then I stopped. What I did instead was use AI
Tweak to reset all AI to their original values, then make my PLAYER.STS file
read/only.
Then I just started racing Novice. Once you get to a reasonable level of
ability, you should be able to compete there. For example, at Monza the
qualifying time is between 1:30 and 1:31. If you can compete on-line then
you should be able to compete with the Novice AI.
You can even run the World Champ at Novice level.

Well...you can, s'pose, but you will be at F1 level and all the opposition
(AI) will be at the Novice level.

with AI tweak u can set the AI to run at Novice lap times in Championship mode,
just can't change them to Trainers

I'm currently at the 4th race (Spa) tied for 2nd place with:
Kya: 2nd, Monaco: 4th (after starting on pole), Zandy: 3rd (after starting
on pole).
Fun way to improve your times one track at a time. I've dropped my GPL Rank
from 130's to 62!

When u load up AItweak, it shows a default AI skill level of 1.0 for PRO/GP
races. Where as Novice shows 1.2 (the default at which GPL starts) I kinda
think the 1.0 above takes precedence when u jump into a championship doesn't
it?
wish i could remember lol
I helped with the last version of aitweak lol

race at Monza, then I discovered that at Novice level I was beating them
easily. So I pressed any "Default" button I could find in AI Tweak, and set
my player.sts file to read/only.
So I don't really know what level of "tweak" the AI is at. I assumed that it
was back to square 1.
I was planning to just race each track at Novice until I could get top 3. I
wasn't EVER planning on doing the World Champ because I thought it only ran
at GP length. But I thought I should at least look, and you can specify
Novice.
If lap times help, my 1:30.96 at Monaco was pole, as was my 1:29.17.
Either way, I'm having tons of fun running the championship. I'm cheating of
course - if I crash out of a race or even get a really bad start, I exit and
try again. But if I get passed fair and square by the AI I don't exit. Hence
the 4th at Monaco. I led for the first half, then crashed at the chicane and
lost 3 spots.

He brings you down to his level, thenI guess if you set everything to default, yer sts read only (delete it then
restart gpl so it gets created again, then make it readonly). You should now be
set at just like it came outta the box, and it will stay that way with yer sts
read only
I'm just pretty sure the AI will be faster at PRO levels than Novice tho

Either way , just enjoy it

until I get front row - abandoning races until that happens. Then if I screw
up at the start or during the race I abandon. I only complete a race if I'm
doing well. GPL's pretty nice about that - it saves your qualifying times if
you want, and doesn't save race results if you quit early. If I get passed
fair and square I don't quit but if I spin I quit - I don't want to finish
out of the points.
So yeah, I have to be fast enough to compete, but it's not an all-or-nothing
thing. I really want to see what happens when you win a season (people who
have, please don't tell me!).
You (Eldred) should be able to get the same results as me - until yesterday
we were basically tied in GPL Rank (then I found a few seconds at Mosport
and Spa).
And keep in mind this is a NOVICE world champ - the AI cars are considerably
slower at that level (F1 cars (not trainers), but Novice level). I have a
little spreadsheet that simulates GPL Rank but uses average novice qual
times as the benchmark and I'm in the 30's, most of which is at the Ring.
