I have a ruby red widebody BMW M3 E36 (A Class performance index) the problem is with traction and stability control off it keeps sliding around on corners on low gears which is pretty hard to recover from.
I would appreciate any solution to this.
TAKE NOTE: This is not a drift build
This has happened on all my cars
Lower rear diff settings, soften suspension settings, change gearing so that unless absolutely necessary stay in 3rd or higher, less negative camber in the rear, only use as much front camber as needed, usually less than 1.5 but it depends on the car, lower tire pressure but not to extremes. Most importantly, exercise smooth throttle and braking. Those are things I use to set a base tune, fine tuning will come with the track and personal preference. I’m not an expert by any means, but it’s a starting point. Hope that can help.
Check my storefront if interested, I mainly drive the e36 m3 A class and the e46 s1 class. Both tunes are available and downloads are greatly appreciated. DoomCrueOG in the storefront.
soften suspension, This game makes most cars come with MUCH too stiff springs and dampers than needed.
also lengthen your gear ratios for the lower gears until the sliding is under control, compensate by shortening the higher gears.
Try a 60-10 setting on the differential.
set toe on the rear wheels to -0.2
consider your ARB balance for tuning under/oversteer.
Ok
Any recommened gear ratios (for Turbocharged cars as well)?
Gear ratios vary depending on; the max torque, RPM for max torque, red line, etc. But in most cases you want to set the final fear ratio so that the gears fill the graph. then increase the first gear until it almost touches the 2nd next gear. then “smooth out” the gears in between 1st and final, making them look tapered (getting progressively shorter) on the graph.
no amount of tuning is gonna fix an unbalanced build…unforunately w the p.i. system he way it is on this game thats what you end up w most the time…you may try leaving on some weight plus the roll cage help on some cars…stiff front end in relation to the rear will help you to not spin out when accelerating thru the turns … keep rear arb kinda low probably…i think vipers advice was pretty good:)
many suggestions are useful here however … even if many might not like it, 4WD swap is the most straightforward and BEST competitive route for almost all FRs, especially below S1. Blame the ruined PI in FH3.
Exceptions are mostly only S1 MR cars with their rear weight to aid traction, or sth like AMG GT with more than 50% rear weight, and even if they’re faster without 4WD the risk of powerslide-errors is still massive for a balanced S1 build (~800-1000hp) and quite skill-demanding.
I’d rather keep it A Class
what i meant after all that was simply that 4WD swap is outright better for your M3, regardless of classes :3
Probably
But I’m going to sell them on Auction site
