DTM Heat "mod"

I just downloaded the DTM Heat Mod and gave it a try (if you havent tried this, you should). Before I spend huge amounts of time downloading all the add-on road courses, can anyone tell me whether the AI work (and how well) on the add-on road courses that are now available such as Silverstone, Laguna Seca, etc? I have only tried one Heat add-on track (Brickyard) and I noticed that in the main game (unmodified Heat) the AI seem to crash into the wall too often at the Brickyard, is this a usual problem for add on tracks?

I haven't sat down and figured out how many, but there are some tracks that work fine and others with AI for different series. Heat has a feature where is can learn YOUR laps....so if you run a bunch of practice laps cutting corners and slamming into walls, then the ai will do that too. There is a procedure for updating the ai to your level, but I can't remember the steps, searching with google and using the groups button might dig up some info. The 'cheating' way to do it is... Rename the track. If you have Indy...rename it to dtmindy. Then go and drive about 10 clean laps. There was a reason that this wasn't the PREFERRED method, but I can't remember just what it was... :0 Finally if you go to theuspits.com and click on the tptcc league, they are in the final stages of testing a dtmv2.3 or .4. If you join the group you can access the yahoo pages and dload the latest .car files. dave henrie
