Live voice coaching in Assetto Corsa EVO: advice before every corner
Telemetry tells you where you lost time after the session. ACE Coach tells you what to change while you are still driving: a short spoken sentence before each corner, also written on a small overlay.
ACE Coach is available to M2R Patreon members. You log in with your Patreon account.
What the coach tells you
The coach compares your last lap with the reference lap you chose and finds, corner by corner, the one thing that costs you the most time. Then it says it before you get there, in plain words:
- “Next corner, brake 10 m later.”
- “Next corner, carry more speed.”
- “Next corner, turn in earlier.”
- “Next corner, get back on the throttle earlier.”
- “Next corner, brake harder and hold it.”
- “Next corner, stay in third.”
Written and spoken
The advice appears on a compact overlay and is spoken with the voice of Windows. It is timed to end about a second before the braking point, so it never talks over the corner itself. Long advice is shortened for the voice. The overlay is a small always-on-top window that you can drag anywhere; it appears by itself in your sessions and hides outside them. Volume and mute are in its title bar.
A verdict after every corner
When the corner is behind you, a ding (good) or a buzzer (not yet, or too much) and a word on the overlay tell you how it went: “Good job”, “Not yet” or “Too much”. You learn what works within a few laps instead of at the end of the session.
Choose who you chase
The reference is your own best lap, the fastest lap ever set on that track and car, or the best lap of any driver on the leaderboard. Right-click the overlay to change it at any time. Out laps and invalidated laps are recognised and never used for coaching.
In your language
The voice and the text of the overlay follow the language of Windows: English, Italian or French today, or the one you pick from the icon next to the clock. The voice uses the Windows voice of that language, which you can add in Settings, Time & language, Language & region.
Light on your PC
In our measurements the coach window uses about half a percent of the processor and the program that records your laps practically nothing, so your frame rate is not affected.
