To install, unzip the file and place the XML in your Documents\NRatings\MyFormulas folder. When you go to apply ratings in NRatings, select "ai_line_mod Full Season Roster" or "ai_line_mod Single Race Roster" as the formula.
One formula is for ratings applied to a single roster per season and accounts for partial season starters (this is the same as the prior version). The other formula is for a unique roster per race in a season and does NOT account for partial season starters. The final standings should be roughly similar (given in game variability) for each, as long as you are mindful that your single race rosters are accurate.
In other words, only one formula needs to be applied per carset per season, and the flavor you choose depends on whether you use one roster for the entire season, OR one roster per race in the season.
These ratings were developed and are intended to be used with the default papy_ai.ini. They were tested mostly on papyrus tracks with all physics types, primarily around 50% race length (though all race lengths were tested). They were modeled after the winston cup era, with the 80s, 90s, and early 00s races/seasons being the stats that were most heavily referenced during development.
Expect single race variability but overall season accuracy.
