Unfortunately not, unless there's a option in Content Manager I'm overlooking, I can find the "Toggle AI" setting which just sits at default Ctrl-C but that toggle definitely doesn't work , turns on, never turns off (lots of questions about how to toggle the AI on various forums) and I can't see an extra "turn off AI" keybind.
I believe it's just labelled ”unbind Ctrl+P” - presumably to avoid conflicts with the print function... will take a look when I'm next on my gaming PC (just had to shut down after an hour of sliding a 911 RSR through the old Spa Kink before I forget to go to bed! biggrin)

I have just upgraded a couple of gaming PCs, and could put together something suitable if you are interested.

At the moment I have

Ryzen 5 2600 system in a Silverstone HTPC Case (16GB, 550 Gold PSU, 1TB m.2)
Ryzen7 5800x system in a define R5 case. (32GB memory, 650 platinum PSU, 1TB M.2) Currently in use

GTX1080
RTX2070

I'm updating my HTPC/VR and gaming rigs to Ryzen 7000 series.

I did try the Ctrl+P thing but got nowhere (as with Ctrl+C it disabled AI but didn't give me back control, sending the car into the next available wall!) and then forgot all about it.

But... I just tried the latest development preview of CSP and found the Ctrl+C toggle to be fixed - just miffed the AI immediately smashed my best lap-time of the session!

I have recently got into modding, I have downloaded the content manager and installed SOL. How are you getting the rain effects, do you have to pay for this mod.

I have downloaded a mod for the Nordschleife and am trying to improve my times on the bridge to gantry track in a 911 GT3 RS. Best time so far is a 7:02

Where do you get the London street track from?

And it always seems to look better on the YouTube videos than my machine, what other mods do you recommend to make it look more realistic?

Do you have Custom Shaders Patch (CSP) installed too? (can't remember if this is required with Content Manager/ Sol or an 'optional extra', but the free version is pretty much an essential to get the game looking good)

Next 'upgrade' would probably be to pick a decent Post Processing filter (Natural Mod's probably my 'go to', free at Racedepartment, but there's plenty of others worth trying depending on the look you want/ hardware setup)

Rain comes with the 'paid for' 'development preview' versions of CSP - you get access to these by subsribing to the Patreon (only a quid or so / month)

The final thing to look at is Pure (effectively Sol 2.0) - again this is Patreon subscribers only, but under with a different developer to CM/ CSP, so that's another quid or so a month.

I'll let someone else advise on the London street track as I'm not familiar with it!

Installed latest CSP and I still cannot wrest control back from the AI once toggled. Utterly infuriating, I'm baffled as to why my install doesn't seem to want to play. cry

frown Just to check/ confirm my setup, I'm on CSP 0.180-preview442 and have Custom Shaders Patch > General Patch Settings > Unbind Ctrl+P ticked (not that I'd expect that to make any difference - I'm toggling via Ctrl+C)

Out of interest what mod did you get for the Nordschleife? Always enjoyed the Kunos versions the way they managed to incorporate all layouts (TF, VLN/N24 etc.)

I enjoy firing up AC for a hoon from time to time, I have a fair few mod cars and tracks but all from a few years ago so it's probably worth having a scout for some new stuff!

I also just rediscovered Richard Burns Rally (installed the rallysimfans updated free version), I had forgotten how damn good it is - the graphics might be a bit old-school now but that means you don't need a beast of a PC to run it, and the physics and car handling still beats Dirt rally etc hands down. Been having a great time tonight with the TA64 Celica Group B.

There's never been a better time for SIM racing IMO.

AC with continued community MODs and the introduction of LFM
AMS2 is getting better and better all of the time, looks fantastic and performs brilliantly in VR. Once they sort out the weird sliding/grip and multiplayer, it'll be a great SIM.
iRacing - Ultimate multiplayer option IMO
ACC - fantastic GT3 SIM, and with LFM
RF2 - good BTCC content, but otherwise I don't bother.

Whatever it is/was is cured by the new "Pure" mod, the sucessor to Sol.
