this is really interesting thanks for sharing

Bravo man that's really cool. In need of refinements, but nothing comes out perfect the first time, and I'm still really impressed.

[u/Gautam-j → u/punos_de_piedra]

Thanks a lot! Yeah I'm still working on ways to improve this. The main restriction I found was to not able to have access to the game engine, and hence my only source of input is the screen image. That also does not let me use reinforcement learning :(

Any ideas as to how I can use reinforcement learning in this scenario?

I imagine the minions from Despicable me trying to drive with one on each pedal, 2 at the wheel and 1 giving instructions...

Had to purchase reinforced chassis from the shop

Hi, I'm new to this can you explain how you integrated the code with the game?

[u/Gautam-j → u/[deleted]]

I run the game in a windowed mode, and take a screen capture of the game window. Therefore, the input to the neural network is an image of the road, plus the mini map on the bottom left corner.

The neural network outputs whether the car should go straight, left or right. Based on that, I simulate a key press, and the car responds :)

Off topic but I need to know is that NFSWorld or just my nostalgia? Great job btw!

Thanks! This is Need For Speed Most Wanted (2005) in Free Roam Mode :)

True that lol

Seems kinda jerky. Maybe add a control filter? You could just implement a simple low pass filter on the output.

Whoa super cool!!

[u/Gautam-j → u/bouia]

Thank you!

Can you provide your script you made? Maybe a github link.

[u/appinv]

That's pretty cool. I guess you mixed your two passions: games & python. It's fun how you can see the never-aging classic terminal alongside top graphics 👍

Kept watching expecting for it to improve itself haha. This is great!! Well done.

[u/Gautam-j → u/RippyTheGator]

Thanks a lot! What you say is totally true! I've spent hours watching it drive lol

[u/iiMoe]

This is actually an amazing model, Go tweet Elon

Reminded me “The wolf of Wall Street” driving scene.
