kn5unpack sorry, just run it from command line, it's basically self explanatory.

I use the command line a lot and it´s no prob for me, but in this case it´s easier just to “Create Link in Desktop” and drag´n´drop *kn5 files to that link icon. Waaayyy easier.

Additional a quick fix for Helsinki Thunder from @GzeroD posted a few days ago. Fixed the half transparent building at start. Added some grass and water fx.

No one found the easteregg on Spielberg? @VheEth maybe just take a look on it. Coincidentally it matches something you just asked before.

Edit: additional tipp for that drag´n´drop kn5 to unpack: I generated an extra "work" directory somewhere else then content\tracks\ to leave that tracks folder clean, but no need to. Just don´t forget to clean it afterwards.

I saw the chimney smoke yesterday but forgot to mention it. Oops!

For some reason that track randomly crashes back to desktop for me. It's the only track in a very long time that has done that for me

 

[civicgsir]

Any suggestions what should I install first?

Content Manager and give something for the full version.

Then CSP and Sol after that if you want the time cycle and dynamic weather. You can adjust it to your PC performance level.

Search this thread for anything and you'll likely get a lead.

Typical for the era: lots of crashes !

Which track? There are the original reboot track and the one Zwiss enhanced. Does it crashes without config too? If so I´ll try to fix it, though I hadn´t any crashes iirc.

 

[Fred Basset]

Could this one fit your ask?

Im really trying to track down the one i posted up made by Remco & abbo90 1.5 Its a clean factory stock version, correct wheels and front spoiler badge, factory seats.

I dont know why I'm excited at the prospect of BBQ grill smoke track side.

Thinking it adds an element of LIFE to the track....even more immersion.

Trying to reduce the dirt effect on a windscreen. Not remove it completely, just reduce the effect so it's not so annoying driving into low sun.
I've grabbed the internal windscreen dds and exported it (in CM showroom)
I've opened it for editing in Photoshop (and weirdly, don't get the option to load the alpha channels separately, which is where the problem might lie).
I assumed reducing the opacity, saving it and replacing it for the existing one on the car would do the job, but nope. I just get weird results.
What simple thing am I borking here?
Ta muchly.

You can find a nice tutorial here from technoluddite (VAC):

[P1ButtPlug]

Plus all the different variations in CSP screens

But every version going back 6-8 months made no different, stuck at that 80.
So its one setting in there thats being a Debbie Downer.

👍
RA. All the brats and bbq's all around the track, you always see heavy smoke from doing some cookin at races

I'll do more testing without the config later, tried 3 different cars and the random crashes were there. CSP 1.52, sol 1.6. I'll get back to you when I get time to do more tests.

Just wondering if you had a link for the BRZ GT4, Beezer's original link is down unfortunately. No worries if not, just after some more diversity in my GT4 grids!

Cheers!

this is the fixed-collider-version... as previously mentioned here.
note: discontinued due to being of inferior quality, and replaced by the Toyota model instead (more info here).

as suggested, a good grid-filler for the time being.
Subaru BRZ GT4

Awesome, thank you! Diversity in GT4 is the spice of life!

Cheers dude!

Yeah sorry, I edited post, you were too quick lol

Thanks guys. So it seems to create a .dae file. I was expecting an .fbx file. Is there a way for kseditor to open .dae files? It does not provide the option in kseditors file dialogue.

Typical for the era: lots of crashes !

I crashed into the invisible wall in the F333SP after outbraking myself into that dodgy corner (maybe Bosch Curve) and going for a journey across the grass.
Really enjoying the track but I find it hard to spot those braking boards lol. Must get some more laps in there and learn where to brake.

 

[mrtomcat66]

Thanks you, but I don't mean traffic AI. I was looking for something like the Special Stage tracks in GT.

OK. That is super easy. Just download the Shuto C1 track (https://assettocorsa.club/mods/tracks/shuto-expressway-c1.html). It already has 2 versions which are "race ready for AI". C1 is only 14.8 km per loop, but that is longer than the GT Special Stage Routes (excapt SSR7). C1 has 12 pits. I think I have installed some addons to make it look nicer but that was a long time ago.

Hmmm I get fbx when the tool is finished:

View attachment 936938

It looks like I'm getting every file, except the fbx.

I just noticed this error. I had to be fast because it shows the error and then instantly closes the window. I was like a ninja.

End up with this, no fbx:

I have two tool files from you. AcTools.dll and Kn5Unpack.exe. I think I might be missing something else. I found another download resource for the unpacker. checking now.

Ok. I finally managed to buy AC on PC. I am console player and never got chance to try this game on PC. I was afraid about performance. But after discount on Steam I decided to risk some money buy it and try it on my laptop. I was shocked that this SIM is working so great! It went 100FPS on ultra low settings in benchmark mode so I can put some details up to stay on 60 FPS

So here is my question. Where i should start with using mods? Any suggestions what should I install first? Or which mods to avoid? How to keep everything clean and tidy and avoid mess with files? Are those dynamic time of day mods very CPU consuming?

I have:
Lenovo Y580 Laptop:
i7-3630QM 2.4 ghz
16GB ram
GeForce 660M GTX

First off, you're going to be overwhelmed. That's OK. Anybody just coming into this world will be.
You're going to pay for Content Manager, then get SOL then you're going to find your settings that get you running the best. Don't worry about cars and tracks so much until after this. You'll start finding out who makes the good stuff and what other stuff is fodder. Take your time and have fun through the process. The people here can help.
No matter what you do, stay away from that beezer guys mods, he's a hack.

good morning friends.
I need help with a modification that I am doing.
I am trying to create extra lights on an old mod (the vehicle does not have lights) so I wanted to include both front and rear rain lights, make them show in the game but I can't get them to turn on. can anybody help me? I send the mod if you want privately
Thank you

 

[Montie]

Hadn't been there in a while, reflections are there but theres some super strange textures in wet. At nearly all angles its checkered.
Stupid question, you are selecting the wet version aren't you? And you have 1.2? If all your other wet tracks are reflective, then its not a shader setting.

Mine looks like this on the wet version of the track

What are you putting in your lights.ini? It's basically finding the object and labeling it in lights.ini. Attach it in here or message if you want and I can see if I can get something to light up.

Does anyone use NeckFX in CSP? I have not used it for quite some time, but I tried to activate it yesterday and it does not seem to be working. Could one of the CSP updates since I last used NeckFX have broken it?

My bad, damn sorry man. You need this also

Thanks. Got it.

Is there something else that needs to be done with the 'model.fbx' that it generates? I've tried opening the 'model.fbx' in 2 different versions of KsEditor, and it seems to try and load it for a minute and then KsEditor just closes, nothing else.

Did you try Kunos original editor?

 

[dragster666]

are there any race cars with gauges like these? since the GT6 Diablo GT2 doesn't come with digital gauges.

 

[kimiraik]

Yes so if for example you ever wondered why the guy standing at the end of the pits was holding his buttocks like this..

if you add something like this to config:

[SMOKE_...]
POSITION = -156.28, -1.66, 14.78
DIRECTION = 2, 0, 0
SPEED = 25
SIZE = 0.1
COLOR = 0.1, 1.5, 0.1, 1
SPREAD = 8
INTENSITY = 1

You can now see that it is clearly because he ate something bad and has a terrible wind problem today.

You can just use object inspector to click somewhere and find desired location.

Sorry for that imbecile example guys and girls
(not actually sorry at all)

Haha just look at the poor guy's face, he just can't do s*** about it oh wait sorry, not the best word choice was it

 

[safi hellie]

Yep mine too.
(I'd like the reflections for cool pictures, but in reality stuff only reflects like the snazzy pictures in puddles..just a wet track wont make mirror reflections....but yeah...like you, i want them to.)
