Assetto Corsa PC Mods General DiscussionPC

[Gas12]

Ilyja knows better - it's not, never was and will never be 'his' game, no matter how many things he's done to it.
It's a Kunos IP, not some dorks on Discord crying their tits out because some people are vocal about changes made to... A property they have no legal claims over ? Cry me a river mate.

I love what AC has become, I truly do, but that know-it-all attitude is tiring. If you're so great why don't you work on a game from the ground-up ? Surely something you could do, right ? Oh, yeah. Money. Le nerf de la guerre.

They're modders in the end, not Kunos employees - and some people with their inflated ego and immense sense of self-worth quickly forgot that.

It's like people encrypting other games' properties, justifying it by 'but I've worked on it therefore it's mine' !, the thing we've talked at length yesterday - you're porting stuff ripped illegally from another game and you're mad because people have been either modifying it or decrypting it ? Jesus.

Fair enough, good points. I guess maybe looking at them as unofficial developers is a tad wrong, i'll readjust my take on it.

I guess the point was, they do have the power, as i certainly don't want to go back to vanilla AC...
It's pretty clear to me that over on discord they are fed up with the encryption whining, they won't reverse it, they seem to be trolling people against it and it get tiresome, there is enough division in the world without it seeping into the areas i come to forget about it...

Bingo on Limerock BTW, stunning!

Cannot do these, I change everything and I cannot save my changes...
If someone know how to do it, I would really appreciate some help, I think it is a 5 min fix

check [x] use real data option in CM showroom (or whatever), make your changes, save.

 

[P_Johann]

Random 2 cents: encrypting mods is laughable unless you have to hide some actual classified data (see IER P13c as example) from curious eyes. Any other reason is just a combination of pettiness and hubris in different proportions

 

[bflorezr]

Encryption is here to stay as i can't see it being reversed.

I don't think this is a true statement. Obviously if a modder wants to encrypt his creation, no one will be able to stop him, but what I don't think will ever happen is that Ilya, through CM, decides to make encryption mandatory. And if that happens, well, I'm sorry, but "uninstall CM" will always be my option. But I'm sure that will never happen. So to say that encryption is here to stay, well ... I don't think so. There will always be people who won't mind using encrypted mods and people who don't like it. Each one who chooses what seems best to him. The example that you put from PCars3 is not adequate, since no user can do anything to change that game. PCars3 is a low quality arcade and always will be. On the other hand, as an AC - CM user, I can choose between using encrypted content or simply dumping it in the trash and continuing to use unencrypted mods.

just return the native values in
GRAPHICS_OFFSET = 0, -0.530,0.290 in car.ini
and everything will be fine
although no, it is better to put the height -0.480

Reboot Team,

could you give it a hand on the Istanbul Park?

We (I & Enver) are stuck at that point. And because of the work, we can't find any time to work on it.

And (if you want) there's only 3 racetracks in Turkey. Park, Korfez & Ulku... could it be possible to you to make those 2 tracks? Any visual data you want, i can arrange it (and i beileve most of our guys will do too)

Great work, been looking for a solution for a while (VR). The latest generation GT3 cars ported from ACC have the same issue and it's a real bummer.

With this new LODS I can use the WTCR cars now in VR without a problem on the most tracks. They are still not perfect, but much better than the original ones. The LOD 3 of a car should normally not have more than 5 objects. This seems to be more important for the performance in VR than the number of triangles. You don't even need a LOD 1 and 2 for a good performace when the LOD 3 is well optimized, as most of the cars during a race after the race start are more than 200 m away from the own car and the game then uses LOD 3 for these cars. A good example is the fantastic Porsche 912 R, that you can download at Racedepartment. Another example how important the number of objects is, is the URD Porsche 911 RSR 2018. It's just an update of the stock Kunos Porsche 911 RSR 2017, but the LOD 3 has more than 100 objects. So the car is unuseable for me in VR. But you can simply substitute the LOD 3 with the one from the Kunos 2017 RSR and the performance is OK and you'll see absolutely no difference ingame.

@MeltFire has also made new LODS for the "Guerilla Mod" GT4 cars v0.72.

A Reboot version of this track would be nice. I have a number of different versions and edits and addons and fixes that I stopped using it as I couldn't track which was the best version of each thing to use.

But some don't just not use encrypted mods, they chose to go on about it constantly whenever the opportunity arises and bash those that do use it or bash those that are just a bit 'meh, whatever' about it.

Greeaaat update. You guys are amazing. Looks fantastic, night is cool, attention to details is second to none.

If anything to add I would also vote for possible addition of second chicane.

Thank you. Easily my favourite version of this car for AC so far. Easier to drive than the other versions, but it will still put you in a wall if you get complacent.
The only thing it really needs is more skins to fill a grid.

don't know why but the acc audi evo is causing the problem

 

[letsdothis97]

Aren't URD working on it ?

TS050 is so last year

 

[yanki]

don't know why but the acc audi evo is causing the problem

BK Studio cars don't work at the latest csp preview. Encryption is the cause i think.

Thank you too for the great Nürburgring ´65 skin!

This is my Artstation account. Maybe i still have the mod, but its not worth
I had worked with a belgium mod team and i had done the skins. If i have still the car i can send it to you.

Did this Audi ever see the light of day for anyone? I PM'd him. Anyone have better luck? Seems a shame for it to not be out there, wonderful looking beast.

3D legacy grass fix for Reboot Team's Lime Rock.

Not really my work, it's just the old kn5 files from the previous version with a new texture...

Just a quick fix to add the 3D legacy grass back into the new update of this great track. Please note that this is not a 3D grass config, but it simply puts the old 3D grass back. I have also darkened the texture of the grass a little to match the new ground textures.
This is more for people who use vanilla AC or don't use grassfx for whatever reason.

Simply extract the file into the track's folder. I have put the darker texture into a skins/default folder, so you may wish to create a different folder for CM use.

The modders that are encrypting their mods are potentially losing money as a direct result of that decision, and that is the call that they have to make.

where did you get the idea that they care about money, none of them care about just money. If they wanted to profit off AC they would have instead sorted to do custom mods which some of them have done before like crash, but even then he doesn't just take any project. He has said before that he would take a project if its something of his particular interest. Most quality modders would also say the same thing.

RSS does not only sell mods cheap, they also offer 3D making services which is their real profit.
IER does not profit from their P13C(because it doesnt sell that good), they profit from doing accurate and REALISTIC physics in a simulator for private projects, hence the reason Cphysics exists.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not talking about all modders. I could name a few off the top of my head whose works are clearly worth the money (Sergio Loro, VRC etc) But some modders sell converted tracks and cars (or ask for 'donations' for converted tracks or cars) that aren't up to scratch and clearly not much time has been spent on them. You have to ask what the motivation behind those mods was, if not money.

However, it still doesn't change the fact that some people may not buy a mod if they know that it is encrypted, and so the modder is inevitably losing that money.
But I agree, this affects some modders - the ones who take pride in their work and just want to see their track or car in the game - less than others.

Do you not think that footage has been looked at over and over to get it as close as possible? I take pride in paying attention to details, I've been modding assetto since it came out. You need to understand there are limits to what you can and cannot do with repeat textures. You do not have the skin loaded, example sponsors are within the model, the skin changes the order to as close as possible. Liqui moly or pirelli on that corner uses the same texture as the bridge. The bridge is pirelli in real life so that corner has to be pirelli. You will then see alternate liquid moly underneath to compensate. If I post something that states its as close as absolutely possible, it means that it is absolutely as close as possible. All variants are tried out, looked at and debated as to what the best outcome is for everyone's enjoyment of realism. The pirelli bridge has more impact of being correct than a liqui moly one which would stand out as being obviously wrong. Extra 3D model parts have been added in like the rolex bridge, antenna on the building, electronic billboard, trackside boards, drs boards, even equipment inside the garages that most people don't notice. Sorry for the rant but anybody who may think I don't care about quality work is enough to stop me sleeping at night. I have seen many rubbish track skins on racedepartment and people here downloading them, reviewing them and I wonder if they can really tell the difference between quality or not. I know you mean well with your video clip which won't play I suspect as F1 links are usually removed as the FIA don't allow but I want to assure you that my work in my opinion has been the best it can be and if its not 100% I won't rest until it is. What does bother me is that someone might think I'm someone who might just chuck some bits together without doing my homework first. At the end of the day it's a game, it has mods, some of those mods are not great. I can only do my best with the limitations I face, I try and source the best track mod versions first then skin those versions so I know it won't/ can't possibly get any better.

Some begs are so ridiculous that don't even deserve a reply. Well done and thanks for your work.

Imagine if all members remember to ask some personal details... Just because.
Human beings (some) definitely need some review priorities.

Even tho, let me ask for a little update. The new white line after exiting pit boxs, are in fact 1 mm wider as yours.
Can you please update this important fact. I usually pass there at +300 km/h and I don't like to see that difference.

Thank you. Easily my favourite version of this car for AC so far. Easier to drive than the other versions, but it will still put you in a wall if you get complacent.
The only thing it really needs is more skins to fill a grid.

Some cool era skins. https://www.racedepartment.com/downloads/auto-union-type-c-skin-pack.40205/
