Le Mans 1967

Le Mans 1967 v1.0

This is my take on the le_grand_circuit_1967 track done by Terra21 and updated by WooChoo and Virtua_LM. All credit for the track goes to those guys. I simply added some CSP features and altered a few textures\meshes to give it a look I prefer. It is a standalone track so as not to mess with the original and will come up as Le Mans 1967 in your track list. If you have a preferred ai you use with the original track, just copy it over to this version if you decide to use this. I'm not sure which ai version the track currently has right now because I was swapping out different versions.

Additions:

-- Seasonal changes.
-- Animated flags.
-- Animated CSP smoke in the fall and winter.

-- Slightly altered grass textures to fit my eye better. Three versions for this you can try if you want with a simple ext_config edit. Towards the bottom of the config is a section named Grass Look. There are two [SHADER_REPLACEMENT_...] sections for the GRASS_A_MUD material that you can set Active or Inactive to slightly change the look. If you set them both to ACTIVE=0, the grass will be much greener and more saturated. The two alternatives give a progressively more brown tint. I like having the second one set active, which is how it is by default. You can monkey around with the ambient and diffuse values to get a brightness you prefer.

-- Reworked sand areas to give them some character and eliminate the monotonous look. I took some creative liberties with this so it's not 100% accurate to the real track at that time. There are two ways you can have the sand areas look on the Mulsanne Straight. By default it has more green grass than it probably should, but it helps to break up the look. The second way has less grass and more of a brown tint. To enable the alternate version, open up the models.ini file and in the [MODEL_2] section, change the line that reads FILE=le_grand_circuit_1967_terrain.kn5 to FILE=le_grand_circuit_1967_terrain2.kn5.

-- New pine trees texture. This one has some faults because the trunks don't quite line up with the uv mapping correctly. The original pine tree texture had slightly curved trunks. Mine doesn't so you can see some double trunks in spots if you are really looking for them. It doesn't bother me, but if it does for you, just disable the Trees track skin.
-- The Misc track skin doesn't need to be enabled. It's a skin created by Instevs36 that I got from RD that I use at times. As mentioned, the Trees track skin can be disabled as well, but always leave the Terrain skin enabled.

Update to version 1.0. Final version for now. I may revisit it in the future. Everything is packaged together, including the 54 pit optional layouts.

-- New ext_config and replay cams created by @CrisT86 with improved track lighting for night races. He did other things as well, but I couldn't tell you what they are. I just know it looks good. Thank you @CrisT86.
-- Some minor tweaks to correct a few floating trees and very small adjustments to some material values. Nothing I think anyone will pick up on.

youve been warned, we know how to handle such cases. simply cause kunos doesnt care doesnt mean we wont care either. isnt like you worked your ass off testing physics to match irl counterparts. all you say is basically i could do this and that, in the end nothing happens. seems like there is no value behind your word besides "i hope nothing will happen" since you asked so often what we can do. the usage is strictly forbidden for anyone not granted permission, such as chem got and we dont care if its private or not, in the end the outcome is the same, you take something youre not allowed to. you also totally seem to ignore every fact stated as soon as you read encrypted, its his damn decission to encrypt model work on a car, the port or scratch parts. better think twice what you will say in the future and dont blame yourself again for half knowledge. cause thats quite embarrasing what you demonstrated here xD

You have admitted that the Bentley is from ACC including the physics, so the modder is on far more shaky ground including URD who are part of it via signing off on the tyres.
How you can moralise when you rip from ACC is laughable.
You just talk dribble, URD can't even stop sites giving their stuff away for free, this literal thread has ACC cars and track rips being shared, this is GTplanet as in Gran Turismo, which has people sharing out GT rips again of tracks and cars.
And nothing, happens.

To be clear then, the chap with the Bentley he ripped from ACC including its physics, he said "The rest of the physics is ACC based....." so then locks away the ripped model and ripped physic's...
And gets his gang involved in calling out others who might dare to go into the data file of the ripped mod.....
Actual wow. Just beyond anything before and I've seen a lot on here...

Whole thread devoted to messing with cars and tracks and somehow everyone is quiet and I'm the bad one.....
Everyone looks away, stays silent lets bonny who rips ACC models get on his high horse.

If people ripping ACC tracks and cars is acceptable how is fair that you think you can warn me about anything?
That whole Bentley is stolen off 505 games IP, real IP not some made up IP by some kid in his basement.

Might send them an email tomorrow.

I never said that you shouldn't look into the data files xD
You just ignore my sentences..
I showed my reason for the encryption multiple times and you still say that I want to lock them away..
I JUST want that the car has 1 version with all bug fixes in it, not 5 fixed addon files for the car all over the internet
Is that so hard to understand?
Feel free to look into the files and use them if you want to xD

And why do you want to send 505 games an email?
I mean GTP ripped the mod too as well as many others.
The only reason why AC is still alive are Mod conversions out of other games.
Without that you can close this thread😅

 

[Josuracer]

Hello every one, I need help, I tryed different PPF, and Im seeing that some instrument panels of the cars looks a bit dark, when the sun light is directly on this, even when the car is in the shadows, is there some CSP or Assetto Corsa video setting to avoid this effect? thanks in advance

 

[RMi_wood]

this encryption cake is stale and moldy...

can we get back to delicious fresh baked goodies?

thank you

Meanwhile, those of us who don't have a damn idea about how to mod, encrypt or these things...

 

[RandomCarGuy17]

I can't even do a skin mod...

 

[Breathe]

I'm sorry to interrupt this (fair and old) debate on encryption but can you point me to the best visual version of Long Beach... I've taken a look on the Breathe list but I can't understand how does it work proper 😅. Also, he reported a version from a dude called "fn" which is maybe the most recent one but there isn't a download link...

Download links are present but as mentionned on my update posts :

PS : The icon for the track links disapeared but all the links are always presents. I am busy putting them back but it takes time

Without wanting to fuel this anymore, it was the other guy making threats to me about what URD will do to me for talking about possibly using their tyres.ini without asking them first.

All the while the car we are talking about is ripped from ACC.

In fairness you have been nothing be polite and courteous.
Lets draw a line.

I just hope you read the bit you wrote that i bolded, and see at least some irony in encryption though....

lost case aswell, same thing said, only concerning urd assets. i dont even care about where acc ports are from, its obvious and accepted at this place. remember all those mods that came from the gtp modding team, which are all from acc, mind typing a mail for all those aswell? or mind you typing a mail to ferrari for using masterkeys acc port in their trailer, or dinamic for using crashs acc port for a livery showcase on their official socials? no. should we head out to sms to tell them what youre doing? guess they wouldnt be as happy to hear that. and putting yourself into a position trying to be a victim all of a sudden, but for certain haveing all of the cars and ports you listed on your ssd just shows crazy inconsistancy in every word youre telling. judgeing people for using models of a game, but doing the same aint beeing dumb is it? got better to do then looking at this burning place again, a 992 is waiting for a better fate...

 

[nanenab]

90 percent of AC users won't go all detective like a modder can.
Same as when i went into Tommy 78's sierra RS500 mod recently to take some bits for my RS500 PCars conversion.....
Guess what...... Tommy's is PCars RS500.
OK so he did some stuff to it, but he claims scratch made I believe and charges money.

Tommy's mods are not worth any money anyway. That's just cements it even more. Hell, even for free they're not that great. Not to mention, that I always had a feeling that his mods are not 100% scratch made.

 

[CrisT86]

@CrisT86 i want to release the beta of Spa 83 by the end of the week. it is based off the 1988 version which in turn features your config etc.

Go ahead, no problem at all from my side, you're more than welcome to use my config. Hope it will be done well and it doesen't need my rework (i have too much tracks to update yet for another one in list )

You didn't followed the subject, do you ?
Lets wrap it up quickly :
Modding (in general) = barely legal, for many different reasons. Has become more and more tolerated/accepted/endorsed by game companies for the gain in popularity and longevity of their products. Still on the line, many lawsuits, rarely in the modders favor.
Converting = definitely illegal, on a copyright property side especially, would be still tolerated on a private side, a little less on a public side.
Selling = without a permit for the sell and a licence for the copyright, absolutely illegal, straight to jail, not even a need for a lawsuit in 99% of the countries in the world. And it's the same for Patreon paywares, except a little more countries are not "on the page" on that (I'm looking at you, Ireland)
Encrypting = definitely illegal if the content (and I mean, ALL of it) is not your property in the first place, because it trigger the concept of ownership and copyrighting. Not in the legal form, but on the moral form. That's what is so "hated" about encryption, it's the nature of it, the meaning of the action. Defendable in the face of a jury, maybe, but that's all.

So, coming here, aggressively threatening someone on his action and defending yourself on a "he got perms to use that stuff" (good for him) while talking about a encrypted conversion... I mean... I cannot be the only one laughting.

I apologize if you felt attacked, that wasn't the point. The point was : will you start to understand how grotesque this is becoming ?

Just stop, take it easy, apologize to Safi for the aggressivity and keep on going. We, as a whole, have the right to desagree with each other on the use of a tool and explaining why. It's a debate. And if after that you and Chem keep on encrypting your content, good for you, get on with it, you're free. That wont stop us to enjoy your creations, and thanking you for it.

Still missing the point, yet proving it at the same time.
You threaten me about URD, and say i take stuff that's not mine to take....whilst you take ACC models etc.

The difference with me is that i don't threaten people for daring to use a mod I've released.
That would be the definition of dumb....

It clear hypocrisy.

Added to that how do URD stop people using there tyres.ini for personal use?
Can Nike stop me buying a T Shirt and changing 'Just do it' to 'Just stop using slaves' for personal use?
No they can't.
Can Pepsi stop me buying a can of drink and mixing it with Sprite in a glass (its nice) for personal use?

No..... they can't.
If i buy a URD car i can do what the hell i like with it for my own use.
Its all very vey clear.
You ahve no moral high ground and what you've done is drag URD into it which i doubt on reflection they would be too happy with.
You are doing a good job of making them look stupid.
I for one will not judge URD on you as i don't think you represent their views, you are doing a Gerald Ratner right now...

I just wish a moderator would step in at some point and put an end to this pointless argument. I'm not even sure who's right and who's wrong. I just know it's getting old. Just just let it go and move on or take it to PM's. It's getting tough trying to find real content having to sift through all the BS.

It will be done semi-well and will probably need a rework

Main area will be all the shaders for the greenery but ill try and do as much as I can.

Like i said there was more to it as codemasters didn't need permission as they owned the license.
Not so much passing it off as there own as a multimillion pound developer has plenty of in house guys and have the resources to get models done.
I guess they saw a model and just took it as the modder had no official rights to complain.
It may of been an old fashioned FU.
Thing about encryption is that i guess the worst part of all of this is people being able to obtain pay mods, encryption doesn't stop that.
If i were a modder trying to sell stuff I'd be far more concerned about that than someone working out your encrypted data file is actually a URD GT3 car or the nice Sierra DTM car you scratch made is actually from PCars.

But again i fall into the bubble trap myself, i assume that because i see pay mods going for free on massive spread sheets, that everyone is getting them, but clearly they aren't.

I think you guys don't understand at all how "license" works

There is a difference though, releasing it as a Ferrari is the problem (with ferrari logo, skin, sponsors etc).
The 3Dmodel in itself is not a problem. You can create the 3D object that is as close as possible and make a random livery the car is yours alone. Granted you did that all by yourself and you did not have access to ferrari IP regarding how to model the car, just the pictures. Which is also why there is no problem for cars in real life to look exactly the same as another one granted no private information was used. For example the racing point 2020 which was an exact replica of the 2019 mercedes.

And let's take an example, porsche. EA had the porsche license, so there couldn't be any porsche on other games while EA had the license. What did they do? Use porsche model, rename them as ruf and they could release porsche cars on other game (just without the name and logo, which is replaced by ruf)
The ruf cars you have on assetto corsa by kunos is just unlicensed porsche that are 3D model of real porsche cars.


The modder has the right to complain about the 3D model being used commercially by codemaster. After all its an "original creation". The reason it didn't happen and that codemaster gave a small payement afterward is because the modder cannot afford starting a legal case against codemaster and buy a lawyer. And this is how some company abuse modders creation.

Specifically rockstars who sends cease and desist to modders with legal threat to shut down some modding activity although on a pure legal point they have no real stand. And on the case the modders goes through, they win. Just like the re3 teams that reverse engineered the GTA game (recreated the engine from scratch based on study of how the game work, can be the same as recreating a car based on photos) and released an exe that allows to play gta games granted you provide the game files yourself. Rockstar decided to take legal action against them, and lost the case.

It's getting tough trying to find real content having to sift through all the BS.

Well, please remember this is a mod discussion thread, not a content library. As per the advice given to people who disagree with encrypted mods, just ignore and keep scrolling.
