Assetto Corsa PC Mods General DiscussionPC

Hey all,

A league I'm in is running an MX-5 Cup season this fall, and are attempting to run Macau Guia. I just have a question or two for those who are perhaps more plugged into Reboot Team and the version history of this track, so we can get squared away which version is the best/most recent.

So the first proper version of the Guia Circuit is titled "macau" under Breathe's list - last version update in 2018. This version was made by Jim Lloyd, who from my understanding is/was part of Reboot Team, and also was a large part of the "rt_macau" that was released two years later. From my understanding, this earlier version was the R3E laser scan rip - and it has quite a nice retexture by ClimaxF1 on RD.

Now, from what I understand, though, despite "rt_macau" having Jim Lloyd heavily involved as well, "rt_macau" is an entirely different track to "macau". Is that right? Is there some deviation of the track mesh from the R3E rip of the previous version, or is the track itself the exact same?

Thanks to anyone who may know the history of this - we plan on using vanilla "rt_macau" v.1.01 at the moment.

Cheers.

While i was writing the post, i was thinking about who will be the first one bringing this joke.😆

Hi,

What about Gillet and Marcos updates ?

Thanks

Yes, I wanted to bring the update with the initial Ultima release, but the Ultima is taking longer than expected. So I think I'll release the update for Mantis, Vertigo and Z4 before Ultima.

Its actually not a fix. It depends on the tracks, what you need to set there. The main thinking behind the landscape shader is, to expand the track geometry to the horizon line. But if the track has many variations in height, the landscape shader would be visible within the track. But there are also tracks, with a benefit from this option, like mugello. Mugello has flat mountain billboards, which are floating in the empty space around the track. Activating the option will give them a flat ground and so the sit on the landscape now:

on other tracks, this option would overdraw inside track geometry:

The goal with the landscape shader is, to adjust its height to the height of the outer track geometry. So you don't see that the track is floating, if you move over the track.

You are right the Negative does not fully fix the issue as it seems to interfere somehow with treewalls etc.

However, I hope this leads you to find the bug as to why I only get a PURE landscape to render only if I check the Negative box

Superb work!

So quick question for those with more knowledge than me!
How can I make the white sidelines less jagged on a track, I've tried subdividing the visible surface but no good, the track I'm messing with doesn't have a spline, I seen on lilski tutorial that increasing the resolution of the spline makes things smooth but how to do it when there is no spline.
Thanks to anyone that may help or even take the time to read this!

P.S. this image is not mine, it was posted by dms on page 4045 of this thread but it works to show what I'm asking about.

UPDATE Modern Day Racing Series

First of all, thank you very much for the gigantic work you have done with this championship series. I spent almost the entire weekend downloading and installing the mods I was missing so I could use them (I couldn't believe the amount of missing content I had, but I don't regret anything XD). And now, the question. The TRR discord that contains the ARX 06 for the IMSA championship does not have the download link at the moment. Is there a car with similar characteristics that I can use as a substitute for that one? I ask this because I don't want to ruin the championship by adding a car that is either far superior or far inferior to TRR's. Again, thank you very much for this.

a quick interior skin for this car, the outside is bad the inside is a bit worse so i have had to make do with what i can here, its far from ideal or perfect but its a bit better than just a plain interior, just upscaling the og textures helped although the "generic.dds" only upsclaes to a certain point i cannnot push it beyond that. No pics from real life or anything just done of my head.

Today I'm out of work so I decided to learn something about CSP to improve a track.
This is what I manage to do with Waterford Hills Road Racing

Grass textures are taken from fln_long beach.
You have to copy the files inside "tracks\fln_long beach\skins\cm_skins\red curbs" (with the exeption of curb_new2.dds) to the "waterford_hills\extension" folder.

I used an existing ext_config.ini which I used as a template, but I don't remember the autor ... I'm quite sure he was Rainmaker

Before and after

oh would people prefer that if i did the file structure so you can just drag and drop into CM? i stayed away from that as i have had issues with CM installing skins that's why i "advise" people to do it manually but i can keep that in mind for the next release and do a proper file structure, the ones i had issues with probably didn't have the correct file structure which is why i had issues . Thanks for the feedback

Even if not using CM it would just make life easier. Im always renaming the download so I know that its for the Toledo.

Bugs me when I go on a skin downloading binge on RD and dont get around to installing them straight away and the downloads are just named after the car number and team name or sponsor. Have to go back through my history to figure out which car they belong to.

i did not even think of the "what if i download it and not install it straight away" angle. i will make sure all my future releases are named properly with the right file structure e.t.c. I understand why it can be confusing without it. Thanks for the feedback

Skipping "10 years", now the "Champions Career Mode" is in the year 1960.
The first race of this long season (sportscar races, f1, formula Indy, Nascar...), is the 1000km of Buenos Aires.
This time I chose the Brazilian duo, Celso Lara Barberis / Christian "Bino" Heins with the Maserati 300s.

After the race, I noticed that the performance of the "AI" Porsche 718 was a little lower, I'm going to try to adjust it better (because when testing both the Ferrari 250TR, Maserati, Maserati Birdcage and Porsche 718, I achieved similar times).

the behavior of rear-view mirrors, in the "real mirror" mode.
There are three cars, let's call them "A(mod)", "B(kunos)" and "C(mod)", they are all open top. in dry weather with the mirrors of all three cars everything is fine. but if you turn on the rain, then the mirrors of car "A" become black, those of car "B" become gray blurred, and everything

Sorry, no answer, but I have the 'blurry' version in the Kunos Ferrari 330 P4, which is frustrating because it's probably my no1 car for the game! So if anyone knows I'm curious too.

Have you guys found a solution, I have the same issue with the Ferrari 330 P4.
