Assetto Corsa PC Mods General DiscussionPC

[GT3Masters97]

The work continues, in fits and starts but continues. I brought it to AC to see what effect it has in game and the result is sufficient. It will still take a lot of work.

I wish he would note what changed in v1.07 , it can't all be from 1.0.7 ... I'm sure the animated antenna was already in 1.0.6 !

And what's the v1.3 ? I guess it's an older version since his site always shows the car sorted on update date... quite confusing though...

 

[Masscot]

I wonder if we'll start getting patreons for ffb scripts next, ppfilter-style.

We already have Patreons for screenshots, so the moral abyss in which some of these shysters dwell should surprise not one of us.

Nismo Fairlady Z S-Tune GT '04, added via Skins and EXT_Config.ini

sorry for the bump but anyone has a clue as to why preview generation is messed up in a sense that the helmets, but also other textures like car numbers (!) are being reused from first skin on all next skins ?

eg. F302's 2013 Zytek Z11SN Nissan , when I generate new previews for all skins, they all have number 42 (from the first skin

...

Is there a (new) setting responsible for this? Or it's a bug I imagine...

 

[DavidDGA]

Do you know where I can find a blank GTR style plate like this one?
It would be really sweet for a fictional skin...

You mean the numberplate? Here is the .psd file I used for the 2005 FIA GT skinpack, both GT1 and GT2. I think it also left some layers for the 97/98 FIA GT numberplate too

The telegram room has a history for the previous versions. Seems the only change is the the AI upscale of the skins.

The other one "V1.3" looks to have differences in regards to larger wheels, different front bumper, and additional changes on the interior. Comparing the wire frames in showroom they are definitely different models. Maybe both models were converted from different games?

Another sweet day, another Content Manager autoupdate with autoupdates disabled.

This may have been mentioned elsewhere, but is there anyway of turning them off? I've gone and downloaded all the updated VRC content via their new portal downloady thingy, yet the message to update their content still persists in content manager. I kinda wish it would piss off now.

 

[Perico Lospa]

It's @Perico Lospa 's fault, I'm sure. 😂

it's a bug with the new kn5 loader, if you deactivate it it solves the problem in game but not for preview generation.

You may try the following: go to skins, mark them all as read and then choose update previews.

 

[Pekkahe]

I made a backup skins folder to try and make it easier to reinstall skins when a mod updates. However the last time I tried to reinstall one, that folder was empty. But when I downloaded the skin originally I just copied it to the backup skins folder. If the backup file was blank could it be because I didn't rename it and when the original installed it pulled the info from both locations?

Have you reinstalled skins before? Maybe you then moved the skins from the folder insted of copying them.

Hi Forum! After 2023 F1 crew, I want to follow my inspiration to create 2025 F1 crew.
Probably it will take a long time but I try to do my best!

Think it would be more of interesting if these wallflower clones would be moving and show some activities. Simdream seems to have these animated pit guys. Some can be free for downloading btw. And here I have a question about, reading the negative articles about Simdream, are these free downloads to be trusted or is there a negative catch or other hidden activity as there is nothing like a free meal.

A little off topic;
Simdream has included Tracks I have released (such as 1998 Tracks) in their paid content.
Of course, there is no permission from me to Simdream.
Please do not purchase anything from Simdream.

I was only talking about the free ones not the pay-ware, I hoped the discussion would be concentrating on this. That why I posted this:

But if it is true of stealing and the original creator of the animated pit crew is known by name, it’s also ok for me.
I know GTmembers @Cozy61, @enkay74 and @Hoksu are mentioned on the Simdream web site, maybe they have the answer for me, on downloading the free ones or the original animation source. Do not know if these guys are members of the SD team, but below you can find these 3 names, at Simdream:

We meant the CM autoupdates/dataupdates, before.
As for the mods autoupdates I have no clue, I too have the GT4 Avezzano and VRC's Willow Springs that are up to date and still they ask for updates.

So you're OK if SD steal stuff from people as long as they're credited ? Lol. Lmao even. I might even go the roflcopter route.

No, if this been stolen then I will go to the original creator, but that is only possible if knowning the original sources.

Another sweet day, another Content Manager autoupdate with autoupdates disabled.

It's not exactly an Content Manager update, but a data version update to 211. Not sure what the difference between the two is, but I would imagine less significant changes to the app itself...

Happy to help!


check for updates & update to non-tested values are both disabled on my install

Its enough to reset any setup you had with car (paint)

The backup software I use allows me to keep track of all changes in the Steam AC folder, '%USERPROFILE%\Assetto Corsa' and '%APPDATA%\Local\AcTools Content Manager'.

The Data Version update to 211 has changed the following files on my install:

All of these files are found in '%APPDATA%\Local\AcTools Content Manager\Data'.
Nothing else seems to have changed.

Hopefully this solves the uncertainty, ambiguity & doubt around the Data Version updates in Content Manager.


@MasterFocus
I do not use Custom Paint stuff, but I assume the settings/setups are saved in the Paint Shop folder, are you sure you are using the Data (User) folder and not the main Data folder?

Its NOT free, it only come with the TERRIBLE formula one for "only" 10$

What I mean was, the paint you selected for any given car is reseted to the "first" one

That information is saved in the 'Values.data' file in '%APPDATA%\Local\AcTools Content Manager'.
In 'CM > Settings > Content Manager > General' there is a 'Clean Up' button. I have not had CM automatically clean these values. In particular, not after the data version update this week.

Have you reinstalled skins before? Maybe you then moved the skins from the folder insted of copying them.

What I did was, download the file, right click and select "copy", then go to the backup skins folder and put that copy there. Then install the main skin file on the car. Later when the mod updated and I deleted it's file to install the update, I went to the backup skins folder to reinstall the skin but the file was empty.

But this time I just went into the car's skin file and manually pulled them out, created VRC Alpine for example, put them in there, installed the update, then put the skins back in the car folder. That might be the better way to do it.

Hi Peter,

I have what sounds the same effect (in VR) of it suddenly darkening / brightening but as I usually drive in broken clouds I thought it was you trying to implement the sun breaking through the clouds but maybe I'm wrong. I do find the effect a bit jarring as it happens so suddenly rather than transitioning over a second. Is this a Pure effect or am I having a bug?

@Peter Boese while you're here, at the start of daytime sessions, as soon as you appear on the track is it normal for the sky to start light, then darken significantly for a second like there's a solar eclipse, then lighten again with the correct preset weather? The whole skybox changes too.
This seems to have started with the past few Pure builds, and kind of breaks any immersion we're trying to create.
It seems to be just that the correct weather and TOD are both a bit laggy loading?
Gamma, PureVR ppf, 2D clouds.

Someone has still this problem after the latest Pure and CSP updates? Because I still notice this lighting changes during sessions.

Seems fixed for me, but I do think cloud cover is far too dark.

seems to be somewhat of a workaround, but it comes with it's own bugs like that:

hopefully it gets fixed quickly so we can again use the "Update previews" button...
