Assetto Corsa PC Mods General DiscussionPC

[X90]

The question is, which CSP version are you using? There was a version where the specular adjustment was no more working. And so you have no control over it. Those artifacts are caused by the specular shader and yes, this is directly dependent on the sun light.

BTW, what you mean with "power of the sun"?

Which PPfilter do you use? Did you already try with the "pure" standard PPfilter?

Latest Pure and CSP - changing PPFs and disabling all relevant CSP extensions does nothing (except for WeatherFX, obviously, which fixes the issue but kills all nu-lighting).

(yes, the PPFs I tried included PureHDR).

Power of the Sun I believe is a feature of the PPF I am using (C13 AEGIS) that boosts sunlight-based contrast.




I tried one more combo tonight (Guerilla GT4s at shin's Tokachi) and while the issue is present in this Tokachi mod, it's about 15% as noticeable. So it must indeed be some short of shader mismanagement.

I'd say it has something to do with the age of the track mod, as Piezello's tracks are from COVID and Toscana is from the stone age, but Frosty's Black Rock Motor Resort update released literally hours ago - and it might be the worst out of the three.

This problem is a textures problem. You define the speculars also with the alpha channel in the texture. You don't see it in the default and gamma shaders that much, but the base of the problem is still visible:

default / gamma:

Pure Gamma:

Pure LCS:

with boosted speculars:

without speculars

So the problem was always there, but you don't see it this much if weatherFX is off.

If you can't adjust the speculars, it is maybe because of the ppfilter/script or because of your installed CSP version.
I tried CSP 0.2.7 now and it works there, so it should also work with CSP 0.2.8p1

If not on your side, i would recommend to manually install CSP again, if you have a preview, delete the dwrite.dll before you extract the new files into the AC root folder.

@X90 re: those trees

you can turn off the specular (which should be off/0 for trees), try adding this to ext_config.ini

[SHADER_REPLACEMENT_...]
ACTIVE = 1
DESCRIPTION = Trees
MATERIALS = shader:ksTree ; or the material name
PROP_... = ksSpecular, 0.0

This is the fix - exactly what I was looking for. Not 100% perfect but pretty close to it. The shine has almost completely been removed from the trees, and the washed out streaks are gone. Looks good now. Cheers.

Bookmarking this fix for future reference.

Lol, I am not C13. Reworded my original post to clear that up.

Good evening.
Could anyone tell me how to "open" car files from the NR2003 game to try to adapt the Nascar "skins" (1964/1969/1970).

I was able to download some (already opened)...others come with the "complete carset" but I don't know the procedure to try to open them.

 

[X90]

Does anyone have any idea what's going on with this guy "JLCJB" and his mods?





I remember trying a few years ago to figure out the deal with his Discord - and ended up just giving up, as I couldn't post or download anything once I got in.

His Val de Vienne has shown up on Breathe's list again recently, but now I can't even get into his Discord at all. All links around the internet are dead - and his Patreon has zero pictures, video or any information outside of prices (lol).

What is his deal? His tracks seem to be in a Schrodinger's state of "are/are not commercially available" - and there's no information on his tracks that I can find anywhere. I can't test any of the tracks myself either (either legitimately or "illegitimately") - there's frankly no way I'm paying $10 up front for something with literally zero information and zero indication of quality outside of a grainy 30 FPS YouTube video.

I've heard (very, very seldomly, as pretty much no one either in this thread or elsewhere has useful information) that his scratch-made esoteric French tracks are pretty good. Obviously, that's interesting to me, but past that, I have nothing.


Anyone hip, let me know if this pursuit is worth furthering, or if I should just drop it again like I did in 2022. Cheers.

 

[Gabriele]

got any pictures? if you have send them over i cant find anything that is not already done.

Not me, but I can try to find some photos...

 

[maximeerkat]

Not me, but I can try to find some photos...

absolutely, try having a search in your native language it may bring up alot more pictures than i can find myself especially when it comes to Europe. I am currently doing a few more skins for this car even though i said i would not due to finding more pictures, so if you can find anything i will have a go

 

[xezez]

The fully updated mod had it's link updated in the original post. Which just directs you to the Google drive that Tomsim has put up on his discord.

I tried the link and it didn't work. It still doesn't... and says "Sorry, the file you have requested does not exist."

I'm not 100% sure if you're looking for the 3D models or the skins themselves... but for the skins you have to go to the NR2003 Opponent Manager and for each car you want the skins click the 'Export' button and it will save a *.tga file in the x:/Papyrus/NR2003/Exports folder.

For the 3D models, I can't remember because I haven't messed with the 3D models in almost 20 years but IIRC you need an editor like 3DSimEd.

Hi guys need a little help with pit crew visibility. They're not appearing in any mode. I looked at the track adjustment options. I have hide crew in track day mode unticked but they don't show up in trackdayys and also don't show up in any other modes either. Whether I have this option ticked or not, there's no difference except the team logo at pit lane also doesn't load if I have the option ON. In CM Showroom they appear fine.
Can someone figure out what is going on?Are

Could it be your Assetto Corsa video settings? World quality settings needs to be set on maximum.

there is your first problem, using c13 filter lol. dont waste your money on ppfs that are inferior to Pure and free ones around.

 

[X90]

It absolutely wasn't the problem - clearly you didn't read the discussion past this point. The very post you quoted literally says two sentences down that changing PPFs and disabling extensions did not fix the issue.



C13 is, in my opinion, the best filter out there - and is considerably closer to real life onboards in terms of color grading and clarity than PureHDR. With some tweaks, it is my filter of choice. But the core concept of post processing is, by nature, a subjective assessment. In the grand scheme of things, C13 is functionally near-identical to the stock Pure PPFs - yet I value that slight change in the final image output.


And the last time I paid into the Patreon for a new version was 1.89 - which was years ago at this point, so no idea what you're going on about with regards to wasting money.



I never understand people making such declarative statements over personal preferences that have nothing to do with objective quality whatsoever. It gives off a poor impression, sorry to say. If you don't like it, great - your input added absolutely nothing to this conversation.

I'm part of their community on discord, unfortunately i don't have time to engage with the community, so i don't have access to all their tracks. I would have love to be more active (like i try to be here) but i really don't have time (like i don't have here too).
I remember that i've helped a GTP member join their Discord few months ago (maybe a year). They are nice people btw.

Hello everyone,

I have a little request. I'm not good at making mods (and I don't know if it's the right place to talk about it), but I really dream of driving on the Springfield racetrack of the old Total Immersion Racing game (check the video). I don't konw if it could be possible to convert the TIR's one or to mod it. Thanks guys !

Springfield lap

 

[Quark67]

Go to the car skin folder and open skin.ini with notepad.
Make a backup of skin.ini (just in case).
Delete all the section named [CREW].
Go on track and check

so the crews suit is ok , but headset and sign are not (from Meccanico_Gadgets.png in the skin folder) ?

"Crew_HELMET_Color.dds" is for crew helmets and "Meccanico_Gadgets.png" for lollipops.
[CREW] section statements inside skin.ini often overrides the textures inside the skin folder.

That's way I've suggested to try deleting it
