Assetto Corsa PC Mods General DiscussionPC

[Ararelyracer]

To all friendly experts, may I ask what's wrong with my setting for screenshot with CSP? Or is that my AMD driver problem?

Thank you!

I have followed you instructions to the tee but see nothing in the available showroom/presets ....any ideas?View attachment 1462277

You're looking for it in the wrong section, Peter.

Although tav_moderna is a complete showroom, in this case it's not being used as a showroom. It's being used as a backdrop for a custom preview preset. It's placed in content/showroom so that the preset knows where to reference it. I'm not great with showrooms, they're a bit black magic, but I believe a showroom-showroom needs to be somewhere else to show up as a showroom.

Anyhoo that's not what we're on about here. We want to use it as a preview, so as @SVRS says, use the drop arrow menu alongside "Update previews" when you're viewing the car off the list in CM, and select "Options". That will open the preview window and the parameters panel for it. At the bottom of that panel select the cmpreset which uses the showroom, like "03 TAV Juni 2025 GeForce06 Far EDITED_3" which @samdale12 kindly provided.

Warning. The preview window looks like the blue screen of death. Don't worry, just generate a single preview, see where the cars sits and fits in the generated image (hit refresh in CM) and then (I use) Look at: X for left/right, Look at: Y for up/down, and View Angle: for zoom in/out. **make very small changes It's quite easy to get the car right off the window. Rinse and repeat till you're happy and then do all the previews for the car.

PS. Anyone who has a better workflow for this, I'm all ears.

Only thing less "fun" is doing all 5000 car collection with it!!

It's much more easy and less time consuming.

1) Navigate to 'Content', then 'Cars'.
2) Click on any car on the left.
3) Click the tiny arrow next to 'Update Previews' at the bottom of the window, then click 'Options'.
4) Select the new preview you'd like to use at the bottom of the preference window, then click the 'Update Selected Skin (without confirmation)' button (box with a + in it).
This tells Content Manager that this is the default skin to use.
5) Quit the preview, and select all cars in the left list (click one, then CTRL+A).
6) Click the drop-down at the bottom and select Look > Update Previews.
7) Click 'Update XXX cars' when you're ready. This may take a few hours depending on the number of cars.


Or
1) Go to 'Content', then 'tools'.
2) Click 'Launch' button of the 'Update previews' tool
3) Click 'Autoselect' button at the bottom
4) Click 'Update Previews' at the bottom of the window

Good afternoon (at least here, that is) all,
Short question; Say I have a bunch of identical cars with identical cockpits (although cars (BMW M4) are executed/tuned differently, i.e., S1, S2, Track, Competition, etc.). Now I set up my FOV at one but can I copy this one setting to all others without manually doing this? Simply copying an "ini" file? Or can this be accomplished within CM perhaps? Would be nice to have the exact same cockpit FOV for all those M4's. Thanks for any reply, much appreciated my end.

Does anybody know what sticker this is? i have been searching for ages but i cannot find it.

even though it seems tied to RTL i cannot find this sticker on any other car from that era, it seemed to be only on this car

Hi, is there anyone who can make the "FIA GT" skins for the gorgeous Lamborghini Diablo GTR? I tried to make this one, from 2002 (because I'd like to use it) for the "F302" mod, but I can't. 🥲
Beautiful car but 0 skins

Been looking at it for a while (longer than I should have, lolz) and I'm almost certain that the "Video" bit is a sticker over a rectangular section of the racing number box.
Like "No, not advertising THAT, what can we stick over it?"
I can't make head nor tail of the box footer, but I can have a go at the "Video" red on white part?

Ha! Ninja'd and corrected by @CrisT86

I had the same issue. Try this adjusted preset, plus drop the models.ini in the TAV_moderna showroom folder.

View attachment 1462151

even with this angle i have the bug that the kunos r8 lms ultra doesnt show all body parts when the skin is using the chemflummi addon, does someone maybe know how to fix it? i swaped the ext config from another skin over and then did the preview for that skin and after that restored the original ext config with chemflummi addon but its so much labour xD

Be a little careful with doing a blanket update, as some encrypted cars still can't use CSP previews and will still display blue crystals, eg the Ferrari 599 GTB Fiorano by LaMorte.
I thought CSP previews were supposed to have solved this problem, but apparently not in all cases.
Edit: see below, a second pass might be necessary.

 

[MasterFocus]

A strange new issue, I have the latest Pure hotfix (2.60) and the latest CSP preview... and for some reason the track is dry, it's not raining but the cars are spraying rain mist. I'm not sure what causes it, if I clear the weather schedule and load a static weather it doesn't seem to happen, but as soon as I load a weather plan or start adding other weathers to the plan it happens. It doesn't seem tied to humidity, mist or any other setting so I'm not sure how to avoid/fix it.

Any ideas?

Not to mention that sometimes previews are ufked and you need to restart the process (car moving into a corner, disc brake glowing red)

Was just about to post that the first time I applied a CSP preview to the Ferrari 599 GTB Fiorano by LaMorte, it was all blue crystals and hanging off the side of the screen. I just hit the 'update previews' button a second time and the car is now centred and rendered properly.


It seems CM sometimes struggles to resolve the code the first time, but gets there in the end.
If anyone gets janky results with certain cars, just try another pass.

Edit: HA! One skin at a time is OK but I tried updating all of the Fiorano skins in one go and got this:





So yeah... something isn't quite right somewhere.

Edit: restarting CM seems to fix things... until they bork themselves again. Rinse/repeat.

Thank you!

Sorry can anyone plz shed me some light on this? Thx

 

[Rivanov]

Anyone else get horrendous performance with 20 cars on track? Never had this before. Maybe due to latest CSP version?
When I'm alone on track no issues at all..

 

[NivekBS]

are you sure didn’t fire up the wrong AC game accidentally 🤭😉

I also noticed a drop in performance with large grids of AI cars with recent CSP builds. Maybe the newer AI features are overloading the CPU? Or memory leaks?Very annoying, whatever the cause.

Glad it's not only me than.. Thought I was going crazy.
Do you perhaps know which features are new regarding AI? Maybe we can turn them off and see if it helps.

just try one at a time and it always works....If you do everything together it doesn't work

TCL Hillman Imp CSP Wipers

Been playing about with CSP new wiper animation tool, it's actually quite intuitive once I got the idea of what it requires to set it up which at first was a bit of trial and error. It's quite exciting to use and I aim to animate far more wipers this way to contribute somehow.

I think all that is required to share is the updated Extension config from within the car folder as it doesn't actually modify the model files themselves which is how it can work with encrypted cars as well and as usual you may need to create an extension folder to place the file if it doesn't exist already in the car folder. Forgive me if this doesn't work sharing it this way but I think this is all it modifies and then CSP does all the rest. 🙂

Hi Paintbox, Was wondering if you could help me add wipers to the Hilman please. Is it just a case of putting your file in the vehicle folder somewhere.
Many thanks
