Assetto Corsa PC Mods General DiscussionPC

... As for the flags, I haven't touched them, 🙄 so could it be a problem with the original track? Are you using the ClimaxF1 skin?...

Please don't take into account the colors, brightness, etc. These are quick photos, with hardly any adjustments to the settings in the photo app...

That's the "original" (Aviano by Patrickpat, V1.0, with "16k Terrain" and "Aviano re-texture" skins enabled). The flags are in place and constantly waving.

... and that is the same, but with your extension...

As I said, the asphalt and the vegetation (apart from the crowded wildflowers in first view) looks in general much better and more natural with the addition of the extension. However, the flags appear out of place, although by deleting this part of the code...

[WIND]
DYNAMIC_FLAGS = AUTO
IGNORE=marshals

... the flags return to their correct location.

I would dare to suggest that removing the code on the flags and matching the original grass texture (which is not bad at all and blends well with the edge of the asphalt) so that the tones match the more distant vegetation (which already looks incredible with the extension) would be enough... or at least, to my taste. Some times, less is more.

Thanks again!

Can someone explain what causes this with the Montreal track and how to fix it?

If not already being solved: What version #13XX number from the @Breathe list?

Some say to never use absolute black (0,0,0) as a color, anyway grazie mille.

Grazie,troppo gentile. 🤗
Why shouldn't we use pure black?

Which version of the car is this, i have 2 and the skin doesnt work on either?

One of my all-time favorite racetracks, "Horsma Raceway," with its smooth flow and great curves, deserves some polish. It's truly great to drive and never boring in any of its layouts.

I just played it today for the first time because I love a track that flows well and with your description I put some 90's BTCCs on it and had an absolute blast. I agree that this track deserves some love and updates. I know there are endless tracks out there that I don't know about that I'd love to put the BTCCs on. I just need to find them

Hi guys, I'm working on a skin for the VRC Accord but I'm having trouble figuring out two decals, can someone with great eyes/knowledge help me on this one? Thanks.

 

[MasterFocus]

It makes me really sad that the only nicely modeled F1 car made in collaboration with an official manufacturer had to be the Alpine A525, or as most know it that blue and pink tractor at the back of the field every race.

Maybe they wanted to do the Aston Martin, but didnt any working car at that moment?

 

[CrisT86]

With the hot summer i was away from AC. What's changed in the GrassFX settings lately? With an old CSP preview i use for development the grass looks like this

With the new one the 0.2.11 which is available for free is like this (under the sun is even worse, it looks like contamined by plutonium).

There's a way to fix that colour without having to manually fix ALL THE 800 config i did over the year?

[SHADER_REPLACEMENT_...]
ACTIVE= 1
DESCRIPTION = blabla
MESHES= some_mesh
MATERIALS= some_material
RESOURCE_0= txDiffuse
RESOURCE_FILE_0= the_new_texture.dds

place the new texture in track_name/extension

Yes! Yes! Yes! This is exactly what I was looking for!! 🤩 Thank you so much RMi

Sounds like you want to use the Shader Replacement feature in ext_config. Instructions here. Slightly more than one line (but not much), and you place the texture in the same extension folder as the ext_config.ini

Thank you so much too Samdale, there are so many things to learn.. 😵

Instead of using the terrain or spectator seat mesh directly, you should create a separate mesh for the spectators.
Open Track in Blender (or any 3D software),
and use the Knife tool, Loop Cut, and Vertex Slide to edit and separate the mesh.
Make sure that it does not overlap with walls or other objects.
View attachment 1467688
In the case of spectator seats, reduce the mesh slightly so that the spectators do not protrude from their seats.
View attachment 1467691

Simply reducing the ELEMENTS value will not solve the problem fundamentally.

Thanks Shi, much appreciated from a master like you, I know little about Blender but I know it's quite difficult, I'll try when I have time to delve deeper and make attempts.

It's a shame that RSS have such a hard-on for these modern formula cars when there are so many older analogue touring cars to pull from, cars that are always far more involving and rewarding to drive than these soulless digital rocketships.

if people would actually support those releases, more would come. all of their vintage stuff is their lowest sellers.

Some folks say there's no perfect all-light absorbing black in nature and that's 0,0,0.
I must have read it somewhere million years ago but I saw few skinners mentioning this on OT in the past years.
My idea is that the body materials might have a role in this too, but I really want to be slapped hard in the face by someone with more knowledge.

I don't find the previous message to replay about thee issues with car previews not updating after pressing "Update previews".
You have the option enabled

and the following to preview.jpg

You have 3 options to fix the issue:
- disable the first option (red arrow)
or
- select in file name: preview.png
or
- goto the skin folder and delete the preview.png file

Quick question:

Does the 964 RSR project is really dead? I'm expecting for months any news about it but nothing....

It a shame, since I was really looking forward to it, especially regarding the mid-IMSA specs that would come into the bundle.

Yes and no really. The car and over 100 race event specific skins are ready. Sadly we do not find the needed time to give the car physics the needed finishing touches. It is a real shame but I understand, that we all have our everyday life which can leave us next to zero space for such a project. For me it is certainly the case at the moment and I know that the other team members have very little time as well. I personally keep my fingers crossed, that we can finish the car.

Only ever seen it in rFactor 1 many moons ago. Nice track though. Its possibly in rF2 but not sure.

@Swisss
Agreed! Horsma is a fantastic track, it has superb AI for offline racing with TCR type cars, big fields are handled well and the different layouts add more unique experiences. Big fun.

Okay, I think I've reached a good compromise. The flags are now in place. I redid the entire grass surface, changing the texture, and increased the night lighting on the straight without affecting the FPS. Try it out and let me know if it can be a final version.
P.S. I left a few flowers, but they're not many. Please don't step on them, thanks.😜

Yes, i converted it from rf1 as i was doing that event there. Its the basic track layout which is what i wanted, but no bells and whistles as i just wanted to blast around it and forget about it... so i can stick it on sharemods tonight and let you have it for sure.

Great, thanks!
Sounds like a full-fat bells and whistles conversion from rF might be worthwhile. Maybe @shi or @RMi_wood might be tempted?
Surprised it hasn't made its way to AC before now. I thought pretty much every track already had.

My limited experience leads me to believe that the concept "final version" does not exist in Assetto Corsa...

I'll try it as soon as I can, of course, although lately I've been having a few days where real life has been getting between me and my beloved cockpit.

Crikey, I'd totally forgotten about that track skin for Horsma. Think it was one of my firsts. Daren't even look at it in case it gives me nightmares.

Yep the rf1, one, isn't great, but IMO better than that. Here it is for masscot and anyone else, it was like one of my first 10 track conversions and once i'd driven it a bit i never touched it again after i did the real life event there... so understand its not great looking.

Another Horsma fan here, love every single bump and an update would make me clap my hands.
