Assetto Corsa PC Mods General DiscussionPC

[GN_Bullit]

This excuse is used all over game development nowadays and I cannot believe how often it is done so.

URD, VRC, RSS et al are not my mates that I send money to now and then to give 'em an ol' chummy boost. They are (unfortunately) very much businesses at this point. I am in no way, shape or form obligated to pay so I can feel warm and fuzzy inside. I don't care if the mesh was redone, or if the car has ostensibly new physics (I believe the M4 2.1.4 also uses CPHYS and COSMIC as well, so no idea what that argument is about either).

[EDIT - yes, it does - the straight wheel angle in CM previews are a giveaway. Perhaps this one has newer revisions for newer CSP preview versions.]

The M4 GT3 EVO looks, and sounds, and drives, identically to the original M4. If you put them side by side in a blind test, you couldn't pick out which is which. There are very minor cockpit tweaks, and 5th and 6th gear are longer. I can't even feel the minuscule aero changes. (I'm using the iRacing car as my reference).

This is, for all intents and purposes, the -exact- same car, from a customer's perspective. Which is all that matters. Even iRacing understood this very keenly, despite the car requiring a new scan - and they live at the summit of Mount Avarice. They didn't offer it for free out of benevolence - they knew there'd be backlash if they charged full price.

This argument, in various forms, has been made on and off in this very thread and elsewhere for years about the PX pack (yes, I'm bringing it up again), which I paid full price for and was abandoned in a totally unfinished state. "Oh, well, 7 dollars is nothing, at least I'm supporting URD's dreams!"


It's not about the 7 dollars, obviously I can pay that. It's the principle that matters. This is a transaction between two parties (for unlicensed third-party mods, no less). I will never, ever waive that analysis for as long as I live.


This "consoomer" sentiment, scaled upward and with pre-orders tacked on, is how we got Project Motor Racing. Shills unquestioningly paid 100 dollars on faith to support Ian Bell's pie-in-the-sky ambitions, with zero proof-of-concept and more red flags than Baku 2025 qualifying - and promptly won a shiny "Fell for it Again Award" and a turd of a product unlikely to recover. This principle, broadly, is why sim racing and gaming as a whole is in such a dismal state. "Won't you think of the devs" is no reason to shell out cash, no matter the amount, without a simple value analysis. I'm sorry.


There is near-zero value in this car to owners of the regular M4. It's probably why it released to all the fanfare of a wet fart.

I will be frank - I expected a limited-time heavy discount/"upgrade path". Didn't even get that. Which prompted a hearty chortle, and this long post.

So until it comes bundled with other inevitable full-priced "EVO" cars at a heavily discounted price, years from now (if ever), I'm a hard no. And I own more than 75% of the URD library.

Ok.

I'm on latest content manager and now it says i need to sign in to use the geo tag thing but wont let me sign into google, anyone else have this problem. And if its bust any other way of doing it as a work around?

 

[Masscot]

It's another bug in the latest version of CSP. With p140, there is no black square.

The black square is still there on the 'recommended' CSP 0.2.11 build, so I'm pretty sure it's an issue with the actual car itself.

 

[jac0]

More and more often have 1 or several mirrors that give rotated render in Real Mirrors
(the image is angled so the horizon is not straight anymore, sometimes 90 degrees , sometimes less)
I see it even on Kunos mods, like the Ferrari 458 GT2 for example , it now has the right mirror angled at about 20 to 30 degrees!?
The left mirror is still fine though (see screenshots below).
I know for a fact that the mirrors on the Ferrari 458 GT2 were both fine before, so it is not the car mod itself.
Can anyone confirm this, and is there a workaround or fix?

(ps : I am on csp 0.3.0-preview211)

Wow, that URD Bayro 4 GT3 EVO might just be my favourite modern GT3 car of all time. The physics will always come first of course, but URD really have upped their game with the modelling and texture work. The cockpit is a wonderful to habitat in VR, and rather makes the wet-paint shader work and flat textures in the RSS Macca 72 look quite amateurish by comparison.
Impressive stuff.

Pretty insane how much better mod's created by URD are then they were 7 to 8 years ago.

 

[icey]

These won't replace the excellent V8Corsa cars (despite what I wanted at first but I don't have the courage to remake every skins from 2013 to 2017) but they can serve as a 'better looking' alternative (wanted to say more modern but these models are from FM6 which came out in 2016 so really these are older lmao).

I'll just do the 2015 season and call it a day and hopefully release them when all the skins will be done. Will need help for lods although I ain't there yet - the mod is a 0.7 at best lol

(the Merc pictured isn't from TonyB but I did use a couple of textures from him or whichever mod he ported first, soz)

These aren't my words, but I would vouch for every single one.
The new URD Bayro is a masterpiece.
I doubted that anything better than the URD Coyote would appear in the short term, but these guys outdid themselves.
I was only surprised by the absence of the pro version of data.acd, with the fine-tuning of the suspension (both cars are double wishbone). I'm wondering what might have motivated this decision by URD.

 

[Nuttyboy812]

I was referring to the real car with your quoted line, in broad strokes.

Ah, gotcha.

The Vantage Evo (post 1.1 update), Mustang, and M4 Evo have all been very impressive, in comparison to the older URD GT3s and the RSS GT3s they're in a league of their own imo.

Yeah, you look at the PX pack and the 2013 EGT pack and it's sometimes hard to believe it's the same studio.

And so, after several versions of CSP, the grass has finally been repaired! 🥳
Thanks also to @Peter Boese who had a hand in it. 😉
So far, I'm really enjoying CSP v.0.3.0-preview212 id.3749. I'm seeing performance and visual improvements here and there—finally, I'd say.

 

[Gabriele]

Hi, are there any skins for the Porsche 908/2 K Flundel from "Legion"? I only found one, and I don't need it. Thanks.

 

[Pilot3331]

Hi.
QoL update for Aston GT4 Evo, It includes Animated wipers and additional skins from @demankz. Download.

 

[racinjoe013]

I'm having a blast with this just seeing what I can come up with. I'm like a kid getting a new toy. Figured out something to do with the right side display. I'm sure it's not realistic to the real life display, but I could care less. It's better than seeing a blank screen. If I can make it fit, I think I'm going to add lap number and position to the top left square and maybe tyre temps to the right. I can probably squeeze the bottom together a little more to make room for the stuff on top.

EDIT: Went ahead and added the extra stuff. I think this is good enough for now and I can move on to the macca to try and make it work as well.

That what I always wrote down several times here about URD in VR mode. When driving in VR it’s clearly to see the guy from RSS does not have any VR headset, and/or has a strategy for creating cars for monitors use only.
While the other similar studio VRC, is between URD-RSS.
Not saying RSS is bad, only not the best choice for VR only drivers.

Amazing work!

Just one thing... on my side the car has already engine on on start, so the Ignition On/Off dosn't work properly.

EDIT: I find the problem. You miss to add this

No problem in recommended version

On your system with your settings, not on mine. Some CSP tickbox somewhere may be causing the issue then.

Question: why, with CSP previews enabled, there's so much difference between the preview settings screen and the actual generated preview? There's so much details loss witch csp 🤔

 

[ItsHords]

Why does it have that high color value?
Try a normal color like 1,1,1,1

You'll have to take that up with Kunos, The Saleen and the 787b uses the same dashboard so we just copied their values. Regardless we tried 1,1,1,1 and it does the same thing.

 

[peppemuratore]

I'm having trouble creating multiple previews from CM. What could be causing this?

 

[Quark67]

I'm not sure if it will fix, but when in CM showroom, press "save preset" button, and then try to generate the previews with the saved preset.
If it didn't fix, then try enabling or disabling "Use CSP for final previews render" in "CM/settings/Custom Showroom/previews"

Hi, i checked looks like with csp enabled for previews it calculates light completely differently. what You see in previews parameters window is non csp version. i took few screens to demonstrate better.
First is is with it enabled.( some car details are removed because ext_config is kicking in). second is without csp preview option. preview parameters window is identical in both.
