Assetto Corsa PC Mods General DiscussionPC

[DaGooj]

I was just wondering if anyone who uses Assetto in VR can confirm something. I was using custom shader patch v0.2.12-preview1 because I found it pretty stable, but I wanted to try Fenryr's Losail 2.0, and it doesn't work on that version.

So, I updated to csp v0.3.0-preview212. I usually use Pure Gamma weather without any ppfilter, but I found the headset was black when I tried playing. Turns out it won't display in the headset using Gamma unless I use a ppfilter.

I was just wondering if this was just my setup (HP Reverb G2 with the Oasis driver) or does this happen for other people?
To be clear, csp v0.3.0-preview212 doesn't display in the headset using Pure Gamma without using a ppfilter.

Mod has been updated to beta 0.90. Use the link in the quote to get the updated version. It would be best to delete the old folder first. If you made any changes on your own, be sure to make backups.

I completely re-worked the track setup. By default, if you use no track skins, the track will look like a decent representation of how it looks in 2025 based on race footage. To roll back to how the Kunos track looks (and to use skins you already have for the Kunos Monza track), simply enable one of the older track skins for 2010 or 2013. This will swap out the new objects with the old ones. The 2023 skin will look like the base track but with one bridge structure still enabled and the s/f line banner changed. I'm not even sure the 2025 skin is needed anymore, but I couldn't remember so I left it in there just in case.

I'd be interested to hear of any issues you have using the 2010 or 2013 track skin. I think I hid and enabled everything correctly, but I could have overlooked something.

Known issues:

-- The new 2025 walls have very wavy texture mapping. It may or may not be my fault from re-mapping the textures on the mesh. They are not noticeable at speed but hopefully I can fix them some day.
-- There's a weird burnt out grass line where the old wall used to be in front of the big grandstand at Variante del Rettifilo. You don't see it when driving, but it may look odd watching a replay. I'll get to it eventually.

Fantastic work, mate, congratulations and thank you for sharing.
However, I'm not finding the skin for the 2025 layout (after the resurface of 2024 and the changes, especially in ascari, as shown in the pics below). Sorry if I'm doing something stupid.

Quick word of warning for anyone interested in the "Assetto Corsa Evoluzione" mod.

I paid in to see how the project was progressing about a week ago - and promptly cancelled the "subscription", as I do for all Patreon purchases like Pure, CSP, Marco17, formerly Nuzzi (I am a "no subscriptions if at all possible" person). I exclusively make one time purchases for mod content.

Upon cancellation, it is explicitly stated that I will be returned to the "Free" tier - but I have all Premium access and permissions until the end of the month (sometime in mid-February).

I am able to download the files with no problem. However, there is a ludicrous Patreon DRM check on every launch (!) that will physically boot you out of the game and open a browser page to complete the check. Worse, it fails me - as I cancelled my subscription the very minute I made the purchase.

Apparently, the "Premium member benefits" do not even extend to the DRM check - so I have paid $3.50 for a digital paperweight.

I would have been infinitely better off finding a pirated copy. Yes, it was just $3.50, but again, it's the absolutely ludicrous principle of it all. A beautiful microcosm of the ****hole "future" we currently live in. The irony of DRM checks on a project that only organizes content and actually makes none of it (cars, tracks, AI behavior, racing regulations, etc) is also not lost on me. The nerve.


It doesn't really matter anyway, I've heard mixed reviews from users and let's be honest - the AI in AC isn't yet up to snuff for any of these career mods.

Hopefully, with some of the AI apps starting to leak out, that changes. And if we see progress on that front in the next year or two, maybe a "loose" copy of this mod might be worth a download.

Have you canceled the subscription before launching ACE? Maybe that's the reason why you can't use your copy. Afaik the mod verifies your subscription the first time you launch it. When you cancel your sub early, you can still use your advantages but your account will be immediately marked as "free user" for that creator. So, when you launch ACE EVO, you can't play because the mod doesn't see any active sub for Alex Mail. Unfortunately Patreon is a bit of a mess when it comes to these situations 😪

As I sad in my description, "a decent representation of how it looks in 2025". I was never going for an exact duplication. For that you will have to wait for someone with more skill than I have.

I risk a potential "sheet"storm with a question to the Kunos Lotus 98T.
View attachment 1507921
I love this car by its look and the feeling in the corners, but what I dont like is the massive turbo lag, despite I had so many races in that car.
My question: Has anyone ever considered to remove the turbo and adapt the engine to not lose the performance of the car?
I really hope you dont hate me for that question.

If you want a quick and dirty way, you can try to play around with this app https://www.overtake.gg/downloads/assetto-corsa-car-tuner.13946/ (app can be a little buggy sometimes)

It'll create a new folder with the car data and you can play around with turbo numbers (not sure if you can remove it?) but you can also do a full engine swap to some other car if you wanted.

I know there are more thorough ways to play around with car data, but this usually works well enough for my purposes.

 

[EdgeGMR]

does anyone know which mod has this font "honda_nsx_gt3_race" or have it in your ac folder?
I'm missing this font but don't know which mod use it

Yes, I purchased, and cancelled immediately afterwards. As I always do.

It's stupid and shortsighted at best that it verifies a "subscription" and not whether I've paid or not - and duplicitous and heavy-handed at worst.

I simply wanted a refund - and was denied by Patreon and the creator did not respond/ghosted in over 2 weeks.

Money down the drain, but lesson learned.

For those that downloaded version 0.90 already, replace the vao patches with the two attached files. It fixes a shadowing issue on the front straight grails when using the 2010 or 2013 layouts\track skins. The full track mod already includes these for new users.

[MrLonguinha17]

To celebrate the "Monte Carlo Rally"...we're adapting/adjusting new cars for new seasons.

For now, for 1973 (Alpine-Renault Team).
Since it's difficult to find (helmet color scheme and driver suit)...we're adapting (as best as possible) with what little we can get.

In this case, I adapted the Alpine version (Tarmac) for (Gravel/Ice/Snow), with a (higher suspension and narrower tires), but it needs to be tested (I didn't modify much).

Then move on to the Fiat 124 Abarth, Lancia Fulvia, Renault 12 Gordini, Datsun 240z, Ford Escort 1600, Simca Rally 2, Opel Ascona A and Opel Commodore GS.E (which I decided to test an adaptation of)...
As soon as I can test it...I'll share it with anyone interested...

Did you try CSP 0.3.212 with its own "default" weatherFX style and using the gamma shaders?

Is it the same then?

On my side it crashes if i try to run it without PP in Pure AND default weatherFX. I'm trying to find the setting, but it could be it does not work anymore in the newest CSP versions.

EDIT!

I got it running.

Try this:
Goto Documents/Assetto Corsa/cfg and rename the "extension" folder to something different.
(this will reset your CSP settings to default)

Restart CM

One time launch with AC+VR wtih PP active in AC video settings.

Then switch it off. On my side it works then...

Hi! First of all before I get attacked for asking for stuff - I have been a member already many years ago but totally lost my PW etc. and so decided to register new.

My two humble requests / questions:

Has anyone made realistic helmets for the overall so awesome DRM mod yet!? If not - that would be my suggestion.

Second question is for the Alfa Romeo 158 that literally abuses the sound of the so grand Lotus 98t and so I wanna ask if there has a soundmod been made for the Alfa yet or if not which sound you guys would recommend for me to try instead of that so absurd wrong sound!? Others I have tried so far are not working correctly i.e. sound breaks up when lifting and or shifting.

OK that's about it for today. Again cos I might get negative comments I am not a rookie here and most of all not demanding anything, just asking and suggesting. Thank you also to all great people on this legend place.👍

Welcome back

100% agree about the Alfetta. I use the Kunos Alfa 33 Stradale SFX, and I add these lines to the ext_config.ini
Disclaimer, I'm old and like it loud

[AUDIO_VOLUME]
ENGINE_EXT = 3.0
ENGINE_INT = 3.0
GEAR_EXT = 1.3
GEAR_INT = 1.5
BODYWORK = 0.3
WIND = 2.5
DOWN_SHIFT = 1.3
BACKFIRE_EXT = 1.6
BACKFIRE_INT = 1.6
TRACTION_CONTROL_EXT = 1.3
TRANSMISSION = 4.0
TURBO = 3.0
WHEEL = 3.0

[AUDIO_PITCH]
ENGINE_EXT = 0.9
ENGINE_INT = 0.9

I also wish and hope for a real, made from recordings, 1500cc straight-8 sound, with mechanical supercharger whine, but we do what we can with what we have, right?

 

[Perico Lospa]

... I learned a few things that aren't super obvious that I could maybe make a quick video explaining if you're looking to do motion shots like this...

Thank you very much for the offer, but I'm from the era of manual SLRs and film, and I have basic knowledge about depth of field, shutter speed, aperture, etc.

My problem is that in the latest versions, the way the app processes the image has changed; before, the app was more basic and the image you saw on the screen was practically the same as the one you got in the capture, now it seems that the app interacts with multiple filters, effects and all that jazz, which complicates things too much...

Another strange thing that happens to me sometimes, seemingly randomly, is that when I take a screenshot, the photo (always in 16:9 format and of what I see on the central monitor) appears shifted to the left, so the photo includes part of the left monitor and part of the central monitor, overlapping vertically. I'll see if I can reproduce it and upload an image.

Perhaps I'm the one who doesn't know how to configure it properly, but sometimes, less is more.

Wow, I never knew there was a simple way to adjust volume levels. I have a couple of car mods where the engine sound is ridiculously loud and didn't think I could do anything about it. Thanks for posting this.

Can a member please correct this purple Indy'60 road surface from @GzeroD at the Legion site, see link in Googledrive


Or see in the Breathe tracklisting

Its odd but the version I have on my PC seems to work fine without that missing texture.

MediaFire is a simple to use free service that lets you put all your photos, documents, music, and video in a single place so you can access them anywhere and share them everywhere.

Thanks but here the same at 2.12 CSP, it looks like its missing a dds surface file as I'm clearly see the purple NormalMap.dds surfaces.

 

[Cote Dazur]

As the more I try ACE, the less I like the way it drives, more than ever, I wish I could use the ACE cars in AC, as the way they are modelled in EVO is superb.
Why don't we have access to cars converted from ACE? it is had been a year ACE is on our drive now

Not only the volume, the pitch as well. For example:

[AUDIO_VOLUME]
ENGINE_EXT = 3.0
ENGINE_INT = 3.0
GEAR_EXT = 1.0
GEAR_INT = 1.0
BODYWORK = 2.0
WIND = 1.0
DIRT = 1.0
DOWN_SHIFT = 5.0
HORN = 1.0
GEAR_GRIND = 0.0
BACKFIRE_EXT = 9.5
BACKFIRE_INT = 9.5
TRACTION_CONTROL_EXT = 0.0
TRACTION_CONTROL_INT = 0.0
TRANSMISSION = 5.0
LIMITER = 0.5
TURBO = 5.0
HIT = 1.0
SCRAPE = 1.0
WHEEL = 1.0
SKID_EXT = 1.0
SKID_INT = 1.0

[AUDIO_PITCH]
ENGINE_EXT = 1.0
ENGINE_INT = 1.0
GEAR_EXT = 1.0
GEAR_INT = 1.0
BODYWORK = 1.0
WIND = 1.0
DIRT = 1.0
DOWN_SHIFT = 1.0
HORN = 1.0
GEAR_GRIND = 1.0
BACKFIRE_EXT = 1.0
BACKFIRE_INT = 1.0
TRACTION_CONTROL_EXT = 1.0
TRACTION_CONTROL_INT = 1.0
TRANSMISSION = 1.0
LIMITER = 1.0
TURBO = 1.0
HIT = 1.0
SCRAPE = 1.0
WHEEL = 1.0
SKID_EXT = 1.0
SKID_INT = 1.0

You can also change the revs/sounds behavior, as well. For example:

[AUDIO_PARAMETER_TRANSFORM]
ENGINE_EXT_RPMS = (| 0=0 | 7500=7000 |)
ENGINE_INT_RPMS = (| 0=0 | 7500=7000 |)

For me here, I run with the following audio settings

ext_config is a mother... temperamental but loving lol

For in game, this app I found to be a game changer for per car volume adjustment. Can't tweak as much as the ext_config file, but overall engine volume, transmission, tires etc can be changed in game on the fly and it will load up everytime you use the car

I think I found the solution myself or at least workaround :

changed Projection mode to Basic in the Real Mirrors section (on all other modes I get those blue orbs)

See if that fixes it for you as well... (it's also supposed to be less GPU demanding this mode, so a win-win for squeezing every bit of performance for a good VR experience) Good luck!

Must-have app for me, different cars and modders for different engine levels that break my immersion quite easily.
That and the constant thing where I want my racecar's cockpit bleeding loud and the rest of the world quiet and below all the rest, so triple duty, mixing cockpit sounds, lowering them, eventually mixing external sounds for replays.

I could add that wind effect on closed cockpits is slightly underestimated in AC but all the mixing stuff above is enough work.
Anyways, must-have app. 👍

Fully agree its a game changer, first thing I do when downloading a new mod is normalize the volmue. Saves my ears when later on the rig and putting the headphones on I know won't be super loud!

 

[FrustratedUse]

Ah, That would be why i didn't find anything, Its all on facebook, and that website is basically blocked on my browser so anything posted on there just don't appear when i search around

In other things i have done.

Small update on the Livery Archive we are now almost at 3000 liveries archived, Still plenty to go trough, i have not bothered going trough the skin pack that came with the WSC update will get around to that some day.

Secondly iHTuning re-imported the Acura ARX-06 over to AC. But since i don't want Ian Bell to DMCA strike my ass you can find an direct link to that car in the IMSA tab for the 2026 grid, Including the Aston Martin Valkyrie.

--Basic credit--
3D model: Project Motor Racing
Physics: BBi Muggo / ACF (idk we just re-used their physics as they are somewhat decent)
Shaders: BBi Turro
Rest: BBi Discord for providing all the WEC parts etc and for helping sourcing all the LUA crap that is needed for those stuff.


That's about it i think

View attachment 1508099

Have just been made aware that the entire one drive link for all the liveries that Arnage made has gone offline, idk if it's cause the sudden increase of downloads caused him to suddenly deleted it, But i'll have to bundle everything myself into an easy to download package and have the links updated soon.

Hi, why can't I see my real-time track position in race replays? For example, here I'm 14th, leadboard, but how can I see everyone's real-time position? Thanks.
