well , I am stupid enough to do it ahhaha , i understand ur stuff about those boolean and opti from Gran turismo

on the bmw vision , which i called gt2 , I rework the whole mesh of the car + added the details of those holes for example which was some weirdo boolean stuff

car had no interior too ...

The thing about GT7 Model Opti is not just their unique Tessellation Model (basically Dynamic LOD Subdivision), but they have a very interesting Boolean method & it reminds me of this blender addon that i own for making model detail easier.

The Kunos 595? It shouldn't be encrypted or anything. Unpacking it's data and 3D model works just fine on my end without it breaking the rest of the car.

I was talking about the 3D model, at least on my side everything breaks when I recreate the .kn5 file. I have to try again, the last time I tried was over a year ago

Today I also worked on the Alfa Romeo 4C. I wanted to leave the original ext_config.ini intact and create a new one in every skin folder, but I ran into problems doing this way. You need to overwrite the existing config file in the extension folder. For those who want to use it, make a backup of the original one in case you want to revert. In the zip you'll find an ao map for the rims, copy that in every skin folder.

PS: matte liveries have a problem with the rear plastic bumper. The problem is relative to the ao map, but that part is included into the body ao map. Changing that will eliminate the matte effect unfortunately, so I didn't touch anything.

Anyone else ever had this issue? I'll load into a session and it works once but if I try that same track again even if it's the same car it'll stop loading at like 94%

Edit: Added a screenshot for context. This one is the most common issue, it also seems to happen with lua scripts (specifically ones from CSP that have never had issues until a couple days ago)

I just realised you are the first person I've come across that actually got what my name is a reference to (well the closest, it's a portmanteau of Solar Sunrise, a virus made for Solaris OS)

Im old, security researcher. Lots of Sun exploits and vulns back in the day... fun times.

I feel bad when I see an element that should be metallic without any value that makes it so (no reflections etc.) 👀 I've never worked with a GT model directly, but I'll take your word for it.

I just worked with the 595 taken from FH and there were 800 different materials, 800 different 3D elements.. I think I've become dumber than usual because of it LOL


**** LOL I believe some of them are encrypted or something like that because when I unpack them (like the 595 SS) the car stops working 🤔

If you rename a car's folder, and fix the SFX, the car will work fine.
If you then unpack the data.acd into /data, it will be gibberish in the unpacked files.
The car folder name is used as a key when the data is packed.
Unpacking it in a renamed folder (different key) breaks the ACD decryption.
(Key give-away: ~"lods.ini is corrupt or defective")
Might be what you've done?

This is exactly the case, thanks for the explanation

EDIT: I've updated the ext_config for the Alfa Romeo 4C, I've noticed a problem with the color of the pbr_leather_pattern. Now it's correct, no more white dots.

 

[Perico Lospa]

... I've updated the ext_config for the Alfa Romeo 4C...

Okay, I put your "extension" folder inside "ks_alfa_romeo_4c", put your updated "ex_config.ini" file inside it, and this is what I got...

... a lot of elements are missing. I don't know what I've done wrong...

That's strange 🤔

I have a backup if you need it. Anyway, let's say it's always my usual luck: when I do something, everything explodes LOL I'm also waiting for further feedback to understand if this is an isolated case.

Hi. Unfortunately same on my end.

Thanks, and don't worry; we'll wait a bit to see if it's one of those mysterious glitches that only affect one person and if so, whether it's me... 😅

P.D. Just saw the previous message... 😥

We'll see what happens, but don't worry...everything always breaks in strange ways for me too. I hope I can help you 😣

Hi. Unfortunately same on my end.

hmm the thing I don't understand is how shaders can make meshes disappear. Let's hypothesize we all have three different versions of the 4C, the config simply shouldn't work.. I'm quite confused.

 

[Perico Lospa]

... Let's hypothesize we all have three different versions of the 4C, the config simply shouldn't work...

In my case, it's the vanilla version of the car; I've never modified it... I'd bet my money that the cause would be the use of different PPFs, or versions / settings of the increasingly complex world of CSP... (0.3.0 p342 and pureHDR here).

I don't know, I don't think so... I hope so 😶‍🌫️

Just guessing out of the blue without trying it, but have you checked in ...\extension\config\cars\loaded if there is another .ini which may interfere with the extension file? Maybe disable this one and try again.

Indeed, I have a "ks_alfa_romeo_4c.ini" file located in the "loaded" folder. I've tried renaming or moving it out of the folder, but it hasn't helped. It seems that when the car loads, the system regenerates it automatically, because when I check the "loaded" folder again, the file reappears...

... although you may have given a clue as to what's happening...

I have the same file in the same location but everything works fine

I think it is loaded every time you start because you set it in CM to be loaded automatically?

Hi, I can't download the AO file. There's no "save" button at the bottom right. It's not a .dds file, but a .png file. I downloaded the map, but I can't download the AO file...

Some skins for the WSC Ferrari 330 P3 Berlinetta and Spyder. 2 skins for each model, clean and grimed versions for all. (My quest for grimed skins for upcoming AIW-WSC stuff continues. Halfway to the required 30...)

I didn't see your message yesterday, it was late and I had to stop messing around; the alarm clock rings very early.

I think yes, I do have set the car configs to load automatically; I'll try to take a look and test as soon as I can.

Thank you once again for your perseverance in unraveling these mysteries!

Shouldnt affect an extension in the cars folder at all. 🤷‍♂️

If there is an extension in a skin folder it overwrites the extension in the cars and the extension in the loaded folder. If there is an extension in the cars folder it overrides the extension in the loaded folder.

At least it always worked that way in the past. So maybe smtg is broken in CSP (again.) It could be helpful to know which version the guys with and without problems are using.

to make changes to the extension file located in "loaded",you need to upload the updated file to GitHub.only then will everyone see the changes

Lmao what the **** is that mapping anyways
