Hi.
If you don't want to see the driver's helmet while looking at the Alfa 74 IMSA in the interior view, add this line to the data, driver3d file:Hi.
Appreciate Your sense of humor and fix You made for banner.
Well spotted damper inequality. It was missed issue in setup.
New link updated with Your banner fix and damper setup fix.
Hopefully this will help to tame this monster.

Hi.

verrideReflectionCubemap() method for recreating the style of car previews in the main menu;I overlooked that. Refractions are resource heavy from the get go. This make that even worse.

No direct mention, so I assume the godawful crackling audio in some spec races is still a problem?New CSP Version lights-patch-v0.3.0-preview440-full

- Fixed bug with engine air density sensitivity;
- Asymmetrical setup options for cosmic;
- Aero/ride height lookups fixed;

- Ghost resumes at the exact paused frame after exiting AC's built-in replay (was teleporting to recording start);
- Fixed “Recording lost due to rewind” after replay-exit cycle;
- Added replay-exit grace window for car teleports and a post-replay settle window for the compensator to filter AC’s transient session-clock snaps;

- Upscalers:
- DLSS updated to 310.6.0, better support for user-provided DLLs;

Hey sorry to bump such an old post, but did you manage to find a solution for this? Cars are crashing out for me too, and they are also super slow. I managed to outlap them in a short race and I had same car as AI.
there is no open/import function... but I am old and stupid so that might be a thing
Warning : already 2 people react on patreon they lost their FFB with this update!?
in you audio_engine.ini (in \assettocorsa\system\cfg )
Did you delete all the payloads and grid ai files? How about making your own ai? It's not rocket science if I can manage to pull it off from time to time. If you can drive a fast lap, you can create a decent ai line. The inclusion of an ai_hints.ini file can also work wonders. I don't mean to sound like an expert because I'm far from it, but I find it fun to tackle new things that aren't that complex.
i actually did a test
I've been reading the guide, because I don't have ACE, but it seems like the car process is quite a lot different. A lot more controlled naming conventions and stuff. I think once people get their heads around that mods will start to come out, but its a lot more complex.
Not sure you saw this link -
Could be related to node changes or replacements. I guess the OBS pugin uses a scene capture and this must go through the track nodes and if there is a missing node, but the reference is still in the list then it tries to access a freed memory and so it crashes.
acstuff.club
Well its not really that much more complicated, just naming rules and a bit different to AC1. There was nothing in there that even a amateur modder like myself was thinking is beyond me. Animated suspension might take a bit more figuring out. Physics looked actually like a nicer tool to use. You have to split models up a lot more than you could get away with on AC1, but its not impossible, just follow their guide rules.
