Hi,

I wonder what might be causing this:

View attachment 1076085

Like a constant sunny spot around the car - moves along as I drive. Can be other way around too - a cloud following me. Happens with a couple of Velo's cars (DB4 GT and E-Type LM), not depending on the track I choose. I've tried all I know (messing with lod-settings and cameras mostly).

Anybody with a similar issues and/or fix? This totally ruins these car that I would REALLY like to have and be able to enjoy. My CSP version is 0.1.60.
I had similar issue but instead of sunny spot i had huge dark cloud, car had skinned mesh shader and removing that did the trick.

Interesting. Do you remember what exactly did you remove and how, what was the problem shader? You changed some shader in the kn5-file?
 
Hi everyone.

I'm looking for some help from the 3d gurus.

Recently I started to have some problems with tracks. Yesterday I wanted to add more pits to Zandvoort F1 Layout. So what I did was the following:

I opened the .kn5 file which has the AC Cubes with 3dsimed3, than I exported to .fbx so I could add more cubes with Blender. I opened the track with Blender and everything seemed to be correct, so I added the cubes with the correct names and exported to .fbx so I could open in the AC SDK to save it as .kn5

In the AC SDK some parts of the track were transparent, missing textures and also with wrong textures. Do you know what am I doing wrong?

In my investigation I went back to the begginning and after exporting the .kn5 to .fbx in 3dsimed3, and opening the exported file in 3dsimed to see, there was my problem again. Some textures were transparent and some in pink.

I assume that there's something wrong while exporting in 3dsimed, is that right? Also the pink textures makes me think that maybe there's some kind of encryption?

Any help would be highly aprecciated. I'm making this so I can run a championship with my league. The track only has 24 spots, I need at least 40. Cheers!
 
Try this: delete dwrite.dll from AC main folder. Reinstall CSP from inside CM.
You really should be getting logs, this sound very odd.

Thanks for the idea. I tried it, but no change.

I also meant to post my latest CSP logs:

Hope this might help. This rather sucks.


Thanks again!

I have the same problem and the same log, if you solved it, could you tell me how did you solve the problem?
Who knows how to help me can answer?
Thanks in advance.

the texture folder and the fbx project must be in the same folder, and with 3dsimed you must generate the AC.ini file so that the AC sdk recognizes all the textures.

Anyway, to add more pits you can do it with 3dsimed only, clone a pit box and rename it, place it where you want and that's it, you don't need blender to do that task.
 
Hi guys a little help, are there skins for this car?

Lamborghini Diablo SV-R 1996

Many thanks for help
 
I started quickly fiddling with Jerez '94 to swap out some of the bland terrain textures and one thing led to another... long story short, here's a 'new' track called Circuito de Jerez 2010 assembled from various versions of the track, with GrassFX, RainFX (both bastardised and with surplus stuff no doubt, both could definitely be improved), lots of new textures baked in throughout, new billboards, active airspace, geotags, new previews and other stuff I've forgotten.
It's probably historically inaccurate, I'm not sure when the new pit buildings were added but the '94 track is a better base (IMO) than the newer version. The '2010' year was pretty randomly chosen as an identifier.
Released in a new folder so it doesn't undo the work of others, however anonymous they are.
Needs lighting added to the config if anyone has time to spare.
The 'Timber' skin for some billboard backs needs to be active... for some reason this wouldn't bake in to the track. No idea why.
The billboard mapping is as per the original track, ie slight stretching/squashing in places as art is reused in different locations, but I've tried to minimise the effect.

Thank you for releasing this.

In case you need some resources like the pit buildings, viewbridge, etc to make a current iteration of it let me know I can share those with you.

Thanks, but I was only planning on spending a few minutes on it but got sucked in... :lol:
Feel free to chop it up if you want and add the new TSOs - it'd be good to get it as a proper post-2018 Circuito de Jerez – Ángel Nieto.
 
good day people! I want to share with you another TXC job! Morón Air Base! It is an almost final version, it has cameras, it has a grid but I feel that it lacks a lot of work, if someone wants to modify it, they have the right to do it but please do not forget to mention the team that made this possible. https://mega.nz/file/0pxhAKBI#O_Hj0IKhH1Kk0OL42gdCislGPEt_KBVR0i-xMUl38PQ
@slider666 Ext_config and fixed all problems
@DaBaeda thanks for tutorial cams @damone13x thanks for your work
@LiquidSkyMan IA, UI and track límits

Update all! New textures! Need a new road mesh!

3dsimed
  • pink textures = missing texture (NOT because it is encrypted)
  • invisible textures = set to transparent+alpha with alpha texture
  • wrong texture = bad UV scalling / wrong texture / shared texture disrupted by bad objects / some other excuse

your track has several issues!
One reason "might" be that the track was never processed with ksEditor (made in blender/max/ or edited and saved as .kn5)


Try this:
export .kn5 with CM/kn5conv
open new .fbx in editor if needed
open .fbx and save .kn5 with ksEditor

Honestly if you are just adding grids simply create a new file in 3dsimed, add your grids, save as example_new_grid.kn5
add to models.ini (there is no need to edit a .kn5 just to add objects/grids/pits)

Can you recall what shader caused the issue and what changes you made? Sorry to bother but this thing is driving me mad and I'm after any possible solution. :D
It was ksSkinnedMesh, i changed it to ksperpixel and no problem, glad to help if i can.
That's Velos version of the car?,i'll take a look if i get same problem too.

Quick check and both running fine without any abnormalies,might be csp issue,try without it . I have 1.74.

Well they both seem to be working fine now... Though I changed absolutely nothing with CSP. I deleted the cars earlier today and downloaded them again, maybe Velo did a super ninja stealth update to them? :D

Thanks for your help anyway.
 
Two more legendary teams, "Ford Motor Co." from 1964 and "Matra Sports SARL/Shell", as usual, errors in the conversion, but the cars "go" well on the track...kkkk

Neil, apologies, I couldn't have tested this track back in May and just came across it during a purge. I really like it!
Has there been any progress since May, and are there any plans to add the remaining three layouts (as per Terra21's 2016 version on RD)? The tarmac is there and driveable, they just (!) need coning off and separating.
I'm getting some weird shading on the trees and bushes in certain light... could the normals need pointing up (just a guess... IDK)?
Thanks for this track - was it scratch-built?
What other tracks are yours?
 
the texture folder and the fbx project must be in the same folder, and with 3dsimed you must generate the AC.ini file so that the AC sdk recognizes all the textures.

Anyway, to add more pits you can do it with 3dsimed only, clone a pit box and rename it, place it where you want and that's it, you don't need blender to do that task.
They are in the same folder and there is the .ini file. I don't know why that is happening. Maybe because of impot/export settings?

I avoid using 3dsimed for editing because it takes so long. In blender I could add the AC Cubes much faster. But I want to find out what is happening because what if I'm making something else and I can't rely on 3dsimed for editing? :/

3dsimed
  • pink textures = missing texture (NOT because it is encrypted)
  • invisible textures = set to transparent+alpha with alpha texture
  • wrong texture = bad UV scalling / wrong texture / shared texture disrupted by bad objects / some other excuse

your track has several issues!
One reason "might" be that the track was never processed with ksEditor (made in blender/max/ or edited and saved as .kn5)


Try this:
export .kn5 with CM/kn5conv
open new .fbx in editor if needed
open .fbx and save .kn5 with ksEditor

Honestly if you are just adding grids simply create a new file in 3dsimed, add your grids, save as example_new_grid.kn5
add to models.ini (there is no need to edit a .kn5 just to add objects/grids/pits)
I tried using kn5conv but the track couldn't even be loaded to Blender. The error says: "ASCII FBX files are not supported" (I guess that's for 3dsMax?)

Right now I'm editing the cubes with 3dsimed and I'll give some feedback later. It is quite difficult to use.

Like I said, I wanted to find the issue so I can learn and have no problems like this in the future.

Here's the track if you guys wan't to take a look:
