Assetto Corsa PC Mods General DiscussionPC

[Fanapryde]

Hello, thank you, yes this is true for the previews, but the car looks like that on the track too. I've clean installed 3 times just to be sure and still same issue. How do I fix that?

There was an update today for that car, have you tried that ?
Works fine in game:

But yeah, it's still encrypted, so in the bin it goes...

I assume you're using Content Manager? Encrypted cars will always look that way on track with vanilla AC.

EDIT: I've just seen your original post and you are. Maybe try the update above.

Sadly still the same after update. Ah well, in the bin it goes. Hope someone ports it over from GT in the future unencrypted. Cheers for your help all

I just tried it.
The cockpit view clips through the driver's face and helmet. Normally an easy fix, but not when encrypted. Renders it totally unusable in VR unless you want to drive hunched over the steering wheel like Quasimodo.
The sequential shifter is mapped as an h-pattern manual. Again, normally an easy fix, but not when encrypted.
These were both obvious after just one minute in the car.

With encryption comes great responsibility... to get the bloody basics right at least.
It's a shame, the car might have been good. But who knows?



I wonder if modders feel any sense of embarrassment when this happens? All that work wasted on so many hopeful users.
Hopefully he'll buck the trend and fix it, but most modders seem not to care, they're already furiously trying to get their next mod out as soon as possible for all those FB likes.

I think I'm most disappointed because, despite such a healthy range of touring cars on AC, this was the first one I ever drove on a game and I've been waiting for someone to drop it so I can relive those happy memories. Never mind, onto the next mod!

Hopefully he uses chase cam and automatic gears and just hasn't realised a few of the issues for cockpit drivers who use manual shifting.
Hopefully they'll get fixed.
The encryption just makes it doubly annoying when these types of issues happen though.

I contacted Lucas this morning on his Youtube channel about the face/helmet issue. He replied to me, uploaded another update, and I checked it for him, as he doesn't have VR. He's checking his other mods for the issue as well. He's on Facebook. Seems like a cool guy (not sure if he's on here).

I think the face/helmet clipping should be evident in 2D as well if cockpit view is tested and the view moved back far enough.

Also: https://www.racedepartment.com/downloads/zagato-gavia-1993.49517/ https://www.racedepartment.com/downloads/1994-zhonghua-zidantou-chb6401ta.44059/ Another two decent cars.

for the first one (sc_ford_c100) i made some extra (plain color) skins, you can dl them here

Sweet ride indeed, but does someone have a fix for the mirrors (they are not working at all) ?

cheers!

Think I got everything worked out for Imola stock and Imola F1 2021 mod. Give it a try and let me know of problems. Please remember to backup existing files and folders first. I don't want to cause anyone any problems.

Imola Update

My changes are separated by what they do. They can easily be disabled by editing the ext_config file and setting the option you want turned off to ACTIVE = 0.

Original post updated with new version. Small update for a couple things I missed.

-- Missed a material adjustment for the bush object's brightness
-- Restored track state lights on the F1 2021 mod version
-- Added option for slightly lighter trees\vegetation. Can be activated in the ext_config. Make sure to deactivate the dark tree version
-- Added folder to restore Pyyer's original configs to easily go back to his version if you prefer it.

Might be best to delete the config files from the extension folders from my last version just to be safe.

ACTL v3.0 by Breathe

 

[StoffelWaffle]

Quick question : how do you fix the transparency issue on some cars when using cockpit / dash cam ?
Like, the windshield is alright but the side windows have this greish/blueish opaque tint.
And the transparency is ok in chase cam / showroom / whatevs.

 

[Vintagedriver]

Lotus 49, 49B versions for 1968...using Lotus 49 (official), Lotus 49b biplane and Lotus 49C (perendinator site) cars. There are still minor adjustments to be made. And to top it off, there's still the Lotus 56B turbine (British Gp version, Reine Wisell and the Italian Gp version, Emerson Fittipaldi)...but how to simulate this "turbine" engine. I took the sound of the Audi Group B, the parameters of the engine "turbine" of the rfactor... and I put only "2 gears" in the exchange, it was satisfactory... the speed can exceed 300km/h...

I know its for some experienced GT members a dumb question, but what is MrLonguiha17 creating here? I do see he is creating something of a car (skin, model) but apparently no download link to check what kind of car model he did create.
Did check questions from other members about his publishing, but he never did give an clear answer.
Can a member please explain what he is publish, or are these only teasers?

Try this on the internal glass:

Fantastic piece of work - I love the improvements! Separating real from fictional and race from road is really helpful as is the list of links on the second tab!

Thanks Tim.
It will still take some time to finalize this version 3.0 but step by step...

That is an F1 1968 mod which is not existing until now.
He is making them, also Le Man's cars.

If you use reshade above version 4.9 the de-cryption ingame is broken, so use reshade 4.9 and the issue is gone. Ilja is aware of that issue and it will be fixed in next CSP.

 

[Luca959]

Separate and animate the suspensions, resize the models because they're at least 30% too big, physics as u mentioned, port the other variants available in the RF mod...

... This is to much for one guy (I tried once, left after a few cars) lol

The people at sim dream don't understand anything about physics (and they even charge for it), you'd need someone with balls to make a balance of performance of that mod, then it would be decent enough.

I appreciate the interest in Bryar.

Well, it's a nice track.
Attached is a sections.ini file (track description).

And I involuntarily (missed a corner) found some detail under water:

😄

 

[lorelord]

just seen this on FB. not sure if its been posted and I havent had time to test but looks interesting and may be a decent a2b if the ai ever gets made.

 

[Masscot]

Found on the Dark Web*
Not tried it myself.



*Facebook

Edit: beaten like a ginger stepchild.

This is the place where lots of wingsuit jumps take place for centering the hole, an amazing place in China!

 

[POV]

Finally, the last track that I've been waiting for in AC has arrived! My track collection is complete (pending updates).
Thank you so much.

It was so good to read this. Not the usual "Now we only need ....."

 

[RMi_wood]

just seen this on FB. not sure if its been posted and I havent had time to test but looks interesting and may be a decent a2b if the ai ever gets made.

looking at the video and the ext_config this track needs some help. Maybe I will... have a look.

Update: Conffidence is very low on this one, I made a few normal maps, re-run ksEditor... but...

1. the trees are a bad issue and do not have shadows or proper ksAlphaRef (both will kill performance)
2. all posts/blocks walls are all one object, so doing LODs to help performance is impossible as there are 100's (ditto with the trees)
3. I wanted to try... its just not worth the effort IMHO.
4. sorry (in the bin)

Sorry, going to sound dumb again here, i've looked in content manager and cant find a way to downgrade to 4.9? currently running 5.0... any help would be appreciated

Reshade is a separate program, nothing to do with content manager. just download an older version from their website and re-install. I wonder how many people who have reshade installed actually make use of it. I had it installed for a while but didn't find any useful filter that would add anything on top of what SOL/PURE have to offer. But I don't care about screenshots or watch replays, so maybe that's why...

Different topic:
Big announcement from TGN on their FB page, they are planning to release a car pack containing unfinished mods. I don't know the reasoning behind this but this might lead to a lot of unfinished mods flooding the internet that never get updated. I'd prefer them to take the time to finish and release one car at a time and improve their quality standards since I haven't come across any "finished" car from them so far tbh.
