Assetto Corsa PC Mods General DiscussionPC

[Masscot]

Thanks Masscot for providing a new update to that little gem. If you want to try something out, just put the sound from Peter Crill´s Lotus 2-Eleven NA via CM on that Golf, its just an awesome natural aspirated sound and fits perfectly (also on the Kunos M3 E30).

Ah, but the chirp, man... does it have the chirp?

 

[Warren B]

On that basis though Forza Horizon is the best sim out there, which is demonstrably untrue.
Proper sims, like the ones F1 teams use, look pretty bare bones.
Having said that I like all the nice looking candy. But it was never 'better graphics' = sim. Not all that long ago it was the reverse in fact.
I've never heard anyone before say that part of what makes something a racing sim is the trees or grass texture.
But maybe that has indeed changed with the whole shift in the way sim racing has gone.
People more than ever, me included, like the nice graphics.

Ok sure, making it look more like you are there isn't immetsive, and we may as well have stuck with spectrum zx81 graphics.
Don't know about you, but I use objects and parts of scenery as indicators for braking points and reference, the same as I do in the real world when on track. The better the graphics, the more ommersive, end of story.
Sure F1 sims are bare bones, so the computing power can run their fanct simulations better, but they'll still be graphically as close to accurate for objects etc.
Forza? Never played it or seen it in action, so I'll skip that part of your narrative.
I'd love to know who said better graphics=better sim though. better graphics, better sound, better physics, whatever is available to improve the info to the senses makes for a better sim..

I can unpack data.acd, but if pack, the car does not work. So, if the data.acd is encrypted, there are no options to solve the problem?

If you unpack the data.acd, delete the data.acd file (so you only have the 'data' folder) and don't repack does the car still work? If so, then you can edit the physics.

If not (i.e., The game crashes when you try to drive the car or the car is made of a bunch of blue triangles) then no, you can't edit it

Thank you very much for all the great skins you've made for this car racealot. I'd also like to award you the Inaugural '2023 Best File Naming Practices' Award. 👏 Excellent!

I get so frustrated when downloading mod files just called 'content', or something equally uninformative - which then end up in my downloads folder amongst many others, with no clues whatsoever what mod they apply to. Your naming makes it simple and clear.

Hello.

Is it possible to turn this car into a (Fictional) DTM version of the Mitsubishi Colt HK51?

for making it a DTM, it needs:

-single seater left hand drive (don't care if right hand drive since it's fictious and DTM cars don't exist in right hand)
-rim change to retro BBS DTM mesh
-roll cages
-DTM style front bumper and wing with license plate removal (because DTM don't have license plates)
-change stock interior to DTM racing modified (Steering wheel change (stock to DTM fitting steering wheel like momo), stock tachometer change to racing, single racing seat like sparco or recaro and add gauges on dashboard)
-fictional mitsubishi DTM liveries

Thanks.

Hi All,

I realised that Kunos BMW M4's android has gone blank. I checked car instruments over csp and other kunos cars all fine. I assume it's gone after latest csp update. If anybody have any idea I really appreciate it. Thanks

Of course, you are right and i agreed in that, but clearly this shift has happened but go back to the start of rfactor days and it was the best sim out there at that time, all the markers can be there still just not as detailed etc.
I know because i have converted many very detailed rfactor mod tracks.
If a tree is slightly off the proper actual tree (bar that funny one at snetterton, its iconic), it really isn't important to me, if it is to others then great no worries.
I'm not talking about general "bridge there" "tree there" and has "building at end of the straight"
I'm talking about all the "that tree there is not that green in real life in June".

Yep will be pretty much done as the weekend of the event starts. So Friday.

Also...... finally got back to this after i was asked to convert it.

Any tips to find drag tracks in AC? I've got a few but if you know of any good patreons or sites then I'd be glad to know.
Sand drag racing is new to me, never knew it was a thing.
Anyway Santa Pod is quite a way off sadly. Looks good for pictures' though. Would be one of those tracks where it would be nice to get community help.... hint hint, as i actually got permission to do this one.
I do all this on my own (bit of input from a bud but he mainly just gets loads of tracks to test) but this strip could be great, as it is its great for pictures because that gantry is iconic....

That's all well and good if the climates are similar the world over.. take 2 tracks for example in the same city, for arguments sake lakeside in Brisbane and Queensland raceway (Ipswich, but its close enough to be Brisbane, about 60-90 mins apart)
You'll be very unlikely to ever see snow at Lakeside, but at Queensland raceway it's a totally different climate, far colder in winter than Lakeside. Go further south, to Wakefield park, or even east to Morgan Park, it is possible that you will get snow there, Townsville, Darwin, not a snowballs chance in hell.
I think its great that racinjoe is trying to capture, even the vegetation and how the trees appear are different.. what each area looks like in the seasons, because i sure as hell wouldnt want my tracks in NZ, or Australia looking like a Canadian, US or Middle East climate.. this is a sim after all, isnt the whole point trying to simulate reality as best we can?

You're misunderstanding me, I think. Regarding vegetation, we're in full agreement. Capture how that looks throughout the season! A pine goes through the season differently than a birch, which looks different through the year than a cypress.

But snow? If you want to simulate reality, you should want snow to be a weather phenomenon rather than a season, because that's what it is in reality.

Here are two panoramas of the Red Bull Ring from their website to illustrate my point:

The first is from December 12, the second from January 10. Some days there's snow, some days there isn't. If this was AC, it would slowly start fading to white in mid December and would fade back to green some time in February. There is no winter look on this track in AC without snow!

I'm arguing, in an ideal world, snow shouldn't be part of the winter look of seasonal adjustments at all. Winter should look like winter because of the vegetation and light conditions. Whether there's snow should purely be a matter of weather.

Unfortunately, in our non-ideal world, we can't pull up SOL planner and configure our desired snow levels. We don't have working snow weather yet. We don't have graphics for snowflakes on the windscreen, there is no slider to increase snow build up on and off-track, no calculations for ice on the road... Right now, the only way to at least get a snowy look on the landscape is via the season. That's why I'd argue there should be a winter look (without snow!) but also a week or two some time in winter WITH snow (doesn't really matter how rare it is in the area so long as the chance is above 0) just so a player who wants to play in snow can set that up. If it only snows every other year somewhere, fine, but what if I want my simulated race to take place just then? It's a compromise. A workaround, until snow weather is implemented.

I love your work man, it really is amazing and it shows that you put passion into it. Thank you.

Just a little something I have been beavering away on.
Being from NZ, I closely identify with motorsports on this side of the world.
Since not alot of NZ content gets created, I have tried getting stuck into the Toyota Racing Series, which from this year is known as The Formula Regional Oceania Championship.
I've also done some kiwi skins for Group A's and some ACL Trans Ams but never released them because without being able to add logos on windscreens or side windows, I've always felt they're not finished.
This is still WIP. The mod is still in the works and I think is likely to be an encrypted pay mod. The model they are on uses the same 3d model as the one in the works, so FSR Tatuus F3 T318 is not the mod it will be running on in the end.

Anyways, here's the latest bit of work.

[GT3Masters97]

Guys, finally the mystery of the cm has been solved. Windows, in a very nice way, decided to start it in energy saving mode (using the integrated gpu and not the dedicated nvidia). Now everything goes smoothly. For those who find themselves in this situation, go to the windows settings, type "graphics" in the search bar, select graphics settings, select the cm/add it if it is not present, click on options and choose "high performance". Have a nice day

I need your expertise.

1.
when I go back with the cockpit camera, the body comes into the picture very quickly on certain modcars. Is there a way to change this? I want the front arms with hands to move the steering wheel, but I sometimes don't see enough of the cockpit when I move the camera back and then the driver's body comes in immediately.

2.
I notice that in the cockpit view, when I go back a little further, the numbers on the speedometer quickly become blurred. If I zoom in again, it becomes sharp. But I prefer to see enough from the cockpit. Is this normal?

Many thanks for your help Oliver

Speaking of Brazilian Stock Car Racing on AC, i would like to think of having these Raceroom fictional
vehicles mod on AC:


Cougar C14-1
Cougar C14-2
Canhard R51
Canhard R52

Is there a model of these to import it to AC?

@RMi_wood - would you happen to know if raceroom cars are able to be imported into AC? These look like they could be a hoot...

Yeah, somehow this works. I was trying to decide if these modern liveries jive with this older car, but I think the core design of the car itself is fresh enough to support them.

The ones that have already been adapted look OK, perhaps a bit too colourful for the era but nice...

Now all THIS is right on the money!

WIP - this historical-one is coming along OK... unfortunately cannot locate images covering all angles, so there may be some stuff missing...

Thanks, must be some related to my configuration...

Will test latest update on a few tracks and the ones you mentioned, Barcelona etc and will let you know... Will test all race-modes so may take a little while...

I installed that Littlebirdie...
and it turned my PC into an oven and baked me some very tasty cake!

Did you say cake! Take a look at this south-american-styled xmas cake (special recipe)... It's the cake to have when doing liveries and it's yummyyyyy...

Hello,

after my PC freezed with CM opened, I have a problem: in night race, big light sources (as sun during sunrire or sunset, or the moon or big streetlights too) produce big glare (see the pic in attach). I tried to reset CSP in light section and I also tried to install the 1.79 CSP (I used the 1.76) but nothing changed.
Another issue: the headlithgts of the car I drive work, but seem to be less powerfull than before I have the problem and now it's difficult to drive in the night. And this with all different cars I tested.
Please, how can I fix this tow problem?

thank you very much

FYI - from experience, when I've had to reboot the PC from a completely frozen state or power-outage, I've had to reinstall AC, SOL, CM, CSP all over - that's cause file corruptions do occur under these circumstances, and more than oftern software-programs suffer file-data-integrity issues... I'd start with AC, test, then CM, test, then SOL, test, and CSP last... If you then still have issues, it could also be the PC's operating system and associated drivers...

Thank you very much for all the great skins you've made for this car racealot. I'd also like to award you the Inaugural '2023 Best File Naming Practices' Award. 👏 Excellent!

I get so frustrated when downloading mod files just called 'content', or something equally uninformative - which then end up in my downloads folder amongst many others, with no clues whatsoever what mod they apply to. Your naming makes it simple and clear.

Agree wholeheartedly, having folder-structured-templates does help the situation and as we all know, it's neatly organised and housed in the relevant folder so that it can be dropped onto CM for a quick installation... It does make things easier when there's plenty of download material...

Thanks for the nomination and award

Guys! Question .
15 seconds before the race start suddenly the view goes from the inside the car to outside with the different camera angels .
Then in last second after all red lights turn on its bring me back behind the wheel .
How can I fix it to stay on the car ?
Thanks advance for the help !
