Assetto Corsa PC Mods General DiscussionPC

[Kurt Woods]

Could anyone share or suggest tracks that have really high quality tree textures I could steal from. Any deciduous type tree would do, but I would really like a couple of tall pines. The kind that don't have a ton of leaves but are mostly trunks, if that makes any sense.

Take a look at Horsma has a good mix.

 

[ukzz4iroc]

I´ve asked that also in Binary discord, but why do most of all newly released cars don´t throw a correct shadow underneath the car? It always looks like the car has been put into that image.

@petercrill ? CSP or mod bug?

You know, I think it is pedestrian crossings- I have this same problem with any car in Tokyo R246.

Edit: I see it was TAA- good to know!

Small update to my Nords and Monza Fall\Winter trees skins. The trees should look more like trees now as opposed to my poor attempt to make them on my own. Thanks to @CrisT86 for pointing me in the direction of a website with tree textures. I didn't go there looking for these, but when I saw them, it made sense to use them. You may need to do some editing on the textures to get the brightness where you like depending on what track config you use. They are setup for my own personal config.

I have few mod packs from here - https://thracing.de/the-cars-and-tracks-we-race/
But in almos all cars wipers not working. Someone made update for it?
I saw few similar cars on actk wh working wipers but i prefer those packs from thracing.

This is not the final release and there are still lots of issues and nothing is final yet, including trees, textures, sidelines, AI, models, etc. Also not much optimization has gone into this version yet.

Note: there's no start/finish line on this track as it's not a race track by design. The (invisible) S/F lines are right behind the marhsall posts in the pitlane. Maybe I'll add S/F lines to dedicated race layouts and remove them for trackday layouts...

Anyone else having that issue

I'm getting pop up trees. Anyone mind pointing me in the direction of adjusting render distance? Thanks.

Is this compatible with the new treefx for monza recently released?

No. This is for those that are not using the treefx version.

As all of about 3 people liked the Autosport Arena on here, and I know how much these UK oval tracks are received, I thought i'd share some pics of actual tracks i'm in the process of making myself.
They are about as easy a track as you could find, but so far very rewarding using the GIS thing on blender. Obviously when the GRASS FX kicks in it works well in game.

Pretty chuffed. They look like dog poo in 3dsimed, but i'll add some more props along the way.

Hi, I have a problem for quite long time, is there a special setting to adjust or what can be done with leefless trees ? (for example latest racinjoe13 nordschelife skin, but i have this in other skins too) First picture in Track adjustments trees A2c dithering off, second picture on. Its bad either way.

Don't use any winter skin, these are winter trees. A2c dithering off actually look better, I've always wanted to get rid of those tree artifacts, I thought it was caused by AA, thanks for showing me the way!

 

[safi hellie]

So here is Santa Pod progress, made the base more appealing, pics tell all.

Then Calthwaite grass track. Very early but raceable, just needs better trees etc as much is placeholders. But my first 'scratch' made track, in AC.

The bumps and elevation changes are something else, never driven a surface like it in AC incredible.

Can someone please explain the time acceleration setting in the Sol Planner? For example, why this plan always defaults to 40x time acceleration on start-up, even when I've previously changed it back to 1x?
Time is also set to 1x in CM/Drive settings.
@Peter Boese?

It's bugging me too. The only workaround I figured out is to set the desired time acceleration value for each slot (aka single plan) export it to disk, and import it again. Reimporting the plan after saving is important, otherwise it won't keep the acceleration value. Exporting/importing the preset for all plans didn't work either.

I just came across the ACU Barcelona City track. Dunno how I could have missed that one out
Here are some spectators to fill up the empty grandstands (camera_facing.ini)

Add this to the ext_config.ini

[MODEL_REPLACEMENT_...]
FILE=mclaren_720s_gt3.kn5, mclaren_720s_gt3_lodb.kn5, mclaren_720s_gt3_lodc.kn5, mclaren_720s_gt3_lodd.kn5, mclaren_720s_gt3_lod_b.kn5, mclaren_720s_gt3_lod_c.kn5, mclaren_720s_gt3_lod_d.kn5
HIDE=Object-002


Is this screenshot from a race which took place within AC Evolution? If yes, the author has set it´s races to 40x time acceleration by default.

Thank you good sir! This is the appropriate fix 👍👍

Man.

I really miss playing Firemint Real Racing HD on IOS.

It's been some years of not playing it and i'm on Android since 2013 and no longer plays Ios since 2017.

Vehicles list:
2 Door 1.8 Litre
2 Door 3.8 Litre
2 Door 4.0 Litre
2 Door 4.7 Litre
2 Door 5.0 Litre
2 Door 6.0 Litre V12
2 Door 6.5 Litre V12

Does anyone know of a decent quality BTCC BMW 318is? Primarily the 1992 variant, which is minus any aero. I would like to create a '92 championship to go along with the Cavalier that's been released recently.

This 318i is a JTCC, but should be close: https://www.assettoworld.com/car/bmw-318i-jtcc

And I assume you already have the BTCC pack from ClaudioWRC74: https://mega.nz/folder/ZFQSVARB#mye2dTzjcZnB3j5yvRuCNA

Is there a way to override ai.ini in ext_config.ini? I need this for some encrypted mods that the ai won't start.

Not sure myself but one of the many reasons I despise encrypted mods.

Don't start it
I believe most of us here share your sentiment. I keep a few cars I really like that I couldn't find the alternatives.

 

[Vintagedriver]

No. This is for those that are not using the treefx version.

I did run yesterday a couple of races using the treeFX tracks and I think you as a good modder should seriously consider the use of TreeFX, because its a much better view and maybe not at a flat monitor but sure its leveling up the immersion factor in VR. And yes like all beautiful aspects in life, it do cost you in this case a seriously loss in performance. But think that can be reduced by adding lesser FX trees near the tarmac and only use the ugly 2D trees at the distance.

Ah, good tip. I tried something similar yesterday, but what I did was import one of the 1x presets then edit the weather slots. I'll try what you suggest when back home later.

Good point you have there about the possible difference between VR and flats.
I'm on triples and tbh the whole treeFX as it is now is looking quite bad. Last time I tried was the Monza circuit. After half a lap I went back to the original. Others I tried were equally bad looking.

@Vintagedriver

I think that if you take a look at latest dirt track from @RMi_wood - Michigan trail, you will see that using the correct textures in Y trees doesn't take away anything from immersion.

treefx is very expensive, i cant use it in vr with a 3080...

I'll have a look. The time multi is saved with the plan/preset. So maybe it doesn't get updated after leaving AC.

Hey,
I fixed it. If you look at Sol's Discord Sever in the "pre-release" channel, you will find Sol 2.2.6. It also has the new controller, which has a "difficulty" slider for the new rainFX physics. It will generate less wetness with the very new CSP versions if wanted.

I will release Sol 2.2.6 end of the month, together with Pure 0.154....
