An almost €1.000 graphics card as recommended "solution"???
Wow, gift me one, and I will fix 10 tracks to be Tree_FX compatible, but for sure with workaround for the ones don´t being gifted...

Though I'm pretty sure you are just kidding, please don't start getting involved in that treeFX thing... it's bad, really bad.
In the state it is now it's one of the worst things you can add to AC.
Just tried latest one for Gnoo Blass. I have never ever seen trees like that IRL, nowhere. They look alien.
Quickly reverted back to the originals.
Until now - afaik - I have kept one treeFX update. It did look better than the origininal trees and for some reason it almost didn't impact fps, nor did I have weird shadows or popping.
And I keep trying them, some tracks don't even look real anymore because the wrong kind of trees were added...

"I only do hope the development will not be stopped because of some issues that can be solved or by upgrading your hardware" dude here has thrown the number one rule of making stuff out of the window : OPTIMISE UR ****.

No, don't optimise anything, buy a new card instead ! Some true Apple mentality lmao

Hey there,
if you dont remember me, Im the guy asking the windshield-banner questions
so, after the reflection issue could get solved with help of slider (and others),
here comes my new question, get ready:

can I (hopefully easy) adjust the windshield-banners transparancy?

like, if there was a possibility in the config ini to add some lines where I can adjust from 0 to 100 or something like that?
these lines are just for fun, as I have actually no idea how it would look in order to work

[MESH_ADJUSTMENT_...]
MESHES = Banner_int
MATERIALS =
IS_TRANSPARENT = 0.5

But maybe someone knows the correct lines? As always, appreciate your help and support!!
Regards
Dave

As I posted for you in PM,
what works is:

[MESH_ADJUSTMENT_...]
MESHES = Banner_int
MATERIALS =
IS_RENDERABLE = 0

IS_RENDERABLE:
0 = off, no, 1 = on, yes
No, nothing in between, sorry.

If you want to change it so that it is "half as transparent" as it was before, imo you have to change the corresponding *.dds file.
Correct me if I'm wrong...

 

[DaveZi1]

Thanks Slider,
yes off and on worked as you mentioned, just was looking for the steps in between, but again, if its not easy achievable, then I dont need this function

When I hear the word "Ferrari", soft and feminine shapes come to my mind... delicate waists, refined lips, proportioned behinds...

That car is like a fat lesbian trucker.

This is a great business model, build a new body shell for a retired GT3 racing car and charge a cool few million dollars for it.

Where does the ext_config file need to be put

Thanks


Looks like the Benetton download link has been removed from RD now if anyone has this one to please

Thanks

Go into the folder f302_jaguar_xjr-9_lm and create a new folder named extension, go inside this new folder and copy the ext_config.ini from the rar in it.

is_transparent is a flag meaning it only returns 0 or 1 (or true/false). same with is_active and so on


controlling level of transparency would be more to do with alpha channel of the texture

There are good and bad ones. Its like with the tracks configs or tracks themselfs. Those trees can look realy good. My favourite set is the one for Monza:

Tree fx for Monza - Updates

But there are people who throwing out many configs, which are not well made and not well optimized.

Just a quick response to Gnoo Blas.
Youre right, I ****** that one up.
Wasn't fully awake I guess🫠.
I'm reworking it right now to make it... less of... whatever it is right now.

Will be overhauled in a couple of (sweaty) hours.

Hi guys. anyone know how to resolve this issue with the RSS GT-m cars please? csp 1.80 and pure 1.90. cheers....

This is a great business model, build a new body shell for a retired GT3 racing car and charge a cool few million dollars for it.

Here in Spain we have a joke about this with the Abarth 595: they take a perfectly normal one, change the rims, paint it a new colour, put a fancy badge on it, add a couple thousand to the price and voila!, we have the "Weekly Special Limited Edition"... another one... And they sell them all! Those Italians are marketing geniuses...

And about the 3D Trees controversy...

... There are good and bad ones... Those trees can look realy good...

... for instance, in this updated track...

... Second - UPDATE

Indy Toronto...

... that not only is well optimized to don´t lose fps compared to the previous version, but in my case I've even gained a couple more. Despite I'm currently wary of 3D Trees due to usual drop in fps, it must be recognized that on a well-optimized track, as said, they can contribute a lot, but seems that implement it without lossing performance is only within the reach of a few chosen.

I dropped in to see what's going on and this is the first thing I see...

Yep, sorry... Instead of in the Wax Museum, that Alonso figure should be on display in the Museum of Horrors...

 

[MrHunt]

I have adjusted the colors of the car to the original, the result now looks truer and more saturated, just copy it into the skin folder, because of the mapping it seems impossible to paint the car, but the Jaguar logo and the purple should look nice, right?

Just copy it to the skin folder....profit

[edit]

Luckily Fiat/Abarth is less and less italian as time passes by, each and every season they grow some more comtempt for the country and move something abroad.

Some of us are fine with that.

It looks much better now, but can somehow remove the windshield tint?

Hi everyone, I found this 3d model for Ferrari 550 Maranello, in free version this has not textures, in the paid version the textures is included, maybe someone modder can bring it to AC for a public and free release?
Free version (no textures):https://wirewheelsclub.com/models/1...3w2sH5XjH8ZoqG8G0l1zPrUTMFB7hBddBiHeAPg5esVZ8

To fix this problem you should change driver model via ext_config (I don't know if it's the best fix, but at least it works)

Will be overhauled in a couple of (sweaty) hours.

OK, thanks for noticing.
I tried the new version and I must admit that these trees are much better. There's still the pretty heavy impact on FPS though:
Alone on track:
original: 114 fps AVG - 98 fps MIN
with treeFX: 89 fps AVG - 51.4 fps MIN
So for people with less performant PC's it would be near to impossible to race in a decent grid.
There must be some way to reduce the impact, since a couple of tracks don't seem to suffer from the addition of treeFX.

Feedback on performance is super important. From as many different systems as possible.
My releases alwasy start as a kind of a w.i.p. (see the version number), as I can only judge it from my side.

Im running a pretty beefy pc.
Using VR I get stable 90fps with nearly everything maxed out.

There will be progress for sure, also for less powerfull systems.

Every new Tree model I generate, needs to be balanced between looks and performance.
Sometimes its more difficult, sometimes its pretty straight forward.

As I said, Feedback ,not hate or other kinds of bs (not directed to you), is very welcome

Tree fx for Monza - Updates

www.racedepartment.com

But there are people who throwing out many configs, which are not well made and not well optimized.

While I agree that the trees for Monza look good (as long as there's no or little wind, because in the wind they start 'being alive' and parts of them vanish to just reappear), there's still the (huge) impact on fps.
Alone on track I get:
129 fps AVG / 116 fps MIN without treeFX
89 fps AVG / 71 fps MIN with treeFX
which I find quite substantial.
There is a solution, because I have one(or two ?) treeFX add-ons where the impact is very little. Can't remember ATM which track it is though.

@Johannes S I should have mentioned that I'm on a triple screen setup with a 1080ti, which after a recent upgrade gives me the possibility to race full grids on most tracks and still have good performance.

thank you!

thankyou for this. the only thing i found "wrong" was a weird double shadow effect. i am running csp 1.79 though so that may be it. the issue is not all the time on track only at certain points
