Assetto Corsa PC Mods General DiscussionPC

[X90]

Question for the car modders. What could make a specific ai car completely miss a high speed turn and slide right through it like they are not even seeing the ai line. It's not the ai line because all the other cars take the turn with no issue. I'm hoping it's something in the car's data.acd file that I can edit.

From my recollection, the IER P13C AI does this a lot. It will often ignore the line and slam right into the wall.

I assume it is something in data.acd, because as you mentioned, other cars will take the corner just fine. Perhaps there are no values assigned to an ai behavior .ini somewhere.

Sorry I can't be of more help, but what I can share from my experience you're on the right track. It is definitely something specific on a car-to-car basis.

Either a bad setup in the ai.ini or bad suspension settings causing this. If fixed that in this patch you can compare the fix with the original: https://www.mediafire.com/file/v0au...BA%29_better_AI_behavior_by_Rainmaker.7z/file

you know whether there is any chance to create previews for cars with that error?
CSP preview is not working with these cars

1. unpack data with CM and try again (delete data.acd).
2. if it fails, rename extension folder to something else like 1extension so that CM does not read the extension folder

Should work.

I just wanted to say thank you for NOT encrypting your Porsche 934.

I changed the car.ini slightly and found a FFB setting suitable for my personal taste and wheel setup.

All good now, wonderful car (it already was back at version 1).

Thanks again.

The car is based on a mod from GeroDa74, I adjusted the 3D model and physics at my own discretion. The mod is not historically accurate and was originally created for personal use.

Huge improvement over the GeroDa74 car - thanks.
No LOD D though?
If you are still working on it, a hangover from the original car is that the tacho needle isn't centred on its pivot, you can see the silver disc at the centre move off-axis as the revs increase.
Also, if you want to lower the passenger wiper start point (it sticks up a bit at the moment), add this to the wiper config:
GROUP_1_ANGLE_FROM = 12.0

My personal problem with CSP after installing that preview might have to do with my Linux install since it runs through Proton/Wine via Steam and I already had it before long ago after passing to Linux when my W11 install died by a bootloop from an update. Whenever I start a session or something else which loads AC, I get this error message.

I presume I may have to wait for a new CSP version to be released or maybe a hotfix for all of us Linux players, that last time a new CSP version was released which addressed this similar issue I'm getting with latest preview.

I don't think that Linux is really in the minds if it comes to bugfixes or updates. Actually there are so much other things. I would not wait for such things.

If i just think of the support for the casual windows user, Linux just multiplies the causes of crashes by 1000x.

Was it posted here yet? If yes sorry for double post. Another full release from historic sim studio, this time it is 1906 Renault AK GP.

[Fullnoise]

Yep. There is very little information on the TVR400R, and to make matters worse, those few existing cars are all different from each other.
😂

I'll start by saying that this is a WIP and I don't even know if I'll publish it one day. For now I'm trying to replace all the "borrowed" assets with those made from scratch with blender (for example the rims, I didn't understand how to convert the gtr2 ones). At first I converted it as grid filler, but then I started to love it more than I already loved it in gtr2.

My conversion is GTR2 but uses a lot of assets I don't have permission to distribute so I cannot release it publicly, but I can share the rims with you. I converted them from GTR2 so they are low poly but still look quite good.
I also use other rims to suit those used in 2004 ELMS:

Let me know if you want the 06 Peninsula OZ rims.

Thank you. Yes, lod D is nominally absent, but in fact it is there (lod C is in fact lod D, and lod B is in fact lod C), but it is lod B that is missing, which I consider useless. but in principle I can add it, but there will be practically no increase in productivity from it.
Regarding the tachometer needle, I know that it is a little crooked, I can try to correct it, but I can’t promise anything in advance.
Regarding the wipers, I don’t use them, I don’t drive in the rain (I did it just to be on the safe side), but if you think it’s better, I can fix it in the next version, if it’s released)

And a question, what is the name of the circuit used in the video?

Thanks, look forward to the update.
LoD B is normally pretty useful for performance, especially with big grids and tight packs.
Even if you don't actually use the wipers, the config addition I posted will mean that the passenger-side wiper will have a better resting position at the base of the windscreen.

Oz, thank you in advance. 😎

I aim to create everything from scratch as I said before, but I don't always succeed. I'm quite satisfied with the headlights, tail lights and the tank area, but the rest doesn't convince me.

Either a bad setup in the ai.ini or bad suspension settings causing this. If fixed that in this patch you can compare the fix with the original: https://www.mediafire.com/file/v0aubajk0j7po5i/Mercedes-Benz_AMG_One_2021_v0.92_%28MNBA%29_better_AI_behavior_by_Rainmaker.7z/file

Thanks for the info. Could be a little of both. I had some success making it better by reducing the GAS_BRAKE_LOOKAHEAD value from 10 to 0 (the other cars I compared it to had this at 0). They still run off the track from time to time, but not every time like before. I'll also compare suspension files to see if I see anything there.

BTW, i've seen the TRAIL_HINT value vary widely between different cars. The ones that seem to work the best have it at 1, others have it really low, like 0.29. Do you know which is better, higher or lower?

 

[Masscot]

A few tweaks to an old classic, coming soon...

 

[24H]

1. unpack data with CM and try again (delete data.acd).
2. if it fails, rename extension folder to something else like 1extension so that CM does not read the extension folder

Should work.

no chance with these cars. Tried both ways

Thanks mate.

CSP 0.1.80-preview428 appears to have solved a lot of annoying issues for me.
Daylight headlights seem resolved and it's great to finally have the ghost back, but the biggest improvement is in stability. For quite a while now I've had frequent loading issues, often resulting in a meaningless and misleading 'GPU may have overheated or be overclocked' message, even from a cold boot. Plus, I was getting a lot of random hard crashes out on the track, with a frozen screen and unresponsive task manager, necessitating a risky power-button PC reboot. All of those issues seem to be fixed now.
Fingers crossed..!

 

[alexlockout]

If you are still working on it, a hangover from the original car is that the tacho needle isn't centred on its pivot, you can see the silver disc at the centre move off-axis as the revs increase.

I think I corrected the tachometer needles, and the speedometer too (it was also crooked, it just moved slowly, and the curvature was almost not noticeable). If it’s not difficult, test it, is it so well centered? Regarding the lod, I’ll do it when I have more time. Thank you.

428 is pretty good except for the blurring of the tree textures. I haven't been able to figure out what new option he added to fix\disable that effect because it looks terrible.

Nice one! The tacho is still a tiny fraction off but you'd need to be looking very hard to spot it, whereas it was very obvious before. Makes a big difference - thanks!

Another chance, install these cars manually and not with CM. I sent you a PM.

I don't have experimented with that TRAIL_HINT value yet.

There was a weird glassy/holographic effect in VR when some trees overlapped previously, which now seems fixed. Might be related to that.

That's possible. When I have more time this weekend, i'll dig deeper or just ask for help on discord. For now, i'm just using an older version until I can figure it out.
