Way to ruin a perfect track...

Yeah, 3D trees almost always look like giant houseplants to me, and the saturation and contrast rarely match the rest of the environment.

Yeah, 3D trees almost always look like giant houseplants to me, and the saturation and contrast rarely match the rest of the environment.

And in rain (day and especially night) they look even worse.
On top of that most of the 3D 'planters' use the wrong kind of trees, even deciduous trees where there should be coniferous and vice versa.

Please delete previous versions and do a clean install!

DW Ultima GTR v0.6

Changelog:

• added V8 Chevrolet engine version
• closed gap between door and cockpit
• new tyres
• reworked suspension
• reworked material and shader settings
• reworked engine power and gears
• optimised AI behavior
• changed to correct sequential shift/gearbox

Let me first say that these cars are great to drive. 👍

I'm a bit confused about the Ultima versions.
They both have the same top speed (294km/h) and set the same lap times.
Despite the Chevy powered version having 240bhp more and 60kgs less weight (going by the numbers in the car ui) ?

 

[Stommelen_lh]

hello, is there a Matra MS630? Thank you

It depends. There's a VERY GOOD model of the short tail from 1967 converted by the great ABSLM 1960s LM Mod for GTR2, but if you look for the long tail you must ask to MrLonguinha17 which is refining it among many others at the moment. You can find it in his latest Matra pack in any case, not the best quality but still better then not having it at all...

I hope he respects the readme file Fat-Alfie includes with his tracks

Way to ruin a perfect track

100% agree. There are many, many tracks that need help. This is NOT one of them.

VW Nivus TC 2000 Next Gen. Onboard in Autódromo San Nicolás.

Nice to see these cars getting some proper modding and love. Past mods have been a bit hit and miss from my experiences.

Yes, that's right. I need to rework/optimise the V8 version a bit more on handling and power, to get a better feeling about the difference against the M3 3.2L version.
I'm already working on another update for the cars, because i found an issue on the glowing brake discs and some other minor things in extension config. So i will try if i can add some better and more different feeling, handling (power) and some endurance lights, like seen in the pictures, to the V8 version.

 

[Smurth]

Some tracks are worth the upgrade, but Fat Alfie took a lot of time working on unique 2d Trees to make them fit with the rest of the track and so I feel this is like painting over the Mona Lisa. 15 seconds into this video there is a tree overhanging growing onto the track, kind of the opposite of the care that was taken to build it originally.

I'm not here to totally slag 3d Trees being used as there are many good examples, but in my own opinion top tier like Fat Alfie do not need this treatment and are detrimental to the atmosphere of the track.

Amen.

I don't think you're missing anything; 3D trees are usually a poorly implemented, resource-hungry beast... that often look cartoonish, plus.

(Yes, I don't like 3D trees... to date.)

In fact, with proper lightning, 2D trees generally look really good ; assuming appropriate shader values are used.

As far as I'm concerned, I've had a great time with the previous TC2000 and STC2000 models. I'm very grateful to the modders because I can drive cars from the Argentinian categories in assetto corsa and that's something I didn't think possible before.

Speaking of the 2d trees,
do we have somewhere a good retexture for the Kunos tracks one? Nearly all look very washy and outdated

DW BMW Z4 M Coupé GT3 v1.7

Several problems on the BMW, the rear tires are in the ground, the RADIUS in tyres.ini must be too small, the collider.kn5 does not match the car at all, the outside mirrors must not be in the COCKPIT_HR.

A friend (who is very shy about posting them himself ) creates functional pitlanes (AIs now return to the pits and refuel).

• htrs_chayka

Do you have any links? I'd like to try some good mod versions of them.

Totally agree. The only problem with 2D trees is the godawful low-re cartoony textures that are sometimes used, normally when just ported across from the ancient track source like GPL or GTR, or when the textures are mirrored down the length of the trunk, creating spooky faces.
Properly-done 2D trees can look fantastic.

 

[Ale2Passos]

They are mods that have been in my library for some time and the truth is I don't remember exactly where I found them, plus I don't know who the authors are, but let me get home this afternoon and I'll be happy to share them.

I feel the same way. They always take too much attention, and don't blend with the scenery at all.

Sounds maybe strange, but what was wrong with the original pitlanes ? (Don`t have any problems in mind, but can`t remember everything because of the sheer amount of tracks

Good morning.
These days the "Matra" pack will be renewed with possible improvements in textures/shadows (made by our companion MrHunt) as well as details in the "DATA" folder with new changes and a better "Bop" compared to other cars of the time .

I'm finishing tests at LeMans 1974 with other cars.But without a doubt this Matra made by him is excellent.
You could even use it to adapt the models of other possible Matras (using this model as a base).
But for now I won't change anything. The sound of the V12 engine (it's also very good).

 

[Ant78]

I feel the same way. They always take too much attention, and don't blend with the scenery at all.

The biggest problem I have with 3D trees, not only do I think they look horrendous, they kill performance with regards to VR, and this is the only way I race.

I have some amazing tracks, ruined and unplayable due to the trees

Like they were done at Sainte-Croix and Bannochbrae.

There is also a decent model of a Matra MS650 longtail on the following link, if there is anyone interested: https://www.racedepartment.com/threads/matra-ms650-work-in-progress.218328/page-4 (its a patreon link, but its free).

If an update is in the works for the BMW, can you please look at the black glass borders to the front and rear windscreens? There's a weird dirt texture on the borders that looks quite odd.

Hi, I share my second "mod".
It is a recreation of what a 2024 GP would be like on the Santa Fe street circuit (Argentina). It is an update of Skins with current billboards and 3D trees. Works with the 2019 variant (not included in the link). Greetings.

Anyone noticed random damage happening on random AI cars on pit exit on the good old Reboot/THR Interlagos '75?

Oh, and there's a "asrl_interlagos_75_V1.2" in Breathe's list.
T21's?

How to turn on lights? The race is at 5 Pm in the twilight. and I dont get any light from the posts!

 

[Daniel Graf]

I already posted this in the decal search section, but did get no answer. Maybe better luck here.

yet another decal I am searching for

The car has a sticker on the left side of the Yokohama sticker on the side skirts.
Car is: IMSA GT Sebring 12H 1994, Mark Sandridge #49, GTU, chassis 6081

Does anybody know this brand?

Thanx in advance.

RSS cars and rain
Just noticed today that my RSS cars open seat i.e. 1979 v8 and the RSS Formula 4 cars, when driving in the rain, the drivers visor does not have rain drops on them. Is there a way to do this ? I have emailed RSS and they responded by saying :-
Thanks for your query. Unfortunately, this would be something to redirect to the CSP developers. Generally, skinned meshes do not get rain applied to them, but as we are using a standard Kunos driver here, it is up to the CSP developers to implement those features.

Any help gratefully appreciated

Regards

Mark
