Assetto Corsa PC Mods General DiscussionPC

[racinjoe013]

A small Bridgehampton mod I threw together for myself last night because the sand areas were nuclear on my system. Could be ppfilter related, but I figured i'd share it none the less in case anyone else feels the sand areas are too bright as well. It's nothing more than some shader adjustments in the ext_config and a few optional skins, which i'll explain in a minute. All the shader adjustments are at the bottom of the config in the SHADER STUFF section so you can adjust anything I changed to better fit your eye. If you already have a extension folder in your track directory, you can copy the shader stuff section into your existing ext_config file instead of using the one I provided. I'm not even sure where the one I used came from. I just added my changes to it.

I kept all the skins in separate categories so you can pick and choose what you want to use. If you find a combo you like, just lump them all into one folder so you only need one skin active at a time.

Skins description:
-- Grass - simply adds a little more green tint to the grass.
-- Sand skins - darkens the sand areas even more beyond the shader adjustment. Each Sand skin just gets progressively darker as per the skin names.
-- Trees - takes some of the highlights out of the bright areas on the tree leaves.

Sorry for the quick update on this one, but I noticed something tonight I never noticed before. There is an American flag on the flagpole at the s\f line that rendered black because it had ambient and diffuse values of 0. I adjusted the values so that it showed properly and while I was at it, made it animated. If for some reason you don't like the animated flag, simply delete the FLAG STUFF section at the bottom of the ext_config file. It will bring back the static flag with the adjusted shader values so it doesn't render black.

Can someone make a mod that is not LM for Jaguar XJR9 or 12,14 LM There is only LM specification, isn't it?

I want a sprint spec

I noticed that when the lights are turned on, the daytime running lights get brighter. To avoid this, just set the last value of the COLOR line as that of the OFF_COLOR line. Furthermore, by playing with the values of the COLOR line, following the RGB codes, you can change the color of the daytime lights. However, I can't understand which value to change to change the color of the light beam of the lights.
It's a good mod, the only thing the GT3s have is ABS, while this one doesn't. It should be implemented if anyone wants to.

RGB = red, green, blue
Decimal Colour Range = from 0 to 255 for each

In the example above: (red) 300, (green) 280, (blue) 50 (and 5 = intensity level). So, for the purpose of adjusting the mods' daylights - just reduced the intensity value only.

note: unsure of in-game effects should the decimal value exceed 255...

other examples:
255,255,255 = white
255,0,0 = red
0,255,0 = green
0,0,255 = blue
128,128,128 = grey
0,0,0 = black

Take a look at colour-table charts in wikipedia...

Web colors - Wikipedia

en.wikipedia.org

some sample tables...

Have a play with the decimal values to reach your sweet-spot (colour, that is).


Edit:
To alter the colour/intensity for the headlights - also within the ext_config file...

View attachment 1306901There is an unfinished project, maybe someone will be interested. The LC2 model from Velo was taken as a basis.

I don't have time to deal with it yet. And I don’t know when I’ll return to him. Maybe someone more experienced will be interested in him and soon we will see a replenishment in the Group С.

Speaking of Ferrari,I created a mix, of the Velo, Shokeu's and modbase versions, for the F430 GT2, with some lighting, lod replacement, among others...If anyone happens to have this car in a better version, please let me know. There are other things missing, but the most necessary thing would be to separate the meshes from the wipers, why I don't know...

There are also strange reflections on the windshield, I think they are due to the skins, if you know any solution, I would appreciate it
(the folder was created as gt3, but the model and some skins, along with the gt2 physics)

As it is an old mod, and free, I imagine we could improve it, not just to fill the grid...

Good afternoon
Well, after much research and elaboration, I discovered that there are 3 models of this car, all with skins that don't fit together, and another, with similar physics.
However, I provide a download link here for anyone who wants to help or discuss these changes.

I tested it against cars RSS GT-N, Gallardo GT2, BMW M3 GT2 kunos, DW Ultima, Vertigo and Marcos, and apparently, it balanced well.

Hello,

I've made some changes to the Mazda Furai.
Took the mod from ACTK (original author unknown, modified by Zipper and Velo).
Took the sound from backfisch2000's version released on RD.

Made physics changes to approach the real specs of the best : 377 Nm, 450 HP@9900 ; 675kg. Two final ratios (top speed 290km/h or 340km/h)
Added VAO, dash light plus minor shader's value changes.


Can I upload the full car in the download section ?
Or should I upload only the changes ?

 

[lorelord]

If you say you don't care about it anymore, it's abandonware. No sense in denying that if what happens to it is self-admittedly none of your concern. You blew off the community member who asked you to repack it, so I don't see what's wrong with letting someone who actually cares about it do it for you. You're not going to be using it or doing anything with it anyways.

Did you ever ask anyone who made the RFactor mods you port if you could before you put them up on your patreon, or the creators of all the road cars or otherwise you were basing your "GT1" cars off of before you abandoned those? I'm going to assume you didn't either.

you seem rattled which wasnt my intention. calling the car an NPC was by no means meant to suggest you yourself lack a soul.

if you feel so strongly about this car i suggest you learn to edit the kn5 as to make the small physical fixes (aerial, clamsp etc) required

also with its extensive racing history surely itd make more sense as to paint some actual real-life skins rather than fantasy ones

the above would warrant a repack/rehost.

what has been done so far should ideally be collated and sorted with a quick update patch.

but either way the work is appreciated

I almost missed this long-awaited Fenix 30-6 Chinook by Ryno917 on Race Department.
It's a lovely little lightweight sports car that's a lot of fun to chuck around.

2023 Fenix 30-6 Chinook

After only 3 and a half years of on and (mostly) off work, with a helluva lot of support from several people, I’m finally ready to unleash this little beast on the world. An antidote to the modern automotive industry, the 2023 Fenix 30-6 Chinook...

www.racedepartment.com

The original driver fits the car perfectly, but in VR the fairly straight-arm steering posture feels to me like the driver is slightly stretching for the steering wheel, especially while steering, which with VR's psychosomatic effect can make you feel like you're stretching for the steering wheel in your cockpit. I did a quick driver swap/reposition to stop my arms from aching, so VR users might want to give it a go. There's a new shifting animation included too (which clips through the gearknob slightly), necessary with the new driver posture. To me it all subjectively feels more natural in VR. I was in two minds whether to share this as it's completely subjective and could be argued 'less correct', but no files are altered, only replaced, and the original steer.ksanim, shift.ksanim, and driver_base_pos.knh are included as backups for easy reversal - just delete the new ones and remove the '.original' extensions from the originals.

Has anyone made a stock version of the legendary 993 GT2? I know there is some kind of racecar versions available (at least for GTR2) but is there a stock version for AC? 993 Carrera 2 and 993 Turbo have amazing conversions but I don't know if there's a good GT2 available. This was the rear wheel version of the Turbo with lightweight adjustments.

I was tempted to buy the real one but eventually I just passed. (joke)

Yes : https://modsfire.com/download/TLkPUQDZhfNCa2o/10180

Note : ain't an ACTK mod even if he slaps his name on it. Idk who the OG modder is.

Amazing. Thanks. That is the GOAT Porsche. First ever GT 911.

Good morning

How do I view this table?
I'll need to check out other mods in my collection...
Tks

in CM content - cars , at the bottom you will find an "Analyze" button (if not you need to enable Developer Mode - check here on how to do this)

On AssettoHub there's a version 2.3 that is the same foldername as the one on ACTK garage's v1.1,
folder name "porsche_993_gt_lg7"
and it's attributed to AD, Steve Stirpe, Buja G & WSS

so I guess that is the one to go for (and you can add the LOD's from ACTKs or make some yourself if needed).


I also have a 1995 Porsche 993 911 GT2 EVO in my AC collection, v2.2 by Steve Stirpe/ Buja.G w car folder name "porsche_993_gt_evo"
it has 603 bhp instead of 430 , and got a different set of rims...
(no download link though and no idea where i got it and if I'm allowed to share it here)

 

[Apocalypse211]

Thanks. This community is the best.

Actually the last versions of GT2 (model year 1998) had 450 hp. Théy installed Turbo S engines into it.

Now those performance figures (top speed 300 km/h and 0-100 km/h 3.8/3.9s) aren't anything that special but they must have been out of this world back in the 90's.

Got a problem with the sounds in ac, huge lack, pressing gas the sound follows like a half second late, anyone got any ideas what's the problem? Using latest patch and that issue is driving me crazy (....if possible) .

Nevermind this, found the cause, my hdmi-cable giving the issues when using 120hrz, dropping it to 60 and all is good, gotta have a better cable.

 

[FeherDenes]

I have a question to someone who has worked with kers/ers in ac before:
Is it possible to have KERS (as in you have to press a button to activate it) in a way where it can only activate above a given speed? And if so, how?
Thanks in advance if anyone can answer that
(I have a feeling it's the ATTACH line in kers.ini should be set to wheels but i couldn't quite figure out how it works. Also tried with a controller but couldn’t get it working)

dont know why but I dont have any brake lights for the 458 GT3

 

[JK1977]

I think you should focus more on quality then quantity. No offense, but all of your latest previewed cars really do lack of proper details, like smoothed meshes, curves etc. Look at the fenders or the roofline of the BMW.

Here the Guerilla mods GT2:

yep your right,I won't continue with the BMW VGT either


This car looks a lot better

 

[Fall Guy]

Why´s that difference? I mean, the source you have got is the same, right?

I don't know, it's because of the models, some seem to be better
the Jaguar Gr3 is like the Nissan R34 GT500 99 or the Corvette Gr4
the worst is the Mustang GR3

My very infrequent contribution to AC modding below:

1. A fictional six-car skin pack for @JK1977 (F302's) Lamborghini Gallardo ST which didn't have any.

Initially inspired by having these liveries, they look awesome btw! 👍 Then realised I didn't have the mod, and could not find it... Not on this thread or the usual places...

Then a kind & humorous member of this community @Perico Lospa found it @ assettoworld - thanks for doing that. 👍

Btw: that name is way too long, so CM doesn't record 'total driven' and 'speed achieved' data.
Iirc 32 characters is the max...

And then, like Fana did, realised the file-name was ridiculously too long and was missing out on the lap time stats within CM, etc...

After tinkering with it for a while - as we do here - remade a new version that is now CM compatible - hence we now have lap time results...

Took it on the Las Vegas Boulevard strip to test it's top speed and got 290km/h out of it before running out of road on turn 14.

Also took a quick look at the body map for some potential liveries to be made and found that it's a rather complex and crappy layout - see for yourselves... Kudos to @MisterWaffles for taking on the job and sharing his fictional liveries!

Currently in the process of attempting to do same but keeping them simple for the time being... And a bunch of stock colours which are easier to do of course.

Who would have thought that a spag-bowl could look like this.

Work remains WIP and really hope to deliver before Xmas.

For those who are 'purists' like me, I share a small pack for Sergio Loro´s Formula Juniors Cars. What is inside?

• Real Badges and names for all the cars (Stanguellini, Mitter and Elva)
• Real pilots

Even though most of the liveries don't really match the ones the drivers used in the races, I think this is a good way to give the races a 'real touch', as I doubt anyone will make real skins for these cars. But the drivers are in the cars they actually used in the races (that is, whoever drove a Mitter, has their name on the Mitter, and etc.)

The names portray some of the drivers who raced between 1959/60 in European Formula Junior races. The same goes for the Mecanica Nacional Argentina skins: all the car names depict drivers who actually competed in single-seaters races in the country, between 1960/62.

So since our dear friend Peter Crill isn't going to update the cars in alpha and beta state from last year I decided to take a stab at one that deffo should've been released - the MX5 Super20. And there's a lil problem with the speed tach : the needle goes in the wrong direction.

The faster you go, the slower it goes on the tach. Where could I edit it so it goes in the right direction ? Never encountered that bit before lol.

So since our dear friend Peter Crill isn't going to update the cars in alpha and beta state from last year...

There is an effort underway to address this, but it will be slow progress. Some WIP cars have also been released by other modders in the meantime, so those ones probably could wither on the vine.

For some reason the wiper fix you did for the tc_legends_mg_a_race doesn't work (at least not for me).
Any ideas please ?
