Assetto Corsa PC Mods General DiscussionPC

[Masscot]

all tracks will be publicly released once past beta stage. the new csp has caused an issue with some of the trees on some tracks. i've spoken to @shi before i started.

the plan is to release all the tracks in one go once of an acceptable standard so i can return to cars.

if any actual track modders wish to help speed up the process any help would be much appreciated.

just for the record the previous post clearly states:

Ah, I figured it must have been a mistake - thanks.
Was just a little concerned to see one of @shi's tracks behind a paywall, that was all.

I'm not familiar with the more recent versions of Pure, and with a recent re-entry I've been taking a look at this "Pure Planner".

I feel like an idiot - how does the Pure Planner works in tandem with Content Manager? I looked at it and assumed you select the "Pure" option in CM Drive under Weather, and then the standard preset in the Pure submenu. Everything does seem to be working, but not until the Pure planner is opened. It will not run automatically, and just show a static, identical track and ambient temperature until the planner is opened.

Is there no way to just have Pure weather launch on boot without any input? Is everything just controlled from the app in-game, and is launching the planner a requirement? And what is this "Direct to Pure" option that's greyed out? Is that what I'm looking for, and just not implemented yet?

Thanks to anyone who may know.

Works perfectly for me. I have Pure selected as Weather style under Weather FX settings, and from the Drive page Weather menu I've selected Controllers -> Pure Static.
With these settings I never have to touch Pure Planner.

I've never seen a "Direct to Pure" option, so I don't know what that is.

@DaWallace, a thin sliver of road can be seen through the carbon louvres on your Ford Mustang GT4 from the cockpit view, but can be fixed with:

[SHADER_REPLACEMENT_...]
ACTIVE = 1
MESHES = ext_carbon
CULL_MODE=DOUBLESIDED

The GT4 cars will get a complete overhaul, incl. new tyres, new shader & material settings, new extension config and so on. So this will be fixed then automaticaly. 😊

Here are some screenshots i borrowed from ChemFlummi, who is helping us on the GT4 cars:

Do you plan making a 2001/2002 Bentley EXP Speed 8 or the 2002 Panoz LMP which has different nose design?

I've never seen a "Direct to Pure" option, so I don't know what that is.

Yeah I believe I tried this Pure Static controller briefly, it gave the same result - static ambient and track temperature. And of course, Pure is indeed the controller in the CSP WeatherFX tab.

I'll have a look again.

EDIT: Still not working - ambient and track temp are static and 5C under what CM should designate them as. I'm going to try a reinstall of Pure.

The Direct to Pure option is a greyed out "P" in the Pure Planner. "C" is highlighted on the upper left, and is the only selectable "letter" of three possible letters. Direct to Pure is the last one. No idea what it does and whether it even works - read through the Readmes and couldn't find a thing.

Ah, no wonder I hadn't noticed that option, I rarely use Pure Planner for anything. But Pure Planner actually shows an explanation for it:

Hope you'll smooth the other GT models you converted eventually, I was eagerly waiting to see them all in AC someday.

Hey dude, talking about eagerly awaiting stuff, how's your suppa duppa big NASA PC coming along ? Ready to tackle on them big mods you've talked about ? It's been 4 years and some, it's time, I can't wait anymore !

 

[fleskebacon]

Thanks...

Alternative ext_config for @Masscot updated Interlagos 1975 track. It adds @Quikslvr rain_fx addition as well as a tweak to the light settings to have them turn on when it rains. I included the original config in case I screwed something up.

On another note, I tried the latest CSP and Pure versions last night (was still using 1.80preview9 and Pure 0.193) and the grass_fx looks really weird. Did something change with it in the latest CSP and\or Pure versions or has anyone else noticed a difference? It almost looked blue and was really bright. I'd post a pic, but I already went back to what I was using.

I think the latest csp has something weird and unpredictable going on with season adjustments, at least for me. Could that be it?

This bug is in almost all Reboot Team tracks

I already wrote I reported it.
Since the issue only showed up recently it may(or may not) be a CSP thing.
It may take some time to find a solution.

Thanks, but in fact, i am interesting in know how i could fix this, because others tracks, like glendale, the shadows are differents when the cars are over the road or over the groove, and here there are many modders, maybe someone know how to fix these shadows problems.

Are you sure it's not a CSP tickbox somewhere?
Here's RT Zolder, the car is casting shadows on the white lines for me.

yes, i am sure that is a problem with the track, i tested it without csp

choose another car, with the highest shock absorber and look under the car

Hi. Great work. Did I hear you are doing the Reynard 2KQ

Yes we are doing both the Reynard 2kQ and the Reynard 01Q variants. The first pack should be coming out soon. Final testing and model changes.

It might be a transparency issue with the white lines.
One further thought: tried toggling Fake Shadows FX on and off?

I testet with cps, without csp (vanilla), with fake shadows, changing values in 3dsimed... i cant fix that haha, i need help because in vr its awful this effect.

@Raphael87 @Mikke73 try adding this to the end of the Zolder config

[SHADER_REPLACEMENT_...]
ACTIVE=1
DESCRIPTION= shadows cast on white lines
MATERIALS= whitelines
BLEND_MODE = ALPHA_TEST
IS_TRANSPARENT = 0

It'll change the white line properties from alpha blend to alpha test and turn off transparency.
Seems to do the job.

You were right and I was wrong - it was a transparency issue. Thank you!

You should be able to use that config on other tracks that have the same problem, just grab the correct material name for the white lines using object inspector. It's 'whitelines' at Zolder, but I'm not sure whether we kept that same naming convention on other RT tracks.

It could be. I wish I would have grabbed a screenshot or made a little video to better explain it because it's hard to describe. All I know is grass in the areas directly in front of me are very bright, but off in the distance begin to look normal again. It was really noticeable on the long final straight at Nords. For now i'm just going to use the older Pure and CSP combo I was using because everything looked great. Eventually when a few more updates for both are released, i'll try again and see if it's been fixed. Thanks for responding.

Wow thank you for doing it, played Total immersion racing in my childhood, great memories. Will the bentley be a public release? And is the panoz also in development?

tried @Masscot code for Most and it fixes it there (just change MATERIALS):

DESCRIPTION= shadows cast on white lines
MATERIALS= lines3
BLEND_MODE = ALPHA_TEST
IS_TRANSPARENT = 0

I just checked all our tracks (hope I didn't forget one) and apart from Most and Zolder, none shows the issue...
