Does anyone happen to have the fictional group c car that was on RD but has now been taken down? I did mean to download it but only just got round to looking this morning and it's gone. It's called the TRD DRW12. It looks like it had some user issues and was then pulled.

About the 1952 Ferrari 500. Folks over at Revival Racing League (@Obi-Wan Kannabis) with Historic Sim Studios have really made a jewel, model-wise. WAY too many polys, so it's awks to work with (CM showroom will open once, off a fresh AC launch. Second is a CM CTD). But man! It is pretteeeee. And it has aggressive LODS, and is unencrypted.

Fizixs are pretty tame and generic (likely bolstered by period opinion that it was a dog-simple, placid, workman-like car). Needed a sound jigger (Porsche flat-4, really?), and Driver 1955 from @MR Malarkey on RD.

Anyhoo. Slowlee-slowee-catchee-monkee working on some period skins from the (surprising amount of) available images. Given the talk of poly reduction, I hope this isn't a time waste.

Meet 1952 British Grand Prix winner (and World Chamion Driver), Alberto Ascari.

No way it's going to be a waste of time! This car is superb!

The good thing is that the Tipo 500 raced in so many championship and non-championship races in the early 50´s that there is a plenty of options for the skins. I´m hoping especially for the privateers (P.S. I know it´s so wrong to like a Ferrari F1/F2 car without it being red kkkkk)

Why it was striked on RD?
 
Moving along with it... 3 tests (Laguna Seca, Sebring, Spa) to narrow the field of cars to use for GT3 ai-opponents ("grid-fillers" seems derogatory, like they don't matter, but they so do). Definately differences in performance at the different tracks, but the same fast cars are up top or thereabouts. I X'd six cars (they've not been excavated from my system of course) that were likely not to be competitive no matter what. Horsepower bumps are only good in moderation since a bad handling car only gets worse. (aero, yup) I set up a sixteen car field next...

30car-TEST-Laguna-Sebring-Spa-RESULTS-marked.jpg

The pace of several cars changed quite... perhaps the cars that didn't deal with 29 ai opponents well before now gain more from the smaller field... I bumped up hp on both of the M4s to get some life out of them. Seems to have worked.
16car-TST2-Laguna-Sebring-Spa-RESULTS.jpg

I did one more set of tests, having added the LPDesign Mustang and Alfas just to see how they go... (I added an air restriction of 3 to the URD Corvette cuz it needed it.)
19car-TEST3-B-Laguna-Sebring-Spa-RESULTS.jpg
  • the LPDesign stuff is quite beautiful, but is encrypted in some way that won't allow editing power.lut (whether ticking "use unpacked data" or re-packing it breaks the encryption and turns out the penrose triangle mash.). So I like the mustang but I cancelled my subscription due to encryption. The stang needs 5-10% more power, or it's a 15th place car forever. (the field will be CSP BOP'd to fine tune it after this, then doubled for 2 car teams.)
  • was cool to hear that ford american muscle up against the RC F, as it was similarly growly.
  • next I'll CSP BOP. I'll post the times of the final BOP'd grid (~= 32 cars) later.
In case you didn't see the previous post, the (bracketed bit) in the name field is the creator and horsepower for that car. Only a few were .lut power bumped, but way ago. Not just for this test.

You may draw whatever conclusions you wish from this, of course! We're all looking for different things :) Some of us think we found something. Others meh...

I added a dl-able of the 3 tests so you can see them. (Sorry! I'm in 4k... they look good on my screen.)

In CM, under post-processing antialiasing, what's a good choice to use for Mode and Quality if I have an Nvidia 3060ti? I've never understood the different options and which is the best choice to balance quality with performance. Could use a little advice. Could also use some suggestions on the other options in that section as well. Things like the FidelityFX options, etc. Should I be using them if I have an Nvidia card?

Thanks for any tips...

I would go with the sharpest Intel CMAA that's there, along with the "extra sharpen" checkbox. It's by far the best solution, and really cleans up dashboard and interior edges well. Shouldn't be more than a very minor performance penalty.

I would not use the FidelityFX CAS sharpening. It has this weird, grainy resolve that makes cars like the Formula RSS3 look very strange. Just stick with CMAA and whatever MSAA you can afford in AC settings.

CM is using FSR 1.0, so do not use FidelityFX Super Resolution unless you absolutely must. It looks terrible. And the TAA is not a native implementation, so it looks quite blurry to me. I passed on that as well.

Hi @shi , great work as usual
I know you are not the original modder but Golden Valley is a reference (a pun) on the actual "Circuit du Val d'Or "
It was used by Citroen and other brands for testing .
The surrounding of the track are different in GTR2 / assetto but the shape of layout is the same

Arrêt de l'activité des stages de pilotage

it is now called Circuit de Versailles-Satory and there is a project to revamp it

Thanks for letting me know.

Thank you for the info. For CMAA, which quality setting do you use?

Here is my tip on this what’s the best adjustment, because there are so many different hardware it’s for everyone different. My adjustments on a old rig with VR, needs a complete different adjustment then a highend rig & 27” 4k monitor user. Then there is also your personal taste like achieving a stable FPS or in my case get rid of shimmering I do hate.

Read this: tweakguides and lots of info on the guru3D forums guru3D further from my favorites map at: https://stepmodifications.org/wiki/Guide:NVIDIA_Inspector
https://www.pcgamingwiki.com/wiki/Nvidia_Profile_Inspector
I know its about Nividia profile inspector but it’s also contain lots of general info. Because I still think you have to know what you are doing, what the effects are from all those adjustments and is it worth.

Determine what you dislike, as I hate graphical artifacts like shimmer and jaggies. So with the info I have I’m trying all the specific adjustments on that aspects and see what the effects are.

My test object is btw your improved SPA’66 and the Aston Martin Ulster (ACTK site).
I only doing a static test in the pit not a test drive. While in cockpit view I can see all kind of graphical defects that become better/worser, near and at the distance. The AM Ulster is btw a very good car to test as its louvres and front windshield frame are very prone to jaggies.
After finishing that I’m doing a race to check FPS using the CM statistics app.
If being satisfied store your CM pre-selection (video and CSP) settings and make printscreens of your Nvidia settings.

One important thing, if not seeing any improvements from a certain setting I disable this, why using if it only cost you precious FPS. So concentrate on the clear to see improvements setting and skip those maybe setting.

As being a non English speaking person it’s maybe a bit fuzzy writing, sorry for this.

I use CMAA with ultra setting, FidelityFXCAS ticked as well. You also should not use Assetto´s anisotropic filtering, set this to off and use the Nvidia profile inspector option to 16x instead. It´s a huge difference.

Just a dumb question about le grand/le mans, @racinjoe013 , are all the extra files here on GTP already included in the latest track version?




On another front, this is just me when trying on one of those baaaadly done Camtool files.
You guys know, the incredibly bad ones. Those and some Kunos replays like the Monza ones. Ugh.

Not sure what extra files you are referring too, but everything I did for the track is included in the download package. If there are other files on GTP that other people added, then they wouldn't be in the package.

And for the guys\gals who answered my graphical questions, thank you all for the info.

I mean your own extension tweaks and the "Shader-Fix-a-Rama v3.2 by Rainmaker" linked on breathe's list.
Thanks for the info.
