Assetto Corsa PC Mods General DiscussionPC

[BruceD]

Hello, hope you're all doing well.

This topic kept me 'busy' in a sense that I tried exploring further possibilities on the NVidia driver front.
Been able installing the Quadro variant of NVidia driver (NV560.76) on my GTX 1060 6G yesterday (Yes, with hack this is possible).

Not completely sure yet (am testing), but this Quadro one seems even slightly better than previously installes SD 560.70.
(Quadro drivers are/were supposed to generate enhanced colors due to 10bit, but many say this is just placebo/snake-oil)
Anyway, keepers for now. Just to let you know. Some might find this useful, like myself.

Have a good day all.

I find this quite a fascinating discovery. Being in the architecture industry I know that Autodesk recommends the Quadro cards for their software, particularly Revit, and I have always found them to overpriced and seriously underperforming. So I find it interesting that you can get extra performance from their drivers.

I've had to convince a few companies over the years that, despite what Autodesk tells you, a "gaming" PC offers far superior performance and speed when working with 3d programs than a workstation does, and the Quadro cards were as useful as door stops as they were graphics cards. 🤣

i find in 2024, changing drivers is not worth the effort, you cant notice the at max maybe 1 to 2% difference. back in the old days of 3dfx cards in 1998 or whatever it was, driver versions could make a big difference. but now it is mostly about graphics settings that you select. i just upgraded my nvidia 2060 driver first time in 2 years and notice zero difference in performance anywhere.. except for cyberpunk 2077, but that is just a terribly optimised game.

Hi All,

After a few updates, for like a year or more the cars alignment between Content Manager Preview/Showroom and In-Game is very very different. I know my way around allignment over suspension.ini via CM, by eye and reverse math I can get a proper allignment in-game but yeah this time previews are messy and some cars looks like a stork.

If anyone has any idea about the source of this issue I really appreciate it.

Best&Thanks

The group C car. I believe is a Jaguar looks great also.

 

[TURBOMATIZ]

If you join RSS discord you will get to see the teasers . Theyve got more cars in the works too , Cadillac v series , bmw m4 gt3 more group c . Apparentley they plan to do all the gt3s aswell.

I think that's XJR-12.

Oh look, more of the same cars we already have in the game. When are these big studios going to come up with new stuff we haven't seen 10 million times over already? 🙄

More excited about the W196 tbh, it's been almost a decade since the last officially released high fidelity 50s f1 car

GT3 are very popular so they deliver. For me, i was expecting a RSS 720s and a RSS Ferrari 296 for months.
I cant wait the rss quality modding, especially after testing their last lamborghini, mercedes an audi GT3.

I'm not so keen of URD, or other free mod for this stuff, i always finding that they lacking something : sometimes it's a good 3d model, or the sound, or continuous updates etc

I'd like to see a full F1 1978 grid by them! That would be some spectacular thing. And...cash cow for RSS :-)

Logbook - every now and then I should keep you updated on the work

1) I finally finished the graphics part of the Z3 by creating both the 24h and GTR packages (you can choose via ext_config). Now I'm rebuilding the inside, it's a mess but I can do it.

2) The work on the TVR is temporarily stopped, I want to continue with the Z3 now that I feel motivated to do so.

3) I think the Ford GT is still in the works, I still haven't heard from the guy I'm working with. Let's be patient, I'm sure a nice little gem will come out.

4) The viper has been permanently blocked since the DW one came out.

5) The F430 needs the dashboard, physics and good sound. I fixed some shaders compared to the last time and for now I think that graphically it can be considered finished. Perhaps only the animations deserve a touch up.

I attach some screens. I'm not the fastest at working, but I'll do my best. And please, drink always lots of water.

 

[Gregz0r]

Awesome! An under-represented car, as are most from the late-Group C era(1990-1992).
Here's hoping for an eventual XJR-14, Peugeot 905, Mercedes C11, Toyota TS010 & a final Porsche 962 variant.

I agree, but i like trying things. Might I get back to GRD drivers after all.

You may be (or are) right, but I like to try stuff. Especially since P. Boese directed me to the Studio driver. Quadro might not be it, but I'll want to see in the long run.

Exactly my point, if they did stuff nobody has done they would coin it so big they could retire to a remote island, and we would have the cars we all really want.

 

[Foresight]

Plenty. AI not pitting in various events, AI turning into the pitlane wall on starts, and many more.

The absolute worst one, though[...]

I was thinking that i'm the only one who got issues with the last csp.
For me, the 0.2.3 is OK but then, every next versions screw up the AI.

It's a pity because i can't use the VRC F1 2024 csp and the RSS porsche lmdh.

 

[Quikslvr]

For those for whom the Viper does not work, I have created a new data.acd to test if i fixed it. Simply copy and replace this data.acd in the viper car folder -> assetto corsa/content/cars/dw_dodge_viper_competition_coupe

Let me know if this works for you.

Yes, it works! Many thanks. What a fantastic car -- handles like a dream. Out of curiosity, what was the source of the problem?

try this. Delete .txt

Still no luck...appreciate your trying, though.

Addon Layout for Antalya Autodrome by Shin956 just drop in track folder

www.gtplanet.net

a small update of the skin, nothing significant, just a small adjustment of the sizes of elements, for greater similarity with the original. in principle, you don't have to download it, but if you are a perfectionist like me, you will have to update)

Guys, is there an easy fix for a car that's not centered in cm preview?

The little formula car (second from the left) will be the Mygale M21-F4!

Mygale - Wikipedia

en.wikipedia.org

The old RSS4 mod was the previous Mygale F4 car (the first generation of F4 cars), called Mygale M14-F4.

So it wil be a "new RSS4" car.

Just wanted to share a couple of skins for gtsupreme group c 80 cars. These are from 1985 lemans race. Some sponsor decals are just really hard to source so I just had to get as close as I could.

Bussi Racing Rondeau m382 #39 and
Porsche 956 1985 Barclay #10​

Hopefully the modders do more group C and Can-am monsters

Was already part of the mod, a part GTSupreme never bothered to convert (along with the fin and other parts) lol. But cool to see it nonetheless

In Content Manager's showroom used for previews, the data hasn't been read and applied yet.
In game, of course, it always has. That's the visual difference.

CM has a handy checkbox in the Car tab of the parameter panel (second from right, single car), under Wheels, labelled "Align using data". Checking this box will apply the car's data to the 3D-model in the showroom. Annnnd right below that is a button to "Update model". CM will make a backup of the KN5 and rewrite it with the effects of the data.acd applied. Be careful here. I always make a independent copy of the unmolested KN5 before doing this. Belts and braces.

One more thing to do. Doing this can often mess up the shadows around the car, so again, CM has a button, this time in the main tab of the parameters panel (first from left, left arrow icon). Under "Tools", you'll find "Update amient shadow". Click, and an "Ambient shadow" panel opens, with a bunch of settings which allow you to control HOW to update. Choose your poison I've always accepted the defaults with reasonable results. 2/3 down is the button, again "Update ambient shadow" which really does it.

Great. I'm happy that it works now.

I added extended ARB to the car, but forgot to add the LUT files.
To Test if this was the reason, i deleted the extended code lines and used the standard ARB settings.😊

Next update will come with a fix.👍

Man, it looks so good with the fin.
I just can't get enough of group c.
I really struggled with alignment of textures with it. Hence the 10 on the fender and red around the cockpit being off slightly.
Was my first ever attempt at doing a skin.
Just trying to do some mid 80s races and wanted to add some missing liveries.

Keep going !! For a first attempt it ain't half bad, **** It's better than my first ever skin lol

andrevr thanks for the reply but that's actually exactly the issue I tried to mention, but I wasn't clear I guess,

I am well aware of CM "Align using data" tool and I never prefer/d using it because it never gave a proper alignment match between Cm showroom and in-game, So I always did my alignment via suspensions.ini file while "Align using data" checked. Until couple of months back previews and in-game alignment were matching with a very very small difference which was unvisible. But nowadays this method doesn't work too. Cars stances are really different, you can even check it with kunos cars (It's not a mod car problem). Go to CM showroom check Allign and see the alignment, and then start the game and check the difference.

I am not sure if it's a common issue, or nobody yet realise it...

I hope somebody can figure this out
