Hi everyone, I need help, some of the recent released cars have this problem, the car move the wheels, but the car dont run, Im using CSP0.1.80 prev1, is there eny fix to this bug? thank you in advance

Unfortunately for folks like us who prefer an older version of CSP, they require a newer version. Don't know if there's any way to make them compatible with v0.1.80 preview 1, which also happens to be the version I'm using...

 

[NewYuriCity]

The mod that nobody asked for, but hopefully you guys enjoy!

Land Rover Defender 110 V8:

https://www.gtplanet.net/forum/downloads/2021-land-rover-defender-110-v8.6960/

Major overhaul to Rekumi's Land Rover Defender mod, including resizing the model to accurate size, improving the physics for both off-road and on-road use, accurate ride height adjustability for off-road and on-road use (in SUSPENSION setup at the start of a session), updated factory skins, and more.

I cannot take full credit as I didn't create the base mod but I put a lot of work into fixing things that annoyed me and so I wanted to share with the community.

If you don't want to use the female driver just delete "woman_driver.kn5" under assettocorsa/content/drivers and it should load the default driver.

Some eye candy:

This is the first time I've done anything even remotely this involved, hope you guys enjoy!

There is a way to make them work on older CSP versions, but it takes a little leg work and unfortunately the data file can't be encrypted. I have to say up front that I am not a car modding guy so I have no idea if what I say here is actually factual and\or whether the car will drive the way it is intended if you do this. Also, I imagine what you have to do for each car may be different.

For this example, I will explain what I did for the recently released gadu_alfa_romeo_tz2 mod. A car I couldn't use before I did this, but now at least drives. Whether it drives the way the modder intended, I have no idea since I never had a chance to drive it before doing this.

1.) Make a copy of the data.acd file (just to be safe) and then unpack the data file for the car using CM's manage car menu.

2.) Go into the newly created data folder and open up the car.ini file. At the top you will see two entries:

[HEADER]
VERSION=extended-2

[_EXTENSION]
REQUIRED_VERSION=2744
RAIN_DEV=1

3.) Delete the entire EXTENSION section. This will eliminate the CSP crash that tells you that you need a newer CSP version, but the car still won't move so you also have to edit the HEADER section.

4.) For the HEADER part, i'm a little unsure of what to do here exactly. I changed the VERSION= part to both VERSION=1 and VERSION=2 and the car worked both ways. I didn't notice any difference in the way it drove so I'm not sure which is the right way to set it.

5.) Save the car.ini file. At this point you can do one of two things. Delete the existing data.acd file and the game will use the data folder files to manage the car. Or go back into CM and re-pack the data file and then delete the data folder.

Thank you, yes, that is a way for some mods that work with CSP0.2 physics based (when the suspension is not set like COSMIC), and then the car could be playeable in game, but in my side, the car loads, but the car spin the wheels, but without run... just stay burning tyres...

 

[MrLonguinha17]

The basics were made for the "Rothmans Opel Team" skin, 1982/1983 (Ascona 400 Group B model).

If anyone is willing to make improvements to the skins and remove the details (Thrustmaster windows) and add the details corresponding to the skins (Monte Carlo 1982) and some others, I will send the file that I adapted.

[Organizer777]

Hi everyone, Can I install @ClimaxF1 update track patch if I add 3d trees on my tracks ?

I have without problems.

 

[Ararelyracer]

Thanks very much, will test this out!

ok did some testing and I found that if I turn on BRAKEDISC_FX in CSP setting then I will see that blur lines in game, not in shown room though. If I turn it off then the disc brake looks normal when car is stationary..... but Kunos cars do not have this problem... please advise....

 

[Peter Boese]

@Peter Boese is there a way to rotate the sky dome and sun position to effectively correct an incorrectly-rotated track?
I know we can place the track anywhere on the planet with GPS coordinates, but is there a way to fake its orientation?
Rotating the track itself is often not practical due to things like animations getting broken, so it'd ironically be a lot easier to rotate the rest of the solar system rather than rotate the track.
If it's not currently possible, is it something that you and Ilja could consider at your next meeting of the Wizard's Guild?

EDIT: never mind, apparently it's already a feature of vanilla AC in lighting.ini the track's data folder.
SUN_PITCH_ANGLE: defines the height of the sun. 0 = top of the sky. 90 = horizon
SUN_HEADING_ANGLE: counter-clockwise rotation around the track

Thanks to @lux3y for finding this.

But it could be also properly set in the CSP track data file.
You find it in /extension/config/track_params.ini
or track_data or something. In it you find many definitions of tracks with coordinates and rotation angles

Can't find that, the only one close in AC root is ...extension/config/track_adjustments.ini, but there's nothing in there about rotations and coordinates. I guess I'm looking in the wrong place?
Just curious why this would be the considered the 'proper' way to do it anyway, rather that in the track's own data folder?
I'm not a fan of having car or track configs split in different locations, I much prefer to keep everything in the car or track folder where it's more overt, more easily accessed for editing, and less likely to have conflicting instructions (if 'ignore other configs' isn't active).

It's in assettocorsa/extension/config/data_track_params.ini
But everything that is put into this file overrides anything you have set in data/lighting.ini of your track folder. So preferably I would also just put it in the trackfolder rather than in the main extension folder of AC.

For the Brno track you have been working on, the SUN_HEADING_ANGLE needs to be set to -157

A positive value rotates the track clockwise, a negative value counterclockwise.

Thanks!
Yes, it was Brno that flagged this up and we've already made the corrections, but thanks for looking at it. @Tyrone B noticed that the shadows were incorrect for the ToD, so initially we were considering rotating the track, but that would have broken all of the animations. Lux3y then found the way to rotate the entire solar system, rather than the track, which saved a LOT of potential reworking.
Speaking of Brno, the update is taking a little longer than planned because we keep finding more things to improve.
Current changelog is:
v2.66 updated September 2024

• All tree textures replaced to reflect the wider variety at Brno. More trees planted. All tree shadows fixed. Tree meshes fixed. Floating trees seated. New bespoke treewall and bush textures created.
• Animated flying birds added.
• Animated camera jib, marshals and cameramen added.
• Some adboard/sponsor textures updated. Some adboard meshes fixed.
• New distance markers, pit entry signs, and marshal hut numbers.
• New skidmarks.
• Track rotation corrected for proper solar path and shadow casting.
• Various other tweaks and fixes, including: alpha corrections on pit entry road markings; marshal hut number sequence corrected and missing number textures remapped; s/f gantry banner mapping fixed on the rear side; floating hillside fences fixed; various jumbotron tweaks.

We're also looking to add a brand new environment map with proper terrain contours and elevations in the surrounding countryside, which might mean we can open up sight lines to the wider world. At the moment Brno is still a walled-in island floating in space as per the Race '07 original.

Team ZEXEL is the second livery for the R33 JGTC

 

[Tetri]

Just a small tip for people looking for good reflections (either cockpit or outside), in CSP settings, extra FX, the results are way better using the Local reflections SSLR set as Quality : High (OLD) and you can manually set the resolution to 500% (despise the limit with the mouse being 100%). Doesn't seem to have any impact on performances. It fixes the "bulky pixellated" effect on rounded areas as well.

In case, here's a direct CSP Extra FX link : https://acstuff.club/s/Ceg9

We figured that out looking for the lack of reflections of the cockpit board on the porsche Speedster A356 from @alexlockout a friend was experiencing.

BMW Z3M FIA GT COUPE' - GTR QUICK UPDATE

In these days I realized that, due to an error in the front strut, the car had a wrong steering angle that led, in some cases, even to the suspension breaking. In theory now everything should be fine and the car should be less "go kart feeling" in the first degrees of steering.

EDIT: I also fixed the blur in lod A so that I no longer have strange graphic effects

Nice car!
You asked for bug reports, here's a couple I spotted after a quick drive:
Side windows cast shadows and therefore block shadow-casting light from getting into the cockpit.
Please always check this on all windows, it's a common annoyance. Fix with:

;fix shadow-casting sun in cockpit
[SHADER_REPLACEMENT_...]
ACTIVE = 1
MATERIALS = INT_WINDOWS
CAST_SHADOWS = 0

The driver's side windows also have weird artefacts on the inside due to the borked DDS.
Sub the attached one in (remove the .txt extension)



Edit: @JK1977 can you please edit the LCD_trasp mesh? The word 'GEAR' floats above the surface of the display and isn't aligned with the other legends. Thanks.

[Cote Dazur]

There is a way to make them work on older CSP versions

Thank you for the tip, I tried it on the URD Cadillac that was not working with my CSP 0.2.3 preview 211. Unpacked, deleted the Extention line in car.ini, repacked. Working fine now. Great tip. This community is the best.

 

[Masscot]

@JK1977 something else for the Charger:
The rev LEDs didn't flash near the rev limiter because the RPM trigger was set too high.
The flashing frequencies were all different too, which looks very odd.
Some also did not light up with the correct LED colours.

Try this digital_instruments.ini which corrects the flashing trigger, synchronises the LEDs frequency, and lights them up with the correct RGB colours.

Again, these are all things you should really pick up by yourself during testing and not rely on others to fix for you after the fact.
Less quantity, more quality perhaps? Or just slow down a little?

 

[alexlockout]

Good afternoon, please suggest an application in which I can see the brake temperature, but so that it is necessarily displayed in digital values, and not just in color.

It's BE_Modding's "Ford GT GT3". It came in a huge pack of cars that they converted and modified, I believe this model was from NFS:S2. And yes, the other one is FSR's Ford GT3 from RaceRoom.
