Hey all,

On the UDP connector for Simhub - can I request a little trouble shooting support?

I've followed the instructions and set everything up, however when the .DLL is in the root Simhub folder, Simhub loads locked and with a black screen or with buttons that cannot be pressed, if I remove the .DLL it reverts back to normal - any clues?

Its a a paid version of Simhub.

Thanks very much for these, you always add a lot of variety with your extra layouts. Very much appreciated!
Haven't tested all the new routes yet but spotted a couple of glitches at Marine Gate: some ground textures are missing, and a small pop-up tent seems absent too, leaving the Liqui Moly banner just floating in air.

Ground textures:

(it's there on the main Memorial Run route:)

There are sooo many details, thanks for noticing, Masscot. I'll fix it.

Hello, ;)

I decided to install the three Indy 95 cars from a Legion's mod and I can't modify the fuel consumption of the cars via “Fuel Consumption” in the data as car..ini.

For example, originally, on a lap of Road Atlanta with the turbo at 100%, the car consumes 11 liters per lap.

I think it's reasonable to assume that consumption could easily be half that.
I've modified “Fuel Consumption” in car.ini, but unfortunately nothing changes.

Do you have any ideas or has anyone been able to change this data, please?

Thank you in advance for your help.

Cheers ! :cheers:

Firstly unpack the data as others have said, then make the figures as follows in car.ini:

[FUEL]
CONSUMPTION=0.004
FUEL=151
MAX_FUEL=151

This will give you realistic fuel loads and consumptions for those cars. That's the base figure for my Indycar mods and they are originally using Legion's physics.

Pack the data again afterwards. Or just delete the data.acd file.

Make sure you're on the latest version of SimHub - 9.7.8. I did my extensive testing on 9.7.6. I assume it requires a very recent version of SimHub to work.
 
Quick question - does altering the tyre radius alter a cars handling, or is it simply something that alters the appearance of the car? I bought an F1 paid mod recently (from a company i shouldnt have - i should have known better as their work leaves a lot to be desired!!). Anyways, i've finally got the rear tyres to actually sit on the tarmac rather than floating in the air, since then though i SWEAR the car is now borderline undriveable. I made some other small physics updates, is it the adjusting of the tyre radius that is making the car unstable?

AFAIK "width"/"radius"/"rim radius" etc in tyres.ini are 99.9% unrelated to handling, the 0.01% is "radius" that can affect gearing.
So if your "borderline undrivable" relates to power maybe radius/radii is the cause. Doubt it, though,

New Pure 2.57 development update is available.
One new feature worth high-lighting (for me anyway) is:
"new "mountain" shader, improves skydomes look in foggy sceneries (Pure LCS only)"
Mountains are hard to get right and look real. This feature looks fantastic. "Hello Fuji!" :)

Thanks @Peter Boese :cheers:

@Peter Boese This new 'mountain shader' is a step in the right direction to stop distant mountains going a pale duck-egg blue, but I think it might now make them a little too dark with a vivid blue hue.

Here's some mountains using the latest LCS and latest Natural Mod PPF (very dark and saturated blue hue):

...and here's the same using Ilja's default weather (more natural and less saturated green-grey hue)

Is this something that needs attention at source, or can you advise how to adjust it? The mountains in the default weather style look a lot more realistic to me.

The mountain shader actually has no influence on the mountains! It just makes the skydomes around the mountains more foggy.
Looks like your fog "atmosphere" is too high. This will make the distance such blue. If this is at 1.0 in Pure Config app Fog tab, it should look ok!

How does it look with the "pure" PPfilter?

Mmmm... strange! These darker, bluer mountains on many tracks definitely seemed to start with the 2.57 build. Quite a few people have noticed this.
I'll check fog atmosphere is at 1.0 and also test with the Pure PPF.

Edit: @Peter Boese looks the same with Pure PPF, and fog atmosphere is at the default 1.0.

What´s the name of this track, I would like to double-check here as well.

Maybe it happend after some tweaking of the fog engine itself.
Could you check, which "atmosphere" level would fit the older version?

I did some tests and it seems a value of 0.68 is working the best. Might be a result of fixing the lowest possible fog presence.

Hi !

Thanks a lot for your help, I tried (without no significant change) but as I wrote before, I prefer to give up because It makes me sad barely angry.
I don't understand where is the problem to solve this situation.

For some people who got this mod, first don't forget to replace the sound by the VRC Formula NA 1999 because the original one is terrible.

Cheers and thanks a lot for the help, I appreciated it a lot. :cheers: :bowdown:

Ok thanks for that. I'll carry on fiddling - I increased the radius so the car was sat on the tarmac but it definitely made the car more on the nose, like as soon as I turned in the rear would spin like a top. I reverted back to the old tyre file and could turn in with no problems, but 1/4 of the tyre would be below the track surface! Good old Simdream. I've reported it on their discord but shockingly no response from a few days ago now. Money well spent.

hi gents,
the only way i know to this problem without changing the handling of a car is using 3Dsimed:
-isolate the wheel
-select 'EDIT'
-select 'RESIZE' (not scale on the right of the screen)
-a pop up menu appears, change the value, x for the width, y and z for the diameter
-save as an object .3se
- go back to the car
-select the same wheel and change it with the one you just saved
-repeat for the other wheels
-export, done
Have a nice day, Mike

Edit:
for GT3Masters97 and the fun, false 3D effect only on the RPM gauge (because i'm lazy :))

maybe when you decrease the radius of the tyre the car bottoms out, if that's the case you should probably raise the collider.ini
 
Thanks for the insights, everybody.
I've done the thing of tweaking the three tyre values at least 6/7 times on several cars in order to edit out the "flying car" effect and it has always worked fine...but there's always room for learning. So many quirks and consequences...

I'm actually increasing the radius to raise it up off the ground, I'm guessing I'm still going to run into physics based issues from what other people have said. I'll try increasing the colliders as well to see if that helps. Thanks to all that replied/helped out.
 
Speaking of tires and asphalt... I guess that when the wheels sink in sections of the track and look fine in other sections, the problem is with the track mod, not the car's, that there's no easy way to fix the problem and that solve it involves the use of (beyond my knowledge) 3D tools, right?

Concur. I've seen it as well. You asked before I could gather all the evidence :)
Pure 2.57, pure PPF, Fog atmosphere is at 1.0.

Edit. Solved by @Peter Boese. Reduce Fog Atmosphere :cheers:
