So my question to all the track makers out there, or people with some experience. Why is it when I place a pitbox on a track my lollipop man thinks he's a mole and must hide underground? I've tried to raise the height of the pit dummy but that doesn't make any difference. What controls the height of this guy?

The scale or size of the AC_PIT_number object is probably incorrect.
AC Cube (What I use)

We gotta put @shin on the case, with his expertise those tracks would look mighty in AC. I'd even pay for that.

I had already checked the Overtake rFactor Track section.
Whether I convert or not depends on my motivation.
---------------------------------------------------
A Quick Note;

The following fixes will be applied in future Track posts (releases and updates).
Even when CSP settings → General Patch Settings → CPU optimizations → Chunks optimizations are set to Advanced, ground objects are no longer hidden.

I've been asked this question by several users before and I'm tired of it, so I'm going to review the graphics and make some corrections.

I had just read up about this and hacked another track to try that one and it did work, but I'll use yours as a base going forward. Thank you!

On the rfactor tracks note, I think there would be a lot of interested people, so hopefully you find motivation.

Or, you can just rescale the AC_PIT_number objects to 1, 1, 1 to get it right again.
I don't know the track you posted, but I tried it on mentioned Caesars Palace and it worked really easy.

Aaaand this is why I don't bother racing in AC - which defeats the very purpose of a... Racing game.

It's a hotlap simulator at best. You have people bringing 2000K+ triangles car with no LODs, rain that works whenever it feels like, tracks with **** AI, big studios releasing the same frigging car...

Pinnacle of modding right here. All those GT7 model porting modders are the worst

I picked your first point just to have a laugh, sooooooo (my sleeves are very long to roll)
I actually have 620 racing cars and here is my...

"Triangles Hall Of Fame":
851k rss hyperion
825k rss protech
788k rss furiano
764k Ferrari F40 LM

The one that makes laugh more is the VRC isola/isotta fraschini, in order to use that futureless disgrace of an amateur proto our pcs have to move 710k triangles around the track.

Another funnyfun paradigm is the the rss protech uses almost twice the number of triangles than urd darche992 23.
Is it twice as good? Naaaaaaaaah.

But in the end I don't even have a SINGLE four-figure k triangles model.

And by checking all the payware mods everybody can clearly see that RSS, and lately VRC too, have stopped caring about optimization.
The very good looking ripped Valkyrie appearing on these very pages is a 345k tris model, almost half of the mentioned brands.

p.s.
My point wasn't really try to nuke your point...but it just happened
This plus the fact alone that my AC doesn't wanna race anyway.
The good thing about the 4000k tris models is that they are out so hopefully someone in the future can reduce that frightening number.
Also, in terms of sheer performance: doesn't really care if a model has 300k or 700k triangles because the CSP stuff is making even the lowest triangles model super-heavy.

@kakauiyt
Groan and groan and groan.

 

[Cote Dazur]

But dont Worry, according to nicktheyapper69 on reddit, AC Evo will not work at all because Assetto Corsa IS much better with mods and people won't bother doing mods for AC Evo when AC exist and is much better

Which is absolutely true. I do not disagree with @ninezeroniner, what he describe is not wrong, it can happen.
Maybe it’s time for him to take a little break, and come back in a while to rediscover how amazing AC is.
Some here might be changing too many things too often and ends up being in a constant whirlpool.
I have the same CSP review since a year, AC is fairly stable for me, no issue with AI or anything else.
I still have the same (old) SOL, looks good to me when comparing to other title.
Because Ilya and Peter, keep pumping new “improved” stuff on their Patreon, does not mean we need to beta test on a regular basis.
Yes AC, is the best 2025 title available, nothing else come close, don’t fix what ain’t broken and all will be fine.

 

[StoffelWaffle]

Only took two years but I can finally finish the 1989 Fuji 1000 kms #20 Team Davey car thanks to newly published photos from demodori6 on Twitter

The only existing pic of the 1989 car (1990 had a different scheme) when I tried to recreate it:

My (now wrong) interpretation of the rest of the car:

The actual front of the car:

The corrected car (think the orange is a tad too bright but whatevs)

Finally. Maybe now I'll finish and release that god damn pack.

Not really.

AC is the best dry hotlaping simulator we have currently. But it lacks a lot of important stuff fixed by hacks.

As modders if you are presented with a new engine with native support for rain and night racing. Much better AI and a lot of csp options covered natively in AC Evo it's a no Brainer i would switch to AC Evo

The "don't fix what ain't broken" mentality would have left us with rfactor and no one jumping toward assetto corsa.

I did a lot of F1 mods for Assetto Corsa and not for Rfactor2 because I do recognize how Assetto Corsa is great, but after all these mods I've been frustrated a lot by Assetto limitations in 2025 that CSP barely fix.

The freedom in Assetto Corsa is great and unmatched in 2025, but the overall experience is not. I don't feel like racing in Assetto Corsa, just hotlaping. On a very sunny weather

 

[Cote Dazur]

That is your choice, does not mean that all kind of racing in all kind of cars, on all kind of track, on all kind of weather across all time periods cannot be enjoyed in AC.
Many of us do, on a daily basis.
Other title, with very limited content scope can offer an easier experience. AC is more demanding and that can be tiresome at times.
To limit AC to a small part of its potential is a personal choice but is not representative of what AC is and can offer.

The worst thing about AC is that there is nothing else even close to being worth investing my time in. I literally use it for messing about with mods and just fannying about taking pictures of said mods.
Its the best for that, just letting your imagination go wild and doing new stuff, stuff that's not been done or you'd wait a lifetime for.

Its not a popular opinion, but anyone who using it for rallying or even F1 or stuff like that is crazy, not even sure how you can when there are actual games that do it so much better and are made for it.
Like whenever i load up iRacing and do an AI race on ovals let alone against people, i wonder why anyone would bother trying to race ovals in AC..

 

[Hazerion17]

Does anyone have helmet textures from F1 2014? I found some on Overtake.gg but they're pretty low quality.

I was planning on converting the helmets from F1 2014 and upscaling the textures

I see your point as I've been with CSP028p1 for so many months. I don't remember if it has been a year but close.
All my first demented ramblings about performance were already on a old CSP version, but they still apply.

I'm actually preparing some fictional GT3 championships that use lots of cars that get barely used, it's so cool that we have a 2018 Ford GT so why do I have to use only to emulate real seasons? Some cars, some tracks with recent AI updates = instant fun right?.
I'm not even talking about cars released yesterday.

(obviously tightly BOPed by me)
And some of these mods pit at the 4rth or 5th lap, with or without the Nuzzi Pit App that's supposed to put order to chaos, tested on various CSP versions.
It's a total of 5 cars on a 15 cars grid.

Of course I got other mods. But fuel and AI set-ups are ancient AC problems that pop up whenever you want to step out 30 minutes races.
There wouldn't be a Nuzzi Pit App if AC's AI strategies worked or if the CSP maker gave a damn about them.
I can bring my car to the local track for 1 hour and more, but I can't make 1 hour races on AC without the AI disappearing on me only to go pitting and then fighting for the lastest positions.

That's just embarassing in 2025.

I'm sorry but I feel that your AC experience is somewhat limited if severely time restrained. I'm not talking about mind-bending possibilities, it's just having the cars racing hard & pure for 1 hour.
I'm not hotlapping F1's on the Nordschleife, not my thing.

Same, AC is my lab - I see a car from another game I wanna drive in AC ? I import it, drive around for a bit and delete it. Rallying in AC is a complete dud compared to RBR so I steer clear from that stuff as well. And even NASCAR '15 in its broken state is a much better experience than AC for oval racing lol

Hi all,

Talking about rain: am I alone to have water inside the cockpit of Kunos Lamborghini Miura 400V when raining ?

The wipers work well but under the area of the windscreen that they don't reach, there is water on the speedometer and other glass surfaces of the cockpit in first person view

Answering to myself, in case of someone would have the same issue:

I solved it using an ext_config.ini with:

[MESH_ADJUSTMENT_...]
MESHES = MIURA_DASHBOARD_GLASS_MESH
IS_ACTIVE = 1
IS_TRANSPARENT = 0

Hi everyone!


Since Overtake.GG now not only has ads on the site itself but also shows those annoying “mobile game style” ads when downloading a mod, I decided to create a small extension.


Here’s what it does: you can keep browsing OTGG without an adblocker (so they can still make money from ads), but when you want to download a mod, instead of clicking the regular DOWNLOAD button, you just use the extension’s button.


For now, it’s only available for Chrome, since that’s the browser I use. Its aviable for Firefox too, but at the moment only as a temporary extension. I will update it when I manage to get the Mozilla signature


You can find the source code of the extension here, along with the README (with more info) and the release version of the extension:


👉 https://github.com/DeLaFuente1999/OTGG_Download_Ad_Bypass


It might not be perfect, since even though I’m a programmer (junior), this is the first extension I’ve built.


The extension may ask for some permissions, that’s normal and there’s no malware or anything shady inside (it requests access to history and to show notifications — you can check everything in the source code). If you run into any problems or complaints, feel free to DM me or open an issue on GitHub. Honestly, if just one person tries it out, I’ll already be happy.


Thanks!

why always previews end up more blurry then what the Preview window shows ??

(this is without CSP , with CSP it's even worse)
and no it's not the resize of the ui ... even when I open the full size pic , it's more blurry then on the Previews pane...

EDIT: aargh, and the pics pasted here also loose quality.. so here is a download

Montjuich 1975 3.0 by Rainmaker, Sliderman, DaBaeda, THR - Visual fixes.

• fixed some textures which create a non-existing vertical line (I don't know how to describe the issue in onother way )
• little updates for other textures (cathedral, castle, banners...)
• fixed a couple of meshes with missing double sided
• srinked the poles of the fences near the starting line

Well to fix sticking out driver i used driver_maxpayne3 model without helmet. shifting animation is far from perfect, but that's how it is at the moment. And i did not find problem with lights, maybe csp bug. Link updated, just redownload for a fix.

Its not a popular opinion, but anyone who using it for rallying or even F1 or stuff like that is crazy, not even sure how you can when there are actual games that do it so much better and are made for it.

I actually agree about F1... when it's about post DRS/ERS years. F1 2020 does everything so much better (besides force feedback which is numb). And it's a great game and has superior AI to any "real sim", believe it or not. The new F1 titles after F1 2020 vary from meh to awful though.

However I think very few people actually play full seasons. They probably just hotlap the new F1's. When it's about driving feel some modern VRC cars are amazing to drive. But for realistic races in modern F1... it's tough as there are so many rule changes like Q1, Q2, Q3 qualifying and many other variables that are hard to duplicate on AC. I don't know if you can build, say... a 2025 season with tracks where DRS work flawlessly. Maybe it's possible I'm not that much into modern F1 on AC. Max Verstappen said that nothing is better for learning new F1 tracks than AC so the modern VRC cars can't be that bad, huh?

BUT Asssetto Corsa is amazing in classic F1 seasons. There's no way you can play those seasons anywhere else at the same level. For example 1990, 1991, 1998 are amazing quality and when the tracks are cars are well done the AI decent too (when everything has been set up correctly). 2004, 2005, 2007, 2008 too. 1998 season is pretty much perfect (thanks to Shi and Thockard). And the best thing about these old seasons is that you can always improve them.

I have created TV graphics for the 80's, 90's and 2000's seasons. They increase the genuine atmosphere so much. Sure you had this stuff on GP4 mods too... but none of the modern F1 games can duplicate the feeling on AC classic F1 imho. rFactor and GP4 at the time were great but compared to AC classic seasons it's like visiting your grandpa.

I was reading the Custom Shaders Patch Wiki and realized you can do an "easy" rim swap on cars using a line of code and a *.kn5 file with a single wheel. Are there any rim packs available online anywhere? Or, is there an easy way to isolate only a wheel to make a *.kn5 file? Keeping in mind I have basically no knowledge or skills in Blender or 3D programs. Any help would be appreciated.

EDIT: I have just made a blind attempt at doing this, and while yes I was able to isolate a rim and import it into AC... for some reason there is only a single rim and it's the size of a mountain lol. I have no idea what I've done wrong here but it's actually comical.

If anyone is looking for a 50 foot tall rim, let me know.

 

[Apocalypse211]

Or, you can just rescale the AC_PIT_number objects to 1, 1, 1 to get it right again.
I don't know the track you posted, but I tried it on mentioned Caesars Palace and it worked really easy.

Has anyone had an issue where animating a wing in blender the fbx animation when applied in the KS editor isn't what you exported. Like for instance it keeps picking a random spot in the animation and choosing to split it up from there so it jumps to a different bit at a randomly determined point when it saves it. Another example is it is animating it but its rotating from two positions not marked in the file.
