Assetto Corsa PC Mods General DiscussionPC

[kakauiyt]

At least their cars have proper LODs, so having a main model with (too) much detail doesn't really break the bank. Cars with 350k triangles and no LODs are much more hungry. But 851k triangles...yeah, I kind of agree - that's excessive.

Assetto corsa in a nutshell

You have the poor and the rich, the poor can't afford running the game with latest VRC RSS and unoptimized night tracks despite having a PC that has 2015 power.

And you have the rich that has Nasa PC that can burn as many polygons as they want their GPU is made for hardcore raytracing

RSS and VRC should be forced to develop their cars on the average peasant PC to force them to optimize their stuff. That's what made me do lods and texture optimization on cars that aren't even considered high poly.

So what version of blender are you using I'm on 3.3 which from what I read I shouldn't have to do the 90 degree rotate. When I'm in game after using that exporter for some reason the wing element is just missing and is no where to be found. Was i supposed to export more than just the empty that is the parent?

Uh no, no matter the blender version you NEED to rotate 90 degrees. If you use the ksanim exporter blender extension.

And the exporter will export the current animation displayed doesn't care if you select an empty or an object or whatever. Just the current animation playing in blender, and every object affected by it.

Here's how I did drs animation

A question about the driver animation, I was reading your website and think I see where I've been going wrong all the time with it. Does the positioning work with all driver models (kunos ones at least) or does it only work with the 2016 kunos model?

I mean no disrespect to JK1977, but I have to find out about posts like this. We have a label GT7 Models, 6 nice pictures of cars, thats it. No links, nothing else, and it has 19 likes. What are people liking, just the pictures? Just wondering.

Encouragement because people are pleased he's working on them, and they'll be released when ready?

Because I like his fantastic job. Simple like this.

The armature is standard. Even custom driver you can find in overtake like Miku Hatsune is based of the armature of kunos. So that it would be compatible with any steer.ksanim. so the positioning you would do there will work with any custom driver that shares kunos armature.

Something I just realized, if your wing has any bones attached to it and isn't just an object moving, this part would fit your case more, because yeah if there's bones involved you can have issues like wing missing/not being at it's correct place

LODless cars, or to be clear, LODless racecars used to make me so angry.
But Simplygon is simply gone...now it's even more annoying to LOD because you need extra stuff.
Plus you have to take account that good LODding come from good modding, ergo if a car's parts are well separated LODding is waaaay easier and logic.
Modders were LOD-lazy before, imagine now.

There's also the elephant in the room. The Nothing-Beats-A-Jet2-Hotlapping-Simulator mentality.
You get folks who don't care about the looks of the car. Then you get folks who step up the game pressing their noses against a chassis.
Then, few illuminated revolutionaries see a car at 100meters and think "I have to squint my eyes to see that, otherwise is just a dark booger on wheels." and then realize "OH! that's why LOD models look like dark boogers on wheels! GPU economy, woooooow!"

There are even few PILLARS of the modding economy releasing their LODless great cars, and writing something along the lines of "take this, has no LODs, guess that makes me a bad guy, uh?".
That's a weird flex to...no one I guess?

Anyway take it as an empty stat, in 620 racecars I got barely 10/20 LODless cars.
All praise and glory to the LOD

You wanted good quality and that takes time, I could also bring out a car every day ...but that would not be in the interest of everyone

 

[yavuzazgin]

It's ridiculous that the latest models of RSS only work with higher CSP versions.

There’s a file in the folder that switches it to standard or “vanilla” physics. I’m not sure about their most most recent releases though, but the Alpine A525 still had it.

Latest release doesn't and they are saying no longer supporting non-CSP. Has ruffled a load of feathers

I think people ask you this all the time because it's just outright completely unclear, looking at your patreon there are many cars that look finished and are not marked as WIP, and people asking for links. A possible solution to consider could be throwing everything into a google drive or mega folder as a repository of sorts, so people can see what is released, all in one place, or, if you already have a repository, mentioning it in more places on your patreon etc.

I didn't realize there were people in 2025 still not using CSP. I know there was a recent run of issues with one of the recent versions but that was easily solved by rolling back for a couple weeks while it got sorted. Haven't had any issues on 0.2.12preview1 personally.

It's not really "not using csp" but rather not using latest csp.

And also lot of people wants stock physics for performance reason. Csp physics tends to be more heavy on fragile pc

It seems you do and are disrepecting someone who contributes to the community for free.
Where are you mods huh?

Perhaps you should stop looking gift horses in the mouth.

 

[MrHunt]

I collaborated on this car a while ago with other modders, now I've edited it and improved it aesthetically. If you like it and it doesn't bother anyone, I can share it, but only if it doesn't create a drama.... I have many cars edited and improved by me, but no mod is totally mine, this makes me shy about sharing....

Please release your cars

My one cent about this (inflation, i don't have 2 cents anymore) drama arise if the og modders whose cars you worked on top are still alive and reachable and you can contact them but didn't. We all prefer contribution being done to the original cars instead of having 3 times the same cars by 3 person who decided to make change on the original car but release it under their share mods links.

So contact them and ask them about what's the best way to release the edits you've done.

If the modders aren't alive anymore and cannot be reached. Then you can release your stuff. But with full credits. When I did the MMG 2007 mod i released it after trying first to see if there was a way to reach up to them. Then released the mod but naming it MMG 2007 so that everyone knows whose cars it is really unlike simdream who released every mod as SDD 200X

Mak Corp contacted me later, not to scold me but to say that they appreciated my work and the fact that I gave proper credit, and that it didn't bothered them that I released the mod without their approval.

Rather toxic response. Then again JK is also charging 4 to $18 on patreon and has never once provided an download link to his patreon's

 

[RMi_wood]

Not on his patreon, yet I have many of his high quality mods that were/are free.

Oh, well that’s dumb and I’m probably going to avoid RSS mods from now on. I don’t want to be forced into using any of the disastrous new CSP versions if I don’t have to. I hate that they’re releasing paid content for untested and buggy versions of CSP in the first place.

I bet most of everyone who is at RSS and works on CSP just uses the game as a hotlapping simulator anyways. The AI specifically has been ravaged for a while now and hasn’t been fixed in any of the new previews.

I’m on 1.79 preview still just because it’s the last version that seems to work ok in most areas that I can recall.

Well if everyone would have stay with 2014 spec, the game we know now wouldnt exist. We would still have those poorly made mod frome 2014-2015 and nothing would have evolved...

Its ok for anyone not to be able to be up to date with pc spec, but dont be mad for those who can.

But yeah, "modders" SHOULD follow the Kunos pipeline before releasing a mod (how many mods, even from members from here dont have any cockpit_HR, which is in the pipeline and SUPER easy to add...).

Alfa Romeo Alfetta GT by ABB Creations, SColMODS edit geppo (who collaborated with the following team)
Released after the confirmation message from the ABB Creations team, SColMODS, whom I thank for this...
In this new version, the interiors, which were in really bad shape, have been improved, new upholstery color, body shaders changed, some chrome, yellow headlights added, emergency lights fixed (the side indicators now work too), and many other small aesthetic adjustments... The skin colors are original Alfa Romeo ones from the period (made some time ago).
The physics have remained unchanged.

New version 1.3.2 with changes made by Masscot: new driver animations, new license plate

I'm exaggerating a bit there when I say 2014 PC spec, but what I'm saying is that assetto corsa IS a 2014 game, and a very optimized one that can run on potato PC easy. The fact that a rtx 4060 isn't able to handle a night track with a RSS car at a full 60fps 1080p is shocking. Assetto corsa gives us a lot of free performance to improve the experience, and there's people who will just fill it up unecessarily.

Assetto Corsa with mods shouldn't require the specs of Assetto corsa competizione on an unoptimized unreal engine.

Good afternoon
Does anyone here on the forum have any starting problems at Mid-Ohio Delta7Fox-NAGP?

In my system, the chicane layout is chaos at the start..

Tks

From what I've seen, a ton of players are using sub 2014 spec pc and exptect 4k gaming out of it!!

View attachment 1475188

nope, that's not improving things ...
It's like the final render has gone through a blur filter, prob something todo with the resolution it's being generated at and/or what PP filter is being used during preview rendering. Nobody AFAIK knows which filter that is!
If anyone knows how to set the PP filter being used, or which video preset is being used, please share!

AC in 2025 currently looks like jenga -they've added so much stuff it's unstable as hell and if you take one bit out you're afraid that everything will crash down lol

(That's what happens when you add things to a decade old engine that barely supports those uh)

We don't expect 4K gaming, we expect rain races that work (they barely do) and night racing that doesn't require a NASA computer to run (good luck) but surely it's not Ilja's fault, nah, it's us peasant unwilling to buy the latest computer to run a game from ****ing 2014 lmao.

Say what you want about AC but it is everything but optimized. I have no problems running night, rainy races in AMS2 but my computer struggles for AC ? Yeah it's not the fault of the game uh.
