help needed here :-)

how can I create a track configuration where the texture of this object (black tyre wall, tyre01.dds) is always overriden with my custom DDS texture file even when no track skin is selected by user, is that possible?

1. create a folder in your track called "texture"
2. put your new files with the same name you wish to overide in that folder
3. enjoy your new texture in game

help needed here :-)

how can I create a track configuration where the texture of this object (black tyre wall, tyre01.dds) is always overriden with my custom DDS texture file even when no track skin is selected by user, is that possible?

It is possible and I will try to explain it the best I can.

You can assign a texture to any material with an entry in the track's ext_config file using the code below. You will need to know the name of the material so hopefully you know how to use the object inspector app to get the name. First, place the texture you want to use in the extension folder.

[SHADER_REPLACEMENT_...]
DESCRIPTION = Put whatever you want here
MATERIALS = The material name you want to assign the texture to
RESOURCE_0 = txDiffuse
RESOURCE_FILE_0 = The_name_of_your_texture.dds

For good housekeeping, I always prefer to make a folder in the extension folder named 'textures' and place any textures I want to assign in that folder. If you do that, then the code would look like this:

[SHADER_REPLACEMENT_...]
DESCRIPTION = Put whatever you want here
MATERIALS = The material name you want to assign the texture to
RESOURCE_0 = txDiffuse
RESOURCE_FILE_0 = textures\The_name_of_your_texture.dds

One thing to note, I gave an example of how to change a material's Diffuse texture. If the texture you want to assign is for another variable, like the mask texture, you will need to change the resource name and number to match that texture. Once again, you can get that information from the object inspector app.

EDIT: @RMi_wood beat me to it and his way is easier. I always forget about that way of doing it.

I'm also having trouble installing the TVR Griffith 200...

I've downloaded the TVR mod from Overtake, as well as the car files and skins from THR, but I'm not sure if I'm copying and pasting the files in the correct order, because I can't get it to work.

Is there a kind soul who can explain step by step how to proceed?

Here I did the following:

Deleted GTC Giulia and TVR from the cars folder;
Installed original cars (links on the installation notes);
Reinstalled GTC Giulia and TVR.

It worked normally. I didn't touch any internal file of any of the cars.

F1 2008 V4 Update​

View attachment 1506057

To celebrate the 1 year of this mod, here's an update that should revamp the experience graphically

Changelog :

• Mclaren has been reworked, new Butterfly nose featuring more details accurate to the real car (instead of just adding a butterfy and calling it a day). It also now feature a sharkfin version that was used during testing but never raced
• Ferrari also had some love given to it, the nose/cockpit area has been reworked to match the onboard look and be more high poly. Massa helmet is fixed, he didn't use a schubert model before
• All cars have now accurate tyre size, as well as normal maps to highlight the bodylines even further
• Lot of fixes, some skins that had issues, toyota having the area where the driver name is being totally dark red and standing out when it shouldn't, renault missing some AO in the skin file.
• Blurred rims are now correctly blurred, with a special texture for it, also improved the transparency of the blurred rim
• New suits and gloves for all 2008 drivers, as well as pit crew. Courtesy of wakamatospcl, It's good to race with accurate skins
• New cameras by neema_frcice
• Template PSD now included to help skinners making skin for all cars
• And other stuff I have forgotten

Get the update here : https://www.overtake.gg/downloads/mak-corp-f1-2008-mod-by-cimmerian_iter.74005/

By the way, massa gets a special treatment here in GTPlanet, with a skin made by GIL with a much better schubert 3D helmet model. Get the skin here (drag and drop to cim_2008_ferrari)

I'm stuck. Tried to download the update then open it up and got this



Then tried to delete it and start over again and got this



What does it mean it's open in another folder? It wouldn't open!!! How could it be open anywhere else if it wouldn't open to begin with?

Does anyone know this Oldsmobile Aerotech 1992?, What's the difference between it and the one from Ex Mods?

 

[Perico Lospa]

Here I did the following:

Thanks... I think that's what I did with the Giulia, and that's why it worked from the start (well, except for the odometers backgrounds, which aren't visible, but that's a CSP bug, seems).

In the case of the TVR, I think I don't started from scratch and I mixed some files from the old version. Then started experimenting nerviously trying combinations (first install this, then that, then the inverse way...), and ended up with something that works... 😅

 

[kpcart]

This is the best app, now i can install all the skins included with AC LEGENDS mods
i have a seperate drive i use mainly for AC, and nearly 3000cars and nearly 800 tracks. This compression will take a few hours, but then i have 500gigs more space.

From my experience, it means that your guardian and big brother Windows Defender is still doing a virus scan on that downloaded .7z and doesn't want to let go

Regarding glass shadows, you can use the CAST_SHADOWS = 1 parameter.however, in order for the light to still pass into the car's interior,you need to add this: PROP_...= ksAlphaRef,0.5.in some cases with the texture of dirty glass. The ksAlphaRef value can be changed so that the dirt casts a shadow.

 

[fleskebacon]

I second all of that...and the same goes out to @_Bazza_ and the AC Legends/WSC Legends teams. Huge thanks on so many levels... 🔥

The AC Legends and DRM Revival mods were the things that got me into AC in the first place, many years ago. This is digital gold.

I'm using cm compression + compact gui, is this software better than this combo?

I tried restarting the computer and that didn't work. Bringing up the task master didn't show anything either. I think I'm just going to bring back the last version and leave it at that. Maybe one day down the road I'll look at that new file and it will be released.

Try using this to extract the mod...don't use WinRar

yes using Compactor tool is better then the CM built-in compression I concluded a while back...

It will be updated again when I'll improve lods, and fix red light. But if it still doesn't work i will send you a sharemods link

Thanks to everyone involved in bringing us these great and detailed historical mods. The quality and range of vehicles is top notch. These will keep me entertained for a while especially when putting grids together with all the different great vehicles and liveries to choose from.

Stélian also decided not to publish any longer public mods due to this behaviour by ACTK.

Anyway, who is able to help me with some lua scripting? Since we have the possibility to use a dedicated loading screen script, I tried some hours to create a proper lua file with help of AI, but I am not satisfied at the end.

At least I managed to put the description of the car and track directly from CM and made a small loading animation (sweeping status bar), but the text could be more polished. But I really struggle to encode the lua file properly.

I'm slowly getting into lua scripts, but this particular field (loading screens, textures and related UI adds) i've never attempted. What are your main issues?

V8 Supercars 2011

I initially released these in 2014 on another forum... just started getting into AC again and needed to freshen these up to somewhere near the current standards.
Updates include:

• new tyres, somewhere between V8Corsa and BCRC
• CSP functionality with wipers, lights, flames etc
• upscaled interior textures
• fixed driver animations to avoid clipping through the steering wheel

We'll have a look at these and see if we can implement different alpha values, appreciate you listing them - feel free to DM me a list of all the ones you've found.

Also, small piece of trivia: the 2 litre car (and the Ford 289 version) was the 'M630' or just 'type 630' and then the partnership with Simca meant that they got rebranded the 'MS630'. At least, that's what I read but I wouldn't be shocked if that's wrong.

Any period entry list just refers to 'Matra Sport' and doesn't have any designation. Anyway, we're keeping the 'MS630' moniker in case it's needed in future...

That download page has so many crap links on it, anti-virus goin off, I can't find the download link! Lucky for me I was forced to download the opera browser for the 20th time. Any chance you could post that somewhere with a visible link?

Good call - I did not notice with Brave browser but just wanted a host that I didn't need to create an account for.

Replaced with a Mediafire link.
Even better, my Mediafire account still had the original uploaded files that I had lost from my PC, including the PSD skin templates for these! I have updated the archive so it includes the templates as well.
