Monza 2025 (beta 0.92)

monza_2025_beta

Throwing this out there for anyone to try in the hopes to get a little feedback. I am concerned about flickering on the sponsor banners. I had to fix a lot of them and redo a lot of the uv mapping for the textures. I do not see any but i'm on an old CSP version and don't know if that would make a difference.

Don't let the name fool you. This is not a representation of the track in 2025. It's just a name I picked so I can separate this version from the Kunos version in my CM track list. It is nothing more than all of the mods i've created or downloaded for Monza rolled into one track so I can keep the original Kunos version 'clean'. It is a beta version (about 90% complete) so you can expect to see some obvious mistakes and maybe some poor texture choices. Because it's based on the original Kunos track, you are free to use any mods for that track with this one, such as ai files, track skins, etc. The one thing you can't do is use a mod that will overwrite the ext_config file. That would cause some issues.

Credits:
-- @Masscot for the animated flagmen and balloons
-- Assets used from the monza2022crf version of the track.
-- knicker for the crowd files.

While this track is not as confusing as some of my other ones, I still need to explain a few things:

-- There are two layouts, the base layout and a raceday layout that adds sponsor banners in some spots based on a 2025 GT World Challenge video I watched as a reference. The raceday layout is best to use with modern cars because the sponsors wouldn't make much sense for cars 10+ years old. Also, when using the raceday layout, I would suggest enabling the 2025 Raceday track skin to complete the look.
-- There are four 'Years' track skins that will bring back certain buildings and structures to make the track more period accurate. For example, enabling the 2010 (probably should have been named pre-2010) skin will make the track look like the Kunos default version with no structures hidden.
-- For performance reasons, I have the animated flagmen and live jumbotron displays off by default for older computer users. You can turn them on by enabling the appropriate track skin. Plus it's nice to turn them off when driving a practice session.
-- Last thing, there is a huge difference in how bright the crowds look depending on whether you use CSPs 'New spectators rendering method' so you might have to do some adjusting to the ambient and diffuse values in the camera_facing file. I have it setup for my CSP options, but yours may be different.

Have fun and hope to hear from someone on any issues you may see. If not, then i'll just keep plugging along thinking everything is all right.

Track has been updated to version 0.92. Use the link in the quote to get the update. Disable any track skins you are using first then extract and overwrite when it asks. Or the safer method would be to delete your existing track folder first.

I wasn't planning such a quick update, but we got 16" of snow today. When you are stuck in the house, you have plenty of time to work on things.

Updates:

-- Removed the AGIP logos from the track surface for the 2023 and 2025 track skins. Thanks to @Quark67 for pointing out they should be removed. I tried my best to blend the new texture mapping on the meshes with the surrounding surfaces, but the one coming out of Ascari was way too difficult to match. Hopefully it's not too noticeable.
-- Moved one of the Ascari Rowe banner meshes to a more accurate location based on race footage.
-- More tree shifting to eliminate some trees from poking through walls.
-- Some objects removed for 2025 to better match race footage.
-- First attempt at making the track look resurfaced for 2025. At the moment you will need to enable the 2025 track skin to make it work. I may eventually make it a separate track skin just in case anyone wants to make their own version. And i'm still waiting to hear if it is too dark.
-- Added the Monza logo to the object at the start of pit lane.

I think that's all I did.

Huge free mod dump yesterday including yellow flag safety car app, oval qualifying aap, superspeedway pack racing app, fictional Ford and Genesis hypercars imsa, nascar COTA layout, IRL series and others. i got no idea if he makes himself, but worth a look.

I'm actually back with yet another question: Since I am working a bit to improve the DRM-Revival mod I wanna ask if experts know or even can remember (I should for ex. but cannot, also don't find too many pix via Google) which cars in the DRM had yellow headlights!? Since I have learned how to mod the range and also the color of headlights (giggity) I want to try and improve that on those awesome cars as well for even more realism. - Oh and if someone maybe knows how I can make an orange skin for the crew in GIMP that would also be nice to knöw you knöw.Thank ye.👍

Edit: So have found a bit of info about the yellow headlights and modded it accordingly. The question how to get an orange crew overall (Team Jägermeister is my goal) however is still hot. Thx!

I am close to quitting patreon support due to lack of care.

Ilya never replies.
Legit one update from next always makes something go boom.
We are like years from stable build because code they keep rewriting 100 times over.

Biggest issue is that the physics part of new csp updates are really good.
So teams like URD that release new mods that have cosmic suspension/raycasting to fix kerb tire thing and is built on FIA / manufacturer / driver / telemetry data etc require newest CSP but than you run into ****** issue where I can't for life of me find what pile of crap graphics settings changed from previous to newest paid version that causes this glitching.

I know its something to do with lightning and skin but like what setting. Its going 1 to 1 and changing it to figure this horse**** out.

I've been trying to help out Beni and Abulzz on the new lidar version of the Targa Florio and it is unplayable on CSP 0.3.x because of the broken GrassFX. Even CSP 0.2.x has weird grass effects but at least it doesn't have crashing frames. We need an option in GrassFX to display all the grass within a radius rather than having it 'grow' as you approach it even if it does mean higher resources because at the moment you have a draw line 10m in front of you that makes it hard to concentrate on the road and it is especially bad in a high res VR headset.

Exactly what I mentioned a few pages back. Feels like a regression, as it was fixed in an older release.

previews are generated without error, when you roll back to an older CSP version (for example 0.3.0-preview140)
otherwise skin generating will stop after a few skins, but if you want the settings I can share them

Thank you very much for the offer, but I'm from the era of manual SLRs and film, and I have basic knowledge about depth of field, shutter speed, aperture, etc.

Yeah I didn't mean like how to do shot composition and play with the settings, but more so how to get set up and make things actually work inside the game. The biggest things being having orbit cam for F5 disabled in the Assetto Corsa System settings and just some minor minutiae on how the "motion shots" work since those are a bit finicky too.

And do I have another question for the knöwing, assembled Jedi-Masters here!? Yes.🙄
Ever since I have wondered that in CM there is a "Values storage" an amount that gets bigger and bigger, no matter if you "cleanup" CM or not. So is that a thing, a cache you cannot or even MUSTNOT clear, I have looked in the CM folder in app-data as well but found nada so far. OK that would be interesting - experts surely knöw more. Thx.

As a follow up to the CSP GrassFX debacle on the Targa Florio Discord we have been playing around with the GrassFX config file and have come up with some options.

Thanks is due to h1 for his input.

The file you can edit in Notepad is grass_fx.ini in ....assettocorsa/extension/config or put the section inside your user settings file under cfg/extension in your user folder as updating CSP will overwrite the one in assettocorsa/extension/config

What you find is 5 GENERATIONS which corespond to the Very Low to Very High settings in CSP GrassFX section
0 is Very Low thru to 4 being Very High

Here is an option by h1 to reduce the grass sprouting wave (select Very High in GrassFX to use this)

[GENERATION_4]
MAP_RESOLUTION = 2048
MAP_STEP = 0.5
MAP_SNAP = 1
PASS_0 = 0.25, 16
PASS_1 = 0.5, 8
PASS_2 = 1, 4
PASS_3 = 2, 2
PASS_4 = 4, 1

Here is my attempt at totally killing the wave within 100m of the car and just having a 'medium' level of grass everywhere.

[GENERATION_0]
MAP_RESOLUTION = 1024
MAP_STEP = 0.25
MAP_SNAP = 1
PASS_0 = 0, 0
PASS_1 = 0, 0
PASS_2 = 0, 0
PASS_3 = 0.5, 2
PASS_4 = 1, 1

It seems the first value other PASS_x is the density of the grass (lower denser) in that circle and the second value is the radius (1 being 100%, 2 is 50% etc)

As this is GENERATION 0 I need to choose Very Low in GrassFX to enable it. That way I can still use the regular CSP Very High when I want. No grass is sprouted in the nearest 3 circles so that wave effect is pushed to the far distance

What we have worked out is GrassFX is made up of 5 concentric circle, PASS_0 being the smallest and PASS_4 the largest
The MAP_RESOLUTION increases the 100% radius size. I found that I couldn't add more and more grass and a bigger radius because it seems to me that CSP puts a cap on the time taken to draw the grass (at 0.1ms in my case) or maybe it is just a cap on the total number of elements. It would be great to have the option to increase these by say a factor of 10.

As it is you still see a bit of grass popping into view on hillsides about 100m away but it is so much better than before.

Also CSP 0.3.x is still glitching so I am stuck on 0.2.12, turning off GrassFX in 0.3.x stops the glitching but I need grass.

Hope this helps anyone else who is plagued by 'chasing the grass wave'.

The file you can edit in Notepad is grass_fx.ini in ....assettocorsa/extension/config or put the section inside your user settings file under cfg/extension in your user folder as updating CSP will overwrite the one in assettocorsa/extension/config

What you find is 5 GENERATIONS which corespond to the Very Low to Very High settings in CSP GrassFX section
0 is Very Low thru to 4 being Very High

Here is an option by h1 to reduce the grass sprouting wave (select Very High in GrassFX to use this)

[GENERATION_4]
MAP_RESOLUTION = 2048
MAP_STEP = 0.5
MAP_SNAP = 1
PASS_0 = 0.25, 16
PASS_1 = 0.5, 8
PASS_2 = 1, 4
PASS_3 = 2, 2
PASS_4 = 4, 1

Here is my attempt at totally killing the wave within 100m of the car and just having a 'medium' level of grass everywhere.

[GENERATION_0]
MAP_RESOLUTION = 1024
MAP_STEP = 0.25
MAP_SNAP = 1
PASS_0 = 0, 0
PASS_1 = 0, 0
PASS_2 = 0, 0
PASS_3 = 0.5, 2
PASS_4 = 1, 1

It seems the first value is the density of the grass (lower denser) in that circle and the second value is the radius (1 being 100%, 2 is 50% etc)

As this is GENERATION 0 I need to choose Very Low in GrassFX to enable it. That way I can still use the regular CSP Very High when I want. No grass is sprouted in the nearest 3 circles so that wave effect is pushed to the far distance

What we have worked out is GrassFX is made up of 5 concentric circle, PASS_0 being the smallest and PASS_4 the largest
The MAP_RESOLUTION increases the 100% radius size. I found that I couldn't add more and more grass and a bigger radius because it seems to me that CSP puts a cap on the time taken to draw the grass (at 0.1ms in my case) or maybe it is just a cap on the total number of elements. It would be great to have the option to increase these by say a factor of 10.

As it is you still see a bit of grass popping into view on hillsides about 100m away but it is so much better than before.

Also CSP 0.3.x is still glitching so I am stuck on 0.2.12, turning off GrassFX in 0.3.x stops the glitching but I need grass.

Hope this helps anyone else who is plagued by 'chasing the grass wave'.

Have you posted this to the CSP Discord? It would be nice to have this in future updates

Is there sth. like a "Question Grampa" - if so some might say I'm getting there but(t) some questions come to my mind some from longer ago and so here's another one if nobody minds me asking.

I have modded the Lotus Elan in the past (car color) and now wanna add the legend Emma Peel as a driver to it - got a driver figure already but wanna have her face as well (giggity) on it. So how can I edit a face can I edit it with GIMP or do I need special software for that!? I have seen file called "driver_face" in other cars before so maybe that is the way!? Thx again!

So here's the file enclosed I created and I have seen that there is sometimes a file called "driver_face" in a car skin. So how can I add this face can I edit it with GIMP or do I need special software for that!? I am enclosing the file and if maybe someone wants to help I can upload the driver as well that I wanna use. Thx so much it would mean a lot cos I have always loved Diana Rigg so much and this is lil memorial in AC as for so many others that are gone by now. Thx again!

There isn't a single day in my life that I don't ask myself that same damn question.
