Assetto Corsa PC Mods General DiscussionPC

[Aaron Green]

I think I might have asked this before but I can't remember. When I'm trying to download a file and I keep hitting errors, ff you hit Try Again and it won't move past it so I hit skip and it goes to the next, skip, to the next etc., is that what you're supposed to do? Or when you hit the first one and try again doesn't work just cancel the operation and forget about it? The file in question is Pyyer's Daytona 2026 extension and it probably had 8-10 errors so I skipped them all and obviously the extension didn't install. This was the first one.

Walk me through it. What program are you using? And what are you pressing / where are you trying to extract the files to? I've never encountered that error extracting a zip/rar - it is fully downloaded (even though that wouldn't even extract if it wasn't). If all else fails try YouTube or Reddit.

Double click the file to open it and it says "content". I then cut and paste it into "assettocorsa". It starts installing and then hits these errors. There was another one saying something about cameras, one about flags_2023, something pyyer_2025, a Kn5, and probably 3 or 4 more that I forgot what they were about. His Patreon page has comments with other people having problems with it too.

Also his Portimao extension had some errors.

It would happen the same with these actual cars in the IRL Oulton Park, so this AI doesn't seem to be as wrong 😁

the AI's all end up in a barier... some setting on my end or a track issue?...

Yesterday I did a few laps on that track and everything went well, without pileups, although I did it with less powerful cars, like the Lotus 3-Eleven or the Mazda MX-5 Cup... Let's see if the problem is also related to the type of car being used.

Perhaps my question are very silly because it's so obvious, and I don't want to doubt you since you're a veteran here, and it's possible I haven't quite understood the problem, but... is that file you double-click a compressed file? Are you opening it without having decompressed it first?

Did do the usual couple of test drives after this update, with pre-war Grand Prix cars, nothing wrong. I’m on the 2:12 and included the vintage track mod from MrShock.
Think Perico Lospa could be right on this. If not who knows it could be another magical AI adjustment in CM that needs to be (un)selected?

Install 7Zip.
Open the compressed archive with it.

Drag the folder "content" of the archive to "assettocorsa" folder.
If the folder name is "cars" or "tracks", drag it to "assettocorsa\content" folder.

 

[Plexus22]

Plexus22 submitted a new resource:

Texture update for "meadowlands_84_87" by shin956 - Texture "meadowlands_84_87"

Here is a little skin "Alternative textures" for "meadowlands_84_87" by shin956.
I really like the tracks by Shin but they look too "clean" for my taste, especially for classic old tracks (no offence Shin, just my taste )
Did a few changes, nothing professional. Less contrast on Billboards, changed the road surface and kurbs, and darkened a bit the walls.
I used some textures from Sebring90 for the road textures that I merged with the original ones. If that is a problem let me know and I will...

I used the historic 1954-1972 layout as it comes without chicane, which is what I thought would be the biggest hurdle for a modern f1 car ...

Apart from too narrow tracks, or dirt/gravel surfaces, I imagine f1 pilots would be able to drive on any circuit (provided they can make the turns at lowest speed)... they just would adjust their driving style to the track ...
(and not change cars because the track is not 100% suited for their car)

Granted for the purists it's not done, but I bet IRL they would not all end up sidetracked as they would compensate for the condition at hand (something which the AI fails to do clearly).

AI lanes are there per layout , and these lanes dictate how the cars should drive , right?
So I imagine indeed this could be limiting to certain types of car ... or is it the car mod that is faulty for not braking soon enough?

EDIT: I also tried with a 1958 BRM Type 25 (brm_type_25 by GØD , v1.1 by ACTK), which is a car that drove there IRL and that too doesn't keep on track :

(but ACTK also did something to the AI of that car... )
The Cooper T43 '58 I have in v1.0 version of GOD (untouched by ACTK) , and that seems to stick to the track better...
Anyways, no biggie just wanted to report in case something is wrong w the track ai.

Very strange issue, whit this mod, the FFB goes completely crazy and I’m forced to exit the game. I’ve tried both with CSP enabled and disabled, but nothing changes.

This guys put a few weeks back a V8 mod that was mixture of other mods in AC with the Rfactor mod. Same with these i assume?

Yes, anything that guy is positing is just ports from other mods that he's charging money for. Just avoid his garbage stuff.

Hey, how did you record cars rotating in the CM showroom like that? I can't seem to get the showroom on full screen.

 

[chas1723]

Baby steps. I still need to figure out how to make a border layer for where the sand meets the grass and clean up some kerb edges, but it's getting there. Not sure if the sand on the left needs to extend out more.

Please can you try the attached fix, let me know?





Count me in. If you find good hints that we should add to the default cars, that'd be great. Parrilla didn't have time to tune the latest ones so input would be appreciated.

No luck here.

For the GTC Porsche 911 SWB shadow, this old trick works.

DOUBLE_FACE_SHADOW_BIASED = 1

does anybody have the old lods for the Ferrari 250 GTO Series II? despite the update one of the latest lods still has a bit of warping on the trunk.

Got the greenlight of CTDP for the release !

Still some stuff to tweak, but we're not far at all from a release

 

[SuperSportX]

Updated the CLK GTR SuperSport with all new channels for the exterior intake sounds:

https://www.gtplanet.net/forum/downloads/mercedes-benz-clk-gtr-supersport-1-0-release.7464/

Previous version would turn from stereo to mono under tunnels so this new version is much better along with fixed pitch for some of the sounds as they were abit off.



Will update the F1 LM, RGT and GT-ONE next and am nearly finished with the F50 GT but have to fix an issue where some of the AI most notably the F1 LM seem to have increased grip when the player is driving the car as the car seemingly tips over easily as if it wasn't fixed when only driving the F50 GT. I am doing 8 cars from every PGR4 class from A-E Class and once done I will reconfigure the career mode to be as similar as possible to PGR4 which I estimate will take around 1-3 months to complete after doing the cars.

Here is what I did. It's the same thing I've always done for these files. Double clicked on the extension folder.



Cut and pasted content



Into the assettocorsa folder and the installation procedure begins and then it started to hit those file errors one by one

Maybe you really should consider a clean CSP install. You always report that nothing works on your installation. And, we always stated here, you should avoid p212 since it is full of bugs.

We are talking about the crooked shadow under the car, right?
Looks shadowy here on track, 211.



So, everybody.
Are there other (newer than 212) magical CSP versions where all AI apps live happily togheter?

Actually, on my end, it was the ext_config.ini in the individual skin folder that messed up the shadows. I'm no guru at this, but it seems like a object nesting issue or something, when inserting the kn5 for the rims in the wrong place?

I replaced:
INSERT_AFTER=Object096
with
INSERT_AFTER=Object093

No clue, I just blindly apply the old trick whenever I see broken shadows. It overrides the skin's ini then, all my skins previews rendered with proper shadows.

Probably a mix of csp bugs between different versions, combined with bad luck. At least we now have several tricks to fix it.

Anyways, no biggie just wanted to report in case something is wrong w the track ai.

It's an old issue with the fastlane with this particular layout, saw your pic with F1s as well. Each time i tried to record a new fastlane for this particular layout it never saved it for some reason.

if you're familiar with the ai_hints.ini file, you could either add a BRAKEHINT hint, or increase the existing brakehint value, or add a MAXSPEED a dozen meters before they brake, etc...

That brakehint @ 0.5910-6700 is pretty high at 1.040. At 1.0 it would be normal, for a careful AI it would be perfect @ 0.98.
You can lower the regular HINT on the same position to a 1.0 as well to see if it fixes your issue.
But, depending on your car speed at this point, giving a MAXSPEED hint 25 meters before (see MAXSPEED_0, position 17 on my ai_hints file) would also fix the issue.

The AI fastlane overall is not too bad, but that spot is a nightmare for anything 250+ HP. It's been on my todo list for ages.

I'm not gonna sell my stuff (yet i will, see next sentence), but AIHintsReader app and AIWhisperer app could solve this in a few clicks. After you learn how to use them of course, which usually takes 4 months.

I just tried with F1 2010 and they passed it with my ai_hints.ini file, link below. If you're not familiar, save your version with a different name and extract mine here :

I do not drive modern Formula ones and i hate them with all my guts, therefore i cannot guarantee that this would fix your issue. I have no idea how your cars would deal with the last corner as well, worth checking values there as well.

Edit : i edited the last BRAKEHINT as well so it would go smoothly with faster cars.
