Right been thinking this for a few days now, and I am going to come out and say it.

THANK YOU, THANK YOU ALL.

I say this, as you know I am passionate about UK mods for AC, as they always get left behind in the major sim companies, or if they do include them, they make a really bad attempt at them.

But I want to thank you all for is, not flaming / going at me/ calling my every step, which I got on another page.

It has been so refreshing for me to post updates on here and people been generally interested and not judguing me and re-calculation my triangles etc etc

On a certain page, I have been ripped to shreads is the best way to put it, and well it sent me to a dark place.

My intensions have always been:

To produce cars as close as possible to help IRL drivers save money
Save money so they can test in a sim and not on track ( as average test day is will in to the £2,000 mark)
Make the same as Adjustable so they can make a setup in a sim and take to track (This has been tested and proven in the Ginetta Supercup Mod)
To make more the UK cars are accessible and promoted to the world as losts of software companies don't look at grass roots racing. If they do, they don't do a good job and represent them poorly.
To engage with IRL drivers/teams for their benefit as I can adapt any of my mod to suit their needs
To enjoy what I do and have fun.
To keep it free.

So again, thank you all hear, as not one, seriously one person has critised any of my posts, and I know on a certion place, I would of been cut to peices in seconds

Yeah, unfortunately there can be a lot of infighting between sim racers and modders, and like in all walks of life a lot of unpleasant people with axes to grind. I've never really understood it - we are all in this together because we share a common love of sim racing and modding, but I guess people are just people and you get nice ones and not-so-nice ones. Unfortunately the latter seem to make the most noise - just like in real life.

Is there a way to make the new Daytona track working for non CSP users?
Is there some files i must delete or others little things i could do on my side?

Like for recent masterpiece Road America by Lilski that add a lot, a lot, for CSP user but work fine for non CSP users too?
Try this, it should work. Rename the file "\rt_daytona\sportscar\data\camera_facing.ini" to something else to keep as a backup. Same for the oval layout file.

But really, if you disable all CSP options and only enable the performance enhancing ones, you should actually gain FPS by running CSP not lose any.
 
@Shaun Clarke I'm happy you finally found your way over here, and can I just say this place is full of decent, friendly and helpful people who just want to make mods and race and enjoy their hobby. I've learned loads and met lots of amazing people through here and as sad as it sounds this place has actually helped me through some tough times in RL. Welcome and I'm looking forward to the updated Radical - still haven't started any skins for it yet but in the next few days I will make a start.

Amen to that. I think most new car and track mods will be specifically designed to take advantage of CSP features.

Don't know why but i already try to use CSP with lower settings than my vanilla settings and for a reason i cannot understand, i still got black screen...

If it could help solve this problem, i got black screen with csp, most of the time when my car crash in another car or an armco, weird but that's a fact, if i make a straight ahead in an armco at 300 km/h, black screen of death and reboot, like in real life you will say but it's annoying :)

some cars like those of URD use lot of feature from CSP but still work great without.
For tracks too, look the Road America, it is the same, you got more feature if you use csp but without it work and that's great for non csp users :)

That's really strange! Sorry I can't help further with that :confused:
 
Before I go any further down the rabbit hole of re-working a drifty car because I can't find the car I want, are there any good Nissan (Datsun) 240Z road race centric mods out there other than the two on Assttoland? I already have those and they're not what I'm looking for so I'm working on my own but I rather not re-invent the BRE "wheel". The livery and the model are both WIP but if it's already out there...View attachment 923076


I have a few 240Z.
Give me a small shout, if you want to try them. Maybe these two?

You are a genius! :)
It work now!
So happy to enjoy this great track too! :)
Thanks thousand times mate! :)

And perhaps we could get the Nascar Car from Lilski, we chat by pm about it since hours but he isn't proud of it, he got really high level of exigence but who know?
 
Here's Volume 2 of the Duplicate Environment Assetto Tracks Handpicked or DEATH (I still don't have a real name for this)

Volume 1 - A

Bahrain
Folder name
: bahrain
Author: ACU
Download: http://www.mediafire.com/download/k6etbjx5450k8tz/ac_bahrain_v.1.01.rar
I am pretty sure this is another F1 Codemasters conversion. It's really high quality and I can't really find anything wrong with it aside from the fact that it doesn't have any lights for night racing, but it's very solid anyway.

Folder name: bahrain_night
Author: simracersjapan.jp
Download: http://www.simracersjapan.jp/nightpack.rar
This one is pretty much the same but adds a night mode. The night mode is a custom weather rather than with the custom shaders patch. The lights don't work when CSP is active. Otherwise it's pretty much the same.

This one seems exactly like the above one but it works with custom shaders patch instead of the custom weather.

This track is a further rework of the other versions. It's got lights, and the endurance variant that wasn't included with the other ones, and updated sponsor skins. It's extremely well done and my favorite of the four.


Baku
Folder name
: baku_16
Author: dpeters95
Download: https://www.racedepartment.com/downloads/baku_16.12213/
This track was originally created for rFactor 2 by dix-racing.pl. I actually really like the Baku circuit, which is probably an unpopular opinion, but I find it really fun to drive and interesting to look at. This rendition of it is lacking in the graphics department, mostly with the trackside buildings being flat with blurry textures. The major flaws though are the inaccuracies with the elevation changes and track width. It's mostly flat in this version, while the real one has some hills. This version of the track does come with DRS zones which is nice. This version was fine when no others existed, but now that Terra21's is here I'll probably never revisit this one again.

Folder name: baku
Author: Terra21
Download: http://www.mediafire.com/file/63660zt6ws2nsj7/baku.rar
Now this is one beautiful track. The buildings are incredibly detailed, and the track's elevation is all accurate. Baku might be a boring race to watch, but it's an excellent track to drive on, especially if you use this one. For me, this is my choice.

Folder name: mania2017-baku
Author: paul12451 / f1-mania.ru
Download: https://www.mediafire.com/?sdc12dbibfm6tdo
This one just seems like it's a direct rip of the Terra21 version with some f1-mania.ru logos around. I can't see any difference.

Folder name: baku_2019
Author: patrikpat
Download: https://mega.nz/#!JuZgmarB!zrs3jhX9t3A_LlHooEZ1laX3K0EBUx7Kd-iFH15NSS4
This one also appears to be a rework of the terra21 version and it has some weird colored lighting that colors a lot of the buildings red. It's more noticable on the tight streets than the open areas. Maybe I have a bad ini file for it or something. It looks pretty weird. This isn't present if you're not using CSP/Sol.


Barber Motorsports Park
Folder name: barber_motorsports_park
Author: Terra21
Download: http://www.mediafire.com/file/2rwf83moefoaio1/barber_motorsports_park.rar
This version of the track has a very rFactor look to it. The track mesh is also not very smooth, so it's very hard to drive an indycar here. The trees are also pretty repetetive. It's not ugly, it's just not refined. Track lights look really weird and have a fake glow texture and aren't actually lights (tried at night, the place was pitch black)

Folder name: vrc_alabama
Author: VRC
Download: Pay Mod https://vrc-modding-team.net/show/22
Now this is refined. This version is fantastic. Textures are sharp, trees look great, and the track surface is as bumpy as the real place looks on tv. Definitely download the skin pack from racedepartment to have the proper sponsors and branding since it's a pay track so it had to go with a generic fictional name. This track is easily worth the cash they ask for it.

Barcelona
Folder Name: barcelona/barcelona-nacional
Author: Albert McSaltens
Download: https://www.racedepartment.com/downloads/circuit-de-catalunya.3328/
This track is from before Kunos released the dream pack 2 DLC. It's fine, it just doesn't compare to the Kunos version. This has 2 of the variants.

Folder Name: catalunya_acu
Author: ACU
Download: http://www.mediafire.com/download/tmncqtw2u7scgz7/ac_catalunya_v.1.01_acu.rar
This is another codemasters conversion and it's exactly like the other ones, very good. Just one track variant though, the GP layout.

Folder Name: ks_barcelona
Author: Kunos
Download: Included with the Dream Pack 2 DLC
Everyone has used this one. It's great. If you have the DLC, use this one. If you don't, buy it. If you can't, the ACU one is the next best thing.

Bathurst
Folder Name: bathurst
Author: unknown
Download: https://sharemods.com/a2uskwcmqxos/bathurst.7z.html
The surroundings don't look great, lap timer resets when crossing the line but no laps are recorded (missing checkpoints), the track is too wide, the track is too bumpy, the trees look flat. I don't remember where I got this version and it doesn't have a readme so I have no idea who made this.

Folder Name: bathurst_acu
Author: ACU
Download: http://www.mediafire.com/download/42tfnynvmbn47kd/acu_bathurst_1.01.7z
This version is really good. I think it's a conversion from rFactor 2 (He also did a shift conversion, so I'm not sure if this is rF2 or Shift to be honest), and aside from the Kunos banners all over the start of the track it looks really good, all while maintaining a great frame rate. I really like this version

Folder Name: bathurst_fm7
Author: Terra21 & Jim LLoyd
Download: https://www.mediafire.com/file/y4scpcytw22l95v/bathurst_fm7.rar
If this version of the track didn't exist I'd pick the ACU version, but since it does, this is the best version of Bathurst available right now. Trackside details are perfect, the AI is decent, lighting is spot on, and since it's a conversion from Forza Motorsport 7, the attention to detail is incredible. There's lots of skins available for it, and it comes with 3 track variants. The only complaint I have at all is that it doesn't maintain a full 90FPS (important for VR) for the whole lap, but it does through most of it. Despite that, this is a great version.

Blackwood
Folder Name: blackwood
Author: Tiago Lima
Download: https://www.racedepartment.com/downloads/blackwood.2639/
This is a conversion of a track from Live for Speed and it's a really fun circuit. Trackside objects look fine, and the grass looks good too. It performs nicely and I don't really have anything bad to say about it. It also includes a bunch of layouts.

Folder Name: blackwood_reloaded
Author: GrandSurf
Download: https://www.racedepartment.com/downloads/blackwood-reloaded-uhd-version.5804/
This version is another conversion of the same track and everything looks better. The grass, the trees, the buildings, everything. Lighting for night racing has been enabled and all of the eye candy looks good at a solid 90FPS. The only downside is it only has the main layout. Hopefully this gets expanded by the community, since it seems like it hasn't been updated by the author since 2015.


Brands Hatch
Folder Name: brands hatch
Author: thestrobe8
Download: https://www.racedepartment.com/downloads/brands-hatch.2352/
Trees that are cut in half vertically, really strange lighting, badly textured buildings, inaccurate track layout, hotlap starting point starts you on the grass on the other side of a barrier... you can skip this one.

Folder Name: brands-hatch / brands-hatch-indy
Author: Albert McSaltens
Download: https://www.racedepartment.com/threads/brands-hatch.90170/
This version of the track is pretty basic. The track layouts are accurate and the trackside buildings near the start are nice, but the trees are very repetitive and just behind the first layer of trees is a really obvious flat wall of trees which I am sure was done to help performance, but it doesn't look very nice and I wasn't able to maintain 90FPS throughout the lap anyway, even just by myself. I'd look for a more optimized and better looking version, myself.

This is a fantastic mod track. The textures look great, the buildings are highly detailed, it performs better than the other two, and the trees aren't repetitive. Overall this is the one to get if you don't have the dream pack 3 DLC.

Folder Name: ks_brands_hatch
Author: Kunos
Download: Dream Pack 3 DLC
Just like Barcelona, this is the version to use. Kunos knows what they're doing and have produced a faithful recreation of this place. It's the best looking version available, best performing version available, and if you're playing online, the most used version as well. This one is my pick.


Brasilia
Folder Name: acf_brasilia
Author: ACF
Download:
This is a fun technical track and this version of it is great. All of the details are spot on, and comparing it to videos of the real life track it looks just right. It's a little bumpy, but I think it's supposed to be.

Folder Name: erl_brasilia
Author: Evolution Racing League
Download: https://www.mediafire.com/file/su6d6joh5kpia5p/erl_brasilia_V11.rar/file
To my eye this appears to be a modified version of ACF's version, with some texture changes. Some bugs and artifacts like pink transparent surfaces showed up during this modification so I'd recommend using ACF's version instead.

There is another Brasilia track out there by thestrobe8 but I can't find a download link to it anywhere. If you've got it, I'd appreciate the ability to try it out!


Bristol Motor Speedway
Folder Name: bristol_motor_speedway
Author: llamafett
Download: https://www.racedepartment.com/downloads/bristol-motor-speedway.18115/
This version of Bristol has some graphical flaws like pink transparencies and the AI is pretty bad. AI Cars don't want to take off from the line, and just generally don't know how to drive the track.

Folder Name: aa_Bristol

Download: https://mega.nz/file/86QRTSZR#rukG1J-IRBR8EId6aSc_wkFQGJ44Zgz-poFFYUFdNiI
This one looks slightly less detailed than the llamafett version but it doesn't have any bad transparency textures, and the AI is a little better. It does have track lights for night racing, this is the only version with this feature.

Folder Name: bristol_motor_speedway
Author: Legion (@GzeroD)
Download:
This one appears to be a rework of the llamafett version (Please correct me if I'm wrong) with all of the graphical artifacts fixed, way better AI, and some new textures. Also added is a new layout with a clay racing surface. One thing I REALLY liked about this version is how the start positions are placed. They are all at the side of the track at a 45 degree angle similar to an old fashioned Le Mans start. This really helps in starts with the AI. In a traditional grid the AI has no idea how to start (since AC doesn't have rolling starts) but this mitigates the problem quite nicely. This track is my choice for Bristol and if lights were added for night racing I'd be in heaven. The biggest flaw with this track is the folder name, to be honest. It's a huge peeve of mine when multiple mods have the same folder name. I wish it were standard to name a track with author's initials, underscore, and then the track name. There would rarely be conflicts if everyone stuck to that rule.


Brno
Folder Name: brno
Author: Sneer
Download: https://www.racedepartment.com/downloads/brno.2584/
This version of the track is fine. It looks good for the time it was released but it's a bit bland by today's standards, especially the grass and the road texture. Racing on it feels great. There aren't any lights for night racing.

Folder Name: brno_circuit
Author: Malagoli
Download: https://malagoligarage.wordpress.com/2016/04/11/brno-circuit-v-1-1/
This version of the track is fantastic. It does the same things right that the first one does, but it also adds lights, better textures, better grass, and an overall better feel.



how do i get the bathurst_fm7 wet to work?
 
@Shaun Clarke Only just found your existence in the real world on Facebook and then you made your presence known here on GTPlanet.
Your post sort of cleared things up as to why you disappeared from race department after the Leon (v1.7 was it?)
It's great to see you in the world, I've been a regular over on your website as your cars are very much among my favourites.
I don't talk much here but have read every. single. post and can honestly say it's been good overall, there's been the odd troll, even recently. But overall this place is really welcoming.
Here's hoping you've found a new place to stick around.

This statement is why I enjoy coming to GTP. I was late to AC, only about 6 months ago, and after finding CM one can get overwhelmed quick. I don't post a lot but I do a ton of reading and trying to learn how to do things myself. What has impressed me here is that people share openly their knowledge to help people rather than make themselves "look better" Someone posts a mod and almost immediately there's a comradery to improve upon it if they can or to offer advice without the usual negative belittling.
 
Fellow modders, what are good resources for finding additional textures and materials other than the standard Kunos set?:confused:
Sorry I forgot to reply to this earlier...What kind of textures are you looking for?

You could start by looking at some of these sites
https://www.wildtextures.com/
https://www.deviantart.com/grungetextures/gallery Also look through the whole of DeviantArt but this was a page I found useful in the past
https://www.artstation.com/

There's also a certain russian 3dmodel site that has huge texture packs ripped from a few racing games but I'm not allowed to link that one here :D
 
Hi FireBall. Sadly, I can't help you, but I can tell you I also copied/pasted the weatherfx file after the CSP wrong version affaire. To be honest, I really don't see that being the problem, I just wanted to confirm you that the collage worked fine on my end.
Thanks Gerberger, I guess I'll have to bite the bullet and try to do a file integrity check, figure out which mods will have to be re-installed after and if that doesn't fix it live with it. At least it hasn't affected my gameplay so far.
 
It is legal, thanks for the help..not. I've only had this error for the last week, noticed it after updating csp and copying over the weather_fx.ini

If it is legal and you just update to the latest build, you won't need the weatherFX file fix and all should be well again.
 
Hey Guys

Daytona International Speedway 1.0 by the Reboot Team

https://www.mediafire.com/file/tsrje49tpphqcdn/rt_daytona.rar/file


This one has been a labour of love for the Team, so here it is and we think its a fantastic addition (and the most accurate version to date) to the AC Track Roster, its a tad heavy on performance which is in part mostly due to the nature of this track with everything (there's a lot of it) being in view most if not all of the time. that said we squeezed as much as we possibly could to give everyone the best experience possible.

THOSE LOOKING FOR MAXIMUM FPS WITHOUT ANY OF THE FRILLS - PLEASE REDUCE YOUR WORLD DETAIL SETTINGS TO HIGH

A sincere thanks to all the guys and girls who worked on this (you know who you are) you did a fantastic job putting in hours of your time to get this to were it is today.

Most of all enjoy and spread it around - Just please use the provided link - so any updates can be easily added to this link (and there will be some coming i'm sure)

Amazing stuff! Always loved this track & loved the Sonoma update.

By the by, are you or anyone with knowledge willing to take a stab at fixing Detroit Belle?
 
Right been thinking this for a few days now, and I am going to come out and say it.

THANK YOU, THANK YOU ALL.

I say this, as you know I am passionate about UK mods for AC, as they always get left behind in the major sim companies, or if they do include them, they make a really bad attempt at them.

But I want to thank you all for is, not flaming / going at me/ calling my every step, which I got on another page.

It has been so refreshing for me to post updates on here and people been generally interested and not judguing me and re-calculation my triangles etc etc

On a certain page, I have been ripped to shreads is the best way to put it, and well it sent me to a dark place.

My intensions have always been:

To produce cars as close as possible to help IRL drivers save money
Save money so they can test in a sim and not on track ( as average test day is will in to the £2,000 mark)
Make the same as Adjustable so they can make a setup in a sim and take to track (This has been tested and proven in the Ginetta Supercup Mod)
To make more the UK cars are accessible and promoted to the world as losts of software companies don't look at grass roots racing. If they do, they don't do a good job and represent them poorly.
To engage with IRL drivers/teams for their benefit as I can adapt any of my mod to suit their needs
To enjoy what I do and have fun.
To keep it free.

So again, thank you all hear, as not one, seriously one person has critised any of my posts, and I know on a certion place, I would of been cut to peices in seconds

Dude, you're like a Santa Claus of sim modding. It's a shame a certain group of people elsewhere don't appreciate the passion & hard work you put in. You're definitely very much appreciated & i've had nothing but fun with your work. Thanks man 👍
 
If it is legal and you just update to the latest build, you won't need the weatherFX file fix and all should be well again.
Of course it's LEGAL, I even posted a screeny of my steam account where you can clearly see it in my game list. Irrelevant anyways, I did a file integrity check and that cleared up the issue.

Hey... I wasn't questioning if it was legal. All I meant was, if it was a cracked version, my suggestion may not work. That's all.
