Baked in skybox causes weird shadow issues with CSP. Other than the weird shadows and skybox this is not that bad and some of the trackside details look pretty nice.

Colors are a lot brighter here and there are 4 track variants. No baked in skybox so shadow issue is fine. Trackside details are a little nicer too. This is the one to get.

This track showed up in this very thread with no author details so I don't know who made it. It's pretty rough overall. The textures are pretty blurry and repetitive and the road surface is bumpy. The lighting is pretty harsh too. This track needs some love applied to it.

This one isn't perfect, but it's a lot better looking than the other one. I think they probably came from the same source and converted them independently. This one is bumpy in spots the other one isn't but overall it's the better version. I'd love a good version of this track.

Estoril

Textures are a bit blurry and the mountains kind of glow. Everything is a little bit too bright, and all of the trackside stuff is a bit low poly. I think this is a really early mod track conversion from a much older game.

The textures in this one look great, the grass also looks really good. The trackside objects also look better and it's overall attention to detail is fantastic.

This claims to be a continuation of the Mitja Bonca version but so far is just the same exact version reuploaded by a different person to RaceDepartment claiming they now have permission from ISI to post and work on the conversion. We'll see if this sees any development.

The lighting is a bit rough and the track surface gets pretty bumpy in spots. It's a good start but it needs a lot of work.

This one is a bit better, especially in the lighting department but the road is also smoother. It has it's flaws though and it appears to be abandoned after one alpha release. There's no DRS zones on this one either. It's a shame we don't have a really good complete modern Fuji (unless there's another one I don't know about?)

Gold Coast
Folder Name:

Author: Terra21 / AKv8

Despite there being a ton of buildings and trackside objects this track maintains a high framerate throughout and is very bright and colorful. The racing surface is good, and it's an excellent track to race on. This is the one to get.

Folder Name: FVRGoldCoast2011
Author: FVR
Download: readme file says not to share it.
A lot of the buildings have very blurry textures and it's overall not very well put together. It looks like an rFactor track. The road surface is bumpy and full of holes and it's not worth getting.


Goodwood Circuit

goodwood
Author: Tiago Lima

This is a pretty rough conversion. The racing surface is good but textures are bright in a harsh way and the trees look faker than most. The track surroundings are all just really ugly and the framerate is terrible. It dipped below 45FPS in spots. Not recommended.

This version of this track is just magnificent! It is built from aerial LIDAR for elevation data and it's had a lot of love and time in crafting a really nice version of this track. Trackside details are beautiful and it's perfect. Definitely get this one.

This isn't a gran turismo conversion, it's a scratch built re-creation of the old Gran Turismo track built for rFactor and then converted and improved upon by various AC modding folks. It's got some pretty bad textures, stretched out signs, and it's overall not very nice looking, but it's still nostalgic to take an econobox out and drive the piss out of it. It's great fun. It also comes with a wet variant, but no reverse layouts and no short layout, and no lights fornight racing.

This is the same track as above, just improved upon further by ACF. Night mode and the short layout has been added. No reverse layouts though. I'd love to see work continue on this because there's still some bad texture issues (especially in tunnels or around rocks) but it's a good improvement. This is the version to get.

This is basically your standard conversion from an older game and the textures are pretty harsh and bright. Lots of stretched out textures and generic trees. This is a good start and could definitely be built upon but as it is right now it's just not up to modern standards.

Folder Name: grobnik
Author: Mitja Bonca
Download: https://www.racedepartment.com/downloads/automotodrom-grobnik.4835/
This version is another conversion of an rFactor version of this track and it looks like a lot of time and care went into getting textures and lighting just right. The grass looks a bit weird but overall it's a really nice looking version of this track. This one is my pick.

Gunsai Touge
Folder Name:
gunsai-touge
Author: thestrobe8
Download: https://www.racedepartment.com/downloads/gunsai-touge.2379/
This has the look of a typical rFactor conversion, very low poly, harsh textures, really ugly trees, and no attention to lighting at all. The track surface is very sharp on elevation changes and it's just not very good. There's also a hole in the track that my RX-7 fell through and legend has it that it's still falling this very day.

Folder Name: gunsaiv16autumn
Author: Masaboo
Download: https://www.racedepartment.com/downloads/gunsai-touge-autumn-version.8819/
This one suffers from the same issues as the thestrobe8 version, but has an autumn theme so everything is a glowing radioactive yellow color for some reason. And some of the walls don't have collisions enabled.

Download: https://www.racedepartment.com/downloads/gunsai-touge-enhanced.28899/
This is a rework of thestrobe8's version but so much has been changed that it's hard to call it a rework. It's beautiful! The trees, the grass, the surroundings, the buildings... it's hard to believe this came from the same source. The road surface is improved but it's still rough on some spots with a sharp elevation change.

Project Kaido had done all they could with the rFactor conversion they were working with for the enhanced version so they went back to the drawing board and built this new version from scratch and it's spectacular. The visuals are incredible and while they did a great job fixing up that old conversion they topped themselves with this one. Track-side rocks look awesome in this one, the buildings, the road surface, and the trackside objects are all perfected in this brand new version. Definitely try this out. For how good it looks and how long it took to load (I thought something was wrong since it was taking so long) I expected the frame rate to be bad but it stayed at a solid 90 the whole time. I am super impressed with this track and it's my pick for this one.


Addendum
Over time, I acquire tracks that give me duplicates after I've finished the volume. I'm adding those to the volumes they belong to but I'm also going to add them here at the end of whatever volume I'm working on at the time so people can catch them.

This is a pretty solid track with only a few flaws. some of the road texture variations are a bit abrupt and the flags look a little weird, a few sign textures are stretched to the wrong aspect ratio and the 3d grass objects are kinda bad looking but overall it's fine.

This is ACF's rework of lebastia85's track and it takes the track from "just fine" to "excellent". The grass is much improved and the signs are fixed. The weird flags are still there and now the sand looks bright white, but that's really all I can find wrong with it. The extra track layouts are also a plus. Definitely drive this version.

This track is converted from the same source that the Gilles75 version was converted from but manages to be a decent looking and decent running track. I don't particularly like this track because of all the chicanes but if I was going to drive on this track this would be the only version for me.


Thank you for this one. I was secretly hoping for a decent modern Fuji, but it seems like, that we are stuck with these versions.
 
I've done two wheel physics and it does work, but it can't be used as the force feedback would need to be coded differently and we would all need very strong and latency free force feedback handlebars to control it.
To turn a bike left you push on the left handlebar, initially this turns right but as the force builds up this goes back to the left and your angle of turn is determined buy how much force you are applying to the handle bars.
This is not a linear relationship and that force varies with speed and all the other dynamics on a bike and indeed can reverse.

A bike is required to lean to turn but you DO NOT lean a bike to turn.
Body weight is moved on a bike to alter the CoG but predominately it is to make sure you are in the right position to maintain those forces on the handlebars.
You DO NOT lean/hang down off a bike, you lean/hang out perpendicular to the bike, which happens to be down as the bike is leaning.
 
Bit of a weird request but does anyone have the data.acd / data folder for the rollovers_nissan_dpi ? Had that mod on my computer for as long as I can remember and mistakenly deleted the data folder a while ago (can't quite remember when; though...).

I'll add the OG Laguna Seca files (ai/data) if it's not too much to ask- installed the Reverse Layouts and the modder didn't mention anything about creating a specific folder for reverse LS so it overwrote KS' Laguna Seca and it's pure *****. Thanks mate.

No one ? Alright. I'll go ***** myself then.
 
Just asking if there is anything like this for Assetto anywhere ?

+1 on this. For what it's worth, I took really sensitive data from real GT4 mustang teams about their setups and implemented them in game. Could I have encrypted the car? Sure. But that goes against my principles for modding. This is a community and if we're developing mods for free, let everything be free. People will know where to get the proper updates from, or hell, you might even get people that come along and make the mod even better. In my case, I took GzeroD's GT4, gave it my physics data, he updated a bunch of stuff for me after, and then Norms took notice and made it look even better. THAT is what the modding community is about imo. I won't download encrypted mods anymore for this reason, not even guerilla's stuff, which, I kind of expect them to rip my physics data at some point for their own GT4 at some point. But that's fine, I still prefer GzeroD's 3d model since it doesn't have the big 'ol number plate blocking my view in the windscreen :D
:lol::lol::lol:brilliant
 
Basic rules are for example, to not edit the car 3d model, to not edit the shaders or configs, to not rehost it on websites where the author doesn't want the car to be posted, to not edit the mod and then release without asking the authors permission first, if a official link for sharing the mod is provided by the authors you shouldn't just host it somewhere and make a new link to share, if the authors are still improving the mod you should report any issue or possible improvement to them instead of making your own "improved" version and release it because then some people will have one version of the car and some will have another one.
These requirements sound strange and funny even if we are only talking about a mod platform. Since this is precisely the point of modding - the ability to change what you want. Some people come to AC in order to make their versions of mods, and another part - in order to use them. And then someone appears who says "I forbid you to do what you are here for. I can use the 3D model from Forza, but you can’t use the 3D model from my mod" Lol :)
Why???
And it becomes stupid and arrogant.

You come to a community that already has some rules of relationships. So accept them, and do not try to remake for your own vanity.

Encrypt the mods is stupid. I want edit to optimise them. Most of the mods are crap and need a whole overhaul. Can't believe the modder are this arrogant and think they are doing their work right or think the work they have done is correct. It needs to be optimised and reworked, that it has the quality it needs. It is a mod, mods are for the community and the community knows what's right and what we need. That's it.
 
No need to be so ****ty. You can't expect everyone to jump to attention at the click of your fingers. But because I'm in a helpful mood...

This is the entire Rollovers Endurance IMSA pack. You may find the data file you're after in here:

Some unknown ned asks for a paid mod / another mod and gets shot down almost instantly but I ask for something legit and get ignored. Aye. Sound that.
Anyway. Cheers mate. Suppose I have to run an integrity check to get the Laguna Seca data back ? Afraid that it'll **** either SOL / CSP or both at the same time.

Well, since a lot of the world was sleeping in the time since you posted your request, it's not entirely surprising. Anyway, portakal has come to your rescue, so now you can practice being happy again. :)
 
I wonder if the encryption brigade have ever considered just releasing a genuinely good mod, you know one that doesn't have myriad issues and therefore doesn't need to be fixed by others. It's funny how you rarely seem to see people trying to re-release or edit mods by A3dr, Fat Alfie, Aphidgod etc.

Anyway, as Legion and others already said, there's genuinely no defence for encryption whatsoever, it's the height of hypocrisy. The moment you steal a model from another game/individual, you lose all rights to complain when someone does the same to you. This community only thrives through sharing of models, data, guides and the like, selfishness and ego only serves to degrade it.

Also, for those with encrypted content, I'm interested to see how you'll feel about it in 6/12/18 months time if/when a new CSP/SOL update causes your favourite car to stop working, then you go begging to the original author to update it only to find they've moved on to something else.

Attitude is (almost) everything. Especially when asking for favours. If you didn't get help/ignored just ask again politely in my opinion.
Still, I'm in favour of de-escalation when possible. We get some amount of flaming posts. I'd like to keep it to minimal.

Totally agree with you portakal – and especially about the "attitude is everything" bit. I'm constantly amazed by how little effort some people put into being just reasonable and pleasant when asking for other people to do things for them. And it really isn't that hard.

Agree. What they think? They are the modding experts?
Converting models, reworking them, adding new 3d parts, optimise them and then they think they have done a work that need to be protected, because nobody is allowed to continue using their little effort, already seems arrogant.
 
I forget at this moment who it was who posted the link for the 1986 F1 mod, but I just want to say "thank you."
It's not perfect, but it's more than good enough for me to have tremendous nostalgia-filled fun, driving it, especially on the 1988 mod tracks.
