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.

Folder Name: estoril
Author: Mitja Bonca
Download: http://www.mediafire.com/download/hcneghyr3tvi9t4/Autodromo+do+Estoril+ver.0.6.rar
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.

Folder Name: Autodromo_do_Estoril
Author: SilvAfonso
Download: https://www.racedepartment.com/downloads/autódromo-do-estoril-1-0-wip.32454/
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.

Fuji International Speedway

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.

Folder Name: malagoli_fuji_speedway_gp
Author: Malagoli
Download: https://www.racedepartment.com/downloads/fuji-international-speedway.10440/
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:
akv8_goldcoast
Author: Terra21 / AKv8
Download:
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
Folder Name:
goodwood
Author: Tiago Lima
Download: https://www.racedepartment.com/downloads/goodwood-motor-circuit.2904/
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.

Folder Name: goodwood_circuit
Author: mantasisg
Download: https://www.racedepartment.com/downloads/goodwood-circuit.17228/
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.


Grand Valley Speedway

grand_valley
Author: Luis Silva Br improved by Deswribilator (I think this is ACF) and Calimero 0euf
Download: https://www.racedepartment.com/downloads/grand-valley-speedway.20304/
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.

Folder Name: acf_grand_valley
Author: ACF
Download: https://mega.nz/folder/d8RmGIDa#eNn1zMIK-Y9gAukU5zxsvg
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.

Download: https://app.box.com/s/k29ham9ak0uqmikax2fwszjien6bur10
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.

Folder Name: pk_gunsaitouge_enhanced
Author: Project Kaido
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.

Folder Name: pk_gunma_cycle_sports_center

Download: https://www.racedepartment.com/down...nter-aka-gunsai-touge-new-scratch-made.32941/
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.

Folder Name: acf_buenos_aires
Author: ACF
Download: https://mega.nz/folder/d8RmGIDa#eNn1zMIK-Y9gAukU5zxsvg
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.

Ok, so... Yeah... Trees growing through grandstands. Textures are either blurry or crusty. PS1 poly-count. Holes in the road. Bad. Don't Buy.

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.



I thought, you will miss this track:

EURO-RiNG (Örkény, Hungary)
It is a small multi-layout track, mostly for testing, and for gokart races.
Even when it was a round of the Hungarian Racing Championship, they run as a "flat Hillclimb" race.

Simracers could know it from Rfactor1.

There are 2 versions for Assetto Corsa.

Lucas-Mods:
https://www.lucas-mods.com/2019/08/assetto-corsa-euro-ring.html

Beke Tibor:
https://www.racedepartment.com/downloads/euro-ring-hungary.31516/

(And there is a third "very beta unreleased" version, which I tried to convert for myself, and I did it just over a week before Lucas released his track last year... :) )

I'm not sure, but I think all two version is come from Rfactor1, but Tibor Beke reworked it in Blender.
(Not sure, because there is an Rfactor2 version of the track, and they said only that convert from Rfactor...)
 
For those who are interested I released Phoenix Raceway conversion from Nascar Heat 4 in our FB group, Assetto Corsa Nascar Mod.

Thanks a lot for this conversion, you made a great job and I didn't know that NH4's tracks were so beautifuls, do you plan to convert the Charlotte's roval, such a beautiful track!
 
I think not many people got the point of what I was saying about encrypted mods. It's all about the authors rules. If you use someone's mod you should follow them, if you think that mod is crap and the model was not scratch made, you can always go get the model yourself and make your own mod after all. If you're better at making that than the original author then tlyour mod will bee better.
Just saying that encryption is bad doesn't solve anything, anyone can decide whatever he prefers about his mod.
I read about the Modding community plbeing open about people editing someone else's mod... Hmmm not really. In many games that supports mods, a lot of mod creators writes rules for their mods about not editing it or reposting it, the same rules that applies to AC mods. So here again I don't see anything different or far from "Modding community rules". You usually can't just edit someone else's work and it's a bit childish imo to think that everything you see can be yours and can be edited as you wish. Just appreciate the work as it was made, and if you don't like it, either give feedbacks or make it yourself.
You can like it or not but someone that makes something should choose to make it editable or not. Also many mods would not be encrypted or private if people could follow some simple rules. And I've never seen that happening so much in other modded games.

Where's the respect of the original author of the car and their rules? Be it Turn10/PD/Codemasters etc.

By your own logic if you don't like their rendition of the car you should build your own version of it from scratch, not just steal it.
 
Hey guys,need little help,i've seen a topic long time ago to get kseditor work in full hd resolution in full screen but can't find anything about it,anyone have any tricks for it? Tried to fiddle with ini file but still looks like amiga test drive full screen.
 
My logic says that if it's just stolen work, why don't you do it yourself instead of complaining because someone made it and don't like other people editing it. If you do it yourself you can do whatever you want with it
Your logic explains why - it’s easier.
You yourself didn’t make the model from scratch, because it’s easier to take the finished one made by Turn10. The other person does not take the Turn10 model, because it’s easier to take yours.
This is the same logic. But for some reason you make different demands on yourself and others within the framework of this logic.
If you want to change the world - start with yourself, show an example :)
No? Well, do not build from yourself what you are not.
There is a saying: you either remove the cross or put on your underpants. :)))
 
Yes, it's indeed easier, but if the author tells you to ask for permission first and you ignore it then you can expect someone encrypting or keeping private their stuff. If someone makes something can choose to do what he wants with it and nothing to do about that. I'm sure encryption began because people are too lazy to even read instructions so I think those people should show an example.
I just understand now why someone would encrypt their stuff, that's it
I've already seen a lot of people showing to not have even read the Readme file on the mod and that takes like thirty seconds

It's these arbitrary 'instructions' you keep going on about that really is grating with me.
Do you guys not bother to read the instructions from the original game devs about using their assets??!!

You very condescendingly preach about 'following basic rules' to us yet seemingly those same rules do not apply to you.
I can't fathom how you can't see how irritating that stance really is.

Whether or not i agree or even think it is that serious, what rippers are doing is stealing, fact.
So i think very least they can do in that case, is simply not get uppity about others simply wanting a nice preview like the rest of their cars on CM...

But it's a drama, a big "look at me!!"
It is always the same types of people doing it too. The kind that try to profit from it.

"if the author tells you to ask for permission first and you ignore it then you can expect someone encrypting"

It's a mod, we are not taking on a dog and all it's responsibilities, why in gods name should anyone read anything. least of all from someone who stole the model in the first place..
Why would i ask them permission to change the steering lock? Or steer assist settings?
You are paranoid because you mix with those types of people and you are all untrustworthy pirates, so you assume EVERYONE is like that.....truth..

And further more, the reason that some scratch made modders are encrypting is because of people like you, becasue they know if you will steal from Turn 10 etc then you will steal from them...and i don't blame them at all...

First of all: I'm not talking about myself so don't include me saying a generic "you". I'm just saying that I understand why someone would do it, that's it.
Then again, if someone is against stealing he shouldn't use those mods in the first place so why care about them?
It's also irritating to see something you spent time on being modified and then showed in public.
And again, I would like every encrypted mod to support at least cm showroom, I like to get previews too, and I don't know why some authors don't allow that but I don't care because it's their mod and they decided so.
I also would not do it for popularity or anything, I'm just making a mod for a videogame, not so much interesting about it

I give up......:banghead:

Yes, I will after I finish Dover that it's on final testing stages and maybe it is completed by the weekend, and after a little optimization of Phoenix. Nh4 tracks are hard you need to export object by object from unity then import in 3ds max and move it to x=0, y=0, z=0. Its a pain in the ass but the final result its greatful, after Roval im planing to convert The Gateway. Cheers.
 
@Shaun Clarke Just want to say the Radical is brilliant. Took it round Brands Hatch last night and it's pushed the Ginetta GT4 off the top spot in my favourites. You've done a great job on updating this. And the brakes feel so much better now and don't lock up at the slightest touch. Thanks again, and I'll get the Gulf skin released after my trip to Screwfix :D

All modder are thiefs and liar. Stealing models, physics, textures... telling you they worked with real drivers on the physics. Nobody can check if the modder has worked together with a real driver. Nobody of you has ever driven a racecar and can say: "yeah, that's true. It's the exact feeling, like i drove the real racecar last time." Nobody can comfirm that.
And how we know, the modder has scratchmade the model. He can hire a 3d modeler or buy a game ready 3d model from a modeler. So, all are pirates and cheater.:lol:

sure, most of us here probably haven’t driven an F1 car or a Le Mans prototype but there are a lot of us here who do have actual track experience in actual racecars and have enough context and experience to know when something is realistic or not to a certain degree.

Why in gods name should anyone read anything...
Alright I was just stating my point prior to this but what you have written is just too much.
Someone made that mod, made something for you to enjoy, you are only asked to read a file for 30 seconds and you don't want to? Expect people not releasing stuff anymore to you, that's just the worst attitude possible.
And then you added that I'm a paranoid and a pirate... Wth dude, what's your problem? Have I said anything wrong to you? Where's all that coming from?

"mix with those types of people" I said...you chose to be the defender of them so what am i supposed to think?

I do not want their terrible mods, what i would like is the good modders, the decent people to not go down the route of encryption because of thieves.
Which is my worry.
But you go ahead and encrypt your NFS rip.....be my guest.
Very few of the top modders encrypt their work... what does that tell you?
 
What do you think its the best TCR mod?I tried all those TCR,BTCC ,WTCC and to me rollovers BTCC feels the best but those are older cars and no animated wipers etc
But all of them are somehow too easy to drive,too much grip and aero IMO...
I agree. BTCC is the best for me aswell (but not all of the cars). I like the Maki and Delpinsky 3.0 as well, and then come the rest 5 or 6 packs from Rollovers and CIRaceonline for me. There is car here and there in those packs that is a nice drive (Honda from TCR V2 from Rollovers for example), but for the most part, they all drive quite similar, so it's like having 15+ versions of the same car. For variety i like to drive around in CIRaceonline's WTCC 2006,2007 cars. They drive similarly to modern ones, but at least look different. And i also think that the 2.0 version of ERL Copa Marcas are not bad at all. But in general like the older 80s, 90s and even 70s TC cars much more than the modern ones.

I still didn't hear from nobody how the Tommy78 ones drive compared to others. I bought the 1991 DTM Opel Omega from him and must admit it is a very nicely done car. It is seen from far away it's not a copy/paste job like a lot of mods today.
