Tokyo R246 is here!
Stunning, especially at night.
Tokyo R246 is here!
Finally a WIP video of the 64km² map. Let's call it North Island for now... ^^
Copy of the video sub text:
This is a first work in progress, I mainly tried to create a workflow that suit the scope of the project.
It is a very early show : it's buggy, empty and unpolished, BUT it still start to looks like something that could work.
o what you see here is more than 20km hillclimb to the top of the main mountain that features an astronomical observatory. For comparison think it's roughly the same size as the Pikes Peak hillclimb... So not so bad.
What's next? First I will adress the most important : since it is a monumental task, my plan is to have this hillclimb released for free (with upgrade other time of course) and have the full island setting behind a patreon, with a new road/point of interest added every month. Then when it's completed, moving one to the next open world map!
With that out of the way, next video will probably features a nice Town and a huge suspended bridge that will be the access point from the continent... So stay tuned next month ;-)
Tell me what you think of the plan and the WIP so far. 👍

He stated on Race Department that he's still working on it and that includes the backgrounds, but you could tell him how it could look better if you want.Nice track! He is in dire need of aesthetic improvement.
I'm not a GT fan and I don't need cameras, filters, etc., the main thing is that the track looks and feels good and is enjoyable.
Some write it is necessary to add authenticity, but why? - this is Asseto, not GT!
I will ask the guys if they could update the track officially, but for now:...Sonoma hasnt been updated since v1.0, needs an update though cant drive the vrc indycars without trying to take off over the hill coming into the bowl......
Slovakia Ring:AI for Slovakia Ring:
An RD member requested a look at this track. AI seemed a little slow for some reason. I tested, then reworked all four layouts, and tested some more. I like the track, it's pretty cool. Four layouts.
orAI for Slovakia Ring
AI completely reworked for all four layouts. Nice track, enjoyable to drive. Track link: https://www.racedepartment.com/downloads/slovakia-ring.8945/ Thanks to @Kevin Troschinski for the link.www.racedepartment.com

Ironically, I've just spent some time poking around in the 904, and yours, and the Beck, to arrive at this untested suspicsion.It's a missing or empty electronics.ini file. Of course the car has no ABS or TC but the game still allows such a thing as an assist, I'd assume for gamepad users.
Without supplied values in this file the game seems to break and cause the reported problem.
The file can and should be present as it can be set to have ABS or TC as not available but the assist still needs a value to work with.
That's exactly what I meant and thank you so much, I've been trying to figure this out for like 6+ months at this point.It uses whatever preset you last used in the Preview Options screen (CTRL+P or CTRL+O, I think it is - away from the rig at the moment). That then stays as the preset in use for Update Previews (until you change it in the Preview Options screen). I think that is what you are asking?
Better make my 2000th post worth it...
it is slightly dark yes, you tried setting the sol exposure to something like 0.8?Fantastic conversion, but omitting the reverse route seems like an odd decision when it featured prominently in GT and was a very popular variation.
I guess adding it wouldn't be too hard for someone with the necessary skills.
Also, does everything look a little dark for anyone else, even in bright sun? Like wearing sunglasses?
I don't think it's my settings as most other tracks look fine.
Wouldn't that make it even darker (assuming default is 1.0)?it is slightly dark yes, you tried setting the sol exposure to something like 0.8?
your right my bad i meant 1.2Wouldn't that make it even darker (assuming default is 1.0)?
I also noticed that everything looks a bit dark. My current solution is Peter Boese's "pure". Looks fantastic during the day.Fantastic conversion, but omitting the reverse route seems like an odd decision when it featured prominently in GT and was a very popular variation.

I found I had to maximise ta_exp_fix, % to 175 on the last page of the Sol Config UI to get a natural-looking brightness for R246 in VR on my system.your right my bad i meant 1.2
Maybe Pure was originally used to tune the visuals.I also noticed that everything looks a bit dark. My current solution is Peter Boese's "pure". Looks fantastic during the day.
Yeah, I did that too (at 1.75) just to be safe, as I think the individual track adjustments in the Sol config can get wiped if you update Sol and follow the 'reset to defaults' advice that often comes with it.you can add
[SOL]
EXPOSURE_FIX=2.0
to the extenion ini
(i know it only goes to 1.75)
Settings: Weather Script "pure", ppfilter "pure", Exposure 100%, Time 14:48I went back to SOL for tokyo as PURE made it way too dark to see the corners coming up and i kept breaking my car in the wall of turn 1 😏 (I'm not a Gran Turismo aficionado so i don't know the track that well)
Will try this exposure fix tho
@chas1723 do you mind giving a hint why you rated this car as 💩 ? (if it wasn't a slip of the finger that is).This one is rather nice too, a Mercedes W202 DTM (AlexBfromG and tipitjafar):
