Something nerdy for us all classic F1 fans in the forum... yes the all five of them haha...

1982-1984 sponsors skins for Kyalami_1967 track. I also did these for rj_kyalami_1976 but these are a bit improved. I use this track version in my seasons as it's less crashy. Correct Marlboro bridge and improved the hand painted WesBank 1980's logo. All old Shell signs replaced with 80's logos, etc. Nothing special but I love playing my 1982, 1983 and 1984 seasons through and through and small nerdy details make it even better. I don't want to see any 60's stuff. After I modded the SD cars' suspension Kyalami 1967 is pretty much crash free now.

And here's a special one. The last race of 1981 and 1982 was Caesars Palace. Completely exhausted Nelson Piquet cemented his 1981 WDC there after Carlos Reutemann had a disastrous race. In 1982 Keke Rosberg was crowned a World Champion here.

It's a track that was built over a parking lot in Las Vegas. Many people say it's the worst F1 track ever but it's actually pretty cool to drive. The ads are absolutely spot on. The author is "Anonymous". He also made very good Dallas 1984 track. They are not pretty though and very basic but hmm... clean and driveable.

We improved the ai with pekkehe and it's now much less of a crashfest. It had so many crashes that it ruined my 1982 season finale. Now it's much better. Not perfect but very much improved. I had a 25 lap race and only 6 retirements hehe.

It's pretty hardcore that we have tracks like this on AC. Whoever "anonymous" the track creator is, I salute you. This is a piece of F1 history and this circuit should be in everyone's collection (if you're a F1 fan). And it's niche hardcore stuff like this that make Assetto Corsa (as a game and "historic racing platform") forever irreplaceable.

Here's some info of it:


Here's the improved track.

And of course check my classic F1 seasons if you haven't. The more people get involved, more they improve. I'm not much of a modder but I'm passionate. :D

PS: Here's the Dallas 1984. It's probably the best street circuit ever. It was only held in 1984 and Keke Rosberg won the race in crazy heat with completely uncompetitive Williams. The race itself was one of the most entertaining F1 races ever. Watch it! Mansell, Lauda, Prost and Warwick all led the race at some point. Senna was doing fine in his Toleman too until he crashed to the concrete wall. This track is from the same author as Caesars Palace. I really enjoy racing this one too.


And oops... here are the Kyalami_1967 1982-1984 sponsor skins.

Is it possible to paint the curbs in black and yellow? They were in '85 at least

This is the 1982 version of the track.

These are how the curbs looked. I think they're accurate now. I can, however, check if I find it from the textures and make black and yellow ones for you.



The biggest visual annoyance is that there is no TV camera replay (number 7) at all. If someone can add it, it'd be great.

Ah sorry... This happens when you're not precise, sorry, I meant for Kyalami

Really sorry dude

No problem my friend.

The problem is that we don't have a F1 1985 season (yet). I have very good 1985 cars but they have only been shared to me privately. I'd LOVE to make a 1985 season.

I made those changes for 1982 and 1984 seasons. They look red and white to me in the real race. Now on the AC track the curbs are all white/light grey. I see what I can do.

Yeah, I do have 1985 beta aswell... But unfortunately my favourite 1985 track (Zandvoort) is not in the game, and maybe never will be... but yeah never say never

80's Zandvoort and 1989, 1990, 1991 Phoenix street circuit are probably the "biggest" missing tracks on AC. Sure we have the 1991 free Phoenix but it's quite "dirty" and unfinished. And then we have the pay version. I have it and after AI fix it's very good. But we need a free Phoenix GP for the community.

Shin has 1984 Nurburgring and 1992 Detroit WIP's. I've tested them both and they are very, very good. Rainmaker's 1979 Dijon is also one of those "hidden gems" that few people have played. Awesome track to drive and I've had some great races in it in my 1982 and 1984 seasons.

Yeah I do have these tracks, also the paid Phoenix... But 80s Zandvoort, Ain Diab and Monsanto are entirely missing
 
in the extension file (ext_config.ini file in subfolder "extension" of the car folder) look for [AUDIO_VOLUME] section or add if it's not there by copying in the following:

[AUDIO_VOLUME]
ENGINE_EXT = 1.0 ;decrease this one
ENGINE_INT = 1.0 ;increase this one
GEAR_EXT = 1.0
GEAR_INT = 1.0
BODYWORK = 1.0
WIND = 1.0
DIRT = 1.0
DOWN_SHIFT = 1.0
UP_SHIFT = 1.0
HORN = 1.0
GEAR_GRIND = 1.0
BACKFIRE_EXT = 1.0
BACKFIRE_INT = 1.0
TRACTION_CONTROL_EXT = 1.0
TRACTION_CONTROL_INT = 1.0
TRANSMISSION = 0.3
LIMITER = 1.0
TURBO = 0.3
RAIN_EXT=1.0
RAIN_INT=1.0
WIPER_EXT=0.8
WIPER_INT=0.5
HIT = 1.0
SCRAPE = 1.0
WHEEL = 1.0
SKID_EXT = 1.0
SKID_INT = 1.0


like this you can control almost all aspects of the sound volume...
Have fun!
Thanks, that did the trick!
 
Automotodrom Brno v4.0

- Fictional reverse layout added; new VAO patch; some flag textures updated; invisible walls added to armco gaps; ambulance lights added; various texture/mesh/config updates; new loading screens.

Note: the reverse layout retains the original forward-facing grid markings, distance markers etc from the normal layout. It's a fictional route so is not set up as a 'proper' FIA-approved option, but does have working AI, pits and unmarked grid boxes.
It's been added because it's bloody good fun.
Thanks once again to @pk3r72owns and @pugsang who did the bulk of the heavy lifting.

I've made 5 attempts to DL, but the session times out every time
with a message that says Host error. Is there any way I can getaround this?
 
Hi
Does anyone know if it's possible to disable collisions with certain track objects via ext_config file or something that doesn't involve editing kn5 files?
I was able to make it "invisible" by making the mesh non-renderable in ext_config but I can still crash into it.

Do these skins work on the 1976 version, cos I find the 1967 version suffers a lot from CPU issues.
 
Confirmed as working here... Thanks for this one - Kyalami '84 was the first race I watched as a 7 year old (although it was another 25 years before I established that via YouTube) and I've been hooked ever since! :cheers:

You're welcome. So many great races in the old Kyalami.

Kyalami 1985 had that absolutely INSANE Keke Rosberg charge. He was leading the race and then he hit the oil spot and spun. Frank Williams said that Keke's charge in the end was the most spectacular thing he has seen in motor racing. It was absolutely bonkers. Watch the race. He ran out of laps and finished 2nd (came from one lap behind).

From 6:00 here (click on Youtube window).



PS: I'll take a look if I can add those red/white kerbs there now.

I was able to make it "invisible" by making the mesh non-renderable in ext_config but I can still crash into it.
You have to:
  • open surface.ini inside the data folder,
  • copy all the SURFACE section of the road mesh (most of the time is named ROAD or TRACK),
  • paste it at the bottom and rename [SURFACE_xx] with the next following number
  • edit the KEY parameter of the collidable wall mesh (in capital letters). Some times it's not the one you make invisible in ext_config.ini, but there is another invisible collidable mesh (in this case you got to use Blender to find the correct mesh).

NOTE: you can't use the track or layout online anymore (unless you make another layout)
 
Okay guys I added proper kerbs to Kyalami 1982, 1983, 1984 and 1985.

I created separate skins for all years. I mean why not. Eventually we will get proper 1985 cars and I have to create them for that season anyway. And it's a gift to Juppek. :D

I also added one 80's Good Year ad because that was showing in 1984 footage. WesBank, Technics, Marlboro and Longines, Olivetti sponsors were pretty much the same in all years.

Enjoy. And yes these work perfectly with RJ_Kyalami_1976 too. RJ can add these to his track.


EDIT: After watching the 1982, 1983, 1984 and 1985 footage closer.... the kerbs are

1982: Blue and white
1983: Black and yellow
1984: Red and white
1985: Black and yellow

So basically they changed the kerb color pretty much every year. Weirdness. Well either way now I fixed it, all years now have correct colors. Redownload the skins. Sorry for this.

Who makes the best 80s/90s F1 cars for AC?
ASR?

My all time favorites is RSS 1990.

ASR 1991 and 1992 are pretty good too. ASR has 1990 also but RSS are superior, imho.

I also love this Kunos Lotus98T based 1986 cars. I personally think they're superior to RSS 1986. However these are only skin based but it doesn't matter. Check my season. I "perfected" them by adding proper sparks and realistic performance.

Thanks. I've never really bothered with F1 cars until recently but the 1980s/early 1990s cars are very engaging to drive.
Any interest I have vanishes as soon as flight-deck steering wheels and paddleshifting are introduced, but the ones with round steering wheels and manual gearboxes with pedal clutches are terrific fun.
Basically, analogue > digital.

F1 1990 RSS is great but don't have "H shifting" only paddles (all skins are on overtake)
F1 91 ASR is cool, H shifiting but overall i prefer RSS.
F1 94/96 ACFL is... "functionnal", FFB and physics are too flat
F1 97 VRC (you have 2 cars available Williams and Ferrari but all skins on overtake for the Ferrari to re-create all cars) is very good
F1 86 RSS/KUNOS are great but i'm not fan of the handling of turbo era
