Assetto Corsa PC Mods General DiscussionPC

[SpeedStar2000]

I'm not talking about just the btcc but I'm talking about the whole period of touring car, also because I don't think I've read anywhere that it's from the btcc 1999

As a whole most of the liveries on the cars is either gonna be BTCC or JTCC. (in the trailer it showed the Castrol MK6 which is a JTCC. And if you want to see all the Supertourers there is as stoffel said. Get on GTR2.

Then hop on GTR2 as it's got pretty much every ST-era cars (and some)

currently the best GTR2 mod for supertouring is the FRM mod.

.../... Like you, I also prefer the higher mountains of the original (just not quite that high). My sweet spot is somewhere between the Reworked mountain height and the original mountain height.

If you aim for realism, I'd stick with the mountains of the reworked though...
Picture from the real:

EDIT: forgot to mention that it is part of a 360° panorama picture, so the 'fish eye' makes the mountains look a bit smaller than what the human eye would see. Imo the mountains of the reworked version are spot on.

Well with 6, better make it 7 cars (the Cavallier 1995 from Shaun Clarke should in no way be overlooked), you can easily make a very solid copy paste physics for other cars of the period. The models exist. Sure they are not a+ quality, but they are not that bad as well. And there will be the incentive now to improve them for sure. All these were not so much different as the regulations were very strict and precise to allow for close racing. Ok the Alfa and the Audi were 4x4 which makes it a little more difficult to tune in correctly. But it should and probably will be done. And yes they will not be 100% correct, but not like any other packs have not been copy pasted from one car to the other. So all in all you will probably be spoiled for choice pretty soon. If we are on the optimistic side, this pack might encourage Peter and the team to finish the Audi and the Laguna sooner.

I've been running the 1998 stw grid for some time now. I just use the bmw or the Primera, and others are grid fillers. And as long as they are close to my pace, I don't care that much how they actually drive, cause I will never drive them:

 

[MR SKINS]

Unfortunately it's not the original Accord (1995) aka MK5

But for past seasons and JTCC we are missing cars. Even though there is trash physics version for both champs (laguna for example) there needs to be more Supertouring mods at this high quality cause as of now we have 6.
3 from PM3DM - E36, Primera eGT, S40 and VRC - Mondeo MK II, Vectra and Accord MK6.

That will be lovely to have to be fair.

As Alesi Said, not in 1999. The 156 However did do other championships iirc

These aren't prefect and some logo positions are a bit off. Will work has grid fillers for new VRC Super Touring pack.

IIRC the 156 came after the crazy super tourer era ended?
also back to the discussion previously on ice and snow, this cool test on studded tire is relevant...

there are 2 version of the 156:
Super Turing

and later for the ETCC Series:

I think you finally solved the mystery of which version I have. I must have the Tiago Lima version with the addons, although I disabled the train addons. There were times where the train was there as I crossed the track and I just ghosted right through it. Kind of broke the realism factor when that happened.

I've already started the process of adjusting things for the track. Since there is so many versions out there, is there a particular one that I should be using as the base version? I have the Reworked version looking like the original with regards to the texture detail and color. Like you, I also prefer the higher mountains of the original (just not quite that high). My sweet spot is somewhere between the Reworked mountain height and the original mountain height.

And as a first step in the process, could someone give this updated ai a try. I don't know about anyone else, but the ai for me is struggling on the final turn. Cars missing the turn completely, some ending up on the hillside. There is always trouble there. I didn't change the actual racing line. I just re-recorded the left and right sidelines to get them through the final turn better and also to keep them out of pitlane. The original right sideline had them racing through pitlane for some reason. These should work with any of the tracks based off the original Longford_67 track. Make sure to backup the existing ai folder before extracting these. Thanks...

just looking at your comments re the mountains, if you take a look on google maps, with satellite on, use street view at the Longford boat ramp, will give you an idea of the terrain. The boat ramp is very close to the old Kings bridge that no longer exists, where the track crossed the South Esk River.
This should give you an idea of the location where the track was, though much of it no longer exists, but the train line is still there and the kings bridge they drove over, still shows the ruins.

Google GPS location data below if it helps.

Mad isn't it, I've long said that real life racing especially at the higher levels, many simmers would call arcade. Long been a problem in simming, I used to get quite vocal about it but just don't care now.
The iRacing over lockdown thing with many racers going online about ended the debate when many were asking why iRacing is so much harder than real life.

My opinion now is that I guess its part pressure from hardcore elements thus wanting to never be called 'arcade' and part making it a bit more exciting and on the edge for the player. Which is fine.

Interesting, the csp version of the cars require the csp version that is not out.

Boy do these drive good. Nothing less than amazing. And yes csp version uses extended physics looks like.

I'm afraid this mediafire download link doesn't work for me. Gets to approx 74% complete then restarts downloading. Any ideas please.

So for those not using extended physics we just re name the version in car.ini then?
After converting a tractor I need these mods to get me back into a more sensible frame of mind.

I never understood why people did mods of weird stuff like crocs and the like, but it is something that comes with converting and modding. A strange affliction that hopefully the tractor (and the monster truck to some degree) is peak stupid and i can get back to normal stuff........

*edit to add each car has two versions, one saying CSP the other not, so i guess one is extended and other is not?
Would make sense if you wanted to sell as many to as many people as possible?
I'll check once I'm back on the main rig.

isnt it? the 1.08 preview is already out in circulation. i cant imagine VRC would release a mod they couldnt test

 

[NivekBS]

Maybe stupid question but where to download the VRC Supertourers
There is nothing on there official side...

I would prefer you use the reworked version as your base since @slider666 worked his arse off on that one, I remember quite good since I was in contact with him last year reg. that overhaul. A pity he does not comment at all, maybe he is no longer active here?!

yes the 1.08 is out but that is 1.08 preview 01, the preview 108 has only been out for a couple of days

 

[SpeedStar2000]

hopefully someone reworks the crap models with the physics from these or the PM3DM physics.

 

[safi hellie]

Two versions anyway, so even those on vanilla can use them. Extended physics is for rain I'm guessing and not everyone wants or thinks rain is that great. No way would they wipe out a bunch of customers from using it.

question: what pages are all the links to the f302 Supertouring skins. like the Audi A4 for example and the lagunas

That's the one i'm fooling with since @Fanapryde said the mountains are spot on. I'll add the animated flags to that one and see where it goes from there.

Yeah, each car has version with csp extented physics and without it.

It only says that about the vectra, but I suppose that rest of them had it too.

Yep all have it, they ain't dumb. I tried extended physics once, then unclicked the box and won't ever use it again mainly because it did nothing and I don't use rain.

Having said that, if they didn't offer a non extended physics its as simple as removing a - from car.ini...
in better terms 'extended -2' turns into 'extended 2' job jobbed.

Salivating at the thought of trying them later and thus wiping out the simdream BTCC converts i have.

With the newest CSP, i hit F8 for Screenshots and the game freezes complete...
anybody else?

it does way more than nothing. it reworks the tire heating model.
