Assetto Corsa PC Mods General DiscussionPC

[Clubber_Lang]

Hey guys.....it's been a long while since I've posted here. Wondering if I could some advice on something?

I picked up the VRC 2022 Formula Alpha a few days ago. After I unzipped it , it has an " Optional setups " folder in there. Where exactly do I install that? It doesn't mention it in the read me file. It's basically a set up for like 5 different tracks. And I'd like to test them out.

And to all my old homies out there.....What's up!!??

Edit : I think I install right into the original KS track folders. But it also has a Monza and a Spa set up.....but I have no idea what track they are referring to here? and original KS track or Mod track?

Now the Ford Capri 2600LV ( just a folder of it ) is as close as possible ( I managed to adapt the rear spoiler ), some improvements in the skins ( it is not identical to Le Mans 1973 )... and the glasses are transparent due to the help of our mate "SthrnOldskool".



A few more days step this car (if possible, because the base car I used had to reduce the size by 18% to be similar to the actual size compared to the BMW CSL (another version I found to adapt the Skins de Le Mans 1973 ), Ferrari 365 GTB, Ligier Js2.

Later I intend to adapt the Skins de Le Mans 1972 (in another Ford Capri model), all within a schedule (but I can't always do what I propose to do).

hi all. is there a way to change the time when the lights turn on on a track?

Out of a bit scripting, I guess not atm.
In some lua code, I think this is what you should look for:

ac.setWeatherTrackLightsMultiplierThreshold(value)

You should find this somewhere in the code of the weather mod you're using.
I don't use Sol / Pure, so I can't tell you where to look for.
It is line 459 in "src\weather_application.lua" in the x4fab base weather mod.

I guess increasing "value" will make lights turn on earlier but I have not tested it yet.

 

[Pfalzdriver]

Possible, Smurth, but adjusting the global data with "\tracks\common\conditions.ini" is way easier @YOMISMODEMI

looking great. I didn't do much, just opened the window of one of the other skins in photoshop and recoloured the strip and saved as dxt5. The alpha channel was already set in the original skin. I just hope the colours you need are right, I took a punt and being colour-blind, my punt can quiet easily be off target.

Hi all
I want to be sure that I use the last version of F1 1967 mod; may you please confirm if the last version is the GPL MOD 1967 v2.20 of 2019 -04-16 (I found it here: https://thracing.de/gpl-mod-1967/)
or are there other versions ?
in the pictures of that site I see often the site logo on the car, maybe there is a skinpack that just have the original liveries ?

thank you Breathe, so that is the last version of that mod ?

I checked the skinpack but it has many many liveries for each car; ho to have just the original 1967 cars liveries ?

Just check (with Googles help) the driver rooster for the 1967 season and choose the corresponding skins from the pack.

RD has a changed physics mod adding the cars more weight and correcting some data.

Personally I like the original physics more. It’s more special (slippery) like no ther f1 mods

Possible, Smurth, but adjusting the global data with "\tracks\common\conditions.ini" is way easier @YOMISMODEMI

... or its full path, "...assettocorsa\extension\config\tracks\common\conditions.ini", in case anyone was looking for that in the "...assettocorsa\content\tracks..." folder.

Yesterday I picked some cherries.
They look good! But they taste like dog testicles.
I will proceed immediately to share them with my little town.

Hope they won't notice, because..well. I see no reason for people to complain about free dog testicles flavoured cherries.

 

[Perico Lospa]

Now you leave me wondering how anyone KNOWS what dog testicles taste like... 😕

We're talking about eating dog testicles now? Then how about some drink to go with the food?

Anyway, I found some mods that might be worth checking out:

Honda Civic SiR-II
This might be the best version of the SiR-II that I've seen so far. Nice visuals inside and out, a choice of three rims (steel wheels, stock alloys and rims from the CR-X) and the handling feels pretty good from what little I've tested. It's not fully stock, but the stuff that isn't stock are trivialities like the seats (again from a CR-X) and the headlamps. Also has one of those sun strips on the windshield that were popular back in the day.

S13 Silvia
This is a three-pack and is the only place I've seen the mid-range Q's model instead of just the high-end turbocharged K's. It also includes a tuned version... but I've seen someone completely ruin a pristine S13 Silvia in real life like that, and I have even less interest with that kind of stuff in Assetto Corsa. I haven't tested this pack so I'm not sure how they drive.

Honda NSX-R
Another 3-pack, again including an (in my opinion) extraneous tuned version. Other than that, it includes both an NA1 and NA2 NSX-R. We're already pretty well-covered for NA1 NSX models thanks to the some1 mod, but this is the first NA2 model I've seen with all the CSP bells and whistles. Threw it round Suzuka for a few laps and I really like it - it conveys a sense of speed unlike basically any other car I've tried, which considering it's just a stock NSX is quite something. They are asking for money for this one, so bear that in mind - and the model is encrypted so be warned.

Hi all,
This week I noticed that two of my favourite circuits (Red Bull Ring and Spa-Francorchamps) have a weird glitch in it.
I don;t know what caused it, I haven't been tweaking a lot lately..
the two circuits are both the original Kunos ones.
I even copied the two folders from a backup, to know for sure I have the undamaged/unedited version of it.

What could this be?

(don't mind the quality of the pictures, I quickly made shots from the screen with my phone..)

Rusty Valley Raceway 0.6 Update

what's new in 0.6:

• Death Canyon hairpin is now with car-catch safety fence structure with lighting
• reworked terrain with more detail in road edges
• asphalt surface and edges keep evolving (special thanks to Shuffy and OMEGA for helping with texture artifacts and ext_config stuff!)

Features:

• main and reversed layout
• 32 pits to satisfy all your retro mayhem needs!
• some tourists vehicles camping near the track
• animated freight train
• light config
• grass fx
• very detailed physical road mesh (this track is old and harsh so if you have DD wheel get ready for workout)

Woo! As Stalin said, quantity is quality!

This happened to me once, with KS Monza. What caused it was a 3rd-party skin, which broke the original kunos asphalt texture. I had to delete all custom skins of the track to make it work again properly.

But since you said you're using only the kunos track, with nothing, I don't have any idea of what could be the cause.

THX for the Rusty Valley update. Now it's running smooth on my system.

EDIT:

Orschwerbleede...*

Andre "f1_edition" Streu gave me permission for overhauling his tracks from the DDR (GDR)! We are now beta testing, release of the gems from the east soon™. Thinking of a part 7 for GPLmania with a special car for the tracks.

Differences between old and new versions of Dessau:

Great find with the Honda Civic SiR-II, I've been waiting for a decent gen 5 Civic for a while. Turns out I'd actually deleted all previous versions in a recent purge, but this one's definitely a keeper.
The model is encrypted but thankfully the driver posture, position and shifting animation are pretty good (can't unsee his invisible wrists though...) and the dark detail-crushing cockpit materials are easily lightened in the config.
Data can be unpacked to tweak the shifting animation timing and increase FFmult too.
Thanks very much for posting it.

it's a pity it's encrypted, in custom showroom it looks terrible if you wanted to make your own skin. Looks ok on track though.
Im not sure why it looks like this in CM showroom when other encrypted models like RSS ones show up fine.
