Assetto Corsa PC Mods General Discussion

Wonderful. Many thanks. I think the 2020 DTM mod posted there on RD today was the free one from FSR? Yes, the 2020 DTM from FSR, looking from their prefix on car's files and credits.

2. Install Update for Porsche Leipzig Track from @CrisT86

Assetto Corsa PC Mods General Discussion

I found another modding page on Facebook, but it's not required to join. https://www.facebook.com/ArmgarageTH EDIT: The page has a normal 2013 Mitsubishi Lancer of all things. Not an Evo X, but a normal lancer.

3. Install my skin and ext_config
Put the downloaded and extracted files in the db_leipzig_porsche folder.

4. Activate skin

5. Start AC

Does not overwrite files.

Update Details;
Fixed problem with normal map textures not being applied to buildings. (They were unnaturally too bright looking.)
Changed the green texture at the edge of the road to a grass texture.
Updated textures for kerbs and 150m, 100m, and 50m signs.
The flag was hidden because it was too far from the pole.
Other minor fixes have been included in ext_config.

Thanks for the tip and have fun with Pure! The upcoming release will have a new shader called "groundfog". It will add additional "fog billboards" randomly scattered along the AI spline. It is very efficient and with normal settings it will nearly no hit an CPU/GPU:

stunning work as always peter, if this will be good in general, it will be game changer for rally and hillclimb stage, and it could be even more if it was possible to make it depend on the elevation like someone else mentioned

 

[Uberbok]

it is, its the conversion from gabenhood, i cant find the v3 version, so im trying to fix the v2

V3 is here, along with Mr Hood's other stuff :

Think the trees are the same (probably)

Is there a simple way to increase the starting grid with 1 or 2 extra cars.
For a 1950 championship I have exchanged the Reims Gilles75 to the much better made 23pits/grid @RMi_wood track (thanks btw for creating), but I need a 24 cars layout. According to two postings at reddit this can be simple done using CM, but they did not publish the method.
Is this true and how to do?

Reims 1950s
24 pit/grid update (main kn5 only) - :: get it here ::
Full track (w/original 23 pit/grid) - :: get that here ::

 

[VetteZR1]

First off, you will want to check the WeatherFX and Track Adjustment options and make sure Seasonal Adjustments are enabled.

Great tip RJoe. It was my seasonal adjustments that were at fault. I've got color back in my life.

Overtake bought Racedepartment early last year, and they've been slowly merging since then. No huge surprise really.

For about the past year they've had a little overtake logo under their own logo on the website.

KS Monza66 Mod

ks_monza66_mod

First draft of the changes I made to Kunos' Monza 66 track. It's a work in progress so don't expect high quality. Since it's a test version, you will have to put up with some hassles finding a combo that suits you. I'll explain later. I'm just throwing it out there now in the hopes to get some feedback or help on improving it.

-- Includes my own version of the track's CSP config done by @leBluem. I made some shader, seasonal and lights changes to fit my eyes better. There is the default version and one that has lighter grass and trees. You just need to rename the file to try the lighter version. Anything I did can be adjusted by altering the correct entries in the ext_config file. Or delete the ext_config file and you can go back to using the CSP version.
-- New VAO patches that make the shadow areas not as black as the CSP vao patch. Again, can be deleted to go back to the CSP version.
-- A bunch of different track skins for the grass, trees and road. This is were the hassle comes in. They are all separated because I couldn't decide which I liked better. In theory, the Grass skin is supposed to go with the Trees skin, Grass2 with Trees2, etc. but you can mix and match them any way you like. The differences between them are subtle and I doubt most people will notice much difference. Basically, Grass and Tress have more yellow and magenta based colors. Grass2 and Tress2 are a little more blue and green tinted. Grass3 and Trees3 are more green tinted. For the record, my ppfilter prefers Grass2 and Trees2. The Road skin is completely optional and the track looks fine without it even enabled. I just prefer the more grey appearance it gives to the stock road textures.

Yeah I remember the announcement and saw they'd be updating today earlier this week. Feel like a Friday maybe isn't the best day but looking forward to seeing it

What a lovely job you've made of that, the course looks wonderful (I've also been using texture 2). Took the Jag XJ-13 out in the late afternoon sun, beautiful.

I guess it should be possible since AC take altitude into account in the engine.ini file so there is some sort of altitude data in the game

I will never get tired to give thanks to Assetto Corsa, to the modders, to the simracing equipment companies, to the foundries that extrude aluminum profiles for cockpits, to those who make racing seats that make your ass hurt from spending so many hours sitting, to the personal computer manufacturers, to the internet providers and to all of you who make great these forums and that allow me to have a great time being an idiot driving like a crazy nut incredible cars through dream landscapes.

THANKS A LOT!

Any advice for removing that blocking advertisement , my Adguard is not working anymore at the Overtake site.

Solved: For my iPad I use right now a security web browser Opera instead of Safari. But I think every specific security browser’s like Brave and TOR will work. On my Desktop PC, I have Brave installed and here no irritating blocking red advertising

Just a screenshot from mine to show how a pp filter can make a difference. Did not download or install your mod yet but used 3d trees.

And this is with your mod enabled but no skins used so far.

I've always said my mods are not for everyone. If the track looked on my end the way it does on your end then I wouldn't have to waste my time on making changes. Unfortunately, most tracks look nuclear for me with the CSP configs. That's why I always have to make changes. Honestly, when I see a pic like yours, I can never understand why everything is so nuclear for me. I can adjust my gamma and exposure settings to make the trees and grass darker, but that also impacts the ambient light and then day time looks too dark ambient wise. I just find it easier to make a track mod and then share it in case anyone else has the same problem I have.

Maybe updating to the latest Pure, CSP and using a good pp filter would be a good start. We can chat in PM if you need some tips or hints, if you like.

Possibly, but this has been a problem going back to before Pure even existed. I had the same problem with Sol. And not to sound arrogant, but i've tried just about every ppfilter there is and none of them give me the same realistic look and feel that my own personal ppfilter does. So in my eyes, mine is a 'good' filter. The only other one I have kept out of all the ones I've tried is @Amby PureLIFE filters. They are a nice alternative to my own because they have similar lighting to my own but offer a nice change of pace to the ambient feel compared to mine. Mine tend to have a warmer feel, his has a nice cool feel.

But I do appreciate the offer to help. Maybe some day when I get tired of doing track mods, i'll take you up on the offer. For now i'm happy wasting my time changing the tracks to fit my needs. I'm just an old man with lots of time to kill.

...a lot of car skins coming bundled with a car extension folder, nowadays.
How this Nth AC complication make you guys feel?

Overwriting the extension folder each time? (oh my)
Blinding your self by checking every line of code?
Deleting it and not giving a damn?

It makes me hope AC2 isn't moddable, don't ban me 😂

When I see them I faint and when I create them I feel guilty

I don't think, that you are wasting your time. As I'm using your version of Spa 1966 for a long time now, I also compared your versions of Goodwood, Kyalami 1976 and Le Mans 1967 with the original versions of these tracks some days ago. Your versions of the tracks just look better and I'm using them now instead of the original versions. I'm playing in VR with Sol and the standard Sol PP filter.
