No you are absolutely right. Especially in VR mode, where 3D is so important, most tarmac is a flat looking piece of gray sheet. That’s why I did write down a couple of times that modders should be more open for others that are better on some aspect and take a closer look on how they manage that. Or why not ask them.
When is the release due peter?
Saying that Simdream makes good content is hilarious. Just compare the 3D model to the real car and you'll realize just how terrible their stuff is. The interior isn't even correct. The material is outdated, textures looks like they were taken from Need For Speed porsche
I'm curious about which paid mods you are using as a reference for simdream.
There is a large database of patreon creators, which I mostly avoid. It's not a strong argument for simdream.
That is a very low standard. If I commit the time, I could be better than simdream 5-6 years ago. And I will still be crap.
here my revamp skins pack, deleting also some unnesc. files in the skins folders, so best is to remove the skins folder altogether and then copying over the content of this archive into the car's directory.

Thanks man. This has immediately transformed the way opponents will now door-to-door you. Some of the most sane racing I've enjoyed on AC. Bunch of 1990s DTM cars, btw.Alternative AI for Brno v2.5.1:

Notes:
-Back up the track before making changes, and make sure only fastlane.ai and pitlane.ai are the only files in your ai folder (get rid of all the others stuff).
-I also added a fictional DRS zone on the front straight.
-This will not work on previous versions of the track

You can also try to deactivate "Use simpler AI spline for low-level AIs (below 90%)" under "New AI behaviour" in CSP.Thanks man. This has immediately transformed the way opponents will now door-to-door you. Some of the most sane racing I've enjoyed on AC. Bunch of 1990s DTM cars, btw.
The start however is "All together now, TURN RIGHT!"
I do have "Straighten AI's trajectory when starting" turned on, this is new behaviour (since updating). AI at 90/60.
Anything you would suggest I could try?
EDIT: Cranking the AI strength up 5% to 95, seems to have sorted the shenanigans.
No worries, thanks for confirming. Glad it's not a CSP issue or whatnot.I installed the car anew from original source, and then unpacked data (so far digital instr texts were still the same , visible but some floating in mid air) , then I renamed the data.acd file and put your digital instr file overwriting the original...
Then no more digital instruments visible...
So yeah , I think yours is not correct (and don't know why others don't see this).
Also in the file itself , I see where the issue might come from :
for example in the first section :
[ITEM_0]
PARENT=DASH_4 <----- here your file has "PARENT=SPEED" instead... so that can't work I believe
POSITION=-0.006,-0.0085,-0.001
TYPE=SPEED
SIZE=0.017
COLOR=255,255,255,255
INTENSITY=2
FONT=digital_mid
VERSION=2
ALIGN=RIGHT
UNITS=KMH
EDIT : oops , now I see the error (on my part) , I took your files for Dawallace's Viper and placed them onto the Lexus ...
sorry , my bad!
With your file I can see the data, but seen from the first-person driving position (CSP 0.1.79 and 3 screens here), the stopwatch numbers overlap a little with the dots that separate minutes, seconds and thousandths. With the @jac0 file they seem to be on the same plane, as seen in this screenshot...
yes, I also changed the font of the laptime to fix that little issue...
Good spot, the laptime font and size needed tweaking as per @jac0 's config.
