Damn...

these screens are magic

i want to run this race!
i want a Bop for these cars and make a championship!

that's it, i'm in love!

I'll get something together soon. As for BOP, that's the one thing that I'm happy I don't have to do. After BOPing the crap out of WEC 2023 (lots of hp changes) and burning out on that way of not driving much, I'm liking the idea of bring-what-ya-got racing. In alot of ways that's what scca/marlboro/transam(early) was. There was enough classes that everyone could race (at the same time) and you raced the cars that were about your speed while getting in everyone else's way. Marlboro 12hr had everything from beetles to dauphines to cortinas to darts driven by Donohue, Ickx, Stewart and all the up-coming US drivers (leading into Trans-Am and Can-Am). Clearly I'm a born again 60s racer! (who doesn't have to bop...well, maybe just a little ) (I stashed an engine in back of this vanilla Fiat 600D and popped the lid (in 3DSimEd)... and what a hoot! (Real smooth in the corners, btw) I, or many scca drivers in the day wouldn't have been able to afford the Abarth version, so do it yourself! (still need to change the wheels)

Here's the link for the Mini Pack (1980-1981), some prints of the cars and a preview of the Mini Pack (1979, we already have the Lotus 79 and the Ferrari 312 T4), for those who just want to have a little fun, don't mind with the perfection of official games.

They are just "simple" conversions, just some parts of the cars, that we have in other simulators but that Assetto Corsa gives a different "face" by virtue of being more current than rFactor and GTR2.

@Masscot

This makes sense now why you were using materials instead of meshes.It has fewer gpu calls.
Thanks again for your help.

(from csp github)
[SHADER_REPLACEMENT_...]
ACTIVE = 1 ; set to 0 to disable the whole section (default value is 1)
SKINS = red? ; list of skins to use replacement with (only for cars)

; First, targets, either materials or meshes (one thing to consider:
; for altering material properties, each mesh in MESHES would get its own material, thus
; increasing number of GPU calls, so it’s better to use MATERIALS where possible):
MATERIALS = tree?, texture:grass?.dds
MESHES = mesh_bush_?

If you prefer the older Brno with the perimeter treewalls and the original topography, you might as well use this v2.68 version that was never made public because we made the decision to change the topography before it was released.
I've given it a new folder name so you can also download the latest v4.0 'new topography' version as well (it'll overwrite your version 2.5.1, but this v2.68 will supersede it anyway) and run them separately, to easily compare or contrast (or just if you want to drive the reverse route).
This v2.68 version doesn't have the reverse route that v4.0 has, but it does have these changes from v2.5.1 which should be notable improvements:
v2.68 updated September 2024

• All tree textures replaced to reflect the wider variety at Brno. More trees planted. All tree shadows fixed. Tree meshes fixed. Floating trees seated. New bespoke treewall and bush textures created.
• Animated flying birds added.
• Animated camera jib, marshals and cameramen added.
• Some adboard/sponsor textures updated. Some adboard meshes fixed.
• New fence textures, distance markers, pit entry signs, and marshal hut numbers.
• New road texture and skidmarks. Race '07 skidmarks removed.
• New balloon textures.
• Solar path corrected to enable proper shadow casting for Brno's orientation.
• Various other tweaks and fixes, including: new animated paddock helicopter; alpha corrections on pit entry road markings; marshal hut number sequence corrected and missing number textures remapped; s/f gantry banner mapping fixed on the rear side; floating hillside fences fixed; various jumbotron tweaks; various texture/shader tweaks.

(Automotodrom Brno is now at v4.0, but the message link you posted above was for the older v3.1. You might not have tried v4.0?)

Thanks for sharing v2.68.

• I like the variety of trees.
• The variety of trees opened line of sight to treewalls.

Now I remember what I don't like about v3.1, and it still exists in v4.0. There is a distinct change of texture and color on the hillsides because there is no grassfx. As I'm driving, it looks odd to me and I don't like it. Is this the Gamma vs LCS issue that you're experiencing?

 

[sab001]

Does anyone know why sometimes the car name shown in-game is the same as SHORT_NAME in car.ini but sometimes it just ignores car.ini (packed and/or unpacked) and shows the name from cm-content-cars? What is it that trips it up?

The yellow boxers use the name from cm-content-cars, even though in cars.ini (and data.acd) that name is changed, like all the other cars... hmmmm.

 

[Gregz0r]

Why are you using ChatGPT in the first place when we exist lol

Well to be fair I've asked the question here a few times before, and the reaction was... crickets, so, yeah.

ChatGPT, the Ai chat bot that tells you that drinking asbestos is good for your health?

What's next, Using ChatGPT to find out if its raining outside?

I assume you know the answer to my initial query then?

 

[GreenMachine1]

Just took one of the existing C1s (the one with the most separated meshes) and stripped off the extra bits. For my scca stuff I have hacked up every car from the 50s & 60s to remove as much chrome as possible (or un-chrome it with csp), replace wheels with simpler steels, added roll cages, replaced seats, hide radios... but I haven't determined how to distribute this stuff. I have scca seasons with reasonably accurate grids, Marlboro 12hr, early TransAm (under/over 2L), Marathon de la Route (nurburgring) (love those Tatra 603s!), Bathurst...(etc.) I'll release Marlboro 12hrs first, probably with a list of cars to acquire with and an array of .kn5 updates to strip them down. (That way credit remains with the original creators...?) And although documentation linking car numbers to drivers (and to liveries) is quite sparse, a full set of skins will come with. Plug & Play 60s SCCA is the plan.View attachment 1421650View attachment 1421652View attachment 1421653

Plug & Play SCCA... I like the sound of that! Looking forward to it! I happen to be working on a SCCA skinpack for the newly-released 1963 Corvette from the GTC Legends pack. Here's a sneak-peek of what I'm cooking up. I have 8 skins done already, I'm targeting at least 20 before release.

Love it. Will the skins be for specific events (with driver names)? I have found it hard to link (or find) historic liveries with associated drivers (The Marlboro 12hr races have all the numbers but not liveries, and Donna Mae Mimms seems always properly documented ). I usually take the driver name and fake the livery with proper class markings...

Stardust, not Marlboro, btw.

 

[fto_10]

update your nvidia drivers. It could also be a good thing to use the "Studio" drivers. But maybe first try the "Game ready" drivers.

thanks Peter, i did a clean install twice for game ready and studio drivers but no luck.

 

[Kurt Woods]

If you're in to plaid... here's the new livery for the 2025 Pfaff Lamborghini to fill out your Daytona grid.
It's for the rss_gtm_lanzo_v10_evo2 and comes complete with crew.
Enjoy!

All of my skins do have accurate driver names and are listed for specific events. The documentation/entry lists from this era are super inconsistent, most of my time is spent researching instead of painting!

Beautiful, congratulations. Let's hope someone makes all the useful liveries: BTCC, Italian Superturismo Championship etc etc

[alexlockout]

minor update of Lotus Type 23 pack.
correction of wing skin on climax.
correction of tire temperature/pressure (bots, on some tracks, suffered from overheating and increased pressure in the front tires, as a result, understeer and crashes).
correction of brake temperature curve on climax.
correction of basic car settings, more aggressive (bots on some tracks suffered from understeer and crashes).
gearbox on the correct (right) side, (useful for those who use VR, the hand gets into the lever).
constructive criticism is welcome.

Did you restart the race? It happens often in many tracks, but most of the times the problem is solved after you ve restarted the session. I just try it, yes after restart the race it works, but is the first time this happened to me, thank you Request for info, I drive in the Anneau du Rhin...

Edit: after checking, these middle distance areas DO have GrassFX, but perhaps you aren't seeing it due to distance or because the grass is quite short and patchy?
If so, maybe try adjusting the GrassFX for those areas?
This shot was taken deep into the trees.



@shi has provided new models-based VAO patches that eliminate the cockpit flickering so the track might be ripe for a little update soon anyway.

 

[andrevr]

If you're even half as much a lover of older Porsches as I am, I'd like to suggest you have a look at this one:

It's the Porsche 911 (964) Carrera RS 3.8 from 1993, and it's free from Luso Real Specs on his/their Patreon
Gratefully that's free to join.

Now. I know there have been some cars from this source in the past.. that we weren't unanimous in our praise of.
This one is not in that ilk. I can highly recommend taking a look at this little yellow jewel.

In the last couple of versions, I've noticed that GrassFX is now "popping up" a bit. I can see it appearing as I move across the track - not sure if getting drawn or getting "illuminated".

Are there any settings I can change to tweak this? I've tried decreasing GrassFX quality and removing any efffects, but no luck.

 

[sab001]

Is there a way to control how much swaying the trees and grass do? Just a little too much for my liking. I set the wind to 0 and still they're swingin away like some dancehall routine. And isn't it chewing cpu/gpu time too?

Where are you setting the wind?
If using Sol/Pure, you need to do it for the type of weather in the Sol/Pure app.
It works there.
If you're changing it on the Drive screen, it won't.

You can also randomise the wind speed and direction (and set the boundary limits) in the Pure app, which adds nice visual variation to tracks in that the flags aren't always blowing in the same direction with the same force.

View attachment 1421814

Interesting. I activated the F7 free camera to look at the area, and there was no grassfx. Not a case of short grass for me. I need to investigate further.

UPDATE: Upon further investigation, there is grassfx, but it is very patchy. Thus revealing the underlying texture/material too much for me. The patchiness effect does not look realistic to me. I'll stay with v2.51 for now. Horses for courses and all that.

 

[ninezeroniner]

Two questions, the shameful one first.
I can't turn my car lights on. I've assigned "L" in AC settings, I've assigned "L" in extended settings app but something's wrong, like some other command interfering. I defaulted both settings, nothing changes...Where's my mistake?


Second one.
Can I spawn N number of still cars on a track wherever I need them, place them as I see fit for the only purpose of whatever, making pictures? Does this work in CM showroom only? A.I. example lol

It's the old Geroda74 car with some updates from Adriaan (but still has vastly different shades of leather on the dashboard and door cards, unfortunately).
Physics feel good but the cockpit's not really up to snuff in VR, for me anyway.
Different variation, but the Maid Cafe 964 might be worth a look as an alternative.

Popping up, as in radioactive swamp? I've been looking everywhere for a way to bring this mess back to its original dark green value. The only way seems to be bringing any form of ambient light in pure to a lower level, or adding more ambient occlusion.

@racinjoe013 have been doing an amazing job to bring the values back to a perfect level in his tracks edits but lately CSP has gone over the edge and it looks overbright again. @ClimaxF1 has done, again, some edits to overcome the new brightness as well, but i can see it's back to overexposed values as well in its edits (just tried Mugello to be sure, and it's not that bad, but it was PERFECT when it came out).

It's still very tricky. I guess there's some grassfx shader or material value value we could bring down thru an extension.ini file, but it could be nice to have a little control over it directly from CM.

Here's the config basics : https://github-wiki-see.page/m/ac-custom-shaders-patch/acc-extension-config/wiki/Tracks-–-Grass-FX

Personal opinion, we have to find a way to get the tracks to look good automatically. I've been trying to play Sergio Loro's old tracks lately with CSP 0.2.7 and they look terrible for some reason. I had to edit very specific values in the ppfilters to bring them back to a decent graphic level, but i remember playing them a few months ago and they looked pretty good.

My guess is either Pure or CSP has added plenty of shaders, glare options, lighting FX and playing old tracks with no CSP updates has become a lottery. Even new versions of super neutral ppfilters, the ones you can trust, like Natural Mod or Pure, cannot render them to their past glory. And it has been mentionned here multiple times, that it's a nightmare as well for creators and modders, as with each new iteration comes new challenges to overcome, edit and add for mods to work properly.

(i'm actually trying rn to make a vid on Sergio Loro's Watkin Glens 60s, with racinjoe's edits, and none of the 30 ppfilters i have, past and new, manage to render it properly. It's a nightmare.)

Edit : it's omething since csp 0.2.5 and beyond. Reversing to 0.2.4, everything looks absolutly glorious.

I also have that, but already gave up on improving it.

This one feels more annoying to me. It's actually popping up... I can see the grass "appear" as I move along the road (as if there's some aggressive clipping on the grassfx). I'm not sure if it's just being generated as I'm near it, or if it's some sort of lighting issue and it only gets illuminated in that moment. No idea what to change to prevent it, as it didn't do this in earlier versions.
