Hello everybody, I'm not sure this is the right place to post this so sorry if it's not...
After years of not playing any sims, I was excited to get back into AC with Evo. Trying it was cool but the limited amount of content didn’t scratch that itch I got from not playing for so many years, so I want to get in the original game. However it seems like so much has changed that I feel kinda lost.
Back then I was an impulsive mod collector, CM tells me I’ve accumulated 1155 cars and 274 tracks. I was always looking for mods to collect from various sources: I joined countless FB groups, forums and I dug some obscure websites to get hard to find mods. I really liked managing all the content I got, tinkering with stuff to make it better etc. Honestly I had more fun doing that than driving haha.
Yesterday I got up to date with all the new features in CM, downloading the new CSP version to see what’s new and installing the latest version of Pure. It’s impressive how things have changed. However it seems that all the places I used to get mods from are either dead or abandoned. Before spending time looking for new sources I thought I’d ask some questions here:
- What are the best places to get mods ? (is Assetto Land still around ?)
- What are the most essential mods to have ? (tracks, cars, others ?)
- Are there any features from CM/CSP/Pure that I should know ?
- Are there still some obscure places to look for ? (FB groups ? forums ?)
Back then I also purchased some mods made from scratch by talented people, I only remember Race Sim Studio. I was willing to pay for the mods because the price was fair and the quality was excellent. Are they still around ? Are there other groups making such mods ?
Now on a more controversial note. There were other groups making paid mods out of conversions from other games: RTM, Sim Dream, Assetto Drive, Assetto Garage, etc. Are they also still around ? Their mods were fun the tinker with and make better. I used to download them from sources that leaked them. What’s the situation now ?
BTW, if any of you are interested in the mods I’ve accumulated, I can share my mod list (just tell me how). Maybe there are mods in there that are lost and cannot be found anymore.
Thanks in advance and sorry for the wall of text.
