Assetto Corsa PC Mods General DiscussionPC

[TuranRabat]

I just got horny...

Stay away from my garage, sicko!

 

[kakauiyt]

1.5 millions, and sure is ripped...! Before they asked for four or five bucks; I don't know how this AC modding thing is going to end... 😕

all these people ripping from GT7 and no one ripped any formula car from Gran Turismo 5?? AC modding deserve its downfall

 

[Fanapryde]

It's 1.5 million pounds.

So, behind a paywall... encrypted too I'm guessing...

 

[TMLM]

Did the issue of the crash/kunos Porsche 991.2 GT3 R V1.0 only giving black screens in showroom as well as in-game come up before? I'd love to use it do replicate some IMSA races but right now it doesn't work.
I did a fresh install already, that did not change a thing

 

[jac0]

For me i would never use Gumroad, why should i switch? All i want is here, more easy and user friendly.

For what it is worth, I would prefer if you were using GT Planet download.
Gt Planet has been graciously hosting this amazing mod conversation for years and always has been a friend.
Going trough loops on a "patreon" site is not a better alternative, except if you have non revealed ulterior motive, GT Planet offer is a very good alternative.

but for guys that have a short fuse it's better to not use GTP download, because if they step on a moderators toes and their account gets sponged, all their content is gone as well.

But then again they seem to be wearing safety shoes nowadays!

[Pasta2000]

Hello GTPlanet! Used to have an account on here about a decade ago, long lost the login on that one.

Some of you may know me already, for those who don't; I painted a couple of old race cars for AC over the past 4 years, right now the count is at roughly 2,000 liveries. If you've driven Bazza's excellent WSC packs, or Alguecool's incredible Piper GTR, you've likely seen some of my stuff!

Here's some content that will be released this year, Legion's Chevron B16 historical livery set:

And then there is the collaboration project with Alguecool, Nissan Fairlady 2000's, of which I will showcase more soon. He's done a fantastic job on the 3D models, importing.

Rear wheel drive, 1000 kilograms, 700 hp and manual.

The original 993 doesn't have TC. I hope this one has.

It's exactly what the buying market wants. Analog, mechanical cars. That's why good examples of old MB 190's, BMW E30's and even Golf GTI:s and Peugeot 205 GTIs are hot in the classic market now. Those cars aren't fast by today's standars but buyers don't care. An electric Huyndai is probably faster. But hey, a skyscraper elevator is faster than a roller coaster... but which one gives you bigger thrill?

Generally cars are getting bigger and heavier all the time. And they feel like you're sitting in a laptop... sterile and boring. There is a huge demand for manual, analog cars. Why doesn't Porsche offer something like that Gunther Werks... or Singer? Now good old air cooled 911's cost more than new. It's probably all the safety regulations and all that... I have no idea.

The Merc 190E is a timeless design, like the MkIV Supra. They still look as good today as they did when they were launched, and better than the models that replaced them. Classic sports cars excluded, not many production cars can make that boast.
The original Sierra Cosworth can probably be added to that list too.
Maybe it's all about the proportions. Get those right and the car will transcend time itself.

is it normal that tvr griffith kn5 files are missing from the package?

 

[MrLonguinha17]

I have the same problem, the car identifies himself as a lowrider:

Good afternoon.

Keyboard or steering wheel?

Here, test both Tyrrells, with and without "extended physics", because in some cases with this configuration activated some cars have problems.In this test, both will run well.

I'll see what can be done, because since I used a "base car", I only imported the "main body" of the Tyrrell in this case and adjusted the positioning.

The textures (improved) were made by our mate "MrHunt"...

[Tetri]

Those lights and little adjustments with ppfilters and CSP 0.2.7 made me so mad that i created a ppfilter with some tools included. It is called Tetri Clarity Tools.

It goes from complete Brightness control in one shot (exposure+Daylight mult+ Tonemap Gain) to more subtle things (scenery exposition and sunlight to vegetation or clouds brightness, including those damn emissives that nobody seems to code the same way). I will add a 100 more useless sliders following my mental state trying every vintage car/track combo from the past 10 years.

It is full of flaws, written by a dysfunctioning mongoloïd, but at least i can now switch from a track to another and isolate the issues without spending 15 mlinutes in the ppconfig, therefore applying proper edits to my other otherwise good ppfilters. It also sucks a little under certain conditions, because reasons.

I also rewrote my beautiful Sad Reality ppfilters that are still reliable 2 years later. They are exquisite and dull and just contrasted enough for peaceful driving, not like those overcontrastest monstrosities you find everywhere.

Those are supposed to work with my reshade presets that are included and that, obviously because reshade, won't work properly on your system because you have slightly different CSP settings. That's telling a lot how terrible of a human being you are, you just never thought of it, did you? That's because you only think about yourself.

To counterweight your awefullness, i included the presets as well.

Those are not meant to be used by anyone (and they shouldn't) but i'm happy to share the "ideas" that remain, somewhere, hidden in the scriptures.

Copy manually to get the color grading textures : https://www.mediafire.com/file/uk6m5wwq4m6wmnf/Tetri+Clarity+Tools.7z/file






Anyway, i was "playing" and discover beautiful shadow bandings on some cars, i think it's been talked about lately. It's really related to the shadows, editing the Assetto video settings there seems to be an awful reaction between 1024 pixels and 8000pixels.

Everything between those 2 values seems to either separate the shadows from its source and create wonderful glitches on curved reflective surfaces. It goes better if you get 50 cm close to the shadwo, but i don't trust my opponents enough to maintain that distance on the long run. I've tried the doublesided geometry box and the reflections FX, and nope, it sucks until you pick 8000pixels shadows, which come with a nice 20% performance impact. I'll stick to 1024 but i miss the sharp shadows still.

 

[Valyul]

Finally tried the Guerrilla + CF GT4s that released a couple months ago. Found the AI couldn't handle them at all on fast corners for some reason (the AI worked fine on previous versions). Did some digging, they have the ai.ini file from the Kunos Cayman, with a very low look ahead value that makes them run wide constantly and unnecesary low brake hints too. Started fixing it in the notepad hoping for a good race aaaand it broke the encryption making the cars useless. Pain. Has this been noted before? (The borked AI I mean)

I use this app from overtake: Broken car kicker 1.5.1
With it you can alter in race, brake hint, lookahead base and lookahead gas-brake, even on encrypted cars. But only in a race and, I think, the app saves the changes in a separate file, (not so sure about that) for further use. If not you could do it again next race.
Now, if the first two commands are explained by the creator of the app, the third command (lookahead gas-brake) makes no sense to me. Could you explain what it should look like? I made a screen from a race with GUE GT4 cars for you to see how it looks:

 

[MrLonguinha17]

Here is the link (in the same post from a few days ago...) with the corrections in both versions of the Tyrrell 008.

I corrected the errors in the "DATA" folder and did the necessary tests.

I believe there will be no problems now.



PLEASE DELETE THE OLD VERSIONS.



Sorry for the inconvenience, but the car was not properly tested with others from the same season.

I checked the Ferrari 312T3 (both versions), but I used a physical one (different DATA folder).

Between today and tomorrow, I will have to correct the other cars that I was going to share, because I believe they have the same problem.
McLaren M26
Ligier JS7
Ligier JS9 (3 versions)
Copersucar F5A (4 versions)
Williams FW05
Renault RS01

I installed everything manually but they are missing from the downloaded zip.

 

[Opperslang]

Seen some people complain about Gumroad so as a modder who uses it (https://opperslang.gumroad.com/) I figured I give my reasoning.

My biggest reason is that I just wanted a single place where I could upload my work with some pics and details and have it neatly sorted. While I could use Patreon for this I think Gumroad does it a lot better and more clear. The thing is that Gumroad offers a lot of extra stuff that I can appreciate as a modder and a nerd as well. Not only does Gumroad keep track of all downloads, it also tracks where users are from (country) and where they were coming from (link source). While those things may seem useless to you as user, to me as a modder they can provide a lot of motivation. I purely make mods because I want to drive these cars and if other people can enjoy those too that is awesome. My back-end tells me there are quite a few people who download my mods which in turn makes me want to release more.

Some other things for me are simply the fact that I only need to upload my mods to a single place. When I update my mod I only need to update a single file which greatly reduces the chance for errors. The other things I like is the possibility of reviews, as someone who always reads reviews I think they are important.

Finally about emails and money. Like others have said, most mods in Gumroad are free, you can just input $0 everywhere. Sometimes a mod page input box can say "$1+" this DOES NOT MEAN you need to pay 1 or more, it is simply a suggestion put in by the mod author. The email address can be literally anything you want. You could just input test@test.com and it should be fine.

While as a UX Designer I agree that the extra steps are annoying, for me as a modder the easy access of payment is a real blessing. Of course I do this for fun and because I want to, that doesn't change the fact that I've spent hundreds maybe even thousands of hours doing this so if someone wants do donate me a beer I'd gladly accept it and it is very motivating!

I know there are a lot of greedy modders out there so it's always a bit hard to talk about monetization without coming across like one. I just hope people can understand that all my mods are free but a small donation means a lot. So if a Gumroad page motivates people to donate it only makes sense to make one, not because I do it for the money but it's nice to know people WANT to thank you. Just know that there still are a lot of modders that would never-ever lock anything behind a paywall even if they use Gumroad!

Sorry for the long post but I'd love to hear your guys opinion. Should modders all have a discord (requires account), a patreon (requires account), a facebook page (requires account)? Or should they be posted on sites like GTplanet or Overtake where copyright issues are bound to happen?

 

[Frank25]

I installed everything manually but they are missing from the downloaded zip.

Read page 27 of the PDF with the intallation notes for the car. But if you don't want to install the original car you can also copy the 4 KN5 files of the original car and edit the lods.ini as the original car isn't encrypted. This doesn't work with GADU's Alfa Romea TZ2 as the car is encrypted.

 

[Alx Hill]

I installed everything manually but they are missing from the downloaded zip.

Have you read the PDF file included with the download?

 

[alfredwayne]

Anyone know of a quicker way to export tags for a car all at once outside of copying each field in the CM or opening the UI.json file and copying the full tag list there? Thanks

It wasnt really a debate to begin with, only the site admin pointing that you can host mods here for free to a member that said he was switching to Gumroad because his google drive was full 🫣

TZ2 is still bugged/encrypted ... I read somewhere that downgrading CSP solves it, is there really no other way?

==================
EDIT:

Also, some of the cars (on both packs) don't have a windshield when I updated the previews. And no, I don't mean the ones that actually don't have one lol

Thank you! A solid, calm and descriptive argument toward that poor Gumroad, that was well needed.

Of all places outside Overtake-Department, where the local policy disappointed me greatly back then, I thing Gumroad is the one I though about the most. For the clean organized UI first, or the easy tracking/signaling for potential updates. But the extra steps for download were a bit repulsive I guess. In the end, it was that, or keeping track of the different links from a mediafire basis, then Famine had to actually remind me of the download section around here, and I'd say I'm satisfied by it. Monetization is completely non-intrusive, a simple paypal link, no tracking but not really needed in the end if it's a GTP user, proper mod presentation and reviews, the necessary stuff I'd say. If you're not looking to "optimize" your mods popularity or such, I'd say here would be my choice. Then the gum. Then the old school mediafire links. All of those far, far ahead of RD, FB, Patreon or Discord.

The gas and brake lookahead doesnt seem to do much on any car. On the GT4 cars, on pure eyemeter I would say that a lookahead base of 21 should be good for them to make the corners, and the brake hint could be moved closer to 1 to make them way faster too. The app doesnt have aero hints which on some cars make a great deal of a difference too. Shame the app doesnt perma save a data file in each car's folder. Most cars, even Kunos and big modding groups ones, come with painfully slow or crash prone AI for whatever reason, might even be the most overlooked part of the game considering how easy it is to test and tune.

@Valyul


After testing with the broken car kicker app:
I use either the unpack data to edit the ai.ini and save the changes once and for all

Or you can use Assetto Car Tuner to access and edit the data.acd directly, or even create a dedicated AI version of the car.

@G_Parrilla, i already made a Goodwood pack, a 1937 pack, some of the GTC60/WSC and i just made the 1967 F1 pack using this technique + some extra tweaks to make the AI drive as fast as a human driver. On a track with proper AI lanes, they really make up for a challenge. Let me know if you want to test (i usually share the packs here or on youtube), or if you have some cars in mind you want upgraded.

Lately on the edited Watkin Glens 60s, i had an absolute blast (here from 12th to 8th. The ones at the front are really cool to catch, after a huge amount of laps hotlapping) :




The ai lanes are from GPLaps, i edited the cars (heat mk1, ferrari 312, lotus 49 and honda ra300) and they run at 1.03.5 to 1.04.5, a pace not that easy to maintain.

Anyway, i need a way to share those without going against Kunos and Pessio's copyright/property, but if you are ready to follow a few steps, those AI versions can be easily done (and i already made the data).
