Helicorsa Radar App by Minolin
1. Download zip file.
2. Extract content to Assetto Corsa install location (...Steam\SteamApps\common\assettocorsa)
3. The content will extract itself to app\python\helicorsa (for the app) and content\gui\icons (for the icons). You can overwrite older version without problems.
4. Start AC and enable the 'helicorsa' app in the settings/general:
5. Start any session. Move the mouse to the right of the screen to show the app sidebar. Scroll down until you find the Helicorsa icon and click on it.
HINT: You will notice a window will show up, drag it wherever you want to start out. You will notice it will vanish after 5 seconds (you can still drag it). If you have problems to find it, just hide and re-show the app via the sidebar. It will remain completly invisible until you are moving, and there's a nearby car (also moving) - short: it will only be there if needed.

Helicorsa-v6.zipCareer Generator by ZioYuri78
If the standard career mode isn't enough, you can add this app to create more events.
If ACCG crash on click "new series" button
edit the settings.ini files and put your path under [AC_PATH] like this:
[AC_PATH]
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\assettocorsa
rewrite it in a clean document, i made some test and i don't know why but looks like the document have put a "space" between [AC_PATH] and the path.
Very small manual https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/16641401/ACCG_manual.pdf
(need update, is a old version!)

IMPORTANT
When you load an existing series and you generate it for the first time, will be created a new series folder, after this every time you generate that series his folder will be overwritten!
Your series will be stored into assettocorsa\content\career folder, you no long need the ACCG_series folder!
Every update isn't backward compatible!
The Time track-bar in "new/edit event" form is bugged, use the arrow keys to move it because with mouse still cause many problems! (sorry for this, i need to find a better solution in the code).
In file "cfg\settings.ini" verify the path under [AC_PATH], if is not equal your Assetto Corsa path please correct it or ACCG will not work properly.
In this version you can create, edit and delete series, events and opponents.

Calibrate Wheel Using Wheelcheck and LUT Generator by Akis
Another way to get optimal results for your FFB wheel.
- Run WheelCheck
- "Max Count" should be at least 50 in box. Lower values work, but 50 or even 100 give better results.
- Select "Step Log 2 (linear force test)" and wait until the test stops.
- Extract LUTGenerator.zip you've just downloaded wherever you want and run LUTGenerator.exe
- Open the csv that was just generated by WheelCheck.
- Save the generated LUT in My Documents\Assetto Corsa\cfg\ folder, eg myLUT.lut
- Open ff_post_process.ini located in My Documents\Assetto Corsa\cfg\ and make sure the TYPE=LUT, ENABLED=1 and CURVE = Generated LUT filename
- MIN FORCE should be set to 0 in Assetto Corsa!!

TCS and ABS Options brought up by @Wiz
An interesting tidbit about the traction control and anti-lock brake systems in AC.
Did you know that a lower number TCS is actually a "stronger" TCS? A setting of 1 will be "more intrusive" than a setting of 10. Leaving it at 1 is probably slowing you down. Similar deal with ABS. Setting ABS to 1 will always be the "strongest" ABS.
Free Camera Outside of Photomode brought up by @Ameer67
Ever wondered how to get all those cool angles while driving?
Simply press F5 on your keyboard to take control of the camera. Use WASD to pan and the left mouse button to change the direction. And yes, you can even go inside the cockpit.
Getting tired of reaching over to your keyboard to press the Esc key? (If you are using a non-Logitech wheel, scroll up and find JoyToKey.)
1. Open the Logitech Profiler.
2. At the top, click Edit > Assignments > Keystrokes.
3. Click New.
4. Hit record. Press Esc on your keyboard and then click stop. Click OK.
5. Hit OK again to close the keystrokes window.
6. On your wheel, press on the button you want the keystroke assigned to. A small line should appear connecting the button to its name.
7. Once you have located the name, click on it and go to Select Keystroke > Keystroke Esc
That's all there is to it. You can use this method to emulate other keyboard presses too.

To resize:
Go to your "assettocorsa/content/texture/damage" folder and resize each pic to 188 x 188 or your preferred size. Make a backup of the original files first in case you don't like it. Also, make sure you're saving them in the original format, which is png. Having software that can batch resize images saves a lot of time here.
To change location of icon on screen:
Navigate to assettocorsa/system/cfg and open "damage_displayer.ini". Change these parameters to match the numbers below and save.
POSITION_X=-40
DISTANCE_FROM_CENTER_Y=350
Please note that these parameters may be dependent on what resolution you use. These worked for me but if they don't for you, just keep changing them until you're happy.
To remove:
Just delete the "assettocorsa/content/texture/damage" folder.

Go to the AC folder, usually located at by default: SteamApps\common\assettocorsa\system\cfg\graphics. Change the MAXIMUM_FRAME_LATENCY to 1 from 0 (was reset to 0 in the 0.2 update). Don't forget to save it before exiting or it will reset to 0.

Crap, I don't remember who posted it then, and I don't want to throw it up without permission
Mine is 872-ish. Anyone know if it changes over time/wear/etc.? E.g. does it get bigger/smaller over time/with use?
The weird thing is I can edit files in contents/cars folder even though it's also marked Read Only. I'm running Windows 10 if that makes any difference.
