That site's mods are amazing, right? Handle so well.

Tried out some new CSP settings and filters

Yup - absolutely!

I got the updated version of the 992 GT3 here (2 in 1 - PDK and manual versions, updated by Adriaan Suy to fix a few config issues):

Yeah - there are a few gems amongst the general crapola but it can take time to find them. I generally use this as a last resort if I can't find the car I want elsewhere!

I think I need to invest in some form of video hardware capture device! Running AC maxed out is great and buttery smooth on the 3090... but trying to capture and encode 4K at 60fps at the same time results in juddering videos. Interestingly the GPU encoding doesn't really impact on the gameplay as recording is taking place, but it certainly doesn't result in smooth videos.

Are you using Shadowplay? I find that annoyingly.

Yessir - I am indeed. I haven't found anything better unfortunately. Bloody annoying.

 

[SharkyUK]

Right. So I spent nearly 5 hours last night dicking around with different recording software and trying different settings... and this is about the best I came up with. Not perfect, but as good as I could get it. I used OBS (64-bit) and a mixture of settings. The video is crap and purely a test capture but it certainly looks better to me (in terms of smooth-idity!)

Night drags. Moar boost needed

Apparently Assetto Corsa has a halloween mode. I have no idea how to turn it off.

 

[BoatNonce]

So it turns out I was installing a load of cars from Assettoland and one of them included CSP 1.66 as a ‘freebie’ - and the red screen etc is because Pure and CSP 1.66 are not compatible. Spooky coincidence 😂😂😂

 

[Silent_Scone]

Pure looks way too bright for me in Vr for some reason

That's what happens when your local MaccyD's isn't 24hr and it's almost closing time...

I’m using PureEYE but it does look rather bright.

Wet weather looks spot on for me with Sol 2.2 and custom filter

The Nissan Primera BTCC can be a bit of a handful when pushing on!

My Assetto Corsa install on my home PC is nudging 550GB now, but my work laptop install is struggling, because I hotspot on my phone and Vodafone blocks mega.nz which is where a lot of mods are hosted.

Solution?
Move my entire home Assettocorsa install into my dropbox and then symlink it to my Steam library folder on both devices... making effectively one massive install that updates at work when I install new cars or updates.... Just got to transfer 550GB over my phone connection.

 

[Silent_Scone]

What's all this fuss about GT7? Any good?

 

[BoatNonce]

I was going to post in here. Some of the latest round of updates have been great. Smoke looks and moves way better now…

RSS have released the RB9 which drives gr

GT racing looks as strong as ever

Skidding through gravel leaves 3D tyre grooves, these and skidmarks are saved between sess

And Android CarPlay is pretty pimp.



Considering this is a game that didn’t even have weather, it’s pretty bloody impressive.

Not sure I'm on the very latest one. Will have spend a quid and check lol.

Tried playing this to get a feel for Castle Combe last week. Forgot how irritating setting up my wheel was with it. Eventually got it driveable but even then after a few laps the throttle would pin itself and the car would just steer right. 😑

 

[BoatNonce]

That sounds like a wheel connection issue, Assetto is pretty decent for wheel compatability so if it works initially and then f***s up it’s probably not the setup.

What’s happening with that third place car in the GT race? Has it been on the ‘roids?

Don’t fat shame the M8 GTE 🤣

Was doing it on GT7 too. Found a random thread about using it plugged directly into a wall rather than an extension, seems to have worked from the session I had today.

 

[BoatNonce]

Weird one!

Ironically I relocated my computer lately and now I’m having a nightmare with my G27. Keeps coming up as a Driving Force when you plug it into the hub I have under my seat, tried all sorts, bloody thing.

Did you figure this out? Or still being a pain?

Was doing it on GT7 too. Found a random thread about using it plugged directly into a wall rather than an extension, seems to have worked from the session I had today.

So running a huge extension to power the tv/console/everything but the wheel worked but wasn't exactly a neat solution. If I tried it with the wheel into the extension and everything else straight in the wall it started failing again.

I decided that the aerial socket next to the single power socket that I had everything powered off originally was a bit redundant so took that off, took the single socket off the wall and found two sets of wiring going into it. Separated them between two single sockets and now have two power outlets on the wall. One for the wheel, one for everything else.

Nice and tidy, and it now fails even quicker than before. 😖

I've ordered a different power brick to try the wheel on then I think I'm out of ideas lol. Rewire the fecking house?

 

[BoatNonce]

Nope, resigned myself to having to run a second cable just for the wheel. f**king thing

Looking forward to setting up Content Manager again with the new PC bits.

LOL @ BIG M8

A classic

Chaps - what obvious bit am I missing regarding seeing rain effects with SOL & Content Manager? I have got the licenced version of CM as well.

I went through the very clear and well written installation procedure for SOL and picked an RX-7 race at Donington in heavy rain.

When the game started on the grid, the skies were dark and the lights on. Window wipers automatically sweeping, but not a drop of rain anywhere.

I'm missing something else - but not sure where I should be looking just yet?

Any advice would be welcome.
