A couple of urgent fixes

Thank you for all the reports, they really helped us to focus on some important issues before proceeding with the addition of new features. Here are some of fixes we have been working on:

• Missing audio fixed (renaming the soundbank in 0.2.5 was a questionable idea, but with a more u...

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

Thank you all for waiting! For this update, we decided to primarily focus on stability, but there are some interesting new additions as well.

Ice and studded tyre physics

SurfacesFX got a new addition, the new ice physics. Regular tyres wouldn’t do that much on ice,...

Rally guide & some news about CM Workshop

Considering how helpful the previous guide video was, we’ve prepared another one, this time about the new rally mode. Hopefully it’ll be just as useful!

As for development, for the past...

Rally mode and more

For the past couple of months, we were primarily focused on a couple of things related to rally, to put Surfaces FX module adding off-road physics to a good use. One of those is a new app meant to function as a copilot, showing and voicing details about upcoming turns, and another is a new mode f...

Further improvements to LCS and SurfacesFX, online replays, radio app and a bunch of fixes

As always, it took a bit longer than I hoped, but it’s not only the fixes, there are some new quality-of-life improvements as well. And, of course, a lot of fixes, since it’s going to be the next public update too.

Linear color space and default WeatherFX style updates<...

Linear color space

When it comes to rendering, Assetto Corsa always had this problem where all the shading was done in so called gamma space. That’s a common mistake (and in fact, some years ago most videogames were doing things this way), and while I became aware of the fact some time ago, only recently I realiz...

Introductory guide

If you’re just getting accustomed with various Assetto Corsa mods, the whole thing might seem confusing at first, knowing what to do and in what order. In order to help my friends made an excellent video showing how to download and set everything up. Give it a watch if you need a quick introduc...

Happy holidays and joyful New Year!

Despite all my efforts, a few bugs managed to make it in with the last update, so here are just a few more quick bugfixes. Issues like AI drivers leaving pits at once, new option in VR tweaks messing up FFB, problems with Lua audio (including WeatherFX styles), as well as some specific crashes, s...

Nothing but fixes (almost)

While the previous update had quite a few fixes, unfortunately with all the new features it also introduced a bunch of new bugs, so this time I tried my best to stop myself from getting distracted and focus primarily on fixing things. Let’s see if it has made a difference, but I’m hoping CSP ...

Lots of fixes

For the final stretch we focused on fixing bugs, trying to get something more stable than usual. So, there aren’t too many new features, but there are still a few.

• Windscreen reflections: a new still experimental feature of WindscreenFX adding live dynamic reflections for windscreen...

A few small fixes

There were quite a few fixes in the last build, but unfortunately a few regressions as well, so here is a quick fix I was working on for the past few days, this one hopefully should work better.

Changes:

• Wet surfaces looking red/green fixed (debug view somehow managed to leak thro...

Finalizing update

Since the last update we were working on preparing a functional and reliable public build, so, again, mostly fixes and improvements, a lot of them related to features for developers and content creators. And now, a bit more testing and I believe this build (without rain for now) can be made publi...

Maintanence update

Getting very close to the next public update, for this build we mostly focused on fixing all sorts of issues. A lot of internal stuff has been rewritten from scratch, a lot of bugs old and new were solved, so the whole thing should run smoother now. There are also a new things that might be quite...

AIs update for RainFX and some other changes

Rain is still being finalized (sorry about even its rewrite taking so long), but there are already some changes for another preview build which might be worth testing. And now I’m going to try my best to get the public release out as soon as possible, with all the changes that have been made. 2023-04-24 01:26:00 +0000 UTC View Post

Happy New Year!

Public update might take a bit longer than anticipated since a few more bugs have popped up, but here is a quick fix with some changes:

• RainFX: issue with distant surfaces fixed, static rain intensity set in online servers now is adjusted to keep things compatible (basically multiplied ...

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

Barely managed to finish the update in time, and unfortunately the public update will have to wait for another day or two, I need to do more testing and fix a couple of small issues first. There are quite a lot of new additions, and some of them might need more work.

Most important change i...

Gameplay improvements, trees, new visual effects and more

Had a bit of a hiccup in performance, but things are back to proper mode of operation now, so more new features (and, of course, fixes and documentation) are coming soon! As for this update, there are still a few new interesting things:

Trees (not yet procedural)
