Its done when it dones, or ready when its ready, herd that before anywhere LOL

There is loads of Mods I am waiting for, and just looking at the "previews" they look really good but they are previews, which was my point. Mods are good very good for AC or any other game really, just as long as they are playable and make you think, "wow this WIP is good" not OMG what on earth is this.

I know I don't have to download the mods, but who wouldn't just to test

Fordie

@gabox I think from the previous replies, you are not only barking up the wrong tree, you are in totally the wrong forest to be fair.

Scawen and his team as you put it, are doing what they want and how they know best, it's as simple as that, so there is not subscription basis like IRacing as you put it.

It will be, as they said from day one, a one off payment for S3, but thank you for your outset and make us smile

Quote from sinbad :

I'm not interested in the crappy mod-tracks either. I like Dorifto because it feels like someone put some effort into making it drivable enough, and whilst it's very plain, it doesn't look like it's from 1999. I think some tracks are released purely because people want the plaudits, even if it's garbage.

Spot on Sinbad, that's what I think as well

Quote from Matrixi :

I think you're judging early mod content a bit too hard there. Give the bloke some time to work out the bugs, and it'll be better. No need to download/use it until then.

Imagine if he hadn't released it, then the thread would be full of "OMG RLS IT ALREADY PLZZ I DUN CARE" -people.

I don't think I was to hard, it was obviously incomplete to a level that was laughable...so why release it, that was my point. Yeah, what he is doing it great but not at this level....Show a preview or someting like that, no release the half done content and expect praise??

Fordie

Quote from The Moose :

Oh dear. Track surface is ridiculous and it completely kills my framerate.

He's got a shitload of work to do on that track. Think ill just wait for the official laser scanned version.

Yeah I agree Moose, this is what I posted "This is what I am afraid of, unfinished polished content being released way before it is finished....Stuff like this will kill AC. I am up for public mods, but please at least make sure they are drivable and finished before they are released"

I think that is a fair and true statement

Quote from Matrixi :

Not sure about ready, but released atleast.

and if you like a bumpy ride turning your car in to a pinball machine, then yeah, well worth the wait....NOT

Quote from Matrixi :

To get enough power from solar panels for any meaningful bitcoin mining you'd need a massive FIELD of panels, and the cost of that would mean you'd need to mine for like 500 years just to get back what you put in to the panels and batteries.

The cost to even power something tiny that only takes a few watts max like a Raspberry Pi with solar panels is over 100 euros (I looked in to doing it) so imagine what it would be like to do it with an array of AMD graphic cards which are easily 200-300W each. Mining with a single/mid-tier card isn't profitable anymore.

Bitcoin isn't really even worth doing it all anymore. Every professional economist I know of says it's a horrible idea as a currency. If you got in to it early, it was a great investment target, but it's a shit currency due to its volatile nature and the limited places that accept it today.

Totally agree, and the fact it's been in the news so all of sundry know about it now......its a non profit investment now

Quote from simulation :

I don't know if the statement has any truth to it. but I heard unless you have dedicated mining rig, what you make in bit coins you will have to spend on the electricity cost to mine them.

Yeah I heard the same, that's why I said, unless you have a power processing machine it's not worth it, especially now it's all public and in the news, you know everybody is going to be jumping on it

Fordie

I don't have your answer Ant, but I suspect, if it was that easy, then every body would use their computer as a Mine. I have read up on it as well, but the processing power you need, but ( this is why ATI/AMD GFX cards are priced through the roof at the moment as they work harder and faster) so unless you have a dedicated PC purely for mining....I would forget it mate

Like they always say, if it looks like I cheap way to make money, it usually isn't LOL

Fordie

No sign on the MP as yet then

Fordie

your slower going sideways, it may be an art, but your times are slower. I thought racing was about laptimes, not how you control you rear end

Quote from e2mustang :

i dont think this game represents real life physics. i cant do anything in game that i can do irl. like drifting

Well you must have some setup issues then, as I, like so many other's the cars react how they should do ( as I think) with a wheel setup....Its not only close to LFS...it is on par with LFS, imho, and I have not raced / played anything else but LFS since 2003.

Fordie

Quote from The Very End :

The question stands however, should the LFS developers sue AC developers for stealing their copyright material, "Soon™"?

What do you mean TVE

Fordie
oh ignore me, I missed your sarcasm ROFL

Quote from NotAnIllusion :

Oh well, at least we've got something to watch meanwhile https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WljD-BhFerY

OMG ROFL

Fordie

Oh well, at least it a Bank Holiday weekend, well in UK it is

Fordie

PS - And due a really kind Horus, I have 2 T7R skins

Quote from CodeLyoko1 :

options>general>RSR app(enable it)

Yeah that's the problem, it's not there

Fordie

I will just add, LFS isn't dead, it's from it...It's slowed down yes I agree, but it's not dead. It's only dead when the Devs say "sorry we are not developing this any further" and they haven't as far as I am aware, so dead or not, discussion over

And like CardsetCrazy said this is an AC thread and am I bloody loving that

Just struggling to get the RSR working..I followed the instructions, but it doesn't appear on the menu ( it does on the in car apps screen ) but not on the main menu....

Any idea's?

Cheers

Fordie

Hay AC experts....I have posted a question on the AC forums, but as I am new, not sure if it will get seen, so I thought I would post it here as well, as at least I know I will get an answer here

http://www.assettocorsa.net/fo ... eads/triple-screens.8984/

That is the the thread, but this is the post:

I have looked around the forum, and all I find is "compare" not a this is how you do it.

I have a GTX 750ti, using the DVI and VGA, and also the onboard Intel VGA to have triple screens. Does AC support this??

I saw a youtube vid, telling me to edit the video.ini file to the resolution I wanted, which I took this from LFS, as LFS works, but AC only displayed on my 2nd screen.

Here is my setup

Screen 1: Max res 1440 x 900 Wide (DVI) ( centre screen)
Screen 2 Max res 1600 x 900 Wide (vga) (right hand screen)
Screen 3 Max res 1600 x 900 Wide (vga and Onboard Intel GFX) (left hand screen)

Any help / advice is gratefully received

Fordie

Quote from Ball Bearing Turbo :

Welcome to the next big thing for sim-racing Fordie

Must be exciting to have that new gear installed and firing up AC for the first time in anticipation, thanks for sharing that. Good times.

I also had to give LFS a bash, would be rude not to. So I went from Min/Middle settings, triple screen with 35-40fps, to max everything out and triple screen and now have over 140fps

Basically I have gone from this:
Intel I3-2120 @3.3ghz
8GB Ram
H61 Chipset
Geforce 210 GFX Card

to this:
Intel I3-2120 @3.3ghz
16GB Ram
Z77 Pro3 Chipset
Geforce GTX 750ti

Quote from Boris Lozac :

Fordie, why don't you add "Fordie" in the sig, so you don't have to always write it manually, Fordie?

I have been doing it so long its just habit, you would end up with two Fordie's, and I think one Fordie is enough

Fordie

I just wanted to say..on my initial test, on a FWD drive car of course, as that is what I prefer......

OMG.....FECKIN HELL!!!!!!....THIS IS BLOODY AWESOME

The car does what the wheel says it should do, loads of under stear for a FWD, standard setup of course, its just amazing, plain and simple.

Seriously people, if anybody and I mean anybody is thinking about AC whether to purchase it, and this is only the early release, MP out next week, I would seriously spend your money......

For a first timer, yes its difficult, but LFS was as well when you first started...

I am sold...big time

Right back to it LOL Adious
Fordie

I have a problem with my wheel at the moment, it will only turn or show to trun 45 degress's either way, but it is showing this in the profiler as well, so working on it

Fordie

Quote from sinbad :

Minimum frame latency : 1
It's in DX11 cfg file in the AC steam folder.

After that get it to where you like it.

Cheers Sinbad

Fordie

So what things should I do first, I.e setup wise (GFX, Wheel, Settings in Game) etc etc as I know there is some hardcore AC drivers out there, so any tips to get me on the road, in quick smart time, would be greatfully appreciated.

Oh I have a G27 btw

Thanks very much
