Server runs in practice mode from now, until the event proper starts.

Quote from ACCAkut :

Interesting touch including the Cobra, if only they had the same helpful attitude towards the rest of the Modding forum, maybe that will come once the 1.0 is out.

To be honest I can't really see any other mods getting the dev's attention. Though it looks like the Mazda 787B is going to hit that level since it already looks badass. Oh and maybe the MX-5 too. The Cobra was a top mod quality-wise and it was a great act from the devs to sort it out this way. That should inspire modders to do quality job. Most of the current mods is junk. :|

Half an hour but it's worth watching.

More English Tracks, Oulton Park......Oh yes please

Fordie

Downloading the vid ...
BTW, I do not see any mention of weather ... no rain planned in AC ? I have lots of fun doing some uncontrolled drift on dusty traks , I supose a rainy environment should not be out of possibilities for those guys

No rain in 1.0, probably not for a long time after that either.

I am not convinced by the speech, anyway ... up to them to do it or not ! I still hope seeing it into LFS one day ^^

PS : not to mention that they bought Nordschleife and Spa licenses and they do not want to put rain into the game ? hum hum ... no comment

Yeah yeah! Laserscanned nordschleife. How can they say no to rain after that?

I'd count myself to the producers of junk mods then Still like to know how to set shaders for glass and/or lights in the editor tho

Looks like RC 1.0 is supposed to be out today: https://mobile.twitter.com/KunosStefano/status/522345318638047233

looks like I will have to mount the Wheel to do some laps tonight

I can see the changelog, but no update yet

Reason enough to fire it up.

Edit, Downloading the update now. Well timed.

omg ... 3.1Go ...at 50Ko/s I let you imagine
edit : 300Ko/s now ... 1.9Go left ^^

I haven't played AC for a while, I didn't even try previous update with the new ffb, so this will be a big leap for me.

I'm most curious about the new sound engine. Just in case, to keep the sound files, I made a backup of the whole car folder.

Eight cars, three tracks ...I like

edit: 666k/bit but 3 GB ...

Every time I update AC my Nod32 tells me it's a virus at very last stage, when downloanding ACserver.exe so just a reminder for people with same antivirus, disable it, because the update will fail to download and time gets lost.

I got that thing too, so I just restored it from the quarantine. The update seems to be downloading fine after it. So I'll see when it finishes.

The Rift DK2 support is a complete joke. Requires setting Rift as primary monitor, tracking and scale is completely off too. It's like they put zero efforth in it.

Trento hillclimb missing?

E: It's not in the hotlap mode but it can be found in practice mode.

download stopped at 40% with an error, and after a Steam Refresh the whole client won't connect anymore.

"cannot join server: no available slots"
=can not play online...

Also the collision sounds were bizarre against ai. Sometimes there is no sound when you hit them and when there is a sound it comes late...

Has anyone got a good brake setting for G25 pedals? On the default setting it seems to go from no braking to locked brakes in about 10% of the travel, for some of the cars.

Multiplayer still a load of buggy un-user-friendly crap.

Well the career mode is exactly the same shit as gran turismo. "Super insanely easy win it in T1 and hotlap the rest of the race alone" kind of grind where you need to do something like 3/5 of the races to "progress" to the next level. Useless crap gimmick feature imho.

The flatspot ffb is kinda good kinda bad. At first I thought it was ffb bug . I love it from realism pov but at the same time I'm really worried how long or soon that ffb vibration will destroy my ffb racing wheel. Plus having that feature will just make racing without abs even less possible. Now abs is so much faster that racing without abs is something like 1-1,4s handicap per lap at least. Not to mention you are really easy to pass in the longer braking zones. Add flatspot vibrations and basically we have situation where the game is basically designed to be driven with abs. I don't mind giving that ~1s away to drive without abs but I don't want to destroy my wheel with the ffb vibrations...

Also collisions sounds are imho broken. There is some strange lag, sometimes no collision sounds at all and at one point I did not even hit anyone and the game made a sound like someone just opened can of beer on the backseat.
