Title: Assetto Corsa?
Post by: JamoZ on May 09, 2014, 11:04:12 PM
Does any of you guys also play the racing sim Assetto Corsa? Since multiplayer got released today, i thought it would be fun to host a PiBoSo server to have some 4 wheeled fun?

*Don`t know if posts like these are allowed, it is WRS competition after all  ::)

I think there is no problem to have a thread like that (on MXB forum they're talking about MXS, MXGP). I just moved it in the right section (non related to PiBoSo sims)  :)


We are several to play it on Motonline (Alibaskins (again the best  ;D), JC#21, Juju (selected at developper's choice for a skin), Kunnn, etc).

I saw that few GPB-Italia members play it too so yeah, it can be fun to have same people on track but with 4-wheels.

Unfortunately, the AC's multiplayer seems to be a mess ATM, so I'm waiting to see how it will be manged in the future.


And if you guys want to have fun together on 4-wheel, we still have WRS, which can be a lot of fun if we're more than 3 on track  ;)

I haven't tried it yet (I will just for fun, I have the game but I don't have a wheel), but the guys at GPB italia (oDi, skerp, buggi, ALEale) did various races tonight.

Their lobby/booking system is a bit of a pain at the moment (maybe also due to the high number of players), but once in a race everything is smooth as silk: no crashes, no lag, just perfect.

As soon as somebody finds how to host a private server ...

I can host a lobby, that`s not a big deal. I just need to know what time ;) Would be great if we could get the french & italian guys in there aswell.

Yeah, kittens are so overrated ... let's exterminate them ! Last trailer from P-cars looks freakin' amazing (visuals).

But I have to add that some serious players I've discussed with reports that AC physics ... mmhhh ... some doubts ...

Don`t know if you guys are joking about the physics, but for me ( i play with a wheel ) everything that the cars do make perfect sense. I got a certain control over the cars i`ve never felt in any other sim so far, it`s all perfectly natural.

Not joking: these comments come from people also playing/having tested WRS, rFactor and iRacing, with iRacing being the more convincing one in terms of physics (and WRS not bad at all).

Well, i also played all the sims you can imagine, for many many years. Sure, no sim is perfect as it`s impossible to simulate 100% accurate at the moment. But for me personally, i find AC to be the most convincing one at the moment, with iRacing as a good 2nd after their recent tire model update.

Opinions are just that ... opinions. It wasn't even my own one (I do have AC, but I bought it just too see how it looks, I don't even have a wheel).

How do you rate WRS ?

MaX.
Title: Re: Assetto Corsa?
Post by: JamoZ on May 11, 2014, 06:05:16 PM
I love WRS physics, they also have something really natural about them. Maybe not enough low speed grip, but certainly on par with rf2 and far better then pCARS. It`s just the lack of features & content that stop WRS from being a big sim amongst the settled names.

Also, AC is perfectly playable with a controller. Take a look at these settings, i tried them on my 360 controller and it really makes for smooth handling instead of the sensitive default settings :

"Try this: instead of selecting "xbox 360 gampad" select "wheel/custom" then:

1- config the joystick as a wheel, assign steering to the analog you wish, and throttle , brakes, then shifters, and so on.
2- set wheel rotation at 40 degrees
3- go to "advanced" > "steering settings" > Gamma: 2.00, Filter: 0.90, Speed sensitivity: 0.13

This settings works for cars like the Lotus Evora, Elise, Evora GTC/GX, most road cars. other cars will require to lower Speed sensitivity even more depending on the car.

issues:
Due to not been able to separate throttle and brake axis, you can't properly blip the gas while braking.
You loose rumble functionality."

I'll give it a try, but las ttime I tried it with the pad it was already pretty playable.
But I'm not a big car games fan and I definitely do not have the time for that on top of GPB and its stuff.

just tried your settings the game is totally another experience on a 360 gamepad with this setting,it feels as it should ,ive been trying all types of settings that i found online but they all felt like stupid ,the e30 with this setting is so realistic thanks man,i have a wheel but i like more relaxed playing so i never use it,thanks again,you should put this settings on steam thats where most people go when looking for settings i think
Title: Re: Assetto Corsa?

Yep those settings work really well, especially me like them on the ferrari 312T.

Thx for sharing Jamoz

And as a consequence, the mother of the dead kittens is heartbroken and commits suicide too.

It's a kitten massacre. They are almost extinct.

Well, sort of. I`ve mounted it to my headset just to see how something like this would work out. I want to do a video soon of a fast lap around the Nordschleife, with one cam on my wheel and another one aimed at my pedals for some sweet heel/toe action ;)

How do I get extra tracks on AC?
Title: Re: Assetto Corsa?
Post by: JamoZ on May 17, 2014, 01:22:28 PM
Look on the AC forum, there are a couple of W.I.P tracks released, but most are not of good quality and i shouldn`t really bother with them if i were you. Laguna Seca is decent, and Snoopy`s Nordschleife is ok, but other then that they`re mostly crap conversions..
Title: Re: Assetto Corsa?
Post by: BOBR6 84 on May 18, 2014, 07:32:45 PM
Ok thanks, il probably wait until the game is complete to be honest..

Great sim though! Probably the best car racer iv ever played.. Feels great! Even with my 360 pad (dont do wheels)..

It transformed the game using your settings! Nice 1 ;)
Been playing RaceRoom, Racing experience too.. Thats pretty good but I play car games in cockpit view and the steering animation lets that game down for me..

Asetto corsa much more natural and realistic..
