Can you check the file size/type please? As per http://www.assettocorsa.net/forum/index.php?threads/13509/

You want me to sacrifice a good paint job for smooth gameplay?? you're dreaming!

I'm not sure how big the files are. 800 odd megs sounds about right.
These cobra skins have less to them than the Tatuus and the E30's though.
Well I didn't find any driver skins, pit crew skins etc..

~16 Mb is best.

I can't access my dropbox at work.
would you mind letting me know how big my files are? So I can start working out what I need to do.
There are two skins in the zip

800 meg skins sound fine, 8gb for 10 cars shouldnt be an issue for any gfx cards not to mention the other textures and models for tracks and cars.  ;)

I've forgotten how big the skin files are really. some people leave .PSD files in them which can be as big as 2 gig. but AC won't be looking for .PSD files so I can't see how they would interfere.

I think the AC forum post is a bit of a red herring. I'm sure all the textures etc are loaded once when you load up the track and thats it?

The AC post is only talking about the DDS files. The issue is loading them into the video card's VRAM, wasting space if the textures are way too big.

thanks Wally!

the skin issue is easy to solve in the end, if you can resiize .DDS files make them 2048x2048

I just did that with one of the cobra CramDick skins. You cant really notice any loss in quality. maybe a few bits up close..

The file went from 92.8mb to 27.5mb so i'll bee doing that from now on.


i'll update these skins tomorrow arov.

Kinda tropical, I like it. Thanks! Makes me think I should wear a straw hat instead of a helmet while driving it.
