A no aero basic open wheeler would be great as would some v8's and aussie tracks.

Just saw this post showing all PP effect settings in v1. Doesnt look hugely different to what it is atm for me but I just hope they fixed the SLI bug so we can use PP effects without needing to render 6 reflection faces.

I don't get it; I've used those post processing thingos without problems.  They look crap, too, so I'm not fussed about them at all.
These screenshots aren't telling the whole story, mind you; you need to try them in-game.

They are all a bit similar. They do show a range of depth of field though. But here is the thing. These are Post Processing effects. The key word here is Post. These effects really only look good in stills. It's a bit too fantasy like with too much PP. Our eyes do manage depth of field a hell of a lot better than a camera lens. You don't really notice that the background / foreground is out of focus around whatever we are looking at, the focal point, in real life (unless you consciously look for it) Where as these photo's it stands out like dogs nuts.

  If my poor computer could handle it with more than one car, I'd leave the god rays and misty stuff on but the depth of field stuff off.

PS.. We better get the RC today,

I assume the other assholes are co-workers/testers/whatever. if it was public version it would just be 'assholes'.. I like how shit stirring is universal.
 Though Australians take it to the next level maybe even too far.

From above link.

It is close. Extremely close. Very soon the full 1.0 release of Assetto Corsa will be publicly available. Five years in the making, this racing simulator from the Italian development house Kunos Simulazioni has been the subject of intense anticipation and expectation.

Is tonight the nite us Assholes get to play, lucky I have the day off tomorrow if it is. Was going to play some golf but may stay on AC if its up and get some laps in at Spa. Robbins would have to be epic there.
