Just discovered a parameter in the system/cfg/assetto_corsa.ini file under [DAMAGE]. Parameter is GLASS_THRESHOLD=0.65. Wonder what affect, if any, that has?

To add to Gratulin's informative & helpful post, if you feel your modem isn't up to scratch you can try something new...

I'm using this thing: TP-LINK TD-W8960N  it's a modem/router, costs $50 (!!)
I'm also bridging it to an R7000 router.  Having said that, the little cheap tp-link is fantastic if you don't need very fast wifi.

Or if you need voip, too:  TP-LINK VG3631 - same sort of deal, $80, and works very well. I've bought one of these for my company office to replace an aging billion modem, and it's both faster & more reliable.

Both have QoS settings. (rather complicated, too - I haven't had to try it yet, but I will just for the fun of it, hehe)
I've found a helpful W8960N QoS setup manual, too :)
First thing would be to simply turn it on if not already on. Most router have a default categorisation of traffic. Problem will be that it mostly sets video and audio streaming to high priority which is the opposite to what you want.

I've configured Krahl's dedicated server, which he has kindly given me access to for experimenting, to be in a Lotus @ Nurb Sprint configuration - 15 cars only. It's a pickup server, called AUS www.xgn.com.au TUE DEDI.

I want to see if we get the same warping that we see on the regular server. So when you can, jump on that server, hopefully with a few guys, and see what the warping is like, and how it compares with Tuesday nights. It would be good if we can get Grubbet, EdWood and anyone else who often seems to warp quite a bit.
Wally, could we have some fun with the LaFerrari on the trial server?

I am 99% sure my warping issues are to do with either the line to my house or my shitty router. I have no issues when nobody else is using the net - it's quite good actually. As soon as my partner fires up Chrome my ping jumps - the more traffic the more jumping/warping I get.

I used to keep the 'net monitor' open so I could see when my ping spiked and avoid any accidents but they seem to have removed that app...  >:(

Same goes for other games/general internet usage. If more than one person is on it gets crippled.
Cramjet, if you have access to your router you should be able to set QoS on for the AC protocols. Since AC doesn't use much bandwidth but requires a low ping that might mitigate the impact of others on your network. Also, double check that you are not "double NATing" ie do you also have a hardware firewall between the telco router and your LAN. I have turned my Optus cable modem into Bridge mode to avoid that problem and because it too was a shitty router.

Mod Tracks / Re: "Keeper Tracks" for Assetto Corsa

Mid-Ohio!
I have that track but it isn't an approved conversion I think?

1852

not sure where someone saw "1.05" update
my install is 1.0.4 and connects to all 3 XGN servers\
all GUIDs are now updated
1.0.5 is in the update log and is only for server update I think. Version for client has remained at 1.0.4

1853
I'm faster in the Street tires. Is that what others are using?

I have just read that if the standard track map doesn't work in a track and you don't want to use the modder's MapDisplay app then you can fix it easily.

1. Delete "map.png" from track's folder and delete "map.ini" from track's Data folder. You can just move them to a backup location if you wish.
2. Run AC and launch the game in that track. You may get a crash of the game at this point. If you do then simply relaunch the game.
3. AC has then built a new track map for you.

Only do this if the standard map is not working. I've tried this out on this Cobra season's tracks and all are now working with a standard track map.

Catalunya updated to 1.3

Not mentioned in the update notes but it has collidable objects - 2 that I can find - the corner posts. The posts roll down the road once you have knocked them over.

How would we go if we set track to Green and temperature to 10c-15c and hard tires only?

1857

Is the 'lotus_exige_scura' fast?  Geez I'm gunna be in trouble next week me thinks...  ;D
You need to look up Dick's colour code to work that out :))

I've got a lot to learn in these road cars! I feel at home in a GT car or open wheeler, but had nothing in these. Are you guys using a H-shifter + manual clutch, blipping etc? I'm pretty hopeless at that sorta stuff so I chucked on auto clutch/blip and just used the paddles :p

Was good fun being a part of that pack in the final race

Hi Tom. A few masochists use the H-shifter here. I'm not one of them. Paddles and auto clutch for me.

+1 to what Dick said, me too lazy for all that heel toe muck  ;D
If you listen to the calm conversations some of the guys have while driving then you quickly work out that they need something extra to do to keep them occupied while driving :)

Me - I'm busy enough just trying to not run into anyone!

Having said that the H-shifter is really fun in the Cobra and it only has 4 gears!

1859
All good Freezer. I'm glad you told me on TS you were waiting for me because that woke me up and meant neither of us lost too many positions :) I usually lose lots of places after an off.

Will the RUF be a candidate as well? It is a 60s 911 isn't it?
