Stefano casillo streaming ep. 7

I am absolutely loving the gyro, stand still, and low speed correction that he is discribing in the stream. Another thing that was nagging at me, and just like Stefano I was thinking that it is just the way the physics engine handles these situations. It is nice to be wrong. Yet another thing that makes Assetto Corsa creep closer to reality.

Edit: Also those fore mentioned is planned for 1.2.
Another thing is the stall feature that would be coming to 1.3, which is again Awesooome!

Edit2: "...so that's the perfect racing game, where you start and your car doesn't move, and then you exit... and go to steam and ask for a refund, so that's perfect!" Hahahahahaha!!! Cracked me up!

 

@Minolin: "its Lupus"

I love that he has decided to give engine stall a chance. wheehoo

Just a small thought I had recently about this topic: Maybe for the console version the engine restart procedure could be initiated automatically afer a small delay to simulate a manual start, because of a possible lack of buttons left on console, maybe if happen at all,... how ever.

 

Stefano said and stressed that is issue was not related to FF, but it came out from physics at low speeds.
Then I presume that in 1.2 we'll have a FF that receive a polished input from physics.

 

Has anyone figured out (still haven't got to the end of the stream), if this bug that was causing the oscilation and vibration, does it mean it won't shake like crazy now when i'm standing still in the pits? That is driving me crazy

 

I assume it means we'll be able to set heavier FFB without shaking.

Personally I'm not a fan of sharp jerking FFB I prefer smooth strong more realistic forces. Many seem to associate the jerking with somehow feeling the road and seem to prefer more lively FFB. Stefano saying it felt like his G27's FFB was turned off also has me slightly concerned, my only concern with AC's FFB is still the lack of pull to centre feel when running straight..

 

It makes me happy to see that Stefano realizes that the AI go into stupid mode when they are stuck on the outside while getting passed.

 

Did I understand correctly that a server admin can add ballast to individual users on the fly? Pretty cool if correct.

 

It sounded like Stefano said that.

 

Did he say 1.2 would be released before his next stream (or was it before next Sunday)? And his next stream would be Wednesday?

 

No he didn't say 1.2 would be out before the next stream; which is Wednesday I believe.
He hopes it will be out before the end of July as that was the month they were aiming for

 

He said it is probably last weekend session before release and without some bad bug, release should be this week.

Bye, Franc

 

We will need that added to the admin app and I should be able to win every race from that point on.

May need to have a way to limit which admins have access to this otherwise I can imagine if a few are in we will all end up with rather heavy cars.

 

I think this was mentioned before? I'm not sure though.

EDIT: I think it's in the changlog "Add FF low speed reduction factor..." line.

 

I hope not or at least not in the form that came to my mind after reading "on the fly" in your post. It might get out of control if it will be as easy as 'click to add --kg to guy X' during the race. This would be ridiculous IMO.

 

1.2 will be epic. As simple as that.

 

I'm most excited about the FFB changes tbh. I really wonder how it'll feel now.

 

Can't wait to drive that Nissan GTR Nismo

 

Also in the end I think Stefano misunderstood a question about his vision about AC 2.0. I think people are asking about future updates while Stefano was talking about a sequel.

He said there was no vision atm for AC2. I don't know if this is good news or bad news though

 

It means that he and the team are planning to spend the next year or two supporting and updating AC 1.x before even starting to think about beginning work on AC 2.x IMO
