1. Do you need support for Assetto Corsa Competizione? Please use the proper forum below and ALWAYS zip and attach the WHOLE "Logs" folder in your c:\users\*youruser*\AppData\Local\AC2\Saved. The "AppData" folder is hidden by default, check "Hidden items" in your Windows view properties. If you report a crash, ALWAYS zip and attach the WHOLE "Crashes" folder in the same directory. Do not post "I have the same issue" in an existing thread with a game crash, always open your own thread. Do not PM developers and staff members for personal troubleshooting and support.
  2. As part of our continuous maintenance and improvements to Assetto Corsa Competizione we will be releasing small updates on a regular basis during the esports season which might not go through the usual announcement process detailing the changes until a later version update where these changes will be listed retrospectively.
  3. If ACC doesn't start with an error or the executable is missing, please add your entire Steam directory to the exceptions in your antivirus software, run a Steam integrity check or reinstall the game altogether. Make sure you add the User/Documents/Assetto Corsa Competizione folder to your antivirus/Defender exceptions and exclude it from any file sharing app (GDrive, OneDrive or Dropbox)! The Corsair iCue software is also known to conflict with Input Device initialization, if the game does not start up and you have such devices, please try disabling the iCue software and try again. [file:unknown] [line: 95] secure crt: invalid error is a sign of antivirus interference, while [Pak chunk signing mismatch on chunk] indicates a corrupted installation that requires game file verification.
  4. When reporting an issue with saved games, please always zip and attach your entire User/Documents/Assetto Corsa Competizione/Savegame folder, along with the logs and the crash folder (when reporting related to a crash).

Tire temp/pressure management and asymmetrical setups

    I used to know how to optimise tire pressures and temps but I confess I got lazy and have forgotten how I went about it in older sims like GTR2.

    I'm trying to get on the pace in the Cayman GT4 at Donnington National. I have created an asymmetrical setup because the track layout is all right turns and that has helped to give me even temps and (I think) better grip after a fifteen-lap stint. My lap times are now respectable but I still need to shave off another second to bring me to the RSR median for this combo. I'm finding the car a little pushy.

    The things I'd really appreciate some assistance with are these:

    - What is the optimal temp, now that I've got all four tires at almost equal hot temps and how do I adjust tire pressures to get there (either up or down)? I'm seeing ~61 degrees all round after fifteen laps at the moment using a 5 psi left/right pressure differential.

    - What is the rule of thumb for optimising the temp spreads and is this influenced by camber settings? If not, what?

    I know this is basic stuff but if anyone has the patience to lay it out for me I would be much obliged; I do not have the scientific brain for anything too technical but a solid rule of thumb would be most welcome, thanks in anticipation.
