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).

    INTRO
    Hi all,
    super happy to announce ACCDirector, a broadcast client application for ACC, this app is really similar to the official client made by Kunos.

    All the panels are movable (click on the name or on an area that doesn't is a button or a checkbox and drag it).

    PRELIMINARY STEPS
    1) Setup ACC to enable broadcasting:
    Edit your Documents\Assetto Corsa Competizione\Config\broadcasting.json
    and at least set a updListenerPort. This config mirrors the test client's default values, so you can just click Connect:

    Code:
    {
        "updListenerPort": 9000,
        "connectionPassword": "asd",
        "commandPassword": ""
    }
    2) Start a race session in Single Player or join a Multiplayer server

    3) In the Connection panel, press "Connect". If the configuration matches the small checkbox in the Connection panel will become green.

    Source.

    Why is your app not connected to ACC?

    Have you launched a Single Player session or joined a Multiplayer server before hit the Connect button?

    Is it possible to launch ACCDirector on a separate screen?
    I have ACC on my main-screen and I want to have ACCD on my second screen.

    Sure, press F11 to switch on windowed mode and move it where you need :)

    One thing I would love to see is some form of 'auto-director' similar perhaps to what RaceRoom offers.
    Basically, it analyses the timings and things like that to decide on which car to focus on, i.e if a car is < .5 behind another it gains "weight" based on how close it is. There are other factors too which can add weight to a car for potential exposure, such as if they are in a yellow flag zone etc. The one with the most weight is focused on for a period of time before being re-evaluated.
    During focus, after a short time say 10 - 15 seconds, the camera can switch to give a different perspective.

    This allows for it to be used to broadcast without requiring anybody to control it and keep an eye on the action, great for clubs where everybody wants to race and not actually sit there controlling cameras.
    95% of our youtube videos are done from R3E without intervention, if you wanted to see an example and it works really well, for the most part.
    i.e



    Do you think something like this be a possibility?

    Yes, is possible (or at least something similar), it will take time but i can do it, i have to decide if put my energy on web and mobile version of ACCD or in this "auto director" feature.

    Nice to hear it's possible, I understand things take time and you have to prioritise... Personally, I think it would be awesome and would benefit lots of people (especially clubs/leagues)
    Not many titles offer such a feature, which is a shame.

    The only cons is that who run ACCD still has to be a spectator, i can't avoid it.
     
  17. FX2K

    FX2K Racer

    Yeah, that's expected. Currently, I have a second machine setup to run R3E. I basically join as a spectator, set the auto-director going and the stream, then hop over to my rig and race ;)
    Would do the same with ACC if it becomes possible.

    UE4 will do the "big stuff", i only have to test a build and see if i have to add some code for the wi-fi connection.

    I don't know OSC but i think you can do it, on my own i'm using UE4 because i know it pretty well and is easy for me make interfaces with UMG.

    Has to be a spectator in the sense that you can't drive while the client is focusing others cars and cameras, i tried to drive with track cameras and is not a simple task :p

    Or maybe i miss something o_O
