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)!

[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.

458 vs 488 looks

    I never seen any discussion about this on the internet, so I thought I'd bring this up:
    What do you guys think of the looks of the 488 in comparison with the 458?

    IMO the 488 is not a bad looking car at all, but when you look at the 458, those winglets on the front, those little vents besides the headlights, that triple exhaust, it all looks perfect. While on the 488, that square front end, those air intakes on the sides, those "aerodynamic" door handles, it all looks like they tried to improve the 458 and it backfired. It's a really good looking car, the 488, but the 458 is pure perfection.

    So what's you guys' opinion on this? And if this thread seems a bit rubbish I apologize, it's 5 in the morning.

  3. Personally I much prefer the 488, though the front intakes are a little sharp, almost a bit Lamborghini. Always hated those eyelid thing on the 458's headlights, otherwise both are decent looking cars.

    I think the 488 is softer on the eyes, but I do like the 458 more, it would look fantastic with the 488's headlights.Another thing is, the 458 looks much more striking in real life, I don't know why, it actually seems lower and wider, even though it isn't, the 488 looks "chunkier".

    To me you have to consider the styling of the speciale, I think there's a lot of influence

    I like the 458's front end and the 488's back end. The back end of the 458 looks somehow try hardy to me with the wavy diffuser and thosse ghastly red reflector thingies, while the 488's front end is just a bit meh and I don't like it's headlight cluster. And I'm not a fan of the spindly stock rims of the 458, they just look generic as hell... not that I like the split forks of the 488 which are not that good looking either but they are not as boring as the 458's IMO. My rims fetish will soon be satisfied though because the new GT3/RS will most probably be coming to AC. :p

    But my personl favorite looker of that family line would be the 458 Speciale, especially with these ADV.1 rims because the stock rims are bad again on this one too-

    I would have thought this comment is made only by non-car people and ignorant Top Gear fans, there's a whole lot of difference :p.

    It took 3 years for the 458 Italia to grow on me, personally. It sounds great but looks wise it was one of my least favorite for awhile. To me, the 488 looks much smoother, much less aggressive and less sharp. It looks less racy than the 458, which I guess fits since its now got a muted twin turbo V8 instead of the high revving NA. The 458 Speciale looks the best in my opinion. 488 is a nice shape but looks way too plain for my taste.

    AC : 458 GT2 vs 488 GT3. 458 GT2 looks much more detailed, fresh, like there are hours more work spent on it. I like the 488 GT3(a lot) but in AC it looks almost like a 0.7 mod so to speak...:oops:

    Cheers

    The 458 is sex on wheels, the 488 is like the desperate ugly sister who can't get laid for love nor money.

    I like the 488 more, it looks racier, more filigree, more technical.
    There are a lot more little design elements on the 488, just look at the rear. The Italia was always a bit too clean for my taste, almost too feminine, just like most Porsche. The 488 screams "I'm a sportscar, I want to be driven hard" and doesn't whisper "Please take me to a shopping trip through Monaco". :D

    Took me a few years to grow into the 458. I Prefer the styling of the 488 as it looks like a face lifted version of the 458 Speciale which is a beast.

    However if I had to have 2 Ferrari's in my garage, it'd have to be the F40 and the F355.

    Exactly what I was thinking, too. Or the normal 458 with the back of the speciale.
    I think the 458 perfectly combines the smooth lines you expect from a Ferrari with some edges and lines some previous cars lacked without being too aggressive.

    Yes, those rims are amazing.


    If I had to take 2 cars, then F12, 288GTO and F40 would fight for 2nd place. 250GTO would be set in stone.
     
  17. Never been a fan of the 458's looks, it's awkward to me... Prefer the 488.

    488 for me.
    Not huge changes, but several right details that make the difference.
     
  19. I love the look of both cars, and can't wait for the road version of the 488GTB.

    I like the the 488's futuristic rear lights much better. But I like the 458's exhaust better. I'd say both are my pick.

    I don't really like either. These cars look a lot better with the GT race car body kits to me. Same thing with the McLaren MP4-12C and 650S btw.
