Assetto Corsa Competizione - Generic discussion

Is Lord Kunos watching Barcelona? = generating FCY/SC code

 

Looking at the current real life Barcelona race, I have to say, that the track rubbering in ACC is completely wrong. In real life, the racing line is clean and in ACC, it's the other way around.

 

Anyone know if you crash in practice for example in championship mode and use the menu shortcut to return to pits, does it automatically fix the damage?
If not, do you have to drive back for that to happen or maybe it doesn't get repaired at all?

I've done this and its not obvious to me my damage was repaired, how am I to know?

 

If higher number is more damping, then that's backwards from common irl practice.

To be frank it's been this way since the very first days of AC and I personally always thought it looked terrible.

Reminds me of this

 

I'm slowly catching up again with ACC and manage to do ~2 - 3 hours of racing per week. Thanks to the quickjoin button, I usually get a good race very quickly. Racing quality, sound and visuals, stability and the physics are top notch by now. Fixing the curb bug is a MASSIVE improvement - much more than I would have thought. Increased FFB frequency feels great for me and the UI is also neat. Scrolling dash pages and changing car parameters on the fly with the MFD works like a charm.

Last race was 45 minutes (quite long for me) around Spa. Good race, very tactical and clean, gained some unexpected positions towards the end of the race and then also lost one in penultimate lap because I spun The Aston is quite tricky - it changes behaviour quite drastically after ~ 35 minutes. Requires a change of brake balance, TC and also driving style. After this change of behaviour, it's best to hold back on the trail braking and in case of a late braking, better keep going straight and mess up the line than to force the car in. Seems very challenging and realistic. I really love this sim.

 

Oh, one funny thing happened to me, though - through Eau Rouge, close to the 2nd apex (right hand side), I felt something like an impact from another car on the right but there was no car. It bumped me to the left, a lot, like a meter or so. It happened only in 1 lap and I don't remember doing anything differently than in all the other laps. I wasn't on the curb when it happened, btw. I was on tarmac and everything felt well under control.

 

A replay would have been interesting. This sounds quite like you hit the curb, which are quite steep on the inside.

 

I was nowhere near the curb.

And since when does a curb feel like a car bumps you from the side? I know very well how a curb impact feels in ACC and how a car side impact feels. It's totally different.

 

Sounds like you got boinked! Seriously.. This a rare thing and I have only had this happen a couple of times however I have not had it happen since the new tyre model went live. This is an example video in one of the threads, I just have to remember which thread its in..

 

@LeDude83

 

I think that's the same thing that happened to me, thanks for posting!

 

no worries pal

 

I haven't had this eau rouge bump happen in a long time but seeing it still happening maybe it's time to do something about it?

 

Maybe you guys with the boink of death can provide the setups of the cars?

 

Bentley 2018, standard aggressive.

 

so default..

 

For me it was the Aston safe setup with 2 or 3 clicks less rear wing, brake bias some clicks to the front and 2 clicks less TC.

 

It also happened to me yesterday in Single Player. It was either with the Lexus or the GT-R, can't remember which since I ran races with both.

 

Quick Q - someone mentioned earlier about changing brake bias later in a race to accommodate tyre wear.. I'm finding brake bias adjustments to be a bit of a dark art (particularly in ACC where you have ABS and don't really lock up, at least not noticeably). As the tyres go off, what would you do to the brake bias?
