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).

GT4 DLC Cost still wrong?

    Hi

    As of today the GT4 DLC has been launched on Xbox Live. Upon looking at it in my currency, it appears to be $20 CAD (compared to $20 USD).

    Why is the GT4 DLC on Steam priced still at $27 CAD? It was told that the pricing was correct based on regional pricing, but why do Xbox users get it for so much cheaper (and realistically.. what it should have been priced at in CAD)?

    I know you guys went to the publisher who signed off on these prices.. but they're not very equitable... complaints for months about PC regional pricing being incorrect and it's gone unfixed, yet it launches at a reasonable price on Xbox months later...

    I still haven't purchased the GT4 pack because I'm waiting for the price to get fixed, because despite the publisher indicating it's correct, clearly it's still incorrect as they've released it on Xbox with much more equitable pricing.

    Even looking at SteamDB, which has the Valve formula for regional pricing.. has the GT4 DLC set $5 too expensive. Source: https://steamdb.info/sub/467683/

    Why is 505 Games trying to jack the price up on the GT4 DLC in other regions? They're above the Valve suggested pricing in every single region, by 200+% in some cases.

    It happens all the time with software. Different markets will always have different prices. Comparing the US costs to another country will never be equal.

    For example if you have ever had to deal with Microsoft and licencing costs, you'll find each region has a completely different price. Talk to someone who might be in marketing or sales and they can explain it but simply put, companies don't charge the same amount in each region, they adjust based on many many factors, software that can sell for 30 bucks in one region might sell for 39 in another. It's not just current exchange differences.

    The correction has gone in the opposite direction - the game price on regional pricing has gone up instead:
    [​IMG]

    It was R219 or thereabouts in South Africa for about 18 months, and then went up to R629 on September 9th of this year - only almost triple the price.

    You see the same trend in other weaker currencies in that list.

    As pointed out in earlier threads with similar complaints, this is not something the dev support team here have an influence on, nor is it under our direct control, I can only repeat to contact 505 games in matters concerning regional pricing.
