Mod that seems to make night racing in AC possible? (Working headlights)

Is the visual deformation of the tires already available? What do we need to download and install?

 

Tire deformation is built into the headlight shader mod. (and he has found a way to make it work during replays somehow!)

 

x4fab is a magician confirmed.

 

Thank you @Michael Hornbuckle, I guess it will eventually be available on is own, as the headlight shader mod is not so great in the day light with the brake lights reflecting on the tarmac.

 

Lucky they dont burn Witches any more.

 

Also a new feature: different head light colors:

 

Does the mod do that automatically now or is there some manual workaround that has to be done?

 

You still need to have a config for every car you want to change the headlight color for. It's an easy process though. Once you are satisfied with your yellow tone, you just copy the ini file of the car multiple times and rename the copies to folder names of cars you also want to have those yellow headlights. That's pretty much it.

Edit: Oh and don't forget to do that in documents\assetto corsa\cfg\extension\cars instead of <assetto corsa dir>\extension\config\cars\. That way you'll keep the configs you made, even when the mod updates.

 

A switch in the CM UI between white and yellow headlights for specific cars/the whole grid might be worth a consideration. Headlights for (GT) race cars differ from series to series (livery to livery in AC) not the car.

 

Ah ok. I remember seeing on the 'to do' list that x4fab was going to implement that but I guess he changed his mind. Not sure if I feel like doing that for every car with yellow lights.

 

whaaat the ....cat???

Nightmod? Tire deformation? Lighting? Pffffff!!!...... Okay...... time to buy CM

absolut speechlees.....

 

Add seamless integration with Good Bad Weather Suite with suppot for 'wet' mode.

Nah, it's still planned. His to do list is pretty long though. Making all of the tyres and lights stuff work flawlessly, especially in replays and when playing online is top priority right now. It will all be implemented into CM, but ease of use isn't a very high priority right now because too much things are still changing on a regular basis.

 

Nice to know. I'll just wait till the built in implementation is completed.

 

As a joke I had said in the past that Content Manager felt to me like I was using AC2, as CM is allowing AC to be so much more, but with those latest developpement, working lights/night driving and tire visual deformation, I fell like we are now playing AC3.
I also have the feeling there is more to come not only from x4fab but other he might be inspiring with his findings.

 

G&B Weather suite is compatibile with A4S?

 

If x4fab can find a way to force night racing in MP and allow particle effects at wet track grip levels I will eat all hats!

I guess forcing night racing is impossible as you aren't going to get a mismatch error for wrong pp filter but I'm beginning to believe the impossible is possible in AC.

Maybe we will even see static racing line from track creators for dry track racing using surfaces like Goodwood wet.

 

No. It is (or will be in an improved way soon) compatible with the shader mod.

 

I do too look forward to MP forced night someway.
