Assetto Corsa Competizione

Well that was a bit of a waste of an evening, that simracing.gp race was worse than a public.

Qualify 9th, a guy in front loses his wheels in front on the 3rd turn, slow to avoid going in to him, que nobody else bothering and i get mashed in the pack. On remounting i make it to the top of the mineshaft and get full punted from behind by somebody not bothering to brake.

End up trundling a lonely track for 25 minutes +3 laps down watching a chat box with nothing but arguing people banging in to each other.

A great race... said the 3 that got away and avoided the carnage. There was an active admin too:/
 
Reshade now works in VR and you can use CAS sharpening in ACC...

It's brilliant on the G2... there is a performance impact so I had to knock off just a little PD to maintain the same framerates but a well worthwhile trade off as even with the reduced resolution there is so much more detail and toggling the filter on/off is like someone removing a depth of field effect. Inside the car there's a small but noticeable benefit in clarity, mirrors and outside world becomes much more defined. For example at laguna seca as I sat in a sand pit having spun off (lol) toggling the filter off I'm sat on a light brown sludge, with it on I can see I'm sat on sand!

I also reduced the in game sharpening down to 200 btw.

I ended up using files from ACC forum user Jabbah as the standard files crashed the game https://www.assettocorsa.net/forum/...out-perfomance-drop.68964/page-3#post-1191203

Highly recommend a play, for me it is definitely a keeper.
 
Signed up for Race Department races on simracing.gp this week. Going to get booked into some of them soon. I'm 50 hours into ACC now but I'm still miles off decent times on the vast majority of the tracks! Got my Spa time under 2m22 today though which I'm well chuffed about

Joining those races on simracing.gp will definately help. Mainly because they all race good and fair so you wont get ******* off the track on lap 1. I cant make anything really this week but hoping to jump on more next week
 
I'm on Race Department and join in the Thursday night sprint races. When we get the numbers it's brilliant as everyone always has someone to race.

I've actually come on here to try and get a few of you guys to join. Sometimes we've had 10-20 people but last time out we had 3......

I've asked RD to push the start time back to 7:30-8pm BST instead of 7pm. 7pm is way too early if you have kids like me.

They usually post the events there ^ then you go and sign up on simracing.gp

Once you have joined premium just PM Bram Hengeveld and say you would like to join the club races on simracing.gp and he'll add you on the site.

The format is 15min practice 15min quali and 30min race

Hope to see some of you over there soon!

If you need any help just PM or even if you just want some tips I'm always happy to help.

A little bit later isn't an issue for me personally, a 60 minute stint isn't so bad. I had to give up last year though when they had the race kicking off at gone 9pm, racing for 60 minutes.
 
Yeah I loved the 2 races I've done so far with you boys from RD. I haven't really had a lot of time this week but I'm looking forward to doing more soon
 
Yeah, although i havent tried it yet but 7pm and 8pm on Nurburgring will be the first races ive done there.

I do like the format though and its popular with a few streamers on twitch, i think the 8pm Nurburgring race had an IRL GT4 driver, I reckon you would give him a run for his money Swanny :D
 
Sounds great. Let us know how you get on and good luck! Haha, I'd give it a good go

Didnt qualify for either race (i never do).

Finished 14th on the first race. I was due to finish 7th but span at the hairpin.

Second race I think i was maybe 8th in the end.


I have to say that the quality / ettiquete of racing was pretty bad compared to the RD ones. Quite a few incidents in both races in T1,2,3. Generally not up to the standard of RD. Having said that its was ok once it got going but a few heroes on the track thats for sure.
 
Ah that's a shame. I do find the RD races tend to have less T1 heroes, just a shame the numbers are low at the minute.

I'll still give this a go if I fancy a race when there isn't anything running at RD.
 
Yeah i still think its worth it as it does mix things up while we wait for Thursday. It was a bit of a shame as my first two RD races has set the standard. Who knows, maybe tonight was a blip and its usually better.
 
I doubt it if it's open lobby like the daily races on simgp. There was no barrier to entry so it was a total mix of all levels, no different than racing on a public 20SA server.

Racing with RD is a little different, you respect the guy in front.
