One question: why both cars, as well as the NASCAR Trucks, are shown in the list with a number instead of its proper name?

 

No idea tbh, I see the proper names instead of numbers

@Coutie is it somehow related to the way of publishing mods? I'm not using the tool and doing it via CMD as before

 

Those are the same number of the folders we can find in this folder:

Anyway, in the list of cars, they show perfect. Same with some tracks that are also shown as numbers in the Content section.

 

Great mod, Ferrari as well. There could be a problem for some people with lower end systems or with GPUs with lower VRAM. The dds files for the new skins including the region dds are 8K files which makes a big difference with VRAM usage. Normal 4k files are around 20 to 25mb, where as 8k files are around about 85mb which means a lot more VRAM will be used.

 

Lovely

 

I like the 963, though the interior is a bit too glossy, but thats just a small thing.

On the other hand, the FFB/tires feels grainy, I have tried adding smoothing, both in game and on my directdrive base, but cant level it out. It's quite visible on the FFB curves too when comparing with other similar cars. The spikes are more narrow and higher. I have of course lowered strength to -66 to not cap the FFB.

Else quite a good looking car.

 

I think the same, even newer cards with more vram will struggle in big grids with 25+ cars. Why 8k textures when 4k looks amazing. Great mod btw!

Just the 'new' liveries or all existing skins? Big help to middling systems. Thanks!

 

All of them

 

i notice that there are no ."Json" file for the 3 IMSA 2023 skins

regular (file not done not necessary) or forgotten file ?
rgds

 

It is meant to be like that

 

Hi @Nick9320, in the last update the engine was changed?, the turbo pressure is much higher based on telemetry.

 

Might be. Latest update for Ferrari and Porsche is basically replicating the BMW physics

 

I understood, I thought it had been chassis and aerodynamics, the engines would have remained the same, but the drivability improved. great job.
