Vallée du Parc is a quiet ski resort located in Shawinigan, QC, Canada. I imagined the place to be invaded for a summer by a local race club with almost no budget ... using mainly old tractor tyres for protection. This track is based on a real road, but this is pure fiction.
This is a very short bumpy tricky track, very fun with small cars like the Ford escort RS1600, MX5 or the wonderful Skoda RS 130.
It has 20 pits layout and AI for both reverse and normal.
I rented some Wanco light generator to light the areas where in real life nobody wants light.
Cameras are working for the main layout, reverse has yet to be done.
I tried to do some 3d grass but it was not conclusive, Grass FX is way better and easier to do. I simply copied the example as it is. Everything else was custom made in rhino and grasshopper.
As it is my first track, i had to learn everything from scratch, It was quite hard. Since March, i started over
about a hundred times, but it was also very fun and so satisfying to solve one problem after another and see the track getting alive and better and better everytime I opened it in Assetto Corsa..
I want to thank everybody at assettocorsamods.net especially @luchian And @LilSki for all the tutorials they made for someone like me to be able to find answers when needed... I would'nt have been able to do it without them. And Kunos of course, for creating that opened minded gem that is AC.
This is a very personal project, I did it for myself, but maybe someone out there could enjoy it also so I want to share. VDP is very special to me and this was just an excuse to go there everyday, while beeing stuck in a 30m² parisian appartement.
There is still much to do, and redo on this track, but it is working and i think fun and flowy. Now i need some
external feedback from more experienced modder and motorhead. Every feedback will be welcome.
Thanks.
Hope you like it.
