You can have this issue with some new tracks. A trick would be to enable and disable the wet track effect.

There were changes in the way CSP managed light configurations. before, any section had a name with a number and they where unique, like:
[MATERIAL_ADJUSTMENT_1]
[MATERIAL_ADJUSTMENT_2]
so no section had to be duplicated.
I had built my parser for BLM Lights based on this, then CSP changed and you can now have many sections with the same name, like:
[MATERIAL_ADJUSTMENT_...]
[MATERIAL_ADJUSTMENT_...]
and that's not handled by my app, together with something else.
So I'd need a bit (a lot I think) of time to rethink the app and rebuild it.

I'm going to do it as soon as I have some free time from work.
Sorry

I have fixed the bug @2stains reported and also found a workaround to solve the duplicated and the [...] sections without having to rewrite the app.
It's being tested so I could soon release it.

Ciao

Fixes and improvements

First of all, sorry for being away so long and for having not updated the app after the CSP has changed the way configurations can be built.
Real life, and a work that takes me far from home much more than I'd like to, had almost made me give up on updating it. Not that I didn't want to.

Lately a few users asked me about the app and yesterday I finally took a look at it, thinking it would have been a mess changing the logic of the parser I had built in order to correctly load the new...

Thanks for the updates Blamer

I'm getting the below error with CSP 0.1.48, and none of the toggles in the overlay work; any idea what the problem is?

@Greg Pugliese this should fix your problem

Hi @Blamer

I just found that when the track lights config file is inside the track folder itself this App does not create a blm file and shows the text message "No lights have been set for this track" although the track lights do work fine and the App shows statistics for them. Is this by design or a bug? Thanks!

yep, known fact. the app doesn't manage configs inside the track folder (yet)
CSP does, that's why they work anyway.

if you wanted to use the app with one of those configs, name ext_config.ini as the [tracknamefolder].ini and place it in the tracks or loaded folder

I will soon add this functionality to the app

Ok. Thank you very much for your reply.

Ok. Thank you very much for your reply.

I added the ext_config.ini support, PM me if you (or who) want(s) to test it

Does wet work at Monza? Mine works on other tracks but Monza for example is unchanged.
Is there a way to make wet more reflective?

Thanks

 

[Blamer]

I've seen the config for monza and it already includes light sections for wet
you can try disabling them and enabling the wet effect to see if it's better for you

I suggest installing the Wet mod by A.Fracasso anyway if you already haven't

 

[jsnfarrell]

Deleted everything from the game, appdata files, etc. Started fresh but still no luck.
Attached are on/off for Monza vs Nur

 

[jsnfarrell]

Just attempted getting Monza to work wet on fresh files with just Content Manager, Shaders Patch, and BLM
- nothing.
Other tracks like Nur work fine.

I didnt want to use Wet Mod because that is limited tracks and the dev called it quits.
Yours covers all content which is idea.
