Content Manager (Questions & Answers)

[Baydi]

So i tried to install the launcher for the eroc hotlap competition but it always says "MyDocuments is invalid". Is it not possible to install the eroc launcher with cm? Does anyone have the same problem?

Quick question about Content manager, now I've had CM for a long time but I stopped sim racing for a while and now I'm trying to get back into it, I recently changed my headset to a quest pro and I'm having to change a lot of settings on my racing games to get them to work with the pro, so I have started racing with AC again and it's great but one thing that's really bothering me atm is when I try and race through CM, so I've gone into the settings tab and setup my wheel (fanatec cls + load cell pedals) and saved the preset but when I go into the game via CM I start above the car, so I hit my button on the wheel that I have assigned to reset the camera in vr but all that does is run through the change camera settings, am I doing something wrong?

hi, i have a question about content manager. it wont let me save the car setups. i have searched for hours online and tried the 1.73 csp which didnt work and also made sure i dont have onedrive on my computer. i have also tried running content manager as "administrator" which also doesnt work, and finally i tried launching from assetto corsa icon and changing in game and that doesnt work. im not all that hopefull as im now pretty sure its a bug. but i thought i would put the word out to see if anyone has any clue how to sort this issue. p.s i am just trying to adjust brake bias

many thanks

Hello

I am having CM crashing on launch with no fault or error. However the fault log states an IniSetting 53 exception.

CM worked 3 or 4 times and then started doing this. It is annoying that it was actually working although giving an error on Content Manager General menu

I have tried to reinstall the game, verifying files twice, downloading CM again, reinstalling directx, giving permissions to access documents folder, etc etc. Nothing works.

Honestly, I do not play Assetto Corsa much because it takes always more time to start the game with mods than actual game-time.

Does anyone have an idea of what might be happening?

1. What exactly does the "use extended physics" do? Is this the one that brings rain physics? Does it do anything else? Is it stable? Is it useful?

2. Do people generally use the "more physically accurate gyro implementation"? I realise this probably is down to preference, but still - is this just an awkward experimental function, or is it actually useful?

I could of course experiment with these on my own to find my own preference, but honestly I'm not seasoned enough to really tell the difference here. So the questions are mostly out of pure curiousity.

solved by updating CSP.

I purchased the full version of Content Manager some time ago.
I recently noticed last time I used it, the release notes showed 0.8.2467.39678 as the latest. When I select 'about' from within the local installation, it showed 0.8.2393.39063 as the latest version.
Anybody else get that?

i plan on upgrading my pc soon, if i buy full version of content manager will it transfer to new pc or will i need to repurchase it?

 

[Pfalzdriver]

No, just save the mail with the key you'll receive after purchase.

Maybe install it manually from https://acstuff.ru/app/

 

[robert1985]

does anybody know if it is possible to change your steering sensitivity on the fly whilst in game? thanks

 

[zylerfromecudor]

Is there a way to turn off rain physics?

 

[Pfalzdriver]

Not if the car has forced physics. If a car doesnt have forced physics you can disable "Extended physics" in tab "Drive."

 

[Terry Rock]

Maybe install it manually from https://acstuff.ru/app/

Tried that already.
I downloaded the CM file, which is named 'latest.zip'.
It is older for some unknown reason, than the one I have installed.
Weird!

In Settings\Content Manager\General
Scroll to bottom and tick "Update to non-tested versions"
Should hiccup a little
Click on Check for updates
Should get popup with latest version, click on it
CM should close and open with latest version
