"The two tire compounds are labelled North and East because they would be running in different series; North is a 90s Formula specific radial with a stiffer sidewall, East is a 60s generally available car tire - in the 60s road cars would actually run on 165/55s, by the 90s no new cars were using such a small tire."
The real difference is that they’re made by two different people and one is Kunos style while the other is not.
No more calls, folks, we have a WINNER! Thanks, that was the problem. I have my favorite toy back! Thanks again!.Make sure you place the following three shader files from the archive in the system/shaders/win folder:
stPerPixelMultiMap_specular_meta.ini
stPerPixelMultiMap_specular_ps.fxo
stPerPixelMultiMap_specular_vs.fxo
If they're not there you will get "Race Cancelled". Hope this helps
You're welcome. Now go enjoy that wonderful beast!
I just want to say thank you to the people who've donated, I'm a little shy about expressing gratitude but I do appreciate it.
For a while I've been thinking about ways to encourage donations without putting anything behind a paywall, one model I kinda like is Kickstarter's "stretch goals". For example a book publisher might add a fancier cover (stamped in texture, foil highlights) if they get 20% past their original goal.
The thing is, I don't want there to be any pressure for people to donate larger and larger amounts of money, that's just not fair... but what do people think of something like:
After 25 people have donated, I'll add a second same era Formula Ford body (probably a Lotus 61 but I'll see what's close enough to the driving position/suspension).
After 50, I'll do a serious attempt at a next class upward version (probably Formula B as I've seen Mk14s adapted to that)
Like with "the price of a coffee" other modders use I'd probably have a minimum amount to count just so Paypal fees don't eat everything but that's the general concept.

Can I donate multiple times to hit that 50 number? Really would love to see that Formula B variant; that's the single vehicle class and era I want to see the most
I think that's a reasonable system, though!
I found the brake bias a little too rearward for my own liking, so I move that a couple notches forward. Hitting your rev matching is also key.
I love this car! Considering it's not particularly fast or difficult to drive, I find it hugely entertaining. I did a 5 lap race round a 26km circuit tonight against the AI (lapping in around 10mins 45), and I think I had a grin on my face the whole time. The model is beautiful to look at, the texture work is gorgeous and the physics feel very convincing. It is certainly one of personal favourite mods for AC, and I can't thank you enough for sharing it with us!
I've noticed that in several cars in AC lately.
Custom Shader Patch automatically puts that on any car pre-1975 ish. You can turn it off in the Car Instruments section of settings with "Use accurate tachometers". It is accurate to the tach in the car but yeah it's a bit annoying.
Thanks for the explanation! I didn't knew any cars pre-1975 had this kind of tachometer. Why is that?
Watch Saul Bass' Grand Prix opening sequence to the movie. Go to 3:39 and watch the tach sequence.
By the way, thanks for these explanations. I had not thought about it and figured were was a graphics issue somewhere.
