Modding teams switching to AC?

Bram Hengeveld · Dec 27, 2011

I saw on the facebook page of CTDP the following quote about Assetto Corsa:

Maybe CTDP's new platform?

Are there any other top quality modding teams that are considering AC as a future platform to create mods for?

Usually the mods coming from teams that do scratch build will be nice to have, VirtuaLM tracks can look amazing in AC as they already look much better than the rest in the current sims.

But a simple conversion from an old game will look terrible compared with the scratch build ones.

Indeed. Lets hope that with AC the GP4 conversion days are over.

I for one hope we get scratch build content and not the same GP4 conversion we have seen for the last 350 years.

Spa Francorchamps 2001 (GP4 conversion) is one the best conversions to netKar Pro with "good" graphics details compared to other GP4 conversions ... so i dont think the problem is on the GP4 conversion ...but in the quality of the conversion it self ...

I have no idea how to do a conversion but itt seems that if the converter invest some time on it and really want to do a nice job he can do it also from GP4 tracks ...

Of course that tracks made from scratch like Magione from MaiDireCamber or Imola and A1 Ring from RSR Team will be better quallity.

Was meant in sarcastic way as GP4 conversions are of course all illegal as nobody ever approved it

Hence the cry for more authentic originally created content from the modding community.

That will takes us for the discussion about what is legal or not ... dont think GP4 conversions are illegal since the developer house seems not to exist anymore ... and every communities (including RD) are using them ... but i dont know if this will be the right thread to discuss this ...

They were mentioning that the dev tools were incomplete and that ISI are dragging their feet.

I don't know if we are among "the top quality modding team" but if there is a way to play offline and if there is a way to mod without 3DSMax (I'm on Lightwave), why not.

I remeber having asked that via twitter a while ago. They said any 3d that can output fbx will do.

Also, I remeber a screenshot from some kind of editor-ish looking program which makes me feel very optimistic about AC

Im hoping that there is some way of still using BTB to build tracks for AC!
From what I've heard, rF2 is rather difficult to build long tracks for & for me, long tracks are where it's at for me....
Either way, Im looking forward to AC's release
