Tracks Riverside International Raceway

Yesterday I had a race with the AI at Riverside and to my surprise the AI had no big problems with the esses. The car was the 787, the difficulty was set to 98%, track grip at 100%.
It seems to really depend on the car. The Koenigsegg goesthrough it fine, but the McLaren f1 brake checked everybody each lap.
 
I wonder if anybody experienced fps drop with latest version ? Usual fps for me is 27-35. But 0.8 is 18-26 for me. Hotlap mode. Other than that, Track looks and feels so much better. I really like the improvements :)

My lowest in 0.7 is 46. 0.8 is 43 for my machine which is a pretty low end machine. Still nothing has any LOD setup which should gain some frames in the future. But My lowest frame rate is the same or a bit higher than my lowest on red bull ring so I decided to release as is. 0.9 and 1.0 should see higher frames I hope. Depends on how 3D grass goes.
 
I must have some weird hardware and graphical settings combination. Maybe. I have pretty low fps at RedBull Ring too. But still a lot higher, from 23 to 27 fps. Of course anything under 60fps is not a luxury, but it is possible to live with lower fps, till it drops under 24. I haven't downloaded RIR 0.7, but had 0.6 and it was smooth, as well as Bridgehampton is.

Ok, so I stopped writing this comment, and realized that I have bumped up my graphical settings, because I deffinitelly raised them sometime in this summer, because XJ13. Obviously there were much less details in RIR 0.6, so it didn't felt that much on fps.

So I set graphics back to normal/low settings. RedBull ring lowest fps increased from 23 to 30. Riverside lowest fps increased from 18 to 22, so it is almost there now. I guess those 3fps for you are not really noticeable (from 46 down to 43) as it is for me, from ~25 to 22. I should save up for better gear :D But if you'll win few fps in future it will be definitely a good thing. Obviously lol I think with LODS it will be achieved. Can't wait for 3D grass !

I wish SimTRAXXXXXX had your attitude, their conversions are always terrible on performance.

Go to the track folder and rename veh.kn5 and you will gain a ton of frames. That is the file with all the RVs.
 
Thanks for the tip, it cost some vibe, but performance is importantER :D Gained from 5 to 10 fps, so I can enjoy the track. Thank you, the track is a blast. I like that elevation change at T7, feels so much better to arrive at that curve now.

Spotted the static shadows issue again here on the back straight. Hopefully the solution is the same of the one on page 3.
 
I don't know what impresses me more, @LilSki, your Assetto Corsa track building skills or the fact that you knew about that USGS website and how to find exactly what you were looking for. I pulled up the photo that matches your Entity ID. You weren't exactly working with a highly detailed photo either....So double Bravo to you, good sir!! :thumbsup:

We're not going to be on some watch list now, are we? ;)

It isn't google earth but it's better than nothing. I have a few versions I made with different shading to bring out more details but it is mostly all there. Even many of the power poles are placed according to that image. This is a cool shot that was posted on the Riverside FB group and tried to match the angle as best I could. Without that aerial image none of this would have been possible.

Had a video card failure so I have been limping along with a non DX11 card so haven't been able to run AC at all. Thankfully Aphidgod had a spare GTX 670 he lent me to get me up and running as money is a little tight right now.

Anyway I have been playing around with grass for RIR for a while now. Wasn't getting anywhere and got fed up so I helped out with VIR a bit. Now I'm back playing with RIR and finally have something that is starting to look like what I envisioned.

Still rough in spots and will have more variety in the end but so far so good.
