Stereo submitted a new resource:

1959 Corvette C1 - the first American sportscar

Introduction
It happened again. I intended to build a quick mod similar to my E46 so I had a nice open top vintage car to cruise around some free roam circuits, and I ended up spending 3 weeks building it instead. Here is the result.

This is a 1959 Chevrolet Corvette, the first generation chassis commonly referred to as C1. The 1959 reprises the 1958 facelift, but with slightly less chrome trim. Like most generation Corvettes, this was about the fastest car you could buy on a...

Save that as skin.ini and add to skin folder, change colors if you prefer. This is one car where the white Sparcos definitely do not fit

Somehow the car's name is not displayed well ingame.

JSON read error: content/cars/oneweek_corvette_c1/ui/ui_car.json

This is the only car sofar that I had this "problem" with. (app is IS_PlayerList, but it simply looks for the "name" in ui_car.json)

Haven't tried it with wheel yet (keyboard is impossible ), will certainly do soon! What a beauty

Interesting, can you open the ui_car.json and delete the comma on line 10:
"usa",
-->
"usa"

Might not pass a strict json parser.

Fuel tank and flames seem to be a tad off the mark.

I thought the C1 was the two-headlight model (pre-'58), but no matter. Here's an idea, why not recreate one of the three 1960 Corvettes that Briggs Cunningham took to Le Mans (the first Corvettes to run in a 24-hour race). I owned the #2 car for a while. It was a beast!

Ok, what have I done this time?. The game reports an error on the way in, tells me to look at logs. In game, the car doesn't show up among the Chevrolets, there is an unknown car instead. I can't do anything with the unknown car, so therefor the errors file has no reference. If I should be looking elsewhere, it won't surprise anyone I'm stumped...

I know, that's little to go on... I've mentioned before, I'm getting thicker by the day.

You have clearly mucked up the installation in some way. Check the folder path, it should be like this: assettocorsa\content\cars\oneweek_corvette_c1 Also the driver files need to be installed for the car to work, but them not being installed doesn't cause the car to not show up

 

[Eck Simpson]

Maybe.. I should have mentioned before, I copied the contents folder over, as with every other mod. Checked folder structure, downloaded a second time (and after removing the oneweek_corvette_c1 folder) installed again.

Thanks for trying though.

Fuel tank and flames seem to be a tad off the mark.

Yeah I somehow entirely forgot the fuel tank. Both physics position and putting the filler cap on. Flames shouldn't matter cause it never does any. I don't want to update too soon in case other issues are found but it's corrected locally.

Too many changes (esp. all the trim removal)... I might make an optional removable hardtop though.

Imagine what Alfred Momo had to go through: just the changing to Indy-type wheels took weeks (new stub axles and new half shafts, machined from billet stock). The engines, tho, came straight from Zora Duntov, with '61 fuel injection plenums.

Ah yep, those pesky commas Hard Easy to miss, thanks.

Try the above quote, as sometimes AC (vanilla probably) doesn't like an extra comma either.

Indeed its vanilla (a complex and beautiful flavour). That cured it, thank you very much sir.

Great mod. But i must put shaders to the Kunos standards. And there is only one problem. As I keyboard player , it pulls very strongly to the right on a straight.

Stereo updated 1959 Corvette C1 with a new update entry:

fuel tank

I did move the fuel tank and clicked 'save' but evidently it just... didn't save. So another update to move the fuel tank.

Oh, I forgot to say... you should delete the car folder for the 1.0 update, as it requires some skin files to be removed.

Do you fix that car pulls very strongly to the right on a straight at this update?

I didn't make any changes in that regard.
