Assetto Corsa Competizione Hotfix Released

Paul Jeffrey · Nov 17, 2018

Assetto Corsa Competizione has been in receipt of a brand new hotfix update today - addressing some multiplayer issues amongst other items.

Following hot on the heels of the recent release three update, today's hotfix is a welcome reaction from Kunos as they look to address a number of issues that have arisen mainly around the new multiplayer functionality within the title.

Admitting that the first pass of multiplayer was expected to require more fine tuning before it becomes a genuinely playable option within the game, Kunos have reacted quickly to review the feedback and responses from community members and deployed a new hotfix earlier today. Although a positive step in the right direction, the current build of ACC online functionality still requires further work before it offers a truly smooth gaming experience.

Dear #ACCompetizione racers, we just deployed hotfix 0.3.1 containing a number of important fixes for the Multiplayer system, but also improvements for the Singleplayer experience as well as UI.

Important note for the server admins: The accServer.exe is updated, old servers won't show up in the server selection anymore. So please update the binaries.

No use cause FFB is sucked compare to AC,VR isn't performing!

Diogo Goetz Brand · Nov 17, 2018

There must be something wrong with some wheels. On my G27, FFB is lightyears ahead of AC1.

giga1tr · Nov 17, 2018

There are no problems with the Fanatec CSW 2.5. The FFB is like AC

Paulo Ribeiro · Nov 17, 2018

I'm really confused, with my G27 I am having a fantastic feed back from FFB.
More, with this update, the G27 FFB wheel is even better.
And I play AC1, RaceRoom, PCars2, RFactor2 and I will not mention older games.
So, ACC is heading right, at least for me.

Great FFB on T150, I can not speak for VR, but frame rates @ 2560x1080 continue to improve with each update on my 1050ti potato.

gustavofigueiredo · Nov 17, 2018

Great FFB on my T150 too. On AC it is great, but on ACC FFB feel is more natural, more real.

Wow I have a really old Microsoft force feedback wheel and it works great.

Philip Antonia · Nov 17, 2018

FFB seems good to me, but VR is not unfortunately

Underrated reply

Is the screenshot of the thread an actual camera in the game? In AC1 youve been able to choose them with F6 but I hadnt found an option for ACC yet or am I wrong?

tlsmikey · Nov 17, 2018

I do feel like VR has gotten more stability with the last release (I've seen a small improvement in performance), but the blurry visuals are still there and that's the biggest issue at the moment. Even supersampling doesn't clear that up. It's the temporal aliasing they need to work on.

FFB is great though.

Nano10 · Nov 17, 2018

Diogo Brand and Paulo Ribeiro.

I have the steering wheel g27 but I do not achieve the ideal setting

Can you share your setting?

Are you using the logitch profile? Values?

Thanks

E304LIFE · Nov 17, 2018

G27 and feeling fine here...I stayed with the same profiler settings as AC.

Wonder if the boys at Kunos are stressing out yet lol. Thanks for the hofix Kunos, and looking forward to more updates and cars!

ChevyGuy566 · Nov 17, 2018

ACC got me to actually enjoy driving Paul Ricard so it must be doing something right!

Oscurr · Nov 18, 2018

How did they get the screenshot from the thumbnail ? Are cockpit cams already in the game ?

Alex Townsend · Nov 18, 2018

@samprince053 really? Disagreeing with all users posts that are finding FFB ok with their wheel setups?
How can you know that these setups don't work?
Troll much?

dreamer al · Nov 18, 2018

I have attempted to play Game Mode "Sprint Race Weekend". It freezes and then crashes. This happened in Vers 0.3 and Vers 0.3.1 hotfix . I uninstalled and reinstalled after this latest hotfix. Same outcome; "Fatal Crash". I am only highlighting this so it can be fixed. I am quite comfortable that this is "Early Release".

Montag_RSR · Nov 18, 2018

@dreamer al Do not hesitate to point out issues on the official forum so they can see

thevoidone · Nov 18, 2018

They tested this game in VR? I know it is early access but this is so far from iRacing VR experience that I think they will never get close to it. I cant read menus text when it opens in game window. Its basic, right? Now we have a height, fov... menu. Nice? Would be if I could read it. The graphics in VR... dude, looks like not one single dev spent one day of work sharpening it, looks like they simple make it no VR and lets the engine do this poor work. There are online manuals were we can broke our backs just to try VR looks like less worst that it is by default and I ask myself: why dont a dev do this job to us one single time on kunos studio? I am realy sad looking for what is comming in the future to VR players and regretful for buying the full early access. Looks like iRacing is safe to charge his expensive prices for one more year. I hope Reiza Studios aim at VR in his next game.
