Hi Everyone,
I have only recently joined the Sim Racing arena and have downloaded Assetto Corsa as it has the tracks that I require. I have also downloaded the Ford_Fiesta_XR2 AC cars mod as it is the closest match to my car that is available. That works fine.
I have been tinkering with the "data" files to make the mod a better match for my car (changing gear ratios and tyre sizes etc). I copied the original Ford_Fiest_XR2 file and renamed it before I made any mods. Each time I made a mod I loaded it in Assetto Corsa and checked the car still worked. All was well for a few days and I managed to alter several characteristics and they all worked. Today however, nothing works and I cannot even load the test car into AC. I can select the car from the "Select Car" menu and AC tries to load it but it just crashes and returns to the main "Drive" menu. I assumed it was a data entry error somewhere but have been unable to find anything. I have now deleted the entire folder from the Assetto Corsa > content > cars folder and reloaded it with an exact copy of the original Ford_Fiesta_XR2 file (renamed XR22). Even this does not load even though all the files are identical to the XR2 folder and that is how I created my revised car in the first place.
I have rebooted the pc several times, and reloaded AC through Steam several times but it simply will not load the mod and keeps crashing. Any ideas how I can create a revised version of the Ford Fiesta XR2 and get it to load into the game? Any help much appreciated.
Cheers in advance
