hi, just found this

 

[Brandydo]

Thanks for that report. The Lidar was cut to the track edges but looks like there was some overlap. The plan is to scratch make the terrain on the outside of the track similar to the inner, for 1.0. Simply ran out of time and wanted to get this out there in advance of the 2022 race weekend.

Walking the track today, there are a lot of changes from 2021. 1.0 will look a bit different

Pit area is not defined as pit area so collisions are on and you can go as fast as you want.

 

[Mascot]

Nice little track - thanks!
Some trees have horizontal pixel artefacts at the top.
One grandstand has an alpha issue on the railings at the top which causes holographic eyefudging in VR.

 

[Darin Stevens]

Overall, very nice. I did have to use CM to update the map and outline in order for the map to display in game . Also probably better to name the track something like "Trois-Rivières - gp3r_0.8" instead of just "gp3r_0.8" so that it's easier to find alphabetically in the CM track list.

Agree with what Darin and Jonah pointed out.

The pit area should be defined as a new surface in order to act as proper pits (so with speed limit and allowing players to box during races)

I also agree that the track should be named Trois-Rivières in the ui.json file for ease finding the track

Finally, the AI racing line needs some work from what I've been able to test. The sidelines are great, it's simply a matter of making a faster racing line

What a gem of a track, can't wait to see it develop

Has anyone contacted you for a conversion to rFactor 2? And, if no one did, would you be open to authorise such conversion (duly credited, of course)?

 

[Brandydo]

Thanks for the input, everyone. Issues will be addressed in a future update.

Our main goal is to get 1.0 finished for AC first, at which point Martin and I will discuss potential conversions. There is a few different AC versions of the track out which makes it confusing, so for any future ports I'd like it as a singular release. We'll definitely be in touch.

Perfectly understandable to first reach 1.0, but I was nonetheless curious if there were already any cooperations ongoing with some of the heavy-hitters in the rF2 scene (such as Digga).

Brilliant fun

All AC tracks should be like this so RF2 drivers stop laughing at AC pit stops

all tracks can have pit speed limiter turned off and collisions on, if you play online..

Tell me more, how to do this? Is it in ACSM somewhere?

yes, under Custom shader patch, you can enable a lot of things. Look at the options here: https://github.com/ac-custom-shaders-patch/acc-extension-config/wiki/Misc-–-Server-extra-options

Interesting, thanks!

Merci pour le circuit. Il est maintenant officiel . Très beau travail.

To anyone who is at the track this weekend, you can preview the latest update before its' release at the Miso O Jeu tent in the paddock near the Arena, in conjunction with Advanced Simracing.
