Is it Possible to Remove some of the alternate track layouts?

[ricki]

Some Assetto Corsa tracks have multiple layouts, most of which I never use. This makes the track list in menu very long. Is there a process I can follow to remove some layouts?
I tried deleting individual folders, but result is NOTHING from that track will load afterwards. I suspect a revision is also required in one or more of the track .ini files, or something like that. Hopefully, this isn't considered "editing" the track.
Any HELP?
Thanx

There is a way of doing it. It’s fairly simple. But I’m far from my PC so can’t talk you through it. I think you want to delete something in a UI folder (in the track folder) or something like that.

Have you tried using the alternative launcher, Content Manager? This shows each track's layout as tiny thumbnails and makes them selectable from a drop-down menu. It makes the track selection area much neater.

Maybe this could be helpfully https://www.racedepartment.com/threads/reducing-ingame-cars-and-tracks.175595/
Keep in your mind do not hide or remove cars/tracks that are swapped by JSGM or by the CM itself, because this can cause failures in starting the game.

Thanx fellas - something to start with. Yes David, I have CM installed, but confess I haven't used it enough to get familiar with its capabilities - I will explore this. I certainly do not want to upset track designers like yourself - I really admire and appreciate the talented effort you put in and share. I even found Bilsterberg yesterday!

To remove layouts delete the corresponding folder in the track UI folder, I have done that on several tracks. Works with standard AC, and I guess CM as well.

To remove layouts delete the corresponding folder in the track UI folder.....

I have done that, works for me with cars, but found after removing one layout, NONE of the layouts show up in selection menu - seems that track just does not load. I'd bet there is a simple update to make in another file.

Strange, works fine for me. I'm not using CM, might behave different.

Here is an example of Vålerbanan, where I have removed "bane1" and "chicane" layout
(I have only tested to remove extra layouts, not default one)

Oh - I see. Thank you for helping me here, & I was not using CM at the time either. I think I was deleting the "upper" layout folder at same level as ui folder. So, do you leave the "upper" folders in the game?
See my Riverside example (I think I would leave say long, and delete the other 3 "upper" ones with + beside, not realising there were other layout folders within the ui folder LOL):

I did it several times like Jens Roos said and the rest of the layouts worked as always

 

[Jens Roos]

Yes, delete the folders in UI folder that you don't want to be listed.

 

[ricki]

Thank you all so much for the help. I'll try working ther ui folder only.

Merry Christmas & a Happy New Year to you all.

That solved it! Thanks
