Cars Test Plane 1.0

the_meco submitted a new resource:

Test Plane - Assetto Corsa Test Plane

I've had this rough mod for a while but I'm not planning on pushing it any further so I figured I would release it as it is.

Like I said it's pretty rough, it uses a free model from the internet as a place holder as it was more of a physics experiment. So as a result feel free to take any of the data, and modify it / redistribute in any way you want.

To get it working

Make sure AUTOFLIP_RECOVERY=0 in...

would it be possible to use the "Blurred rim" system to give the prop a nice look...? Or the brake disc shader, I found out that its not needed to be linked to a WHEEL_or SUSP_ Empty... just curious

and how do you create thrust in this?

It might be possible but I cant think how currently. The problem I see is the blurred rim would rotate around the suspension axis, so I don't think it would keep the correct pivot for the propeller. Maybe a brake disc shader might work. I was planning on making my own model but time is a bit limited so I've not put much work into polish, but I'm happy for anyone else to take the data and make something from it.

The thrust works by using negative drag, so once the engine has you above a certain speed on the ground negative drag kicks in and pulls you forward while in the air

Oooh, I'd like to have a flight over VIR and the Nordschleife with this..

Thanks for sharing !

Nice toy. Only downside for me is that my Fanatec V2 wheel rattles as hell even when in the air. It's like I am constantly driving on kerbs...takes the fun a bit out...
And I don't have external sound.

Am I doing something wrong ?
Every time I get off the track path itself game teleport me to box. Same as when I drive rally cars if I go a bit more off track - box. Is there some option to be turn on/off or something ?
Thanks for the plane btw, now I don't have to go to flight simulator to fly. =)

Make sure AUTOFLIP_RECOVERY=0 in assettocorsa/system/cfg/options.ini
Disable damage (I don't think it will gain enough speed with damage on)

It doesn't work.
It still returns me to the pits as soon as I go anywhere other than track itself...

Dude you have 6 FFB on the fly settings on the wheel.

"Dude", they are all set for use in different sims.
Not going to mess with the settings to fly a plane...

Btw: to be exact there are 5 settings.

Try FFB app in game, you can adjust overall FFB force to each individual car / plane

there, set value to 0%.

I cant fly this toy. i accelerate and goes ahead,( but i think is cuz the 1st gear not because the gas??) but not to the holy sky! i did what you guys said on options.ini and set no damage.

Gas is working but plane does not take off.

Other question... can be used on Nordschleife?

Thank you!

The glass I added on the model itself but the smoke you can have easy with CSP

Code:

[INCLUDE]
INCLUDE=common/conditions.ini

[PARTICLES_FX_EXHAUST_0]
RELATIVE_TO = pot
POSITION = 0.52, 1.51, -1.18    ;self explanatory
DIRECTION = 0,0.0,-1             ;self explanatory
COLOR = 0.7,0.8,0.9             ; RGB blend - 0,0,0 is black, 1,1,1 is white
LIFE = 1.2, 0.6                 ; how long particles last in the air before disappearing
SPEED = 12.5, 20.1                 ; how fast smoke particles fly from the exhaust
SPREAD = 0.01                ; initial spread of particles
STARTING_SIZE = 0.05            ; initial size of particles
SPAWN_OFFSET = 0.0            ; initial spawn point offset (length-wise)
INTENSITY = 0.5, 12.6            ; smoke intensity
TEMPERATURE_LAG = 1             ; engine heating up (1 to disable)
SPEED_THRESHOLD = 0.0, 0         ; speed at which the smoke disappears

how do you get to the options to turn off the barrier thing in the sky?? I don't know how and there are no you tube vids about it

Fantastic mod! Would it be possible to make a helicopter with six degrees of freedom also? Not asking if you can make it, but I'm just wondering if it's possible. It would be cool to close chase my friends down Shutoko and changing directions on a dime
