TUTORIAL
By @Kuya Julz

INTRO
Thanks to the brilliant creators of CSP, the game is finally playable for fellow padders. I am relatively new to the game myself, and almost gave up until coming across Console FX by the amazing modder Geraint Thomas. The fantastic feel of his script inspired me to mod it further, giving birth to Arcade FX. However, I have 0 knowledge in coding, let alone LUA, so the journey has been a struggle.

Ultimately, my version aims to offer an arcady feel, making driving intuitive and video-game-like while still being able to enjoy the great physics of AC. In comparison to Console FX, my Grip version has a different sense of control, less auto counter-steer, and adapts to each type of drivetrain, with dozens of new features I spent a lot of time implementing.

However, if you are looking for the challenge of realism or a very light assist , this is NOT for you. For those who've transitioned to AC from years of arcade racing, this may be your jam.


HOW TO PLAY
1. Recommended to play with Kirby Chase Cam https://www.racedepartment.com/threads/kirbycam-chaser-cam-for-custom-shaders-patch.209427/ as steering wheel movement is not directly representative of input due to strong assist.
2. Stick-roll: Steer by pushing the stick forward the whole time, kinda rolling it against the sides.
3. If you insist on having the wheel visible, it is recommended to set rotation somewhere between 120 - 180 degrees.


SWITCH MODES
D-pad "down" button switches between grip mode and drift mode.



INSTALL
1. Drag'n drop
the "extension" folder in the zip file into your AC root directory (usually steam - steamapps - common - assettocorsa)
2. Activate FX: Content Manager settings -> Custom Shader Patch Tab -> Gamepad FX (among the long list on the left) -> Tick "Active" and select from "Script Used"

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Special thanks to CHENG @yihsin and @tilbakestaend for being extremely helpful in the process and also doing some of the demo driving. Big shout out to @Geraint Thomas for Console FX and @Akeyroid7 for the fantastic base script of it and to all the testers who have pointed me toward the right direction.

While I want this mod to work, it simply doesn't detect it within CSP. Need help ASAP!
GRIP is not good for grip because i cant take corner as fast as when i dont have any help, so i only use the Akanai7 mod
The only thing that would make this the ideal gamepad assist is if steering didn't lock while braking. That way tightening corners while drifting would be a lot easier.

I hope someday this will be fixed. I really do love this, though.
I give 5 stars because this mod looks excellent, but gamepad fx does not appear in CSP :/ I tried 10 times, I'm desperate, any idea?
I really liked it, it's going to become my main gamepad fx from now on, but I'm missing the handbrake with autoclutch. I'm using it mostly for drifting, and coming from other gamepadfx controllers that had this function, I would like to know if there's a way to enable this by editing something in the files.
You can't switch modes by pressing any button.
Update Gamepad for CSP 1.80 Prev Thanks!

What do you mean? New csp can't read it or something?
Thank you HVITKRIST for posting my Tutorial, I've been using this mostly in my content. i would say i can drift well and cut up smoothly ! keep up the good work.
I've spent some good hours using ConsoleFX by Geraint Thomas. Being a sole gamepad and grip player, after testing your version for a bit it blew me away.

With consoleFX I was pretty much abusing the car's limits and the result was a severe understeer. It almost felt like cheating on some races as the autocorrection has prevented me from spinning out several times. You are pretty much on the path to nailing the experience for AC gamepad users.

IMO, there is still some room for improvement, like small refinements to the autocorrection system and the clutch could use the blip throttle feature by default. But all in all, this an outstanding mod!
really good, although, It would be nice to be able turn your clutch feature completely off bc I prefer the normal.

data.gearUp = upShift
data.gearDown = downShift
data.clutch = clutch
delete these lines, search in notepad
I really like this assist, but I'm trying to drift on FD tracks and it's a bit difficult for me because sometimes it's a little faster than the a7 and it's difficult to have that precision, if you could refine the script a little more it would be great, same excellent work
THANK YOU !
One of the greatest controller scripts out there. I hope a wider audience will discover it soon. I would recommend everyone currently using A7-assist to at least try this out!
First I've been driving around with the script's from Geraint Thomas and Akeyroid7. Now we have HVITKRIST's Arcade FX,
very well done how you put the once that went before you together in one script. Beautiful community effort here ;)

I have only used the GRIP FX for now. You fixed the fish-tailing effect pretty much completely, and overall i just like it a lot. I don't have any complains!

Hope to see more 5-star reviews,
this absolutely deserve it!
awesome script
Unexpectedly smooth, great to use for casual runs in the touge when I tried the grip version. Haven't tried the drift version yet but I'll give an update when I do.
