Basic RainFX config for Rio de Janeiro circuit by (Esprit3905)

Not sure if there is one out there already but this is once again very basic and can be improved upon I'm sure. Especially in additional streaming edge/point zones

Didn't go overboard with the streaming edges, especially as I miss them when I whizz past!

Anyway, I hope it's of use

Please Note
There is an existing config file in the extension/config/tracks/loaded folder add this to the bottom and save

Follow instructions in the original download overview page

How to create an extension folder and ext_config.ini file for each track
In case you ever move your tracks or just want to keep the files in one place

See screenshots for visual help

If you want to move/copy the track config from the loaded tracks folder you can;

1. Create an extension folder (all lowercase) in the track folder
2. Place or create an ext_config.ini file using Notepad or similar text editor
3. To create a save as *.ini file you need to switch the files from *.txt to *.* all files
4. Copy the rain FX text for your track and paste at the end of the existing or newly created ext_config.ini
5. Sometimes there will be other KN5 files that need to be in the extension folder for track lights etc.
6. Copy these from the yourPC:\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\assettocorsa\extension\config\tracks\loaded folder and paste in the tracks extesion folder
7. To stop AC from getting confused. Add the following to the beginning of the ext_config.ini file for each track;
