I wish i could figure out how to pay for traffic....
Great map
I've never reviewed anything here on RaceDepartment, or any other site for that matter. I felt that this map needed a review. I bought the premium off of your website and damn was it worth it. This map makes any car amazing to drive, drift, race, or cruise. The detail, textures, small backroads, turnouts, and views are amazing. I got the paid rain mods and they're tons of fun with this map. The map has the perfect balance of small windy roads, 2-4 lane roads/highways, and even neighborhood roads. I've always wanted to visit California. This satisfies that urge. Even though I don't have my license or permit, I can still drive around California with a Ferrari in Assetto. For anyone that's on the fence about maybe buying the premium bundle, It's 100% worth the money.

After seeing videos online, I felt like this deserved my support. I purchased the Platinum VIP package (and you should, too) but every time I try to launch it in single player, I get the error message: "AC ran into critical error: CANNOT HAVE 0 CARS IN RACE.IN!"

I assume I did something incorrectly, but I can't find anything about this error anywhere. Can anybody help?
Fantastic course, tons of fun!
Completely awesome
Very good track however i am having issues using any of the layouts labelled as 'VIP', whenever i try to load into one of these a crash prompt comes up saying 'CANNOT HAVE 0 CARS IN RACE.INI'. Not sure if i need to pay for these or if they only work in servers or something, I've tried a few things but with no success.
My game crashes every single time i try to run this map.
can anybody help me ?
one of the best tracks out there. top 3 for sure!

Cheers!

Ever since i became disabled, i had to sell my beloved Beetle. Last year i bought myself a gaming PC as a present, just to recreate certain races from the 80's and onwards, with the accurate liveries on the cars in Assetto Corsa. My experience with PC's are close to zero but downloading and setting up mods and things like CSP and Sol were pretty straightforward.
Then i ran into a standard Beetle mod, downloaded it immediately. Yesterday i accidentally stumbled upon your track, and since that's one of the places i've always wanted to visit, i downloaded and installed it. Took my Beetle for a ride in LA Canyons and i can hardly describe the feeling i got from the virtual experience! It's amazing!
Now for the naughty part; since i also was trying to figure out how to stream with OBS, and if my PC could handle that, i took the first drive live on YouTube in my enthusiasm before i read the "Please note" disclaimer.
So if you would grant me the permission, i'd very much appreciate it. If you want me to take it down, i respect that and will do so (monetization is disabled).
To add another compliment; one of my subscribers, who lives in that area, wrote a great comment on how realistic it all looks and recognised some parts!
I'll go check out the Platinum version and try to figure out how to add some traffic :)
Conclusion: A must have! Download/install it, take your favourite car, put some music on and just drive!

Thanks a lot for your awesome review dude! Sorry you had to sell your Beetle, but it makes me happy to hear my (and Benobro's) work helped you get back in a virtual Beetle for an amazing experience. As a modder, hearing that is about as good as it gets!

Sorry for the delay, the last few years have been.... (expletive)
Stream all you want to, and if you enable monetization, go for it.

Thanks again, and I'm really happy to give you some sense of freedom on the open road. Cheers, and take care man!
Excellent work ! It's amazing to drive on these roads.

After I moved to the LA area 20+ years ago, I bought myself a new 2004 Mini Cooper S. This car was heavily modified to run in these very canyons..
You have done an amazing job of capturing the fun of driving through those hills.

I have not been up into this area for years due to high fuel costs and forest fires...

Thank you for letting me go there again..

IT IS FANTASTIC!

Cheers!

Muchas gracias
Awesome work... I used to ride these these canyons every weekend until I had kids. My favorite piece (in real life) is the AFH, and it's recreated wonderfully here - Love being able to rip these roads from my couch since I rarely have a few hours free for the real thing anymore!

Thanks man, really glad you can run AFH, and in a way you couldn't sensibly do in real life. It is also great to hear about the level of re-creation achieved. Cheers!
Eccelente

Thanks, glad you're liking it!
This is amazing, love it so far and was curious about the VIP section stuff, would love to have traffic, if anyone can help me, I would greatly appreciate it! Cheers!

Thanks :)

If you just want traffic...
Jump on the "Cruisin USA" online servers and race other people thru traffic (I think you just need CSP v0.177... Traffic lines are server side.. and they behave awesomely)

There is some more detail about the VIP above... Click on the "FAQ" spolier. But if you just want traffic, jump on the servers!

Drive safely ;)
Man!! Me and my son just downloaded this and love these roads great job!! Might want to get the VIP for 2 way traffic thanks for creating this!

Thanks that's cool to know!

If you just want traffic, and you both have your own rigs...
Jump on the "Cruisin USA" online servers and race each other thru traffic (I think you just need CSP v0.177... Traffic lines are server side.. and they behave awesomely)

Have fun :)
