I got annoyed with never being able to find my personal vehicle as a mod for assetto corsa. I found a 4 door.. and it’s nice but it’s not my coupe. So I downloaded 3D sim ed, through trial and error I learned how to use it at a basic level. I tried to further my knowledge of the program but there are like literally no videos on YouTube or the internet. It’s like the program is prehistoric lol. So here are my questions.
1.) can I set my X,Y,Z axis adjustments to smaller increments??? Rather than the 10k gigantic movements, that have caused me I have to stop and type numbers in to get the exact result I want, which is more time consuming… I’d rather have the increments be similar to similar to the pitch increments. So I’d even take it at literally one increment. But I have yet to find a way to adjust it. I even went into explorer and looked for files that would allow me to adjust settings like that. I read their little info packet thing. Nothing. So I’d love to know if this impossible.
2.) Can I pick multiple objects instead of having to pick one, isolate it, save. Pick other isolate. Save then drop it into the other isolated objects page, and possibly have to synch up what ever it is manually cause it doesn’t always hone in.
( I would of asked why I was getting pink textures but as I started to learn it more I realized the program couldn’t find the file because I may have altered its path while trying to organize as my understanding of the program grows)
3. There are times where the program seems buggy. Like I sat there building an interior to swap into my car ( 4 door to 2 door) and i finally finished it, and I went to swap, and it dropped on to my main car page all disconnected and discombobulated. Like the cars frame is level…. the dash is upside down.
4.) selecting headlights to swap them onto a car that had an older model for head lights. So I actually had to sit there and import 30 parts and line them up my self to make head lamps for my car it took me hours, I mean HOURS. They came out pretty good though. But if I was able to highlight the entire headlight and just drop it … it would have took seconds..
so it’s done and now my issue is. The headlights do not work in assetto corsa. The little bulb from the old car works. But the entire LED strip/fixture. Does not. I went into the files for the car and added the light files/ext from the other car into the one I’m working on, but nothing.
4.) my wheels all the sudden do not role. I read on here that it could be a “ LUT “ issue… so I looked and it’s there … so that’s not the issue. Could changing the size of the rims cause the wheels to not role anymore ?
4.) can any one here direct me to a video where it shows how to use the touch screen on assetto ? Maybe customize it? I’d like to have YouTube access in car while in VR. Can I set up a path that allows me to control the touch screen from my wheel buttons ???? I’m sure there is away. I just haven’t learned it yet. Having my desk top some how mirrored on there Would he even better honestly. I just want my car to be exactly what I want, no sloppy garbage since I do plan on sharing my mod When it’s done. But it needs to be a 4-5 star mod. Perfect ( in my eyes at least ) idc how long it takes me. I’m ocd with this kind of stuff. I’ve pulled multiple all nighters working on this car. I also plan to eventually make a map. So if anyone can point me in the right direction for 3DSIMED.. it would be appreciated. I’d get 3ds max, but it’s overpriced. I have blender, but haven’t really got into it full on since I’m using 3dsimed.
So to sum it up . I. Want to Make my own instrument clusters work.
Make my head lights from a different car work,
And move the xyz axis in smaller increments.
