Here is the log :-

 

[Jempy]

Could you be more precise when you say:

I am getting an error message Error :- No such interface supported - More Information in log.log.

Does this happen when you launch Content Manager ?
Or does it happen at another moment ? ... for example when trying to launch a private event ? or entering a server ?

Is this a content manager problem ? a AC problem or a Shader Light Patch problem ?
With more precisions it should maybe be easier to find the reason of your problem.

 

[Charles Soutar]

It happens when i press go to start a quick race.

 

[Jempy]

That's what I suspected ... so I'll have a better look on your log ( maybe someone else might do the same )

 

[Ken Tegrum]

I did not place CM in the root directory, and it functions fine. CM still needs steam to run.

 

[Jempy]

Please try with another car .... I think you have a problem with the Ginetta mod.

I launched the same race as yours and that's what you get ... that I don't:

ERROR: Material::getVar CANT FIND VAR normalLevel for shader g55_tyre
ERROR: Material::getVar CANT FIND VAR groundNormal for shader g55_tyre

Try with an original car so that we may be sure of this error....
If it's working with another car ..... we'll be sure that everything's fine for your install.

 

[Charles Soutar]

I really thought we were on to something there but I have just tried a ks Car and ks track but still got an error message.

It may be I will have to delete all cars and tracks bar ks ones to see if that would work.

 

[Jempy]

send now your new log ... we'll search something else.

 

[JHC]

So guys, i'll sleep a bit less dumb tonight !

To use properly CM don't run it as an admin x)

Thank you! This solve my problem with drag and drop!

Ok New Log

 

[Jempy]

You'd better check your game, Charles ..... there are missing or corrupted files in original cars

I didn't look at all but already found FMOD problems ( sounds ) for the Alfa Romeo GTA and Ford Escort MK1 ....

I guess there are maybe more problems in other cars.

Nothing can be done except by yourself for mod cars but for the original ones, check game files integrity in Steam.
I suppose you know how ? .... but, just in case you shouldn't know:
- Open Steam and your games list
- right-click Assetto Corsa and choose "Properties"
- tab "Local Files"
- click on "Check game files integrity" .... something like that anyway, my Steam is in french

Your game files will be checked .... and missing or corrupted files will be downloaded and reinstalled at the end of the process.

 

[Charles Soutar]

I have just reinstalled Assetto Corsa and validated all files and reinstalled CM and still have the same outcome. I will work away at this for a while but if I am getting nowhere with CM i guess I will just have to ditch it.

 

[Charles Soutar]

Tyvm for your assistance Jempy but I think I have a registry problem and I am now going down that route Thx

content manager is my best friend

 

[Cote Dazur]

Is there any way to run Content Manager without Steam? Just curious as my girlfriend enjoys AC on her computer, which is offline unless she's downloading a game or something like that, and I'd like her to have access to the features that CM provides too, without the need to constantly have her PC online.

Yes, CM works without issue without internet connection, no need for the pc to be online, except for updates off course, same as steam, works fine offline.

 

[Zombie Boy]

Yeah, I see what you did there...

 

[Miguel Batista]

No, it's "WTF? Hell yesss!"

You both got it wrong. Is it not "Isn't CM the stock Assetto Corsa launcher?"?

 

[Stephen O'Sullivan]

I installed CM a few months ago and AC began to stutter, so I hastily uninstalled it. However, it looked so useful that I tried it again last month and it has since worked flawlessly, apart from a problem with showrooms. There are lots of useful functions, such as loading the correct shifter/paddle option for a car. My favourite feature so far is saving grids of cars from the same era, class or power/weight ratio, which ensures close and interesting races. Now that CM is running smoothly, I want to install Sol as soon as the next Sol upgrade appears.

CM is daunting at first (so many options to choose from!) but it is definitely worth installing.

 

[Tobias Kantert]

How can i fix that ?
