Misc good and bad weather SUITE 2.5.2

[Alistair McKinley]

Also just a little preview about weather selection:
There are 3 modes in the first release.
1. Weather type, and parameters like temperature are taken from CM (real weather or menu parameter)
2. Sequence of changing weather in game. Editable in a lua-file. Weather type, change times and parameters are definable in weather slots.
3. Custom weather. A single weather can be built from special parameter. This is forced over previous settings. Very usable for Screenshot sessions.
Mode 2 and 3 can be edited live, while AC is running..

There are no words or emoticons to show my gratitude and deep respect for your work. It's simply amazing what you (and others as well) have achieved. Thank you so much!
I'm very unpatiently looking forward to SOL's release.

Hello Peter,
May we understand ( as I'm guessing the possibility between the lines ) that not only the weather might be changing ... but also temperatures and .... grip ? as a change in weather ( sunny - rainy or day-night ) also means ... grip differences ?
In the same run, I mean.

Only a guess or a future real feature ?

NB: I hesitated for a while already to say it as it might be badly understood ... but that's not the meaning !:
Why the name SOL .....?
For "O SOLe mio" ? .... ..... ( please don't consider this as the other well known US version ! )

Yes. there are many parameter for a weatherslot -like temperature, wind, later grip. Everything is changing with the next weather.

Sol stands for Sun / is the god of sun in many mythologies. Every thing on earth belongs to the sun - now with weatherFX and Sol, also every thing will change with the sun. And i wanted to make a clean cut with the gbw stuff.

sensational mod as per usual for you sir. I have a question though. I've installed the suite plus the wet mod and dynamic lights mod that you linked in the readme file. At night time my fps absolutely plummets with a full grid to about 30fps. I have a very powerful PC and wasn't expecting this kind of frame tank even though I play totally maxed out at 1440p. During day time my fps is locked at 144fps with everything setting maxed on a full grid, yet the night time performance is terrible. Is that the norm?

No. Absolutely not. Did you use the last Shader patch preview? You can try to use older versions. As I read some people have problems since preview 23. So preview 22 is worth a try.

Also, are you using the CPU and GPU optimisations in CM? They made a big difference to my frame rates at night. I'm running a 2080ti and 8700k but had framerate issues at night, but they really help.

Hi there Peter.

I installed these mods/patches.
Assetto Corsa Wet Mod by Alberto Fracasso
Shaders Patch - Dynamic Lights by x4fab (installed version v0.1.24 which is the latest, and installed via CM)

Now I know that's not normal performance, I'll dig a little deeper.

Also, quick edit. Here is what's showing inside my content manager mods section. Is there a conflict of mods here that's possibly causing the poor fps at night?

Thank you for replying.

I'm not entirely sure, if Content Manager doesn't enable them as default then possibly not. I'll check later, where would I find them?

I've a very similar rig as yours.

Thanks again.

Is this only on 1 track or with multiple tracks? can you post your "drive" screen. also it could be some car is causing this.

No, i may just do a re install.

Only played the one circuit last night with the same grid as it was rather late. When I get home later I'll take a screenshot of my drive page.

Thanks

here you go. Now tested on various tracks, same 40 or 50fps at night when its locked 144fps in daytime.

Also, this doesn't look right to me, this is the loading screen after clicking go to race

 

[Mr Antony Myatt]

thanks for that.

This is mine, seems I have a different menu, I seem to be missing a lot of options. Could that be down to the version? I downloaded the latest which was v0.1.24

Yeah, I'm on v0.1.25-preview32

 

[Mr Antony Myatt]

Yeah, I'm on v0.1.25-preview32

thank you, I'll try that one and see what happens. Also, could you confirm the above screenshot of the loading screen, it's seems like it's missing all the detail, not sure if its meant to be like that or not. Is yours?
