amazing mod tbh one of the only mods that have made my jaw drop over the years.

However, is there a way to map or press a buttom for random (not dynamic weather) while in game. So if i select random weather in CM, but then go to race it stays that way until either i go to the sol config app and click something else. or reboot the session.

IF we could have an option in the sol config app or a simple button that chooses a random weather for us be cool! Without the need to reboot session. Im not a fan of the dynamic plans as i get horrendous ffps drops when its changing weather in VR. So maybe every restart of a session randomise the static weather variations again I don't mean changing dynamic weather

anyway just a thought!

cheers again SOL!

If you want to have a random weather but isn’t dynamic in a race, so like static weather but randomises every session use this.


Then enable it in the sol weather app in car. This has a light drizzle but no extreme weather. Enuf to make it feel like its raining, but not enough to make track wet irl

paste into the random file already in D:\Steam\steamapps\common\assettocorsa\extension\weather-controllers\sol\weather_plans:

--[[ avialable weather types :
LightThunderstorm, Thunderstorm, HeavyThunderstorm
LightDrizzle, Drizzle, HeavyDrizzle
LightRain, Rain, HeavyRain
LightSnow, Snow, HeavySnow
LightSleet, Sleet, HeavySleet
Clear, FewClouds, ScatteredClouds, BrokenClouds, OvercastClouds
Fog, Mist, Smoke, Haze
Sand, Dust
Squalls, Tornado, Hurricane
Windy
Hail
]]

-- You can randomize things with the random() function

-- To randomize the weather type, use this format
-- random({"Type1", "Type4", "Type15", "Type28"})

-- To randomize a number, use this format to get a random number between 0 and 10
-- random(0, 10)


-- add a weather in the sequence by calling add_weather_slot()
__SOL_WEATHER_PLAN:add_weather_slot({
-- weather type
weather = random({"NoClouds", "Clear", "FewClouds", "ScatteredClouds", "Windy", "BrokenClouds", "OvercastClouds", "Fog", "Mist", "Haze", "LightDrizzle", "Drizzle"}),

-- hold this weather for n seconds
time_holding = 1000,

-- change to next weather in n seconds / if -1 -> no change
time_changing = -1,

-- temperatures
temperature_ambient = random(10.5, 29.5),
temperature_road = random(10, 30),

-- wind
wind_direction = random(0, 360),
wind_speed = random(2, 20),
})

__SOL_WEATHER_PLAN:add_weather_slot({

weather = random({"LightRain", "Rain", "HeavyRain"}),

-- hold the weather for random time between 60 and 120 seconds
time_holding = random(60,120),
time_changing = random(240,300),
temperature_ambient = random(10,17),
})

__SOL_WEATHER_PLAN:add_weather_slot({

weather = "OvercastClouds",

time_holding = random(120,240),
time_changing = random(60,180),

wind_speed = 15,
})

__SOL_WEATHER_PLAN:add_weather_slot({

weather = random({"LightDrizzle", "LightRain", "LightSleet"}),

time_holding = random(60,120),
time_changing = random(120,240),
temperature_ambient = random(10,20),
temperature_road = random(15,25),
wind_speed = random(5,15),
})
 
...try it yourself? How should we know?

In general AC runs better with CSP and SOL than Vanilla, depends on what special settings you activate in CSP.

Obviously I still don't have my computer but I'm considering to buy one with this GPU. Also obviously you can answer the question if you have this graphics card. Thanks anyway.
 
I still had a few months ago a GTX 1060 6GB with a I5 4670k CPU and 8 GB RAM .... and there was just an exception I had to do with CSP and SOL .... not activate the extraFX feature which was demanding a bit too much for a good fps result.

I will second what he said. I have that card and I cannot use ExtraFX unless I am driving alone. Strange thing is even if I deactivate every option in ExtraFX but still leave it turned on, I lose frame rates. I would have thought that deactivating every option would be the same as not having it on but I guess not.
 
Good idea to have tested all that ;)....
but finally without a perfect result ! :O_o:....

At first sight this should mean that once activated it does something even if nothing is turned on ?? .... the options being finally only settings ?
 
Hey is SOL configuration not available in content manager lite?
I've done as said in the install pdf but I can't find some options for troubleshooting in content manager lite
