I'd like to add. I've just purchased the game just now because of this video. I've just completed my first lap on my new racing wheel and its amazing!!!
Why thank you very much Mike. I’m still trying to find my feet with how and what content To deliver, coupled with the fact I’ve had a year of oral surgery and plates in my mouth (in Budapest now for my last op), It’s not been the easiest of years. I’ve always liked helping others though so the show must go on. Thanks for the Sub it’s greatly appreciated and always spurs me on to do better and more. (“,)
Tomorrow i will receive my CSL Elite Wheel+Pedals and i will spend my evening getting all the mods running. Thanks for the work you put in the Video! Much appreciated.
This is the most detailled and versatile Assetto Corsa mod video on CZcams. The other videos are fine too, but this one is where I can get the links to the most essential mods. Great work. PS: The Fonsecker sound mod doesn't work anymore. Just a heads-up.
Hi Marvin Many many thanks for your kind words it really means a lot, but more importantly I’m happy you found this useful (“,) Have you tried the Fonsecker sound pack yourself ? As I know some are reporting it’s not working and others are saying it is working, I’ve just wiped my system so I’ll need to re install everything again this weekend to see/hear for myself.
@@SimRacingLife Hey, no problem. Yes, I've just tried it myself and when benchmarking afterwards none of the cars had any sound. Hopefully the developer will release a fix soon.
Nice upload SimRacing Life .. It's disappointing that Kunos Simulazioni never bothered to make AC like this out of the box for the community. It's also a real shame they never bothered to enable the Steam workshop for us too, that would have been perfect for modders.
Thank You To be fair to Kunos, i don't think graphics where a priority or a strong point at the time, and i believe they focused more on handling, tyre models and physics etc. also you've got to remember AC is 5 years old and graphics have come a long way still in that time. However saying that though, i still say to this day the car models are the best I've seen in terms of detail, which may of been why the environment graphics had to be toned down. Take any Codemasters racing game par say, fantastic looking environments to drive around but when you look at the car models you can count the polygons. I too was one of the collected preying for Steam integration, but now I'm not so sure, as maybe we only have Content Manager because of no Steam support ?
To be honest i don't see much hate and almost all comments on my videos are pleasant to read. I've only blocked 2 people since i started the channel and unfortunately one is another you tuber who attacked me publicly on social media, apart from that though all is great. Thanks for the nice words though, its really appreciated (",)
Apologies, i recently had oral surgery to rebuild my jaw and teeth following a bike accident which has left me with a plate in my mouth until the end of the year, so until then there is little i can do. but it pains me as i can hear it too and want to be able to deliver the best i can.
@@patrickbeart7091 its all good man, a few people have commented in the past, its just frustrating for me but it'll all be good before the end of summer (",)
I have a question. Why if I have the content manager and the sol when I select for exemple ''heavy rain'' or ''thunderstorm'' before starting the session, in the session the rain doesn't work?
Nice video! Have you tried these mods in vr? If so, how is the impact in performance? I have an i7 4770, rift s and 1080 ti. The vanilla assetto is wonderful in vr (with natural graphics mod only) , I wonder if all of this will not ruin my fps.
Yes I've tried this in VR and yes there is a performance hit but i can still safely run a race with 24 cars on the grid, but your milage may differ, my PC specs are in the video description. So i would just give it a go and then spend some time with the graphics options in Content Manager until your happy, Shaders light patch is the real big hitter here but then it really does add a lot more to AC. Hope that helps.
@@SimRacingLife thanks, I will try. Some improvements I will surely be able to do. You processor is much better than mine, but maybe the hard work is in the gpu and my cpu can still handle. Will see!
@@cparoli1111 Be sure to read everything through before installing, as Sol 1.4 has been released and there are instructions for VR and triple screen users that will help with performance as with the Custom Shaders Patch (renamed from shaders light patch). But most of all have fun (",)
thank you, just be aware that the shaders light patch and Wet mod can have quite a hit on your system so you may need to turn some graphics settings down a little or have a few less cars on the grid, but try it (",)
No you could hear my tongue hitting the plate that was in my mouth, i had surgery last year to rebuild my jaw and i had a metal plate in my mouth while it healed. Thanks for noticing (",)
Thank you so much for this video it is awesome! I just have one problem.. With all these mods installed my game looks 10x better but its still has that assetto corsa like cartoony look. It doesnt look as good as yours' car models and realism. I dont know why tho. All the mods are listed as enabled in my content manager but i was wondering if there was any reason that they wouldnt be working. Thanks!
Well i know that the windscreen and flames mod need a manual install, as does Sol now. you may want to look at your PP Filter for the game as some are totally over saturated and can make AC look somewhat cartoony. i believe i used the PP Filter from WetMod 2 on this video rather than the Sol Filter as recommended by the Sol author. So my advise is just play around with weather settings and PP filters to get a more believable look that you are happy with. Hope this helps in someway and thanks for stopping by (",)
OMG how did we miss Deems Awesome track packs out at the end, and thanks for spotting. Deems track packs now incorporate SOL v1.0 so with that in mind i would install it after Sol. To be honest the first 5 mods on the list can be installed in any order, but from the Shaders Light Patch it really does need to be in that order. Hope that helps.
@@SimRacingLife perfect, Just need to say a HUGE THANK YOU for this video... I have been tinkering for months and months trying to get my SIM setup just right, but to no avail! Until that is a watched your video and followed the links. Thank you x1,000,000 :)
Thx a lot for your video. I already had most of the mods but lacked some of them. How can I activate the wet track? I have Sol and deems seasonal installed but now I don't know how to properly wet the track using CM. Thanks for any help
Hi Jordi The wet mod only works on selected Kunos tracks and currently only 1 mod. You make the track wet by selecting the wet variant when you choose the track to drive. So in the case of Spa you will see two tracks are available to select, one the original and the other is the Wet Mod variant. Hope that helps ?
@@SimRacingLife Did I thank you enough before?? Done! On Occulus it looks amazing! Your video should be watching mandatory even for those who have no idea wat the heck is Assetto Corsa. THX!!
Latest version but you must have shaders light patch installed first and it needs a manual install, not via CM. The link below is the latest version, full install instructions are included on the page www.racedepartment.com/threads/sol.163844/

Hi, thanks a lot for the video. I have a question for you. I followed all your instructions and it works fine besides one thing. When I drive the Nordschleife, it always appears in the winter or frozen look/skin. Can you tell me how to solve this and get my summer version back? Greetings
Hi in content manager where you have single race screen you have weather and track options, i believe that could be one solution, the other is RBS comes with an Autumn Nords mod, you could disable that in the mods section of content manager. hope this helps some.
I've just installed shaders and sol last week but would like to do all the mods on your list, would I have to uninstall shaders and sol and start from the beginning again?
Yes most still work, however than has been some reports that the Sound pack may not be fully functioning. also just be aware that Sol and Shaders patch have seen many updates since this video so just read through the instructions on their pages carefully. Hope that helps.
Some mods do some only work with AC vanilla content, such as wet mod only works on a few AC tracks as does the Deems seasonal weather packs and RBS, but all other mods will work just fine for mod tracks. Hope that helps ?
I see that some are saying that but there is also a review from yesterday that said how much better it sounds, my only guess is that possibly people are not installing it correctly and are quick to shout out about it not working. I’m not in a position to test it today as I’m out of the country but I’ll be sure to investigate some more when I return.
Cheers for including my track packs. Deem
Oh No!! Thank you for making them. (",)
On a side note, very soft spoken, straight to the point. I thoroughly enjoyed listening to you explain the mods.
