Is this the next bic car coming to AC in mid-January?



Their latest cryptic facebook entry seems to indicate that it is the Scuderia Cameron Glickenhaus indeed.

The rumouristi predict confirmation of the licence for the Barcelona track later this day. 15:00 CET, to be precise.

Wowh, its official: AC will do Lamborghinis.

Apparently nine (!) cars are planned.





Next week they will announce the price and dates for DLC dreampack

More news of the day: in an interview with IGN Kunos said that they plan to integrate steam workshop support this spirng. And over the months of 2015, 50 new cars will find their way into AC, some licenses still need to be announced. Finally: it seems that Brands Hatch has gotten a license deal, too.

Barcelona. Zaandvoort. Brands Hatch.

Laserscanned.



On the downside, it seems that the second RUF has dropped out of at least the next DLC, if I understand the rumourmill correctly.

Great news!

I'd like to see some hot Fords in there than just supercar after supercar, or Lotus after Lotus.

Okay so what I really want is an RS200, followed by anything Cosworth tinkered with, apart from the Astra GTE.

Yes Marina last night was very addictive, just one more lap. Only issue is if you cut the final corner at all with anything like speed it throws you into oblivion.

Fords are coming.

Audis are coming. And an interview in Italian had Marco Massarutto confirming that there are full e-cars coming, too.

Oh, and 4RDs and AWDs are in development, too.

Two new mod tracks, built from scratch, have just been released, and I found them to be solid and being fun.

Norisring. Good job on scenery, it looks quite alive. AI, and two replay cameras included.

Eastern Creek. Hehe, what a teasing temptation to drive fast, it looks so harmless with its turns apparently swinging so softly and swaying to gently. And off the track you go once again - what you say now!? A real nice track layout. The scenery looks a bit too sober, but maybe the real place looks like that as well. AI and 1 trackside camera for replay included.


I say both tracks are worth to be considered for downloading. Currently only available from the track mod forum at Kunos (subscription necessary).

Did you try Miseluk?

Nice road circuit but only small cones blocking off some exits so it's a bit hard to judge the right direction until you know the track, which I still don't yet.

At one 90 degree left there are two roads and after removing the cones I went around the very left hand road, up a bridge, and up, and up, and up... Until eventually the road ran out and I tumbled into an abyss - with gravity on my side the '70s Jaguar Touring Car (fantastic car!) achieved 325 mph! Screenshot to follow.

Also, do you know where I can get my hands on a Mk.2 Escort? Skins are on RD's site but no actual car there.

Yes, I know Miseluk, its quite - different... Good one, yes. Reminds me a bit of the Berlin Stadtautobahn...

Finding an Escort for AC is easy. Not so easy is to decide whether it is a stolen rip or not.

The market for car mods for AC is unfortunately drowning in ripped content, not just other mods ripped, but even payware content.

Some rippers even are shameless enough to then demand money for their own rips.

Default Another Le Mans race.

I decided today to do a race with 12 Shelby 427 Competition cars at Le Mans while testing out the Natural PPF (which I think I prefer to the Photograph PPF) that I got over at Race Department.

And their off!

Coming into L' Arche Chicane.

In the Ford Chicane.

Number 6 has locked up!

A kaleidoscope of cobras between the Indianapolis and Arnage turns.

I must admit I have ended up with using no PPF again, and colours 90%. However I edited the value for the skybox in the ini files from 3.0 to 2.5.

Eastern Creek is slowly but surely tuned into what could become one of my favourite tracks in AC. New version is out, offering the usual improvements plus the former track plus a new second track layout, the Brabham Variation - some more tight turns and twists and slaloms to be done. It drives very good already, and the AI gets along on it very nicely.

And a new fun track already has seen its second release version coming out, the outside Germany probably not much known and relatively small Sachsenring. It is an authorized conversion, and it really is very entertaining to ride, due to the very steep climbs and dives, it really sets itself apart form most other tracks in regard to elevations. There are still some minor things to be hammered out, namely an invisible hole in the pitlane's centreline, but the AI can race already well on this track, and it looks very solid already. Definitely recommended! This could become another darling track of mine when it is finished.

Both tracks have trackside cameras for replays.

I must try the RUF on both. That could easily mean squeeking chaos.

Not so much the graffiti (which is nice), but the diversity of trees to be seen.

Lucca Ring 0.5 got released.

Edit:
Its indeed the big thing I expected it to become, this track easily ranks amongst the very best mod creations so far released. Do not miss it, its a must-have already now. Trackside cameras are still missing currently.

Kunos hint at new overcast light conditions coming, as well as improved shaders and new material textures.

And more demonstration of visual detail for the Nordschleife:
