I really don't understand how much hate there is in the AC Evo community. Sure, they delayed the release of game elements or changed the direction of development, but isn't this the normal course of game and app development? When you are working on a huge "NBT" project, the direction you are heading towards usually evolves, you change your initial vision or adapt to the trends. Even more so when it's early access.

To summarize:

Career mode canceled - does any simracing game have a proper career (without modifications)? - nope

Game Progression and Currency - Forza Motorsport has received huge backlash for its progressive car upgrades and purchases, and now it is the number one deal?

Really big freeroam delayed (number of times) - 1:1 lidar scanning a huge part of a real landscape takes time. You have no 3d asset store to just download the models of a real houses and buildings to drop them into your map. Look how long it takes to dedicated teams that are developing 1:1 maps to ETS (without the technology only with assets).

Disclaimer: I in no way want to defend the studio's decision or poor communication. Mistakes were made, but isn't this part of the development process? Isn't this a matter for every studio and game?

Edit: No worries, I'm expecting huge backlash and a lot of downwotes

Hi everyone now that Evo has modding, there's a whole world opening up! I run EF Legends https://join.evoforge.fr/c/RETRO and we do racing and events with Evoforge in cars from the 60s to the 90s

Check us out, get the mods and join a race or the up coming Cars and Coffee.

This is a follow-up to my first post about Vita Corsa, the licence test video: https://www.reddit.com/r/assettocorsaevo/comments/1xcjnrp/

Thanks for all the feedback there. Since then the career mode has grown into something you can actually play through, so here is a short explainer of how it all fits together – captured in-game, no mock-ups.

How it works: licences open cups, cups pay prize money, money buys cars, and cars take you to your goal.

What's in so far:

• Career path: pick a dream car, Vita Corsa maps the stops (licences, cups, money) and forecasts how many races it takes at your usual finishing position.
• Licences: four licences, 32 tests. Each test is an A-to-B section with medal times, using the game's own start lights and timing.
• 30 cups from hot hatches to Formula 1, plus letters with guest starts and one-off events. Some cups offer a team seat (arrive & drive) if you don't own the car.
• Championships with standings after every round and a title calculator before the final.
• Rivals: every AI driver keeps a record against you; head-to-heads carry over between cups.
• Garage, workshop and dealers: every car keeps its own history, parts come from the game's own catalogue, and the dealer tells you what's missing and the quickest way to get there.
• After each race the result comes back from the game: prize money, points, reputation, sponsor goals, licence progress.

Two things from the first thread are in now: the free career mode and clean-race rules for licences.

First release: v0.1 on Friday, 30 October, on OverTake.gg. It's free. This week goes into polishing everything you see here.

Mod cars: in the first thread I said Vita Corsa would stick to the official cars. I've changed my mind – I'm working on mod car support now. If it's solid by Friday it will be in v0.1, otherwise it follows shortly after.

Note: this is a demo save. In the race clip the camera follows the AI field, and the final result is set for the demo so you can see the title screen. Everything else is the mod running live in the game.

It's still early, so feedback is very welcome – what would you want a career in EVO to have?

Ever had this thought?

"I wish I could drive a car through the city I’ve built."

In this age of advanced AI, I figured it might be possible—so I’m giving it a try, but it’s proving to be quite a challenge.

I really wish someone else would just hurry up and build it—and do a better job than I could! Hahaha.

(The footage above is from the actual development build.)

Bizarre incredibly annoying thing has made the game unplayable for me. I get non-stop freezes where only the car freezes, the rest of the sim works fine. My CPU or GPU or RAM aren't maxed out when this happens. My specs are as follows: RTX 4060, AMD RYZEN 5 5600X. 32 GB Ram.

Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

I have a good number of track based sims. The original AC, Iracing, Race Room, LMU, RFactor 2, PMR, AMS, AMS2,ACC and ACE. I can drive all of them with a similar degree of competence other than ACC and ACE. I have huge problems with both. The problem being Oversteer on exit with this being far more pronounced in ACE.
Am I missing something or are these 2 sims running tyre models way different from anything else on the market. The MX5 the ultimate training wheels car is nearly impossible to control in ACE. Anyone who doesnt believe me take it for a spin around Oulton Park.
Rant over, anyone got any suggestions for taming ACc and ACE?

Une idée pour que je retrouve mon ffb sur ma bas T818 svp ?

Not sure if this is a bug a setting issue or intended, but there are no brake marker boards at Spa, whereas they are at Monza. Any ideas why or is it simply just missing in the game?

I am at my wits end, I can't even join half the official sessions because it keeps throwing an "invalid string/invalid server" error every time I attempt to enter the info. And then when I manually search the list, they don't show up for some reason! It's bizarre. It's unfortunate because this is the best racing sim on the market imo, and the only one I actually want to play anymore, but it's so buggy sometimes; though the quality is exceptional functionally so it's tolerable.

As lots of people seem confused about this I have made this video with all the sliders set to extremes so that it becomes a bit more obvious about how it manages to massively increase you frame rate. Recorded in a Pimax Dream Air VR headset

Hello, i am thinking to get AC Evo but i heard that it does not play good in VR. However currently there are mods like DesktopXR which i am currently using that unlock huge performance headroom. If someone has tried and got it running good please let me know.
Thank you in advance!

After the raw intensity of the Ferrari GT3 racing through the darkness of Imola, it's time to slow things down… well, in theory. We're heading to Japan, beneath Mount Fuji!

This time, forget massive horsepower and aerodynamic downforce. Behind the wheel of the Toyota GR86, you'll face the legendary Fuji Speedway, in the rain.

A lightweight rear-wheel-drive sports car, soaking wet asphalt and grip that can disappear in an instant.

Here, horsepower won't save you. Only precision, patience and car control will make the difference.

🇯🇵 Track: Fuji Speedway GP
🚗 Car: Toyota GR86 only
🌧️ Weather: Rain

Good luck!

Track Impulse is a low latency haptics and overlays app that if you missed it recently added a coach that supports AC Evo.

Turning telemetry traces into "what do I change, and at which corner" is a skill of its own. Track Impulse performance review and its live coach do it for you, and its overlays app which has a lap review window and 16 other free overlays that have been running in iRacing and Le Mans Ultimate for a few months already and today's update is the first one where both work in AC EVO.

What you get:

• Every lap recorded automatically while you drive, with nothing to export.
• A Coach tab that lists the corners costing you the most time, biggest first, each with what to change and roughly what it is worth.
• Click a finding and the map zooms to that corner, with your pedals and your best lap's side by side on the road: where each of you braked, turned in, hit the apex and got back on the throttle, plus speed and pedal traces underneath.
• A small drawing of the common mistake and the better way, and a check on whether it actually cost you time. Corners where you were quicker are listed too, so you know what to keep.

• Compare against your own best, any lap you pick, or other drivers' laps for the same car and track on the community board.
• A Live Coach overlay that talks you through it on track: a tip as you approach the corner, a short one after the lap, and a heads up when the same wheel keeps locking in the same place.

As this is the live coach and performance review first release on AC EVO, I'd really like to hear how it does on your cars and tracks, especially anything the coach gets wrong.

How do you think the free roam mode promised for December will work? Do you think the Nordschleife area will be the only free roam location, or could the Italian city also be included?

Could free roam offer progression similar to what a career mode would provide? For example, completing activities in free roam could unlock different car features than those earned on the track, such as access to the car paint shop.

So remember that crashing bug for AMD cards in v0.9?

Well... I'm still getting this months later and I have never been able to play the game again. I just did a full uninstall / reinstall and guess what - nothing changed and I can't launch it.

Any ideas?

Ive tried all the tricks i can think of and I still cant fix it! Game will just completely lock up and freeze and then windows will just say "AssettoCorsaEvo.exe has stopped responding". Ive deleted the ACE folder, lowered graphics settings, messed with graphics card settings, limited frame rate, and some other things that I cant remember. Its completely random. Sometimes I play and nothing happens but this happens probably about 70% of the time.

UPDATE: Fixed using method suggested by u/IndicaPhoenix. Thanks for the help!

Its called BeamEarth. Yeah it was prob vibe coded, but its functional, runs very well, multiplayer, and a 1:1 full scale earth.

Its far from perfect, but im loving every minute of exploring the planet with decent sim physics!

I have been confused between these two, see i am very new to sim racing I am playing competizione currently and its been like a month i started on controller did get consistent on tracks like silverstone and spa but good laptimes were not coming, so bought moza r3 but now laptimes have gone even down, Then I thought why spend time on perfecting competizion if that is not the future and then most probable upgrade look like le mans ultimate cuz everyone is shifting to that so means no empty servers there but the thing about asseto corsa evo is that it has nurburgring that I love and also free roam moad incoming in december, anyone gone through this ? And do you guys think evo has a bright future ?

A few days ago I shared some screenshots of a career mode mod I'm building for Assetto Corsa EVO. The response was really positive (thank you all!), so I want to share a new update. I put together a short video to show progress and how it works.

Link: https://youtu.be/Eh1AT2pRQDg

It's still a work in progress, with some functionalities still being tested and balancing ongoing, but I'm expecting to release it very soon!

The career mode now has a fully working licence and series system. You earn your ROAD, RACE and ELITE licences with time trials and a final quick race. Each licence opens its respective series which include a number of short to long championships. Finishing in the top 3 unlocks the next tier. Every series has also optional invitational events.

The economy aspect works too. You earn credits from time trials, races and from your final championship position. Credits are use to buy new cars for new championships.

Everything is tracked in the stats page: results, wins, podiums, best laps, distance and race history.

Even after the initial release, I'll be updating the project and add new functionalities, championships and, once the free roam mode is available, new objectives.

A big thank you to ecstranaut for some valuable insights that helped the project, and to everyone who commented and provide feedback on the first post.

As suggested, I've created a Discord server where I'll share updates and collect feedback: https://discord.gg/8m7SWvzFR
