Shaders Patch - Dynamic Lights

x4fab

JMartinni thank you for test! I think I’ll tune down lights from other cars (and for player car in replay mode so they’d look the same), this way it would also solve a lot of performance issues as well.

JMartinni

Correction - lights do work in replays but they're stuck in external cameras (as mentioned above). One observation about that: lights continue to follow the cars when moving the camera in free cam mode (F7) but get stuck/stop updating as soon as you stop moving the camera.

Hey, my lights don't work properly in replay and free cam. The lights are getting stuck on the ground and do not follow the car. On version 0.1.5 they were working fine, but on v0.1.7 they aren't working and are getting stuck on the ground. Is this a common bug or is it just happening to me? I would really like to get the lights to work properly again as I would be able to make more videos using them. Much appreciated for the help, thanks!

JMartinni

Here's a video that showcases what I was mentioning about losing reflections/exteriors being too bright - it seems the shader changes have some negative impact on how the textures/materials look when shined on directly (colours become brighter, texture compression is visible). Not sure why this is only sometimes the case while other times (first three videos above for example) it appears to work mostly fine. Also the stuck lights in external cameras.

~~Could somebody with that replays bug please contact me so I could send a bunch of builds trying to find the solution? Unfortunately I still can’t reproduce this bug here.~~

UPD: I think I found some problem with replays and outside camera, maybe this is the issue… But for me, light disappears, rather that gets stuck. Still, maybe it’s the same bug.

x4fab Okay great. I hope this bug could be fixed soon.

x4fab If you still want help testing, I should be around for a bit. Sent you a request on Skype

Hi! First of all, Awesome work, you are making Assetto Corsa 1000 times better!
I tried the night shader mod and i saw that it works only on windowed Assetto Corsa. If i try to run the game in fullscreen, it immediately crash. What is the problem?

x4fab

Darxtreme thanks! It might be a Reshade-related issue. What graphic card do you use?
m3gt2 thank you! What is the problem with Reshade in VR? Latest version, hopefully, should work.
Anti-Core I think latest version should work, or try v0.1.4 and tell me if it’ll work for you or not.

m3gt2

wow! amazing - finally night Nords is possible!
Could someone explain how to launch it in VR without reshade? i see someone has done that!

Anti-Core

Will it be possible to make it work with VR properly?

Hi, i play with a laptop with Nvidia 940MX

I've just tried the new update and it seems the replay and F7 cam bug is still there for me. I don't know why this is happening as I said before it worked with v0.1.5 but not now. Even if I revert back to 0.1.5 the headlights still stay focused on the ground on the replay cam. It's a real shame because I love this mod, I think it is amazing, but it is still pretty early in development though and bugs like this will occur. I have installed the mod correctly as it worked before but when I updated it to 0.1.7 using CM, this bug occured.

paddythegamer

paddythegamer Also may I add that when I installed the mod manually (without CM) it was working fine w/o bugs, but when I installed it using CM this bug occurred. Like I said even if I try to revert it back to the older version (even reverting back manually) the bug still occurs.

mmtes хм, никаких программ, выводящих FPS, не запущено, например? чего-нибудь, что могло бы как-то перехватывать directX в AC?

paddythegamer that sure is very interesting, could you please contact me directly so I could send you some builds or maybe restore shaders and stuff to their original state?

paddythegamer

x4fab Yeah sure, I'll send a request on Discord.

Hi @x4fab, I just tested 0.1.8 and the framerate drops to ~10fps when loading into the game with one car. When reverting to 0.1.7 performance is normal again.

x4fab

JMartinni is 0.1.9 any better? Please, remove previous files and mod at all first. Again, I can’t reproduce it.

Kavoriken great, thank you, glad to hear!

DonutThing thank you!

Qejio none of checks above help? Do you see Reshade message during loading?

MartijnKorremans glad you like it! Can you please restore original shaders? I’m staring to think the way CM handles generic mods is not exactly perfect, maybe backups got kind of damaged?

Kavoriken

@x4fab Just a heads up. Replay didn't work for me with 0.1.7, had to revert to 0.1.6 to get it to work. Works perfectly fine in 0.1.8 now.

DonutThing

Your mod has impacted the entire AC modding community. I'm looking forward to possible optimizations in the future updates.

Fantastic work, @x4fab!

Qejio

Installed it through CM and doesn't seem to work at all
