    Update on Private Lobbies for PS4
    http://www.assettocorsa.net/forum/index.php?threads/community-update-private-lobbies.43805/
    Hi everyone,

    We wanted to give you guys a quick update on our next major update, which contains Private Lobbies. Kunos have been working incredibly hard to bring them to console and we're going into submission at the end of the month. Once we've gone into submission, we'll then be able to give you a launch date. Expect it to be in April!

    We know our community are also incredibly keen to know what else is coming as part of that update, and we hope to be able to share that info very soon.

    Thanks once again for your patience!

    From Assetto Corsa Facebook page:
    We’re proud to announce 2 pieces of FREE bonus content, coming soon to Assetto Corsa on Steam as part of our next major update.

    Mazda 787B
    [​IMG]


    Back in 1991, Mazda became the first Japanese manufacturer to win the 24 hours of Le Mans, with the Mazda 787B. This Group C sports prototype weighed in at just 845kg and was capable of reaching top speeds of over 340 km/h, as well as producing 690bhp at 8000rpm, thanks to its Wankel rotary engine.

    Mazda MX-5 N/A
    [​IMG]

    Introducing the Mazda MX-5 first generation, the car which revived the classic roadster in the 90’s. Produced with a 1.6 Litre and a 1.8 Litre engine, with the latter capable of 128bhp. The modest power was more than enough to push the lightweight body to over 200 km/h.

    Stay tuned for more info on what to expect in Update v 1.13 on PC.

    I believe that is correct @Cherno. Here is a write up about it on gt planet
    Mazda 787B & MX-5 Heading to Assetto Corsa for Free in Next Update; 911 RSR Coming ‘Very Soon’
    March 21st, 2017 by Ali Samy
    [​IMG]

    Good news for Assetto Corsa players. Kunos Simulazioni has announced that two of the most iconic cars to wear the Mazda badge are coming to the game for free, while a previously-announced Porsche is inbound as well.

    Both Japanese models will be arriving with the game’s next major update on PC. Both the 787B and MX-5 started life as third-party mods within the Assetto Corsa community, but were received so positively that Kunos worked with Mazda to evolve them for official inclusion.

    Assetto Corsa‘s rather impressive physics engine should be well suited to the NA-generation Mazda MX-5. The first iteration of the best-selling sports car in the world should provide plenty of fun for players with its classic front-engine, rear wheel drive setup.

    It’s going to be really exciting to get to grips with the only Japanese Le Mans winner, and we will be turning the volume all the way up to listen to the iconic shriek that the infamous four-rotor engine makes. The Group C-era 787B will join the equally monstrous Sauber C9 that’s already included in Assetto Corsa. Porsche pack owners can also count the 962c — in long and short-tail versions — within the group.

    [​IMG]

    Speaking of Porsche, the long-awaited mid-engined 911 RSR is set to arrive “very soon”, according to a post from Kunos in the official forums. Originally set to be included in Porsche Pack Volume Three, the 911 RSR was replaced by the road-going Turbo S. The racer was then ear-marked for January, but very little has been heard about it since.

    This will mark the second update for PC players. There has been no console timeline given for the new content, but PlayStation 4 and Xbox One players should expect the last round of new content — which includes the Audi S1 and new Highlands circuit — at some point in April. Stay tuned to GTPlanet for more Assetto Corsa news as it arrives.

    And here's the V1.13 update info

    We're pleased to announce that Update v1.13 is available to download on Steam NOW, featuring the Mazda MX5 NA and the Mazda 787B as FREE bonus content. But that's not all! Update v1.13 also natively brings the long-awaited OpenVR / VIVE support (beta) and some fixes for Oculus users, as well as many new multiplayer features, including reversed grid races and mandatory pits with pit stops strategy presets! Check out the following changelog for all the improvement and fixes!

    v1.13 Changelog

    - New Porsche 911 RSR 2017 for Porsche Pack 3
    - New Mazda MX-5 Miata NA
    - New Mazda 787B: mod skins made for the original 787B mod will need to be updated using the new template
    - Added OpenVR/Vive support (beta)
    - Fixed Mazda MX-5 ND setup ride height false indication
    - Fixed Alfa Romeo Giulietta QV gearbox damage
    - Adjusted Lotus 72D and Ferrari 312T tyre compound wear and heat ranges
    - Fixed Flag rendering for VR
    - Fixed colour balance for emissive items (lights+digital) when Post Processing is turned off
    - Added downshift protection alert (can be disabled through the launcher options)
    - All GT2/GTE cars default to Medium tyres now (also for AI)
    - Fixed broken rendering when OCULUS mode is selected but no Oculus is actually connected
    - Added Pitstop arrows to DirectInput Dpad: bind to the wheel dPad: can be overidden by controls.ini [ADVANCED]DPAD_INDEX_OVERRIDE=0
    - Added Pitstop quickmenu + Setup pitstop strategy: this can be custumized and disabled by system/cfg/pitstop.ini [SETTINGS]USE_MOUSE_PITSTOP=0
    - Updated Fanatec library to support new wheel bases.
    - Fixed possible CPU warning when player gets retired.

    Multiplayer Features
    - Added reversed grid races: The race session will be restarted in reversed grid order based on the standings of the previous race. Players disqualified in the first race will start from the back of the grid in the second race, regardless of their position being within the reversed grid range.
    - Added locked entry list in pickup mode: same as in booking mode, only players already included in the entry list can join the server (password not needed).
    - Added car Steam ID sharing in entry list: each car in the entry list can feature multiple GUIDs. Players can share that car (one at once). The name inserted in the entry list is used as driver name.
    - Fixed server result log not displaying invalid laps.
    - Fixed end-of-race session status for lapped players in lap races.
    - Added Mandatory Pit: A pit window can be added to the race session. As a design choice, players need to stop at their pit box within the pit window to have a valid pit stop. Players with pit boxes further down the pitlane need to take this into account before deciding on their strategy. Players may make additional pit stops before and after the pit window, but only making a mandatory stop in the indicated pit window will validate their race. Server admins must decide on a pit window that allows all players, regardless of their pit box position, to comfortably make a pit stop under normal racing conditions.
    - Updated Shared Memory

    Some good mods released recently worth checking out:
    http://www.racedepartment.com/downloads/krb-audi-s1-silhouette.14447/

    It’s a one-off build by KRB-Trading of Norway for the “Extreme”-class race series, held as part of the Scandinavian Gatebil tuner/car culture festivals. A car built with basically no rules and limits. Somewhere between Unlimited Time Attack and “cure for polar night depression”. Over 1000 bhp at all four wheels. Big turbo lag, even bigger wings.

    New mods out for AC:

    The 255 Bhp 2lt MINI TwinPower engine tuned to deliver manageable torque and a wide rev range, helps to contribute to laps times that worry some Touring Car specifications.
    Dunlop Slick & Wet tyres ensure traction is commensurate with power in all conditions.
    The JCW class suits drivers who want a Touring Car Experience at a fraction of the budget.

    A lot of drivers that have ventured in the UK Mini Challenge, have gone on to Touring cars....

    WTAF... went to install this car. copied in the Car folder instead of merging with the folder that's already there it's blown it away without giving me an option so this is the only damn car I have installed now.

    Do I just have to validate game cache and re-install all my mod cars and skins now or is there another way to restore without a recent steam backup? :cry:

    whaaat. that seems really wierd. i just added the mod folder to the cars section under content. so it erased all the other cars in the folder and left just that? if so thats really weird ive dropped hundreds of mods into the cars and tracks folder and never had that problem. can you cntrl-z in the folder to undo? check recycle bin for the old files? verify cache will fix the standard content. sorry man that sucks.

    Yea I know weird as eh? Yep CNTRL-Z I did without even checking for files when I didn't get the confirmation dialogue to merge or overwrite folders then there was just no cars (or fonts) folders at all. Nothing in the recycle bin either. Gutted.
