Hey all! Just had an amazing time jumping back into Assetto Corsa after watching the Belgium GP this weekend. Ran some laps with F1 cars around Spa, and the experience was incredible!

I’m running a couple different RSS and VRC Formula Hybrid F1 car mods.

The highlight was playing with the rain and experiencing the mind-blowing effects provided by CSP (Custom Shaders Patch). The simulated spray from the tires made the race so immersive, I couldn’t get enough of it!

I can’t wait for iRacing to finish their rain implementation, but for now, I’m more than happy to get my rainy fix in Assetto Corsa. Patience is key, and the experience is totally worth it! Happy racing!

Bonus question: does anyone concentrate mainly on iRacing but still play AC a lot? Curious how much of a relearn it’d take to go back and forth between the two. If it would really affect my performance in iRacing. Not like im told tier so I guess who cares really.

    I just started sim racing and hadn’t heard about the custom shaders patch yet, looks awesome I will have to check it out!

    Any other mods you think are great for it?

    I saw your other post, I do frequently play ACC, AC, Beamng, and iRacing. I usually will take some time in iRacing to set some practice laps before doing any race so I can get my breaking references down again and see if I can find some more grip to send it in spots. Because I take that time I haven’t seen any downsides from swapping about, but I am relatively new to iracing with only 1440 iRating in road so far, so I do have major room for improvement and refinement this maybe a higher concern if you are getting really competitive in iRacing however many streamers and esport sim racers do seem to bounce around a good bit so I wouldn’t worry too much just keep the same focus. The same skill set for finding grip and exploring the cars’ capabilities will always be useful in any sim is just the muscle memory for each will also be slightly different and it will take more time to skill up in any one car if you are also trying to commit 12 other cars to memory if that makes sense.
