ACC player counts in review: January 2023

We’ve entered February, which means the first month of 2023 has been completed. This also means there is a fresh month’s worth of player data for me to go through in regard to Assetto Corsa Competizione (ACC). Will 2023 be a fresh start for the waning player counts, which for the first time showed a declining year-on-year growth at the back end of 2022 (compared to 2021)? In this series of articles – I’ve been doing this since March 2020 – I analyze the playercounts from Assetto Corsa Competizione (ACC)...

#WeRaceAsOne || ACC Custom Livery

On the 19th of December, 2022, the Fédération Internationale de l’Automobile (or, more commonly known, the FIA) published it’s sporting code for 2023. All teams, drivers, etc. in racing categories governed by the FIA (which is nearly all) must abide by this code of conduct. They update and publish a new code every year. Most often, they just add nuances to existing rules to make it more clear what is and what isn’t allowed during race weekends. Because there are many cases each year in which discussion arises whether something...

‘GO BEAVS’ BMW M4 GT3 || ACC Custom Livery

Around Christmas, I was contacted by an American living in Germany. He wanted to commission me to do a livery for his brother who still resides in the States. A BMW M4 GT3 based on the colours and logo of the Oregon State University college football team, the Beavers. I quickly went to work and came up with a, if I might say so myself, pretty sweet livery, as seen below. Unfortunately, knowing not much about American Football, I had based this design on some dated logos and colours. Furthermore,...

UOP Shadow McLaren 720S GT3 || ACC Custom Livery

Around Christmas, I was contacted by an American living in Germany. He wanted to commission me to do a livery for his brother who still resides in the States. And, because he didn’t want his brother to be the only dressed in custom colours, he also wanted one for himself too. His choice for a livery based on the Shadow F1 and sportscars of the 70s must be based on nostalgia, but the simple black with red/orange/yellow/white details quickly grew on me too. So much so, that I finished his...

ACC player counts in review: December 2022

Happy New Year! I hope you are not as hungover as I am right now. But, despite my alcohol consumption last night, duty calls. And my duty is to bring you the latest in Assetto Corsa Competizione (ACC) player statistics. And we’ll do just that now, for December 2022! In this series of articles – I’ve been doing this since March 2020 – I analyze the playercounts from Assetto Corsa Competizione (ACC) using data from both steamdb and steamcharts. I implement the data into my own spreadsheets, creating my own graphics and tables....

Club.AOR Aston Martin & McLaren || ACC Custom Livery

I’ve been taking commissions for a few months now. The 3rd commission I completed was this one. A community leader contacted me asking for 3 separate liveries. One for the Mclaren 720s and one for the Aston Martin AMRV8. And, another for an Alpine Safety Car which is not included in this post. Communicating proved a bit of a hassle, with the client not responding in a timely manner. As such, I was almost unable to make their requested deadline. To ensure that I would be able to meet the...

Porsche Mission R GT4 || ACC Custom Livery

I’ve already made two custom ACC liveries based on Porsche’s Mission R concept car. The first was based on the 2019 Porsche 991 II GT3 R. The second on the 2021 Porsche 911 GT3 Cup (992). When I was browsing the (increasingly) long list of custom ACC liveries I have created, one thing stood out: I haven’t given the GT4 class the love it deserves. And one easy way to fix that is by also creating a Mission R livery for the Porsche 718 Cayman GT4. The result can be...

Ducati Corse #63 || ACC Custom Livery

After many years of being close to clinching the MotoGP title, Ducati have finally done it. Francesco “Pecco” Bagnaia is world champion on a Ducati in MotoGp. The first Ducati champion since Casey Stoner in 2007. The first Italian MotoGP champion since Valentino Rossi in 2009. And the first Italian rider on an Italian bike to clinch the title since Giacomo Agostini in 1972 on his MV Agusta. To commemorate this Italian slam dunk, I figured I could make a little livery out of this. The result of which can...

ACC player counts in review: November 2022

We’ve reached the final month of the year: December. This means it is time to look back at the second-to-last month; November. How many players (have) play(ed) Assetto Corsa Competizione (ACC)? If you’re looking for the answer to that question (at least for November 2022), you’ve opened the right article. In this series of articles – I’ve been doing this since March 2020 – I analyze the playercounts from Assetto Corsa Competizione (ACC) using data from both steamdb and steamcharts. I implement the data into my own spreadsheets, creating my own graphics and...

Danke Seb – ACC Custom Livery

I made a new livery. But before I detail this livery (which you can already see in the video above), I need to get this off my chest. Scroll down below for the download, or read my love letter to the guy this livery is dedicated to. Your choice. Seb. I grew up watching F1. Michael Schumacher was my hero. Like many of my generation. When Der Michael retired by the end of 2006 however, I had already found the next driver I would support: Sebastian Vettel. Vettel. Seb. I...
