Video: MrGit’s ACC League Round 3 – Silverstone

I’ve been league racing in MrGit@Twitch’s ACC League for quite a while now, and it is quickly becoming the highlight of my week. Not only am I racing against people on my level, they take the racing seriously too. No incessant crashing, but close and competitive racing. Awesome! Here’s the video of most of my highlights. Most, since ACC can only save 60 minutes of video and this race was a whopping 90 minutes long! For more information, you can go to MrGit’s website or follow him on Twitch.tv!

Tool: Assetto Corsa’s Setup Tips

I’ve found that setting up cars in Assetto Corsa Competizione is a bit above my current skill level. For me (and probably a lot of other enthusiasts like me) there are just too many variables which can make a car go round faster, but also slower. Toe, caster, rebound, differential preload: what do these terms mean? I have a vague idea of what they are, but how do they pertain to the performance of my car in different situations?! I was in dire need of some setup tips. In Assetto...

Design: Porsche 991 GT3 “Pink Pig”

After creating the Ferrari 488 GT3 I felt like doing more cars from the Blancpain field this way. One of the first to spring to mind was the Porsche, because of its iconic shape that hasn’t changed much over the past 50 odd years. Long did I doubt about the color to upload this in. First, I wanted to do an acid green color to resemble the Manthey Porsches. Ultimately, it was suggested I go with the iconic Pink Pig design which was used for Porsche’s 917/20 in the 70s....

How to change car liveries (in ACC)

This is an old post. If you are looking for a tutorial on how to make full custom liveries, click here for my written tutorial. If you are simply looking for the templates, click here. UPDATE MAY 2020: as of v1.4-ish the templates have been unofficially released so we can make full custom liveries. People do need to have your files if they want to see it though. UPDATE DEC 2019: as per v1.2, this tutorial has been made redundant – the in-game editor is now live. You are, however,...

Design: Ferrari 488 GT3

Playing Assetto Corsa Competizione has given me inspiration to convert some of the cars into artwork, starting with Ferrari’s aggressive looking 488 GT3. I’ve uploaded the design to Redbubble, mainly because I myself am going to the Blancpain GT3 races at Zandvoort the 14th of July, and I wanted to wear a shirt based on this design. If you fancy this design yourself, feel free to click on the link below! Ferrari 488 GT3 Racing on Redbubble The shirt has arrived, and it is looking mighty good, Excuse the crappy...

Video: Battling MrGit around Brands Hatch

I’ve been enjoying the full release of Assetto Corsa Competizione quite a lot right now. I’ve been steadily joining an online community centered around a streamer called MrGit (MrGit@Twitch). Since I have a dual screen setup, I have his stream on my secondary monitor, with my racing on the primary. You can’t see it in this video, but while I was battling him on this screen, I could see him battling me on my other one. Even though you can’t experience the same, this is still a good example of...

Video: Battling D.Jankovic around Hungaroring

I’ve been having loads of fun with the new Early Access release of Assetto Corsa Competizione which adds a more stable multiplayer functionality. Instead of racing the AI, I can now also battle others around some of the released tracks. A great example of the battles you can have is the above video I captured last night. It’s also my first attempt at using multiple recordings and stitching them together to form a more realistic broadcast of the action. Let me know what you think of this ACC video!

Design: “Here comes the BOOM”

Rocket League is another mighty game I enjoy. The purpose is to score an oversized ball with rocket propelled cars into the opponents goal. It’s as difficult and ridiculous as it is fun. One of the things you can do is demo(lish) your opponents car, resulting in a neat looking explosion which tanks your framerate if you have a shitty computer like I had. Now before you scroll down, please allow me to set the stage. Put up this song, BOOM, by 90’s rock-product P.O.D. Play any of these videos....

Design: Assetto Corsa Competizione Alt. Logo

When Assetto Corsa Competizione (ACC) was first announced, I was just experiencing my first Assetto Corsa ‘high’. I was a bit late to the party. However, I thought that AC1 lacked a bit of focus. ACC promises to be about GT3 cars, and GT3 only – featuring the Blancpain GT-series. This prompted some inspiration, so I created this ACC logo; Assetto Corsa Competizione can be purchased HERE on Steam. I highly recommend you doing so. I might do a review later.
