So I FINALLY Tried The ACC Version Of The Nurburgring...Is It Any Good?

Sorry this took a long time to do - I have the pretty insane excuse that I was actually racing there IRL for the last couple of weeks!

NLS layout probably isn't included, because it's not part of SRO. Just the 24h version for IGTC.

Yep thats exactly why

It’s great to see you so happy and in a better mind set. You have turned the corner in life and I am so happy to see it! Good for you man, you make us all proud knowing that a kid living in a shed can get a drive in the N24. Congrats brother

[@Ermz]

Similar impressions as you, Jimmy. I spoke to a few of the eSports guys and the consensus appears to be that the track showcases some of the current shortfalls of ACC's damper/suspension simulation. Driving through Hatzenbach is proper wild, as you illustrated. I've been using solely paid setups, as that's the minimum to even make the car compliant through the curby sections. The stock setups are all woeful. Like driving bouncy castles. Beyond that obviously the best N24 layout we've had in any sim. Immersion, details etc. all on a completely different level. Super awesome DLC. Basically a gift. Much love.

[@elmurcis1]

Love the detail (I think right after turning into Nords part if not mixing spots) with bonefire in crowd being in shape of tracks minimap (glowing).

[@bag2402]

I believe they got to scan the circuit before new tarmac was replaced, so thts why the track could feel bumpy. I believe Misha mentioned this in his ACC 24h nurburgring video.

[@Matty.Hill_87]

That last minute send to beat the Mercedes was amazing 😂

[@jacohop]

Kunos keeping with the tradition of jank default setups. All the cars need some sort of setup work at minimum, and then there’s the old thing of the pressures. The car feels so much better when they’re in the window (~26.8) … But I’m sure we all know these things… Looking forward to your multiplayer vids and love your work/following your career, jimmy!

[@ConfusedRaccoon]

IRL, what do you do about cars behind with highbeams burning your eyes in the mirrors, do you just deal withit or is there a dim function on the mirrors?

[@mrsickukxx1332]

I’ve watched quite a bit of ACC Nordschleife and none of the cars I’ve seen have been that bumpy as the GT2 you were driving, reckon it’s a setup issue mate. Nice vid 👍

[@jonnysev]

Who better to give an analysis or critique of this track than a driver who has raced and won there. Congratulations!

[@fillman86]

Jimmy, you can set OBS to have custom resolutions, and then record side by side 1080. This will also keep it synchronised perfectly. You can also set it to have multiple audio channels too. It's what I do, and it makes life so much easier for me and my editor. It's easier to show than tell, so hmu if you want a 30 second tutorial

I've seen a few laps of the new Nurburgring track in ACC and there's so much bouncing around from the cars - I know you talked about it - it's just a bit off-putting because I have always enjoyed this track in Project Cars 2 and the original Assetto Corsa but didn't feel very confident about it in ACC.

[@eebergkamen]

If you want to drive this track in multiplayer I can just give you the advice to do it in a league, open lobby's are chaotic as it is but on this track it's just bonkers. Most people can't drive a full lap and some don't care about racing and just crash you out of the way

[@Very_Grumpy_Cat]

I am new here and new to moza software. I have experienced moza pit house software is makeing my games (for example f1 23) run slower. After I installed moza pit house my games run at 10 to 30 fps, whereas before I downloaded the software they ran at 70 to 120 fps. It is like moza have a cryptominer in its software. In the software, the wheel when I for example turned the wheel 90 degrees to the right the softeware can see i am turning 90 degrees to the right. But suddenly the software is showing the wheel at 0 degrees and then 90 degrees in a millisecond. It is only in the software and it is happening all the time. In f1 23 I only get 10-20 fps, which makes the input and output from the wheel glitchy and then i crash and the base gives op giving an input and in the software the wheel is turned -180 degrees. I have to turn my base off and on to make an input to the software. I have: R12 base CS V2 wheel CRP peddels

[@Very_Grumpy_Cat]

[@luanfsp]

I think, like, I don't know. Seems like Jimmy likes this track. I'm not sure 😂

[@markocorak6736]

It's bumpy in gt2, gt3 feels pretty planted

[@opmike343]

It's just a quirk of the physics model. It's bumpy in every single class in the game. Also, "bumpy" and "planted" aren't mutually exclusive. The former has more to do with the track mesh/scan implementation and the suspension physics model.

[@PROlegend-pb6vm]

[@existentialselkath1264]

It feels like whiplash going from forza motorsports 'new scan' to assetto corsa competizione in just a few months. The quality here is insane.

[@NoNamerMr]

Fun fact: the scan isn't made by the developers. It's done by the "Nürburgring 1927 GmbH & Co. KG", the operator of the nurburgring/Nordschleife. Game developers can reach out to them to use the scan in their games. The scan they are using is pretty old actually. A new scan will be made, once they finished overhauling the circuit. So, Forza's and ACC's renditions are based on the same scan. :)

[@existentialselkath1264]

@@NoNamerMr source? Especially about a new scan being made? Are turn 10 planning on updating the track later? Also, while the scan may not be theirs, the track model itself obviously is. A scan is like glorified measurements at this point

[@kristianangeloni]

​@@NoNamerMr Nurburgring in Forza is wrong in too many aspect to be the same scan used in ACC or any other racing game with a laser scan version on the track.

[@agenttechstreams3891]

[@existentialselkath1264]

@@kristianangeloni a scan isn't the model you actually race on. The track model is just created using a scan as reference. While there's no reason to believe it was, it's certainly possible the same scan was used.

[@theWozzz]

the NLS/VLN layout does not exist in-game because those events are not SRO run, unlike the N24 is (starting this year). It's all very confusing.

[@naufalkusumah2192]

so when Jimmy participates on the 24h Nurburgring this year, will it be part of the VLN or NLS?

[@JohnDoeGemany123]

​@@naufalkusumah2192 No, the 24h Qualifiers last weekend were part of the NLS and counted towards the NLS championship points. The 24h race itself is a standalone event.

[@chickenpasta7359]

this is so stupid. i understand ACC wants to be THE GT3 sim but they could just make a version of the track without the boring part and just label it as non-NRO or something

[@theWozzz]

@@chickenpasta7359 I'm sure they could, and maybe they even want to. But they are limited by their licensing agreement with the SRO and being the 'official sim' of the SRO. This is why they were unable to add the Nords prior to this year since the N24 is now an SRO sanctioned event.

[@stuartpietzka9148]

​@chickenpasta7359 they can't because of licensing

[@BobJoe4002]

Jimmer, I felt the same way about the bumpyness on the stock setup. They've changed the dampers, so the setups need some tuning to feel solid around this circuit.

[@-KelevraGaming-]

yeah i have found that the BMW takes the take the best for me so far. Porsche feels like its the fastest. going to try the Merc next.

[@SuffyANX]

Yeah, the default Porsche 992 GT3 setup here is godfuckingawful bumpy because of the dampers, fixing it took that car from completely undriveable to amazing feeling, goes over a curb, hits the ground, and instantly is glued with no bouncing.

[@Randomii666]

All of the porsches have been a bit questionable at least since V1.9. The 992 GT3 used to have a funny bug, where it started randomly jumping after being lowered down after pitstop or going over certain curbs, and it didin't stop xD

[@recarsion]

I've heard ACC exaggerates the bumps anyway with any setup

[@ThatLoudLad]

@@recarsion not if you can tune your setups properly! The car will behave like that if you have a poor setup!

[@opmike343]

I LOVE how they let us bypass the Nordschleife and it's something I really miss in all the other sims. Comes in handy when you're trying to warm up the tires for a push lap.

[@magzire]

iracing doesnt have it?

[@GeorgioSubs]

Absolute game changer.

[@bernardoberner4]

2:06 Very simple explanaition actually, Kunos only has the license to add SRO related content to the game and as we know, the N24 is part of IGTC and only the N24 and thats the layout used in that race so, thats basically it. Despite it being very easy for them to add the NLS layout to the game, it wouldnt make sense for them to do so and theyre probably not allowed to do so either

[@Wild7676]

Not allowed to. Unfortunately even just the GP circuit wasn't updated due to how licensing works. Nothing Kunos can do.

Bumpy setup weirdness aside (Maybe the car is missing a set of premium Bilstein suspension?), I absolutely adore the atmosphere of this track!
