The future of Sol - Pure
🕑 Added 2021-07-27 13:19:41 +0000 UTCHello,
I want to thank you my patreons, for all that support you give me!!!
I just like to show you some view in the future of AC/CSP -> Sol.
In the last weeks we discussed some things in the community. There are some things, which are not right at the moment. Its a basic thing, which influences all the attempts to do proper lighting and graphics in AC/CSP.
Now, all lighting is adapted to look ok in most situations. Everything must be adapted, if sun and ambient light changes.
But what if we try to do the things like they are in reality? What if a lamp has nearly its correct brightness in comparison to the sun? sunlight is much stronger then a lamp. But atm in CSP, a lamp has quiet the same power like the sun.
In reality we have to adapt the receivers of the world (cameras or eyes) to the current lighting. Atm the world is adapted to the receivers.
So i started a little test project to prove such things. I created a small weatherFX script, where the lighting represents a reality like dynamic. Not the same, but a much bigger one, than current implementations.
Now a lamp's bounced light is nearly not visible in daytime, because sun and ambient light is much stronger AND now the most important part - it becomes automatically visible, with lowering sun and ambient light while the transition to night.
The little test project proved the things so well, that we now start every thing from the ground. A new project is born, which has this principle as a base.
We will create a basic weather script called "Pure", which will be a very lightweigt implementation like the default script.
"Pure" is then also the base of Sol 3.0, which will have the same amount of feature like now, but with correct lighting.
In the process of proving the main things, Ilja is doing a new bakery for vao-patches. This will give us correct vaos. Now the ambient light in very dark places is nearly 0. That will give as correct graphics in such places.
So you see, the things will then work out of the box, with no adaptions needed. Its the real lighting. This makes everything much smarter and easier.
In the next weeks, i will work on the basic structure of Pure, so maybe you can test it in a couple weeks.
The video just shows you the basic principle of this real lighting. You see, with static exposure, the bounced light is also static, but in daylight, it is not visible...

Ok Peter, Ok Peter, I figured out how to do it. After losing sol planner, we must delete the element settings in the folder as you advised but also uninstall the sol 2.2.2 in the Mods folder in the root of the game. Also delete the sol planner folder which is located in Steamapps/common/assettocorsa. In this apps folder, you must also delete sol planner, because it creates a conflict when reinstalling Sol 2.2 in the Mods folder

Ok thanks Peter. Manipulation done, now I find sol planner in game in the apps but it shows me a message telling me to select it in the CSP, weather fx. Sol 2.2 and Pure are already well established in the CSP system. Same after restarting, always the same message. Would you have a solution. Of course floor planner is checked activated everywhere in the settings and content of csp. and each attempt gives me the settings file in the folder. Everything worked great, even after the installation of the new pure 0.115. Sol planner disappeared suddenly while moving from one session to another. Thank you in advance for the information you can bring me pke it's a shame not to be able to use this function. I have a csp 1.79

Delete its settings.in in \steamapps\common\assettocorsa\apps\python\sol_planner\settings\ and update Content Manager

Hello Peter, sol planner disappears from the in-game menus while it is well checked enabled in csp, well installed ect ect.. Even after a reinstallation of Sol 2.2.2 it still does not appear in game. do you have a solution to remedy it?
Hi peter, i am from China, i cant download your files from google page, therefore, may i get files from other ways.

Robert Lunatic

Bruno Dias

Leonard Ampoe
you have to use the included uninstaller before you install the new version
Robert Lunatic
I dont understand, i just installed it, and i still have the same sol 2.0 option in my menu.. not 2.2
Bonjour Pierre, merci pour ces informations. On compte sur vous.
This is great news Peter!
Jacopo Di Giuli
Great work Peter.. as always! Just one question: when will be released the final version of SOL 2.2 with HDR Filter?
Guershom Kitsa
Super excited to see and try this! Thanks for all the hard work!
