This Mod TRANSFORMS Assetto Corsa 

Jimmy, You need to do something I figured out when playing in VR... Lean over to the window. It actually even simulates the condensation from your breath and fogs up

there actually is a proper racing line when in the wet, you just have to enable it :)

RainFX is insane. The wipers clear the rain away in a convincing way, the rain fulls back in progressively and not just in a single sheet like some games and just how it all moves around or gets sprayed off the wipers. It is amazing what the modding community has done. I have done so many drives along the PCH, LA Canyons, SRP with rain on just because of how cool it looks.

So glad to see the Assetto Corsa content! Such an amazing sim, and like a fine wine, seems to continue to improve with age. AC2 is going to have a VERY high bar to reach given how much has been added onto AC by the mod community.

My favorite little detail of rainfx is that if you're in vr you can put your face up to the windows to fog them up and use your controllers to draw in the fog with your fingers

jimmy, you really need to activate "real mirrors" in the content manager -> settings -> custom shader patch -> smart mirror. they are a game changer for VR immersion!

About the track and puddle thing, some tracks (like Spa) have configs which make the puddles in better spots and actually make wet lines happen

Got a steering wheel and pedals to pair with my VR a few weeks ago and I have to say, the SRP mod alongside the rain effects just makes me feel so comfortable and relaxed. Driving around late at night with the pitter patter of the rain and the wipers, as well as the hum of the engine just takes me back to late night road trips with my dad where I used to fall asleep on the motorway on the way home. I can and have spent hours just aimlessly driving in the rain, just content.

Jimmy and AC just feels like home.

This community for Assetto Corsa is soo damn good, every time it delivers something else to the table 👏

Jimmy you can also change the mirrors to be more realistic. The side mirrors will show the sides of the car, and the rear view will actually show your interior

I love it when Jimmy genuinely enjoys making a video, it’s heart warming and great!

You can switch the mirrors to render based on your head movement and also show the car model for a bit more immersion

When I was younger I remember downloading and playing MUGEN, a 2D VS fighting platform where you could import and play with any character from any fighting game in any stage (almost only ripped off characters from other games). I absolutely loved it and thought "imagine this with a racing game.." And here I am, 20 years later, playing Asserto Corsa where you can basically do that. Effin awesome.

Rebel Tree will remember this day. He was out in the rain, alone. And you drove right past him. Not even a henlo :(

Assetto Corsa with the rain at night time in VR is one of the best gaming experiences I had ! It was a pain in the ass to set up but damn it was so worth it !

i love watching VR in vids - natural head movement feels more immersive to me

The best thing about the preview version of mods is that they are getting updated resonablly often the rain model has been updated a few times in the last few months

Assetto Corsa ages like fine wine. I hope Kunos takes notes on what makes this game so special.

you need to use the "smart mirrors" in shaders patch to make the mirrors reflect the car properly - makes a huge difference to immersion in VR

the wet physics will probably be improved later on, this is all still the preview version.

I know, videos already recorded and all that, but another really nice addition, especially with vr, is real mirrors. It changes the mirrors to actually show what they should show from the perspective of the mirror, especially the rear view because in normal assetto corsa in vr it just looks like a rear facing camera being displayed in the mirror instead of being able to see your interior and everything. Super immersive and you can actually see your head moving (and they even give you the option of disabling the head in case it gets in your way).

I drove the Nordschleife in weather like this back in 2017 in a megane RS. It was wild. You expected it to be like glass but it was like polished glass with oil on it 😂

Great to see AC in VR getting some love on Jimmer's channel but a bit of a shame he hasn't had time to set it all up properly so it looks a bit naff. It's best with the latest Sol and Pure mods from Peter Boese. Also having the rain at 100% is insane as 30% represents a really wet day.

I like to drive all the f1 tracks before I watch the races, makes watching the race so much more enjoyable.

my sweet summer jimmer, you are about 3 years late to the party but we're glad you're here to share it with us anyway

I have long since awaited a new VR AC video from Jimmer and I Excite

I've had Assetto Corsa & Competizione for a few weeks now and love it. New to sim racing too.

One of the scariest car experiences in my life was going around the Nordschleife in conditions almost this bad as a passenger in my friend's 140i. Even with all the driver aids turned on, we were sideways everywhere. They closed the track about an hour after we did our lap and were in the restaurant waiting for the shakes to wear off!

Had to check outside to make sure it wasn't raining. Menn what a good rain sound

I actually loved your VR videos especially like automobilista 2 it’s so cool to get a “helmet cam” video

You say its harder to watch but i think your vr content is some of your best and most fun to watch, so much more interesting!

I did not expect Killer Instinct music in a Jimmy Broadbent video, but I am pleasantly surprised.

This mod looks cool, should try it out, thx. Reminds me the Driveclub, the weather effects in that game were ahead of their time.

The question the real Jimmy Broadbent fanboys want to know is: does the rebel tree stay dry in that mod?

the glass get foggy from the inside too when i watching 3:25 thats pretty cool, i only play Forza 4 and 5 in onboard camera during the rain and it didnt give that kind of detail on the windshield. Mod community of AC sure know how to mod this game

If you move near the windows they fog up. You can also take your in-game hands off the wheel using VR controllers and draw in the condensation!

I believe the latest version of csp paid has a setting to increase or decrease the difficulty of driving in rain, the water patches can really f ya up

I love watching VR vids as the screen aint as sterile its way more realistic looking when watching imo

The water streaks on the side window are absolutely rad, small details matter.

Have you tried Assetto Corsa Evoluzione yet? It's a full Career mode a la Gran Turismo with a progression system, dozens of events, dailies, car collection, etc. Incredibly fun and with the GT7 HUD mod, basically brings a modern Gran Turismo to PC.

Showed these Mods to some programming guys and they were speechless. Best rain implementation in any game and it's "just a mod"

So, nothing about installing the mods, nothing about configuring the mods, nothing about the mods themselves really, just nearly 15 minutes of watching you drive around a wet track, eh? Good stuff man. Good stuff.

JIMMY, the Killer Instinct ONE ost in the bg?! I love you.

MORE VR pls!

just did this, and It nearly made me cry, made me have that excitement for gaming I havnt had in years

By the way, you can use your controllers to adjust the rearview and side mirrors with your hands, and you can also put your face near the window, which builds up condensation and you can then draw on the window with your fingers

I can relate to the post-crash simulated VR vom, thanks Jimmer. Now time to hit the diced carrots.

VR content is amazing please keep it going

Love your videos! I have a potato PC so I play GTR2 with Mods, and people still make mods for it which surprises me, but more mods for me I guess. Driving in the 100% rain in GTR2 is insane and I would say is realistic and GTR2 can look just as good as Assetto Corsa with mods, I encourage any one reading this to pick up the base game and then mod it.

This driving experience reminds me of my old mod back in years ^^ DIRT3 Realistic Driving Mod V2.0

You can get close to the window to make condensation then draw on the windows if you use hand tracking

It's wonderful! This game might worth a try if I wanna try track racing! (Developer note: The raindrop particles can have a travel distance between zero and movement speed related X, and if they have a nice refraction/ specular shader they actually cause caustics and reflect stuff, and the particles can have a collider that collides with the wiper) Well done modders!

driving the C8 Z06 mod around the LA Canyons is a good time.

Finally built a gaming PC, Assetto Corsa with mods has just been....amazing to say the least.

Take a drink every time he says “in real life” 😂

Hi Jimmy, I'm the author of formula DS, now I'm working on a rental kart + indoor track mod, from well, months. It's getting greatly accurate (I've driven the real thing over the real track for the last 2 years lol) and i wonder if would like to try it out 😁 The track looks great in the night, thanks to shaders patch

I really enjoyed the Gran Turismo mod that you played with Porsche 917 on Deep Forest. This one is really nice also.

This is where Kyloton got their inspiration for their rain effects for WRC Generations.

Everything about the game is awesome. I raced in so many multiclass championships and 24hr races that I don't feel the need to switch over. The community is totally awesome.

looks amazing! The only thing that stands out is the sound. When you drive through a puddle you only get sound from one earbud. But you should hear it with both your ears

looks incredible Jimbot

Bought AC during a Steam Summer sale for 5$ CDN. The amount of content for that price is just incredible.

The old F1 Jordan car is fun as hell on the gring in the rain.

in VR: Nordshleife at night in the rain with full 24hr grid is mental. Scariest i've ever done but its so beautiful.

VR is always an experience 😂👌

Hey Jimmy, I think most streamers will run a or join a private server and login with 2 separate steam accounts. Your POV on your main pc and then the 3rd person on the other pc... granted thats a lot more components and stuff to deal with. Either way I love watching the VR stuff!

the rainfx has been so good lately. once they dial in the physics i think it's gonna be an experience that won't be matched for a good while. puddle location and wet line i think will depend on a custom config in the end so im sure we'll start seeing config releases on race department when the method gets nailed down. also i was getting annoyed by the wiper noise so i figured out how to get rid of it if anyone is interested

Personally I love your VR vids the best ❤

Need to get back into this game

I recently got rain fx and was wondering if you ever used it so I guess the timing was just perfect

x4fab is the man for keeping Ac alive.

Man I love racing in the rain. I hope it’s good for training instinct. Even if it’s still a game, asecor and gran turismo helped me with driving reactions in real life

For those, who wondering which mod this is. This is Imrezza made by GMP. It's has no brakes and very understeery physics. (Go for 22B made by DDM if you want a better Impreza mod). But for the rain it fits perfectly.

wow! think i need to go on a mod download frenzy!

There are tracks that have drying lines with variable grip levels.

Puddles need the water hitting the underbody of the car and wheel well sounds. Has a deeper pitch and kind of chunky dull metal sounding.

The rain feels so good

"Mom, I want a PS5 with PSVR2!!" "But we have all that at home!" All that at home:

Because of this VR sim, I'm permanently back on your channel Jimmy. Glad you're on it again

that is pretty heckin gosh darn nice lookin'!! holy heck! I wish I could VR, but I'm pretty sure that's gonna be a hard no for the rest of my life from here on out. I really wish we could get more HUD options in gt7 instead of a mode I'm never going to use, because I'm selfish! lmao but it would be nice to be able to move things around on screen, and drive in car view AND have it be useful by being able to see the rear view mirror, plus the information always covering it, if we even get a mirror in view in the first place that is.

i loved this, please make more vr content

Well i didn't expect that ending !

to be fair gran tourismo 5 already had water on the windshield moving around according to the cars movement obviousley not as detailed but still

Thats some Driveclub rain right there, noice

I finally have a PC that can kinda run this, around 45 fps, and it is absolutely insane driver in the rain in vr, bonus points driving at night, makes it even crazier

Misha also says Hello to the Rebel Tree

Nords in the wet and the correct car can become a rally stage this video is evidence of that, looks fun and makes me want a PC even more

GT7 time trials in the rain gives this a run for its money

Modders, not only in AC, but in general - are so insane. They put so much effort and detail into what they do, and improve on the base game tenfold. I mean, just imagine Skyrim without mods. It would be a footnote.

Now we wait for Jimmy to take his Subie to Nurburgring irl

Jimmy's Computer go sound like a R34 after recording XD

Truly the best gem ever! And thanks, great video, Jimmer! It makes me happy

This game will never die...thank god. It's epic! Also...bring up the weather planner. You can adjust amount of rain, time of day and the difficulty of the rain driving. You can setup the weather for the day and it will run thru that setup...speed up time and run a whole days weather setup in an hour or whatever.

you got me looking into buying a wheel now jimmer dont make me spend loads of money now pls XD

0:44 It's your hair sylist asking if you've seen her guide dog.

welp. It happened. A racing game finally surpassed Driveclub in the graphics department. Insane detail, and immeasurable props to the modders for making something this awesome.

yeah the rain fx is a must have for this game. it looks amazing if your pc can handle it

This is the best windshield rain effect i saw since Driveclub. And its a f*cking mod.

I think there is a racing line dynamic, you just have to enable it in the settings
