2023 Assetto Corsa Mod Install Guide + Content Manager + CSP + Sol + Mods for Tracks & Cars

okay guys so welcome back again to the channel so on this video I'm gonna try and show you guys uh the easiest way possible to overhaul the looks and the functionalities of a set of Corsa so you can have an amazing experience with the game and mainly I'm talking here obviously about content manager which is uh the main thing that can help you overhaul the experience with the game but not only the experience but also the looks of the games because we have many many mods and I'm gonna show you here the most important one which is sold and at the end of the day obviously you might go from a stark looking game like this that you see right now here I just have reinstalled the game from a scratch to make this video and it is on stock everything is maxed out on the settings of the game and from now on I'm gonna show you guys so you can overhaul the looks and the functionalities of the game and of course try and enjoy it a little bit more okay without any further Ado let's move on let's hop into steam Library where you have downloaded the game and the first thing that I would suggest you do is go ahead to a set of course I right click on it then go to manage then go to Bros local files so it will take you to the root folder of a set of Corsa and we are going to need the root folder basically for everything installing mods installing content manager and everything else PP filters tracks cars everything that you might want to install later as additional mods so basically I would suggest you go to the main root folder then maybe make a shortcut of the root folder on your desktop so it will be a much so it will be a much easier for you to access the root folder you don't have to do the same thing again so basically go so basically go to the root folder then right click on it show more options if you are on Windows 11 and then go to send to and send it to desktop and now we have a root folder of the aceta Corsa on at the desktop now after you have done that the main thing that we are going to install of course is content manager you will have the link down on the video description so basically go to the link of content manager because this is the Holy Grail of everything that you can do in a set of Corsa in a much much easier way for everything as I already mentioned installing mods filters cars tracks setting up races with the game you don't have to go in the main game you can do everything everything uh regarding to the gameplay and regarding to the looks of the game from content manager is a really really powerful tool that can change your life about a set of Corsa and I would highly suggest you go for the paid version of the full version of content manager but if you go for the free version it's going to be fine you're going to have all the functionalities that you need with the game so go ahead download your preferred version free or a paid version if you want to help the community to develop a way more and then we can pick up from there okay so here we are I just downloaded my version of content manager I have the paid version but again you can get the free version is totally fine and after that we gonna pick up content manager and we're gonna extract it wherever you want in this case I'm gonna extract it here on the download folder and then of course we're gonna install content manager this is going to be the first step now after the first setup of content manager it will ask you about the rude folder so basically we click change and then you find the root folder of a set of Corsa which is going to be on your steam Library where you have the Steam games then you go into steam apps then common and there you will find the a set of Corsa root folder you click on it and you hit OK otherwise if you want to do it differently as I told you before you go to the root folder that you created the shortcut as I mentioned at the beginning then you click here on the address and then you copy the address and then you paste it here is basically the same thing but I'm pretty sure you can find this very easily then you can set an ID and name for your account these are not very important you can set to whatever you want and then we create obviously a shortcut to the start menu too to have it easily accessible and out of these plugins I would suggest you install 7-Zip if you if you don't have any other Zips if you you have WinRAR is going to be the same thing I already have winner but I also am going to install 7z because some mods are are preferring 7-Zip but most of the mods are going to work fine with 7-Zip or WinRAR they are both free so it doesn't matter then we hit on OK and now we are done this is the first menu that you are going to see and of course you're going to be greeted with the things that you can do in content manager okay now we are done with the installation of content manager of course we have tons and tons of thing things that we can explain here but this video there then is going to be too long uh but uh yeah basically this is the first step next obviously we need to go to settings then we need to go to custom shaders and we need to install CSP custom Shader patch so wherever you see about a circle a set of course a CSP this is what they mean custom shaders pad so basically we click on install and we wait for the installation to end it's uh going to be fairly fast in this case so there you go now we have we have installed the CSP now for the moment that I have made the video end of January 2023 the latest recommended and tested version is CSP or custom Shader pad match version 0.1.73 and this is going to be installed in automatic but unfortunately we need to keep in mind that many of the mods that you are going to install to a set of Corsa they usually need the latest version of CSP although it is untested it's going to work fine for example version 0.1 0.79 for me has worked great I didn't I didn't have any problem with all the mods that I have installed so to do that basically you just click on here and it will download it automatically and it will install the latest version of CSP after it is finished basically you just click on reinstalled current version just to be sure that it is installed but you will see it here or basically just move around go back to the settings again and now you will see that add the Shader patch version is the latest version that we have available right now okay now basically we are done with content manager and CSP and now we are ready to install our first big and a very very good mod which is going to be basically uh sold Seoul is an overhauling mod that can be used to overhaul the looks of the game so I highly highly recommend you go and install this one you will have the link on the video description for this one also for now the latest version is sold 2.2.5 you have the download link you have all the procedures on how you can install it and how you can use it it's um it's a fairly easy you just need to follow the steps for now we're gonna download the sold version 2.2.5 and I'm going to show you how you can add it to the game okay now so I downloaded mine here so 2.2.5 as of now when you're going to watch the video maybe it's going to be a new version of the game so there are two methods how you can install soul and basically any other mod that you're going to install to the game first I'm going to show you uh I'm gonna show you the manual version of the installation and this is required because unfortunately some of the mods tracks cars whatever they may be they need to do the procedure in manual mod and not in the easiest mod which is through content manager so it's better to know the manual mod and then we can I can show you of course also the easiest mod which is going to be a lifesaver for most people so after you open the file you're going to find a mods folder in here and here you're going to have all the links and the files that you're gonna download and the usage and everything else that you're gonna find about the latest sold version now what we need in this case is the soul 2.2.5 folder and then here we have these files after that we go again to the root folder of a set of Corsa as I told you at the beginning go to the shortcut that you created or go to the root folder and after you find the root folder it will look of course something like that and as you see these folders here are folders that are basically in the root folder of the game so what you need to do here basically just get these files and take them to the root folder but be careful not to put them inside of one of these folders but just take them to the main root for folder so I would suggest you go to a blank area like this and not to highlighted folder like this because they will end up into the folder and we don't want to do that basically go here to the main root folder and just set them down there and after you set them down there you will see the folders highlight this one this one this one this one basically sold it is now installed okay now to check if solar is installed correctly basically you go to the settings uh the settings tab in content manager then we go to custom shaders then we go to weather FX and you will see in here the controller script is set by Soul now here make sure and go and set the latest version of the Soul mine right now is Peter boy is a version 2.21 and I'm going to select this one and weather script of course is going to be the latest one that we just downloaded version 2. going to 0.5 as for the settings of the game after you install this I would suggest you go to a set of Corsa and adjust the settings according to your PC my PC can handle everything as I set up here uh basically with everything maxed out but you wanna you might want to go to to the rendering frequencies to one a face per frame or two faces per frame and if you see that your PC can handle it fine then you can go up as you like I prefer six frames per six faces per frame because my PC can handle it fine and of course the rendering distance is going to be maximum for me because again my PC can handle it fine now as for a soul again you go here and you will see default it's not changed yet although we set it on the custom Shader special csb but we need to go here to the filters and then here we can change the soul that the soul that you are going to use basically you can go whichever you prefer you can change this from the game also but you can change it from here to see uh to see if the version has worked or not basically then you can go to drive you select your car here from the menu if you want to get another car and hear from the menu if you want to get another track and for this comparison we're gonna go to Monza again so we can get the same comparison as the beginning of the game and we will see if you guys are gonna notice uh notice any changes or not for the car we're gonna get the Lotus as we had before this one and now we are ready to go weekend race we can practice we can do everything we want right from here and when you start on go it will launch the game immediately there you don't have to go to the menus of the game but before we do that we're gonna I'm gonna show you something else because of course if you watch my channel I am playing a lot in um in no hazy server and in that case I'm going to show you how you can uh install no hesit server basically track maps and uh track Maps or track mods and car mods to uh to a set of Corsa through a cm in this case and with that said now we jump to the easiest method that we have to install mods to the game through content manager because that's why we installed it basically when you download the mod like I did for example for soul here you just grab the zip file and you just drag it to content manager and when you drag it here you have these three lines you click on here you go here and you click on install now I don't have to do this because I have already installed it manually but this is the easy mode so if you see this then you click on install then you remove it and you should be good to go but if you get a mod then when you go here when you put it into cm and you go here and you see that you don't have an install button or you see an error it means that unfortunately that mod is not built for content manager and you have to do the installation manually like I showed you at the beginning so let's jump into the game and see how it looks after only these changes that I've made with uh installing the CM concentrator patch and the Soul mod for the looks of the game and see if it looks any different from the beginning of the game okay now and there you have it we are into the game we have now 3D uh 3D trees because unfortunately a set of Corsa has 2D trees and this is I think the first mod that has 3D trees built in so that's why I said at the beginning you should go for getting the paid version of cm and everything else to help support the community have support the creators so they can create this amazing looking filters and EV and Tracks Of course and everything else so we can make a set of course a nine year old game today we can make it look as better as the late easiest version of the games if not better than some games in many cases so there you have it now I'm going to show you a couple of things about the soul that you can use basically when you go in to the game you will see here I have all of the apps that you can use with the game but you see that we don't see Soul we don't see anything that we have downloaded and installed through cm and if you are in this situation it means that you have forgot something and now I'm gonna show you what to do so basically if you are into that kind of situation we just go to CM again go to settings and then go to set a Corsa and then go to apps this one here and make sure to have enabled python apps and developer apps selected and here we have the soul planner that we missed there we have the soul weather because we can change the weather we have the soul config also to change that and sold custom weather and now we are ready to go so when you go and install an app to set a course either manually or through C am an app you should come here settings a set of Corsa apps and make sure to enable it first and then you can use it within the game because we have many other apps that we can use we have filters we have dashboards we have many other stuff that you can use on the game so make sure to activate him here and then you can activate it within the game so now let's get back into the game and I'm going to show you a couple of things and then we're gonna move on on how to install uh the uh the no hazy server map okay so now we are back into the game again so now we go here and you will see that we have first sold config here we have sold custom weather custom planner you can add them here to the taskbar on the side so you will have them there so basically we can go here to Seoul and we can set at the time we can set the weather unfortunately we don't have a rain um we don't have rain on default you need to pay for the rain if you want to do it you can find it on Peter boyz's patreon for as little as as little as um as a one dollar per month so uh yeah you can do everything in a soul basically you can set the weather you can set puddles everything time of day you can customize everything again we're not gonna stop too much here then we have the soul custom weather which you can change here one by one it's very tedious so just make sure to read and you can change and and modify everything as you like here you have another Soul config version if you see that the performance is suffering you can go low medium high Ultra you can do basically everything save and you are good to go you can do everything from the game so this is the power of this is the power of content manager and the Soul config basically so now for that again you need to go to their Discord server of course I will leave I will leave the link in the video description and here you will have uh you you will find everything on how to download and play in no hazy server basically it's the same way as you downloading a track mod and downloading a car mod in this case we are gonna we are gonna get the uh the map mod and obviously the cars that you can use on this map so when you first come into the servers the first thing you need to do is go to the channel of downloads here and click on SRP because FDR is with payment if you want to play in FDR of course you can go for that you can do the payment and play with FDR but we're gonna go with a free version SRP as you see we have two links you can use either this one if this one doesn't work then you can use this one you don't need to use both of them so basically just click on the first one it's going to take you to the download file it's a little bit heavy around one gig for some one but not that much actually so we will wait until this finishes okay that one done now we go to the cars that we need to play in the game again and now it's very easy because before you needed to download everything manually the cars manually or separate and the traffic car separate so in here you just need to use one of these links whichever works if it when it doesn't work then I try the other one okay and the last thing to do for this server is when you finish with the SRP one we go to traffic so we can download the traffic cars again the same thing if this link doesn't work you can use this one not both only one of the links is the same thing again we go there and we download the file so let's let's wait for the download and we'll pick up from there oh okay so now we have all the three files that you see here let me remove the monster trees because we don't need it now again it's the same thing again as I showed you before we can do the manual Thing by going and dragging the files to the root folder of the game or where it is needed but this time we're gonna use the easy method so basically we're gonna grab the map and we're gonna take it to content manager go here and it will search first for the file and the install file and then it's going to show you if a content manager can install the the mod that you just downloaded or not so as you see for this one everything is fine new track should talk a Revival project this is the latest version for the moment we just click on install and it will install the map that we just downloaded okay and as you see it is finished we click on remove or complete so it does it doesn't stay here otherwise you can go here you you can download directly from here if you have the link from race department and yeah by the way if you want to download things race department is a great site to get everything sold and everything else mostly animal that you're going to need for a set of Corsa if you don't see the download button don't worry because unfortunately there is a downside well quoted if we can call it a downside you can create a you need to create an account before you can download but don't worry is everything free it's going to take you like 30 seconds one minute to create an account create an account on risk department and then you can download everything that is available on a race department now I showed you the easiest way but I did it once but if you want you can actually install multiple mods at a time you don't have to drag them one by one so now we're gonna try with the two of them so we're gonna go here again is gonna do the the checks if we have a download file and if the mod that we downloaded is going to be compatible with CM okay it did the check and again you don't have to go one by one but you can click on click on install if you have multiple mods for example I do this when I go to a site download a bunch of car mods for example I download all the car mods that I want and then I take them all to content manager hit install and install them at once with one click OK everything done so now you can play on the shoot toku Revival map so basically you just go here we go in this case to DLC we go to modes because this is a mod and you can select whichever you want now at this with this project you can play alone but unfortunately you cannot add traffic to this one because this is for the no hazy server to be able to play here you go to the no hazy you go to the server link SRP because we are in SRP free mode you choose your server when you where you want to join you're gonna it's gonna it's gonna tell you to to open content manager you hit that and it's gonna take you to the available cars that are gonna be free you can select the cars that are in white the cars that are in grade it means that they are not available someone else has got on them you get one of the cars you hit join and you are gonna join their server servers but again these are on aligned servers these are these are not single player servers if you want to play in the should talk Revival uh single player you go to the shoot toku Discord server again you're gonna have the link in the video description and here you have to download the version that says shibura pa traffic this one can be played alone and can be played with traffic so you can use this if you wanna do it so yeah basically that was it that's how you install content manager that's how you install mod that's how you enable them the apps and use them on the game if you find this guide helpful please consider subscribing also let me know what you want to see next of course there are many many things that we can explore here but these were it was just a based on how you can get started with a set of Corsa on content manager soul and everything else to make the game to make the game very very accessible to everyone very easy to control there's very easy to set up for playing and also for the looks of it I mainly am a sucker for graphics so I'm gonna of course take advantage of the custom Patcher and enable every settings that can make the game look better okay with that said that was it thank you very much again for being here again don't forget to subscribe Drive leave a like leave a comment leave a dislike if you want everything will be
