assetto-corsa-telemetry-service VS list-of-assetto-mods

The source code is open-sourced so you could find it on my GitHub - https://github.com/iimetra/assetto-corsa-telemetry-service if you are interested.

I mean such a list already exists: https://github.com/RustyChest/list-of-assetto-mods/blob/master/good_mods.md

That's why quality mods exists here, they're modeled from scratch. But I see what you mean.

Default Kunos cars have been proven to be complete fantasy physics/no adherence to real world suspension data, unfortunately. Tire model was also somewhat fantasy. The engine was well equipped enough to emulate cars with IRL data ported in, so there was no excuse for their mistakes. There are mods out there that are higher quality than the cars that come with the game: https://github.com/RustyChest/list-of-assetto-mods/blob/master/good_mods.md

Thats a good overview of quality mods: https://github.com/RustyChest/list-of-assetto-mods/blob/master/good_mods.md . Also assettocorsa club is just a mirror of RaceDepartment.

About 95% of the public mods are trash, but the 5% that arent are more than great. This list pretty much sums up all the good mods: https://github.com/RustyChest/list-of-assetto-mods/blob/master/good_mods.md

The absolute baseline necessary mods are Content Manager (CM), Custom Shaders Patch (CSP) and SOL. There are many tutorials on YouTube on how to set them up. From there on this list gives a good overview of quality mods: https://github.com/RustyChest/list-of-assetto-mods/blob/master/good_mods.md

https://github.com/RustyChest/list-of-assetto-mods if you end up getting AC, I’d reference this to find good mods and avoid bad ones.
