Assetto Corsa Skin Transfer App V1.1 11/06/2017


This app allows you to use custom skins exclusively with SRS.
Please note that this app is optional, therefore not required to use SRS. If you enter a session where other users use custom skins and you do not have this app, you'll see the other cars with a plain white skin.

Requirements:

• Skin folder must be named after your SRS username but on lower caps, no accents and spaces replaced by an underscore '_'
  • Ex: username:Henrique Alves      skin folder: henrique_alves
    
  • Ex: username:João Paço               skin folder: joao_paco
    
• Skin size must be lower than 10MB
  

Installation & Usage:

• Extract the zip file to Assetto Corsa root folder, '.../steam/steamapps/common/Assetto Corsa'. Older version does not need to be removed.
  
• Activate the App ingame on the menu 'Options' > 'General' > 'UI Modules'
  
• Skin transfer begins 5 minutes before the session hour and ends at the end of qualy. Outside this period the app will return 'Skin Transfer Unavailable'
  
• It will work online and offline (practice, race weekend etc...) meaning that you can use those 2 minutes between the 'please wait' and 'join' to upload your skin.
  
• [New on V1.0] The app now gives you more information of what is going on and also gives you voice messages:
  
•  
  • 1 step - your skin: if you don't use a custom skin as specified above, the app will display on the 1st line that you are not using a custom skin and moves on for the downloads. If you are using a custom skin, the app will display if the upload was successful, if the skin was updated or if the upload failed due to size limit.
    
    
  • 2 step - downloads: the app will check the skins to download and download them as soon as they are available. The app stops (timesout) before the end of qualy. If all skins are downloaded before the app timesout, you'll get a success message and the app will ask you to press the new restart button in order to load the skins. if someone skips the race or tries to use a skin larger than 10 MB the the app will timeout, if during the process new skins are downloaded, it will tell you to press the restart button to load the new skins, otherwise, it will tell you to carry on.

So I just rename the folder of the skin I choose with my name, right?

[Tomasz Sajdak]

I have a problem with this app. First off, when I have it turned on I do not see my own paintings, even though I have written that they have been sent. Secondly, I do not see paintings of opponents (special ones) they as I am white.
Here is my video from yesterday race where you see what I mean. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dx0va5xRVW0

did you get the transfer complete message? did you left the server and reenter?

[Tomasz Sajdak]

I dont remeber but I think I did that. But dont worry, from the next day everything is working. Therefore great job guys.

[Piermario Riva]

transfer incomplete 0/1 why?

[simracingsystem]

someone did not upload their skin or missed the race

[Alessandro Lucato]

I'm not an uploader... anyway, do I need to activate the app while in game to download other's skins or does it run silently in the background doing its work when intended?

also...
"It will work online and offline (practice, race weekend etc...) meaning that you can use those 2 minutes between the 'please wait' and 'join' to upload your skin"
This is not clear to me and maybe to others so maybe can help asking:
Does it mean that if I have to upload a skin I can do it from an offline practice session (so to have the interface) and then exit the practice session and join SRS server... just to gain those 2 extra minutes for the upload operation?

it runs in the background, but to see the skins you need to leave en reenter the server.

yes
