The Essential Apps

1

Content Manager

The essential replacement launcher for Assetto Corsa. It provides a huge range of features, an interface to manage Custom Shaders Patch, and it handles all mod installations automatically via drag-and-drop.

Did you know?

When you install Content Manager (CM) you also get Custom Shaders Patch (CSP). So if you have just installed Content Manager you can skip the next step. Consider supporting the developement of CM / CSP to get the latest versions and bug fixes.

Custom Shader Patch

The community-made engine upgrade. It adds dynamic lighting, rain, improved physics, grass, and VR optimizations. Simply drag the zip into Content Manager to install. If you don't want to run Content Manager (not recommended) you can install manually.

Pure / Sol

High-fidelity weather scripts made by the legend Peter Boese. Pure is the latest generation, offering incredible sky textures and dynamic cloud transitions. Sol is the free classic version which is no longer in development

Did you know?

While Sol is free, I highly recommend getting Pure. The performance and features are a significant step forward from Sol. If you're looking to recreatre the look from the high fidelity AC videos that you see online, you need to get Pure.
