Las Vegas F1 2023 Extension 1.2.1 (TRACK VERSION 3.2) (Patreon)

.

[EDIT: UPDATE 1.2.1]

SPECIAL UPDATE FOR THOSE WITH BIG FPS DROP ISSUES

Big thanks to bynar010 for suggestions on these improvements 🙂👍

Some lights fix to save FPS

Some materials optimization

Flickering reduction on long distance meshes

.

[EDIT: UPDATE 1.2]

AFTER A LONG AND SLEEPLESS NIGHT OF WORK, EXTENSION IS FINALLY COMPATIBLE WITH TRACK VERSION 3.2 !!! 😅

Everything in the extension has been updated and relocated to fit the redesigned layout and I also have completely redesigned walls physics to better fit the visuals

If you have an old version installed, I highly recommend to completely remove the lasvegas23 folder, to install version 3.2 from the provided link and then to install the new extension 1.2

Please note that I have no intention to follow every update of this track until it has a more persistent design. This process has been very time consuming and other tracks extensions are coming soon (yes even during the winter break 😉)

.

This weekend, F1 Circus has never deserved its name more than it does and goes to Vegas for the first ever Las Vegas Grand Prix!

So I think we can all agree that the Las Vegas layout is "probably" not the best track of the season 😉

Even so, a lot of work have been put in this extension to make it at least a little bit closer to the real one.
Is it perfect? Surely not!
But it's almost the best we can have this weekend with this mod without recreating a complete new track and I am pretty sure it should be probably fun to drive with friends

.

So here we go, a huge amount of new things in this new Layout 2023:

• 2023 billboards
• 2023 animated boards
• 2023 fence boards
• 2023 brake markers
• 2023 grounds sponsors
• 2023 Pit names
• New Sphere animations
• Updated Rolex Clock model
• DRS Lines
• New bridges
• LOTS of new buildings
• Monorail track
• New grandstands
• New clubs
• Updated standing zones
• Updated lights
• New VAO Patch
• and more...

Enjoy! 😉

[Issues with some CSP versions]

This track extension has been tested and designed for CSP version 0.2.x

It can work with previous versions but if you have some issues it is recommended to use the latest one. You can get it there:
https://acstuff.ru/patch/

.

[FPS Saving]

If you need more FPS, you can try to disable two things in file
[layout_f1_2023\extension\ext_config.ini] :

1. disable additional track light by setting
[INCLUDE: ../../common/ext_config-pyyer-lasvegas-lights.ini] to ACTIVE  = 0

If that doesn't improve things,

2. disable new sphere animation by setting  
[INCLUDE: ext_config-pyyer-lasvegas-sphere-2023.ini] to ACTIVE  = 0

.

[Edit v1.0.2]

Still working on the purple texture issue,
I haven't been able to reproduce but v1.0.2 could solve this
(updating CSP to 0.2.0 would solve this also)

.
