A3PP - Beautiful PPfilter for Assetto Corsa - Updates (2024)

I'm back

• Dec 8, 2023

• Dropped Sol support and removed old config app for Sol (you can still download older versions. it may still work but I can't guarantee about visual quality)
• Removed color grading and changed tonemapping to Agx (requires CSP 0.2.0+)
• Added reflection level boost at night (enabled by default; can be disabled inside Pure config - PP section)
• Enabled Pure Ambient v2 by default (I suggest increasing VAO values to compensate bright environments)

I wanna thank everyone who donated to me in these months waiting for a new release. Hopefully there will be more releases in the future as I'm exploring new Pure features.

No updated A3PP in these months

• Oct 1, 2022

Just a quick update: there won't be a new version today (or in the following days), as I'm currently busy with stuff. There should be no problem with latest Pure preview, but if there are any, feel free to reach out to discussion tab so I can fix them in that case.

Thanks

FOR SOL USERS ONLY: Fix blue tint on A3PP and A3PP_Photo

• Jun 8, 2022

I'll recommend also to stick to March 2022 update if you don't have latest Pure installed. From now on, I can't gurantee that A3PP will look the best on Sol as I'm focusing on Pure development.

Thanks for reading

Supports Pure 0.68+

Changelog (only for Pure):
- Support for Pure 0.68+ versions

Day look needs to be refined but it's very good in night scenes.

I wanna also mention that Sol part of the filter is definitive. I don't expect any update on this as I will focus on getting Pure support right.
