Assetto Corsa – More Porsche DLC previews
Kunos Simulazioni’s Licensing Project Manager Marco Massarutto published some more teaser previews of the upcoming Porsche DLC for Assetto Corsa.
The new screenshots show us what looks to be the rear of the new 2017 Porsche Panamera (top image) and the rear angle of the previously teased 1974 Porsche 911 Carrera 30 RSR.
The 3rd screenshot shows us the rear fan of a Sunoco Porsche 917/30. Previously, Kunos Simulazioni has introduced community created models as officially licensed content for Assetto Corsa. While we are not a 100% sure, this seems to be the case for the Porsche 917/30 as it was created by community 3D modeler the_meco. (Video Below) (Update: Video removed by uploader not long after this post. What’s going on? … We noticed most of the the_meco Porsche 917/30 related videos are removed. Probably for licensing reasons. )
Assetto Corsa V1.8
Furthermore, Kunos Simulazioni’s lead programmer Stefano Casillo is working hard on the Assetto Corsa V1.8 update. In one of his latest Tweets, he reported that he has made some good progress optimizing the performance of the Assetto Corsa game engine, resulting in a very impressive FPS increase. Assetto Corsa V1.8 is announced to roll out on August 26.
The Porsche branded Assetto Corsa content will become available as exclusive DLC content on both the PC and forthcoming console editions of Assetto Corsa. Porsche A.G and Kunos Simulazioni agreed to a collaboration and will create 2 high-quality DLC packs that will contain a mix of street legal and racing models of the prestigious German sportscar brand.
We eagerly anticipate some more announcements to learn which other models will be featured in the Porsche DLC for Assetto Corsa.
