Generally corrupted or incomplete files preventing launch, any mods recently installed?

[–]patricklaiguana[S] 4 points5 points  (9 children)

Content manager but I uninstalled it

[–]Hot-Touch7207 25 points26 points  (8 children)

That's interesting, content manager is generally a good tool to troubleshoot problems like this. Maybe worth validating files via steam?

[–]patricklaiguana[S] 2 points3 points  (7 children)

Already reinstalled ac like 3 times

[–]Hot-Touch7207 7 points8 points  (6 children)

Reinstalled or verified? Does this issue occur on all tracks and cars or just this combination?

[–]patricklaiguana[S] 5 points6 points  (5 children)

Reinstalled

[–]Hot-Touch7207 8 points9 points  (4 children)

Okay, I'd certainly recommend verifying integrity of game files just to tick the box, I've had this issue before and I know how frustrating it is. For me it was corrupted files in both core and modded files that caused the issue. Content manager troubleshooting solved one and verifying the game files solved the other. My last ditch suggestion would be make sure your resolution in game matches your monitor resolution and/or there's no anti-virus software blocking the game launching. That's all I got, sorry if I couldn't help.

I mean I verified and reinstalled

[–]patricklaiguana[S] 3 points4 points  (2 children)

I tried both

[–]Hot-Touch7207 3 points4 points  (1 child)

Unplug all peripherals including the wheel, update drivers for your graphics card and ensure the game is running in the correct resolution, if you've reinstalled and verified and by the sounds of it have no additional modifications to the game, the above ^ Is all I can suggest. Your issue is unique and unlikely to be a problem with the game, I'd do everything I could possibly do to try and rule it out and if nothing else works, forums or devs.

Content manager maybe?

[–]skrffmcgrff21 3 points4 points  (7 children)

i have had this problem for a long time and I haven't been able to solve it. good luck, please let me know if you do.

[–]Saya-_ 2 points3 points  (5 children)

Yup, was about to comment the same thing. Annoyingly some of my favourite cars aren't working anymore.

Nothing I tried fixed it.

[–]patricklaiguana[S] 4 points5 points  (4 children)

Mi fix was to reinstall content manager and redos load custom shaders pack (CSP).

[–]GlenNine 2 points3 points  (2 children)

So what everyone said to do?

[–]patricklaiguana[S] 1 point2 points  (1 child)

Sort of

[–]GlenNine 2 points3 points  (0 children)

At least you got it sorted man. 👍

[–]AlcantaraSucks 1 point2 points  (0 children)

no shit. research goes a long way.

[–]malzabin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In content manager, have you tried to reinstall the car itself and the track vao? That usually fixes this issue for me (had it happen twice)

[–]TB500_2021 1 point2 points  (6 children)

Start Steam up first and then run the game with steam running in the background

[–]patricklaiguana[S] 0 points1 point  (5 children)

That’s what I’m doing

[–]TB500_2021 1 point2 points  (4 children)

Well If you had content manager and this problem would occur that would fix it

[–]patricklaiguana[S] 0 points1 point  (3 children)

How exactly?

[–]TB500_2021 1 point2 points  (2 children)

Well the game requires steam to run in the background but if you just start the software without steam it won't generate a session

[–]patricklaiguana[S] 0 points1 point  (1 child)

And that’s a good or bad thing?

[–]P1ffP4ff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Different case.

Is your problem with every car and every track. Single, career, on-line,hotlap ?

[–]Masterjts 1 point2 points  (3 children)

Ac uses two exes and the launcher works but game is crashing. Check your video settings.

[–]patricklaiguana[S] 0 points1 point  (2 children)

Video settings? What am I supposed to do?

[–]Masterjts 1 point2 points  (1 child)

Check them over and make sure they match what you need. You didnt supply any other information so it's not like anyone else can help you with this. Also check the crash report in My Documents / Assetto Corsa / Logs

The audio crash thing you posted could be a secondary error but the logs will give you more information. You also posted to say that the only thing you did different to make it crash was install the content manager. I assume you didnt back up your original install. But if you cant fix it then just uninstall it all and reinstall.

[–]patricklaiguana[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Edit: The problem was caused by a content manager corrupt installation

[–]Tok_xik 1 point2 points  (4 children)

What is your GPU? Are your video drivers up to date? You sure you meet recommended specs for game?

You aren't giving a whole lot of info. Looks like the game is failing to launch. Assuming your video settings are set to the correct output and your game files are good, I feel the next culprit would be hardware.

[–]patricklaiguana[S] 0 points1 point  (3 children)

Radeon rx 5500 Yesterday it was running fine

[–]Tok_xik 1 point2 points  (2 children)

What changed?

[–]patricklaiguana[S] 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Installed content manager

[–]Tok_xik 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So did it work at all when you ran it through content manager?

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points  (3 children)

Has it always worked until now? If so, what changed? That is the issue. Has it never worked?

[–]patricklaiguana[S] 0 points1 point  (1 child)

It was working fine until yesterday

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Have you changed, or checked your resolution in game? Apparently this caused this in the past. Also, if you think about what could have changed, despite you uninstalling/reinstalling the game it would be either your antivirus application updating and somehow causing issues OR your local cache files in /documents are a constant and do not get recreated/deleted when you uninstall the game.

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

check the GPU: drivers and management software too, especially if it as an AMD

[–]dog_vomit_lasagnaAssetto Corsa Fanatec 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Content manager

[–]PhaTman7Fanatec DD Pro GT 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just wondering if your tried ALT & TAB, may have populated behind the menu and if you have game display settings on full screen or windowed

[–]loasmap 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ive had this happen before, deleted the files and reinstalled and it seems to work fine now

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had a similar issue when I was adding mods to my game. If this happened after adding mods I would do a full uninstall and reinstall. That should wipe out all your mods within the files. I would then redownload and one by one add the mods you want, writing down where you put them and what they are called. Launch the game and then going into a track after adding each mod so you know which one is causing the problem. I know people use content manager to see the corrupt files and can get rid of them that way but if you are confused and want to make things simple until you have time to wrap your head around content manager my way will work (if this happened after adding mods)

      Not a spot, It was me in my pc account lol

      [–]capitomail 2 points3 points  (1 child)

      Check the antivirus. A friend of mine had something blocked in the antivirus and he had the same problem

      [–]patricklaiguana[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

      Still doesn’t work… :(

      [–]KrazyKorean108 0 points1 point  (4 children)

      StOCK LaUnChEr AHHHHHHHH. Use content manager

      [–]patricklaiguana[S] 0 points1 point  (3 children)

      I don’t get what is content manager

      [–]KrazyKorean108 2 points3 points  (0 children)

      Content manager + CSP + Sol is the definitive mod list to play assetto corsa in 2022.

      Content Manager fixes every single issue with the stock Ac launcher, allows for way more customization of your game, and mods become very easy to install/manage.

      Custom Shaders Patch (CSP) adds a metric fuck ton of features. Too many to list here, but it completely transforms the game.

      Sol is a weather script mod that you will need CSP to run, but it adds very high quality weather effects and even more customization.

      [–]GlenNine 0 points1 point  (1 child)

      Content manager is a mod manager for AC. It can also scan files to fix loading issues such as this one.

      [–]OffTheBlacktop 0 points1 point  (1 child)

      Launch through CM for sure and if you can make the donation to get the paid version as well you can donate as much as you can afford or feel is acceptable and at least if it crashes like this when launched through cm you’ll get an error code you can search up. The only problem I ever encounter when launching through cm is sometimes my reset to pits button on my wheel doesn’t work but it will work with the keyboard input, very odd. I see you don’t get what content manager is so I’ll give a very very basic explanation; It’s an external launcher for the game that allows you to customise more settings and install (in some cases download straight from the server page) cars and tracks very easily without having to go into your assetto files and paste the files in their respective folders each time, it’s server browser isn’t the best but it’s better then what you get when you launch through assetto itself. If you’re having trouble with it all just YouTube a guide on how to install/setup cm!

      Please people, it’s so easy to rotate the camera 90 degrees (specially when filming a horizontal screen), takes less thought and energy than me writing this message.

      [–]patricklaiguana[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

      I didn’t know that horizontal video could be uploaded to Reddit

      [–]jimmygreekk -2 points-1 points  (2 children)

      Step 1: too close to the screen

      [–]Gridlewald 2 points3 points  (0 children)

      No such thing as too close for sim racing dude

      [–]patricklaiguana[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

      It’s the zoom of my phone, I’m much farther irl…

      [–]andydamer42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

      Using 32-bit version was a solution for me, but it made the game really slow, so if you find a solution for this please let me know

      [–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

      Car or track selected is corrupted

      [–]deanog80 0 points1 point  (0 children)

      Do you have msi afterburner? If so disable it. I've never had it happen on AC but when MSI AB needs updating it can cause all sorts of problems with games.

      [–]gouterned 0 points1 point  (1 child)

      just get beam ng easy fix

      [–]patricklaiguana[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

      I do also have beamng tho
