None of which had the rear Swing Axle.
Two of which used my converted model. (not that I mind)
And one that claims AI made the physics!
So redid the conversion from scratch, LODs are native.
Slicks for '72, Dunlop treaded for '71
Per skin driving lights.
Bonnet and Boot open.
High and Low beam.
Specced as from https://www.rotesau.co.za/the-amg-300sel-6-8-rote-sau
Three different revisions on the rear suspension.
I got distracted whilst making these so I'll release them now but they may be under done.
Using this skin and editing the model to recreate the 908 LH used at the 1972 Le Mans.
I needed to edit the skin to fit the mew model but with the AO burnt into the skin this is close to impossible.
Will have to do until a more proficient (than me) skinner might choose to take it on.
Usual physics tweaks and CSP.
Also mention things I got wrong so I can fix them.

Single screen, finned and not.
NEW for this config' only, version 20240710: Tweaked UV mapping.
or Bookmark this server as you will often find little treats there.
With the VAO patch that is AO on top of AO on top of AO and if you use one of the realtime AO shaders from CSP that equals 4xAO. That oughta keep at least one of my detractors happy.
version 20240629: Replaced blue carpet with plastic tarp. Blended the skins AO some, far from perfect.
version 20240710: COSMIC DeDion rear suspension with Camber and adjustable Toe.
If you were to build a real car using the physics parameters of an AC car would it still be practical to drive?
You will find in most cases the answer would be no.
From more modders than you would expect and indeed Kunos themselves.
(The biggest culprit would be the springs falling out!)
Isn't this the minimum you would what from the simulation? AC can never replicate a real car as a simulation will never run anywhere near realtime. Let alone the compromises needed for a game.
But if your input to the Sim would not work in real life are you really simulating anything?
For every example of a user saying the physics are shit I can find a mod with physics that in the real world would be absolutely insane, that is lauded for its realism.
I hope to pass this test with my mods but I've done a shit tonne over the years and as I never finish anything you will find a lot that don't.
But if you happen to know of errors which may be of importance please point them out.
Please refrain from saying the physics are crap or the FFB is lacking, or god forbid harping on about IP.
ps FFB is set from the front suspension geometry. Apart from the overall force level it can not be adjusted by the mod maker, unless they have some wiggle room in said geometry.
I last mentioned this when I just so happened to get the front geometry entirely wrong, in the now deprecated Formula Fords, so the point was somewhat lost.
The original version, as found on Race department, represents the years '52 and '53.
The original version had only 10mm of front suspension travel and zero near infinite roll stiffness at the rear, and a few other things besides. (Doh! made a bad typo there)
I communicated this to the team, and unless they are as bad at communicating as I am, they seemed to shrug off those fatal flaws as unimportant. (a bit of both I suspect)
Again with the baked in AO, which belongs in the '00's, the skins don't quite work, you can see the previous exhaust shadow above.

Bazza's release made me reflect on how awful my conversion was so I redid it from scratch.
Mostly Bazza's physics with (un)necessary tweaks and fixes by me.
version 20240625: Fixed rear glass
NEW: Fixed transparency. Engine has no Rev limiter but added Valve bounce so it doesn't grenade.
Bits and bobs updated.
Trackday modified, with a Cyclecar style rear end, cable stayed central pivot live axle, open diff.
One almost correct skin with some fictitious ones.
Wings, Diveplanes, and Badge are switched with CSP.
CM Showroom will show them all at once, but in game and previews generated with CSP on, will look correct.
(Any other skins you may find in the wild are from the earlier cars with different chassis' and bodywork)
version 20240509: Badges on nose
[DOWNLOAD] Fixed the link.
version 20240508: added animated rear suspension.
