BLM Lights for Assetto Corsa

What this mod does

BLM Lights is an app by Blamer, who also made BLM Car, for controlling track lighting in Assetto Corsa with Custom Shaders Patch. It’s really handy in night races: you can switch the track lights on, change their level and tweak brightness without leaving the session.

What it offers

• Turn track lights on and off and switch between three levels on tracks set up for it.
• Brightness settings for the track and cars, vertex ambient occlusion, digital flags and wet asphalt.
• Editable keyboard shortcuts for every function.
• A compact user interface and a developer mode for creating or editing track lights.
• Presets per game mode and an option to disable it on specific tracks.

Requirements

The author says you need Custom Shaders Patch, without specifying a version. The settings are in Content Manager, under Settings, Apps, BLM Lights. The author has videos covering how to use it, how to create lights and the debugging tool.

Known issues

The latest version is from May 2020 and the page doesn’t confirm compatibility with current CSP versions. Some users said it didn’t appear in their app list or that the game crashed outside compact mode.
