Hello All,

Can you explain me how create data.acd when you don't have file data.acd
What is the solution for create data.acd for new mod ?

Problem when i use reimport :
I have problem : c_structs 1 : "body" "<"
Error : Invalid command "body" or arguments -1 at line 9

Best regards,

If the file data.acd doesn't exist it means it's not a content expected to be packed, so it's not an official car.

You do NOT need to create data.acd:
1) the game works with the extracted files in a folder called "data"
2) data.acd is 4 times bigger than the archived content

Regarding that other problem, probably you are using a very old version of quickbms.
Download the latest one:

There is something that probably I'm unable to understand...
Ehmmm, do you know that the data.acd archives of Assetto Corsa can be fully extracted and decrypted with my assetto_corsa_acd.bms script?

yes , but my problem is not to extract data.acd but create data.acd for my own mod .
Because in assetto corsa if you have only folder data with all script is it possible to enter in serveur with modification of files = cheat
The only solution is to have data.acd on serveur and in mod .

I have send you my folder "data" for explain me if is it possible to compact all .ini and LUt in data.acd .
I see is it possible to extract all file data.acd and recompact in data.acd after modification, i think is it the same with my files but i did not understand how?

Cheers and many thanks

The current acd rebuilder script creates the old data.acd but the difference between the old and new acd files are just the additional 2 32bit values at the beginning of the new ones.
Nothing else.

I have only one sample here so I can't guess what's the meaning of these 2 fields and if you can use any value in them.
What's sure is that they are totally useless to the extraction.
32bit 1: 0xfffffba9
32bit 2: 0x000a4691

Maybe they are the version and build of the game, don't know and so I can't add these fields to my script.

is it possible to open "data.acd" to other car, extract files , replace all by my files and re export in "data.acd" ?
Version of game 1.1.1

aluigi, posted Sat Mar 14, 2015 5:43 pm (3881)

Yes it's possible to recreate the data.acd of one of the standard cars but in version 1.1.1 there are 8 bytes of data.acd that I can't recreated because I don't know what they represent (what I said in the previous post) so the new data.acd probably doesn't work in 1.1.1.

ok thanks for your answer .

aluigi, posted Sat Mar 14, 2015 6:30 pm (3883)

If you have 3 or 4 original data.acd, upload them and I will check if I can guess those 8 bytes.

They are the old version so my rebuilder script works perfectly.

Just a reminder, you can find some explanations about how to use the script here:

Is it possible to explain step by stef process, use quick bms , quick bms 4gb, reimport ? use plugin assetto corsa acd or rebuilder acd?
For not english person is very complicate to understand, i understand for extract data.acd and have all files .ini in folder but after modify files not understand for build new data.acd with new files ..

Did you have test with data.rar i have send you at Sat Mar 14, 2015 3:43 pm ?

aluigi, posted Sun Mar 15, 2015 12:57 pm (3893)

It's very simple:

• launch quickbms.exe
• select assetto_corsa_acd_rebuilder.bms
• select the original data.acd file (don't worry, it will be not modified)
• select the folder where are located all the files (so inside the "data" folder)
• you will receive a success message
• go from Windows in the data folder
• you should see a new sub-folder with the same name of the car
• go in this sub-folder and you will see the file data.acd.rebuilt (for example "c:\path\game\ks_mclaren_p1\data\ks_mclaren_p1\data.acd.rebuilt")
• that's the new file that you can rename and move over the original data.acd

For anyone else interested in the rebuilding of data.acd for the Dream Pack I have updated the script with a "ACD_VERSION" variable that you must set to 1 for creating the new version of data.acd used by this pack.

Pearaps need new version of rebuilding ? i did not know?

aluigi, posted Sun Mar 15, 2015 3:44 pm (3900)

I don't know why that happens.
The script has ever worked perfectly and nobody reported issues.

You can try to edit the script by setting ACD_VERSION to 1 at line 27 but it's totally useless because the files you provided in the previous posts were the old version and not the new one.

Regarding the kn5 files:
I have just updated the script to version 0.1.2 for dumping also the last part of the archives that wasn't covered by the script.
It's just the raw dump of the remaining bytes, nothing else.

yes i have the new one,but it don?t work proper!since the update 1.1.2 i cannot extract the acd files right.

I mean, post the original data.acd and the exact name of the folder (EXACT name because that's the key of data.acd).
