Getting started on Street Corsa

Install

Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000

You need

Windows 10 or 11, 64-bit
Assetto Corsa, with some cars installed (the game uses your cars; none come with it)
Custom Shaders Patch 0.2.11 or newer for the races (get it here, or through Content Manager)
For the 3D garage: Visual C++ runtime (x64) and DirectX runtime

The installer tells you which of these it found.

Setup

Run StreetCorsa-<version>.msi. No admin rights needed.
Point it at your Assetto Corsa folder (the one with AssettoCorsa.exe).
Done. Start the game from the desktop or the Start menu.

Windows may warn that the installer is unknown. Click More info → Run anyway.

People who talk back

Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000

Street Corsa can use your own AI to give the town a voice. You type what you say, and the person answers in their own words. It’s optional and off by default. Without it the game plays the same, only nobody talks back: the junkyard’s Haggle and the buyers who answer your ad still bargain, by the game’s own rules.

What it does

Sellers. Go to see a car from the paper and the seller comes out to the curb. On a part ad, Call the seller. Ask about it, then haggle.
Salesmen. On a dealer’s lot the salesman comes over as you arrive, talks up the lot and tells you about each car you pick.
Rivals. Talk to a rival at the Diner or at the Cruise curb. They know your car part by part, their own, and every race you’ve had.
Buyers. When someone answers your ad, Call the buyer and talk them up. Push too hard and they walk.
Clerks and machinists. Ask the parts shop for “something cheap that fits my car” and the clerk finds it on the shelves. Ask the machinist which work gains the most.
The town’s words. The ads in the paper, its stories and the Diner’s street talk get rewritten in the setting’s voice.
Portraits. With ComfyUI, tick Paint new rivals’ portraits with ComfyUI and each new rival gets a picture of their own.

People remember you: what you talked about, the prices you named, what you bought from them and sold them, the races you won and lost, a pink slip. Insult a seller and they’ll be sore next time. Beat a rival and they’ll bring it up.

Problem	Fix
The game asks for the Assetto Corsa folder	Pick the folder `AssettoCorsa.exe` is in. To change it later: Settings → Assetto Corsa folder.
“Runtimes Missing” or no 3D	Install the Visual C++ and DirectX runtimes, restart.
Race won’t start: Custom Shaders Patch is not installed	Install CSP.
“Race Never Started”	The race mode failed to load in AC. Nothing was lost. Update CSP; `Documents\Assetto Corsa\logs\custom_shaders_patch.log` says why.
Warning sign on the main screen	Click it: Custom Shaders Patch is missing or too old. Update it in Content Manager.
Race won’t start: races need 0.2.11 or newer	Update CSP in Content Manager (Settings → Custom Shaders Patch).
“Assetto Corsa is already running”	Close Assetto Corsa (and Content Manager’s game), try again.
“Mod Problems”	A mod is broken or too old. The rest of the game works; update or remove that mod.
Car won’t race	Open Repairs: it says why (no fuel, broken engine, missing wheel…).
No police ever	Install a police car in Assetto Corsa.
