    Hi guys,
    I'm new in this forum but I have been using Assetto Corsa for a couple of years now.
    I'm about to modify the geometry of a double wishbone suspension but I really can't understand which is the reference point of the coordinates. I can't find a clear anwer in any forum, looks like it's about the wheel axle, but where?in the wheel centerline or in the hub?
    For example WBCAR_TOP_FRONT = 0.305 , 0.028 , 0.088.

    What these values refer to?
    thanks to all

    cheers

    wheel centreline. To check just set a value to 0,0,0 and see where it is :)

    The content manager application is handy for this, as you can overlay the suspension lines onto the model of the car. Makes it very easy to see the changes immediately.
