Let me know of any errors or amendments you would like Roo.Car link need to add Ferrari Patch https://drive.google.com/file/d/1pcd-NKZq8OkrXIRjWbg3FU9rictQ4xqd/view
Is that the final car download link ? Should we limit it to 4 or 5 cars to make the size smaller or remove some that are really similar ? if could get it down to at least 10 or 12 I could then put 2 or each on the server
How will qualifying work for 2nd 30 min race, just random, I don't have any fancy way like wally to set the grid from previous races and would take me ages manually

Do u mean Oesterreichring 70s as round 7 or 8 or to replace monza as round 6 ?round 8, please Phil.
As an aside, it is every sim racer's duty to learn Nords. :) It's not really that hard.
Had to research a bit to find out what circuits Group 5 cars raced at and came up with Sebring. I don't recall ever racing this circuit in AC? I gave it a try in the Lancia BetaMontecarlo and it is good fun. Needs some learning but good flowing track.Thanks Gratulin, sounds good, I like new tracks 8)

round 7?
I just downloaded the cars plus the patch and the hockenheim track, installed and worked no probs.
Thanks Phil and Imp , good news :)I just downloaded the cars plus the patch and the hockenheim track, installed and worked no probs.
Awesome, I took the offending car off the server and it seems to have fixed it :) I am glad I like easy fixes
gr5_porsche _935_k3
This extra space ^ is the culprit. :o
Patch incoming.
PATCH (https://drive.google.com/open?id=1pcd-NKZq8OkrXIRjWbg3FU9rictQ4xqd) is updated.I am getting a checksum error, only when I select the BMW M1.
---IMPORTANT---
Please find this folder "gr5_porsche _935_k3" and delete it from your install.(Note the space after porsche)
Avoid confusing this folder "gr5_porsche _935_k3" and this folder "gr5_porsche_935_k3".
Iff you have the folder with the space in it then you need to delete it.
MASTER download is updating now so new users will not find the faulty folder in their install.
But all users still need to install the MASTER and PATCH downloads.
::) :P :-[ :-\ :o ??? :P :-[ :( :-[
From the logs, for CAR: 5 which I think is the M1
WARNING: Received negative ballast (0.000000) ignoring
WARNING: Received negative restrictor (0.000000) ignoring
Need to rejig the server to fix this I'd say.
but isn't negative 0 still 0 ?No such thing as negative or positive zero.
Does or can the Server spit out a log file?
If it does then restart the server, try to join with the M1 then upload the log here.
I'll run some tests on my own server tomorrow.
If some one could try to join my server before applying today's patch and then after installing today's patch and let me know how it went.Found no data.acd files. Could not join server selecting BMW M 1, applied patch , still got checksum when I selected BMW M 1 :'( :'( :'(

ok just deleted the data folder for the M1, let me know how it goes nowworks now :)
>:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:(It might be only people who are getting an error for the M1 who cannot see it. I can connect and I think I could see you when you on just now.
Too good to be true, now it appears the M1 is invisible.

I think you are right, I could see you but not Seanus :-\>:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:(It might be only people who are getting an error for the M1 who cannot see it. I can connect and I think I could see you when you on just now.

..... Nissan,s central mirror & steering wheel not showing in cockpit for me....
silly question, but do we need to register anywhere for this or just turn up on the night?
Dave O, can you join my server with the M1? It's named 'G0D Testing'
silly question, but do we need to register anywhere for this or just turn up on the night?
Nah. Just make sure you have kept up with all the updates and jump right in the deep end.
I'm not able to join the server. No error message. Download master and patches multiple times deleted and re-installed.
Tried with and without password. Are we using PW?
Do we need to remove the cars that were removed from the server also?
Sorry Phil, my PC finally died. Looks like I’ll be MIA for a little while.
Have fun tonight guys.
How are we going to determine who gets which car for each race?You need to nominate which car you want GW.
1st in 1st served?
I can just see a problem where you could spend a few hours practicing and working on a setup for a particular track only to find that when you join the server someone else has that car.
I suppose you could nominate which car you want a few days before and then the server could be set up to have the correct amount of that car available.
You need to nominate which car you want GW.

Also Seanus, I seem to think you said there was a version of this track with drive through bollards at the chicanes.
I know my 7. ;)That is a good idea , I have not thought that far ahead :(
Seeing as we have to choose each week, maybe these posts should be in the Salzburgring thread. ???
Quote from Seanus "And Roo' the OP and race thread have the correct link to the improved track. Members better check they have this version" sorry Seanus but the linked track still has solid bollards.
Thanks Seanus, my misinterpretation.Quote from Seanus "And Roo' the OP and race thread have the correct link to the improved track. Members better check they have this version" sorry Seanus but the linked track still has solid bollards.
I'll need to double check the link.
However the bollards are still there but instead of being concrete filled 44 gal drums they are now like a half buried wrecking ball. So you still hit something if you misjudge the chicane. This prevents cutting as it often launches the car into the air bust doesn't destroy your race or others following who would run up your arse if you came to a stop. The tyres at the edge of the sand trap are also the same so you can overshoot the chicane and still get back onto the track whereas before these tyres stopped you dead.
I did this as it was essential for offline racing with AI as it is impossible to stop the AI cutting corners, especially on the first lap, and it normally ended in a clusterfuck at the first chicane.
Thanks, all we need now is a new track for round 5 and I am not sure how fun Nordschleife will be, how about Silverstone 67 or something ?All good thanks Seanus and Phil, I can join with the new version of the mod.
awesome that's a good trackI think this one is better Phil ( but I need to double check)
is this the one you mean ?

Brno as well as Oschersleben is getting too modernish for these cars.Norisring is ok, but flat and and a bit too short maybe :).
Go for the complete opposite to Nords and use the Norisring. ;D ;D ;D
Or we could go across the Atlantic and use Roads America/Atlanta or Watkins Glen.
Has been a racing track since 1930s and in current form since 1950s so I think it also fits the current period ;D
I lied :-[Has been a racing track since 1930s and in current form since 1950s so I think it also fits the current period ;D
Current layout was first used in 1987. :o

Can I reserve a BetaMontecarlo II please Phil. I think I might just follow Bacchulum around this season.
