Ok I think it's over time for this thread. 

I'll list apps here, and update the first post with anything we deem worthwhile.

I ask for your help, guys, please post apps that you use and find good;  You can also notify me in this thread if you know of an update or change the app, and I'll try to keep up with it.  We can come up with categories later, if there's a lot.

If you want to "submit" an app, please provide all info you can in the format that I only need to copy & paste; I'm a lazy bastard and I don't want to do it :)

Danny Giusa Tyre Temp v1.5.1
Features:
  • temperature display, temperature range is automatically adapted to tyre type
  • dirt display
  • wear display
  • temperature range display for one lap
  • pressure display
  • selectable tyre type (if the tyre is not recognized correctly by the app)
  • different app styles (normal and tiny), accessable by a double click on the app

We just had a couple of races last night in the F40s...MAN those things are INSANE good fun!
Please, run the next season with them - mixed with other fezzas, Mclaren, whatever comes close.  But make the F40 base one of the slower options, please, as I'd really-really like to drive it :)

News / Is Illegally Downloading A Movie Really Theft?
« on: August 08, 2014, 09:19:38 AM »
http://www.gizmodo.com.au/2014/08/is-illegally-downloading-a-movie-really-theft-and-who-should-pay-to-stop-piracy/

Downloading a movie free is NOT a theft.

I think this is a great article, worth reading, and it's not too long either. 
It also goes into why the ISPs shouldn't pay for it.

Here's the gist of it:
Quote
Theft is when you permanently deprive the owner of their property, like stealing a DVD from a shop. Once you’ve stolen it, it’s gone and the shopkeeper can’t sell it to someone else.

When you download an episode of Game of Thrones without paying for it, you’re infringing the copyright and committing a civil wrong, but you don’t stop the owners of GoT from selling another copy of the episode to a paying customer, such as me.

Assetto Corsa / New series & forum changes
« on: August 06, 2014, 09:03:15 AM »
Hello chaps, as you can see there's two new sub-forums here now.
All things regarding the tuesday nights - the main series - are now in the separate section. 
There's also this new, hopefully exciting section for Bruce to play with, that's the casing of the upcoming thursay nights fun series.

I'll leave the details to Bruce.

Let's have fun!

Assetto Corsa / Freejoin on practice server
« on: June 27, 2014, 01:29:05 PM »
You need Freejoin to get on the practice server (this way anyone with the password can join, reserves included)
Here it is:
http://www.kegetys.fi/freejoin/

Installation is as simple as it gets, unpack the files in your steam/steamApps/common/AssettoCorsa folder

You can backup some file there (in readme), but it's not really necessary; you can always ask steam to validate your installation, and that'll replace the file(s) that were changed.   

You'll probably have to re-install this app after upgrades to AC.
