oh I'd love to jump on with you guys - I'm about as experienced as you guys are :)

1772
even the "recording & auto-saving full replays" is on my list before tyre model upgrades...

This was a fantastic night, gents, I've really enjoyed the fun with you all.
I wish everyone had a better skin and we all had it - it cracks me up seeing Mary's skin every time :D

Well, I've never seen this track before and I'm actually thrilled to learn another track.  I've seen too much of the same old tracks I feel :)

1778
I reckon you're right Glen.
Yeah, that's a perfect example of these stupid lag warps. T1 is not the time nor place for that to happen! I wonder if that's even worth posting up in the AC forums somewhere as an example of this warping. Those size jumps are pretty crappy. NKP was a lot smoother than that.

I'd definitely post it and raise it as an issue.   If there's that much lag from someone, then their car should become a ghost for a while, IMO.

I thought the 6x wear worked well. The 5x was barely noticeable, and the car was still quite drivable at 90, just a bit more slippery in the last couple of laps.
yeah, but the funny wear-curve of the tyre made things a bit even, for most of the race.   If it was more linear it'd have been even more interesting :)

1780
I reckon some of the T1 accidents can be attributed to the braking point being something *else* rather than the normal one, thus people without specific "starting practice" may rely on the cars around to show them where to brake.  (I'm guilty of this, sometimes, too)  But also sometimes you get such a good start that you can gain a position or two - maybe even three - to T1, and that's a big gain. 

A rule that says no overtaking under braking is great in theory, but a tricky one to police; where is the braking point? What if my car is much better under braking, etc... 

Now, a "no overtaking till T1" rule, may solve our T1 issues, but won't it remove part of the racing?  Namely most of the starting.  Which will be even more interesting in cars with more power and less traction. 

I know very well how annoying it is when someone removes half of the field (or even just you). It'd bad. Very bad.
But this happens towards the back/mid of the pack, 90% of the cases.  This is due to the extreme slowdown of the train of cars, as it's always mentioned by Wally.     So I reckon some alternative "solution" maybe needed, in fact praccy and heavy penalties might just do it.

I'm just putting my thoughts down, I cannot think of a solution that I'd say is good enough, yet.

sounds good.

1782
Yes, the replay.ini says 500.   Can you set it any larger?
That's the limit, but my replay files end up being smaller than that, and include the entire race. Have you checked this recently?
yes, right now :)
And the 2nd nurbi replay is 505,809,791 bytes, so it's close but only 482MB, yet it's missing the first lap or so.

I'm always evil enough to help.  Sorry I mean happy and helpful, that is.

We should ask for the replay, cut to size ~30s before the accident.

The prollem, however, is that currently it seems the replay isn't long enough to contain the 1st lap. mine certainly doesn't.

Another thought: it'd be good in cases like this to get multiple sides of the accident, because a bit of lag can change things dramatically. So I recommend everyone to save their replays religiously if we're going to judge based on replays.

Edit: and we need at least one more person; if the complaint is against me, my judgement may not be completely impartial :D
