Title: Friends Leaderboard
Post by: Wally on May 16, 2014, 09:52:01 PM
There is a friends leaderboard app that you can display in hotlap practice mode, which ranks you against the times of your steam friends (provided you have penalties turned on). Send a few steam friend requests around, and let's get some times up there!

I'm mastersonwally in steam.

A quick search shows 4 Lemmy Caution's, don't know which is you (best to send me an invite).
I think I'm the only Bacchulum. ;)

How do you turn penalties off ? Hate that slowdown when just circulating for fun and just get a wheel slightly off track.

In Summary (just before you go to lap), read the settings.
I think it's the far left column that has Penalties, click that and you can adjust the settings. ;)
I don't know how to get to it before the Summary screen.

Yep, there are about 10 people on Steam with Ysu in their name and none of them look to have played AC?  Maybe I'm doing it wrong...

It's simply Ysu, not "in the name" :)
But no worries, I'll try to find you next time.

Is there an easier way to find people? You'd think there would be a unique code or something for each Steam account.

Well, you can join the xtr group  (or xgn? I'll have to check...) and then look for people in there.  But since a lot of people use different names in different programs, it's not always easy. :)

Hi, I'm getting the leaderboard show up and I see Bacchulum in the list for the Silverstone International hotlap. However my time is showing in red and I think it is therefore invalid. The hotlap time itself is valid and I don't think I have any assist on. ABS seems to be on for this car but I have it set off in the AC assists panel.

Does anyone have any idea what might be wrong with this?

thanks
Andrew

Not sure but do you have penalties turned on.
Title: Re: Friends Leaderboard
Post by: Wally on May 26, 2014, 10:24:16 AM
That's probably it.
Title: Re: Friends Leaderboard
Post by: Gratulin on May 26, 2014, 11:48:36 AM
Yes. Because the hotlap is valid ( and I double checked ). I will try turning ABS off with keyboard shortcut.

EDIT: sorted thanks. Your own laptimes show in RED. That made me think it was invalid since I had got an invalid message earlier.

LOL ahem, italian design...:D

Just kidding.  But these guys have a few things in there that are similarly not the most user-friendly solutions.  Just write to them, maybe they'll fix it at some point - it's still in development, after all.

Hello all!
Thanks Wally for bringing this group to my attention! Looks like I'll find friends and fun here.


Dick Forrest from Perth WA here. Please add me.. (Ok it's not my real name.. Steam ID: Warpward


And I'll throw down straight up in my 1st post.
WA SIM racers are far more handsome than eastern states SIM racers...  ;D There. I said it.

I'm not a very serious person, I'm not over competitive. I'm pretty green to SIM racing so I'll be staying out of the way most of the time..

and I apologize now for rear-ending anyone.. My tires where cold, the sun was in my eyes, the cat jumped on my lap, the wife hit me in the back of the head etc etc.

Hope to be swapping paint with you all soon.

Dick.

It will be a few days before I can race. My rig is dismantled for the moment and I'm touring friends houses with it and showing off AC to try and get them into it, which has been quite easy!

(I thought I put this here, there's no point starting a new thread for this)

So yesterday I've worked on my Formula Abarth rank a bit (it's a fantastic fun car I reckon) and, as you can see in my sig, got to single-digit ranks.  Even better, first page rank!  Mainly, I had to run a few missing circuits.  I was pretty happy with the result...then I've looked at the ranks and there's Marty sitting halfway up above me.

Now I'm pissed.  I'll have to work really hard to get up there....if I can, at all :)  I'll have to find 6 seconds!!

Here's the rank page;

I haven't bothered with the ranks in quite a while only put in a few laps to get a score, if you do beat me though I may get pissed too and need to run more laps.  ;)

Already in the mental pipeline. I plan to have an upcoming poll for the car for next season: Lotus 49, Formula Abarth or Lotus Exos T125. But let's finish the current season first ;)

We are talking about the Assetto  Corsa in-game friends leader board?
I've got quite a few of you on my friend list now. but only one of you is showing up in-game. Should I keep scratching my head about it?
Not that i'm going to be threatening your times just yet...
Title: Re: Friends Leaderboard
Post by: Wally on June 21, 2014, 11:59:08 AM
Yep, that one. I see about 6 or so names usually. Maybe friends just haven't set times at the same car/track combos as you?

Post by: marty on June 21, 2014, 04:08:55 PM
I just noticed in Qually it doesnt work, isnt qualy the only real hotlap mode so it should surely work there. Maybe only registers times in single player hotlap mode but I dont see any reason it cant do it from any session as long as penalties are on or its doing its own lap invalidation checks. Would be good if it gave a best lap for each session for friends so you can see their times in pracitce/hotlap/qualy/race to see how they go in each session not just in a solo hotlap which really doesnt say that much.

Also not sure if you need to run the app for times to register but again it should just save times without needing the app running in any session, as is its quite pointless atm.

I just did a time on the server which then showed up on the friends leaderboard when I went into hotlap mode. At least I think that is what happened.
Title: Re: Friends Leaderboard
Post by: marty on June 21, 2014, 05:49:06 PM
Just checked my server times are faster then whats shown there so it must be only hotlap mode laps counting.
