There's a really good new Assetto Corsa Server manager program. Pity it needs most of the AC install to run :(

I had some brilliant races with the GT86 @ Zandvoort.
WD on the WR!

The Nismo feels brilliant, the way you can control it when it slides.

Yep. It is still needed even with the new manager. Yours is only manager that let's you remotely manage a server. Perhaps that should be in it's name?

The Nismo is what Im most looking forward to and think it at Nords tonight will be where I will be at mostly. Its also the only car Ive driven thats in AC so far though my drive was just cruising the streets but had a passenger run in an r35 gtr vspec at the Mt Buller sprint. Its a pretty epic beast woth its AWD system and active suspension so it will be interesting to see how it translates in AC.

The AC server manager cant you just run it on your home setup and then copy over the config files and any files it creates. I was doing this with the old server setup software and packager. I dont really need all those game files on the server plus it will all run much faster on your gaming system. Also it will alway have all the mod data to work with so should be good if it works in a better way then the previous version.

Yep. Definitely an improvement but Joe's manager system means you can configure and start/stop without logging into the server. Also, no need to keep copying config files. But it would be nice to have some of the features in the new AC version in Joe's version (but not pressuring Joe!!).

I hate with a passion my rear view mirror being forced on,  In iracing they recomend you turn it off when online.  it makes you panic.  better off enforcing everyone to have spotter.

I couldn't race without it.  But then, I have a single monitor with fairly low FOV so can't see any other mirrors.

This page on the AC forums might be useful for Wally and any of the other server admins (has some info about server setup):

Yeah, I was thinking it's a bit rude to enforce things appearing on people's screens. It's like forcing cockpit view. Not everybody wants to race like that.
