Live track awesomeness

You're not wrong Glen.

Started with a "Green" track and could feel the extra grip as the laps rolled on. Not sure if it is only the "Racing Line" that rubbers up or the whole track. But it sure feels good.:)

I am hoping for racing line but whole track is better than nothing for now :)

I read its the whole track for now.

I think it's a great sign for now and shows it's on the agenda, this is quickly becoming a great simulator. I am doing a fresh install of windows and will then jump on AC, hopefully see a few of you guys on there tonight slip streaming away   ;D

The online experience with assetto corsa is a bit rough,i think they have a bit of way to go.and I am sure they will polish the multiplayer section.

Found for the new non-booking server mode you need to create an entry list without driver names. When people join they get assigned the next one available. Could be used to enforce a mixed grid by limiting the number of entries per car.

Here is the change log for version 0.21 (and it does include online slip streaming):

Cant see that in the change log. Does it really work?

I've only had a quick go of the 98T online, where the performance difference between everyone on the server was quite large so didn't get constant speed behind someone to see it in full effect.

It was confirmed by Kunos on their official forums though, even though it doesn't specify it in the release notes.

There are lots of other little touches as well, like the virtual mirror staying on between sessions, and messages telling you when some has disconnected.

There is a password bug Wally. so that explains that.
http://www.assettocorsa.net/forum/index.php?threads/password-not-working.12387/

Why Marty kept ramming everyone? Who knows!

Marty, guybrush and myself gatecrashed a few servers and did doughnuts till we got kicked just too see what our pings where like. over 400 and still smooth but our cars don't turn, just kinda drift across without tuning in. Then Marty got creepy and bump-rammed the server owner on their PB lap.
 The server soon shut down after that.

You must be a novelist as you sure can make up a good story, which you never let the truth get too far in the way of.  ;D

Great docos on the the F1's at the start of the turbo era.
Taken from the AC forums.

edit: The guys loitering around the pits. And especially the guy on the milling machine without safety glasses takes you back to the good ol days..

the kinda thing I imagine Bacchulum would watch every day.

We noticed online that it definitely worked, in the Formula Abarth at Blackwood. Someone said that drafting has always been there with the AI. Some cars will draft more or less than others, too.
