Server is up.
Let me know what I have wrong :)

This track only has 20 slots so I will assign cars before Thursday once I know what most are driving

Also I love this quote from Bruce
 "Slots filling fast, don't let the tough Thursday lads intimidate you!"

Do we have to download another 605 mb in the cars file in OP to get onto server Phil?

Just noticed the google file has separate folders.  If you're taking out the Javelin, should only need the modified Ferrari folder correct?

thanks Dave O.

So the two links in the OP are just alternative links to the same cars? Or do we need to download from both links?

Server is up, please tell me it works.

I have had major PC issues since windows creators fall update,  If you have not done it delay it for the 3 month you can before its forced upon you,  issues should be fixed by then.

I have had all games no longer loading and my graphics driver had reverted back to some Microsoft basic driver and would only let me update it in safe mode :( which allowed me to game again :)   Had a new phantom directory made on c drive but cannot see it or delete programs that have gone in it  e,g  I now have 2 installs of TS one where I installed on D drive and a second new icon pointing to a folder on C drive, named same as my D drive folder called Program Files (D), so I have C:\Program Files (D)\TeamSpeak 3 Client" but cannot see any folders in is meant to be in , even when viewing hidden items. This has happed to about 5 or 6 other programs also, Very annoying.

Downloaded the Ferrari plus folder from the google link in OP and extracted straight to cars folder, but it doesn't show in the car selection screen.

I'm guessing I have to rename this folder to the default Ferrari folder name, and replace it. When I tried the server Javelin plus was still showing.  Dave O.

You needed to delete ACL original version first.

It does sound very annoying!

TBH I'd not mind a delay, either, I did not test anything - I kinda thought "I still have time"...
Since the server is up, I'll do my setup tonight  - I haven't even started up AC in a few months :/

(but do not delay solely on my account!)

Can't get the Ferrari plus mod to show in game.  Removed orig Ferrari folder, extracted new folder to cars in AC and no Ferrari in car selection screen.

Renamed the new folder to the same as orig and still no Ferrari in car selection screen.  Replaced orig Ferrari folder back in game and Ferrari shows ??

Original folder says 190 mb  Ferrari plus folder says 172 mb ??  Got me beat  :(

I have removed the javelin ,

all that is on the server is what is in the download in the first post,  both downloads are the same file.  If you installed a previous version you have to delete it first I think I read somewhere.

If still having trouble at 7.30 or so I can change to something else we all have and give everyone a chance to get it working.

Is anyone else having trouble getting on the server ?  Maybe its a particular car or cars causing issues.  If it is a certain car/cars I will drop them if I figure out what ones.

no, in fact not.  So I guess my d/l was faulty.  And then everyone downloading my pack got the faulty car, too.  I'll try to re-download it from the google drive pack.

Yep, all good now. I was able to join.

I've actually re-downloaded the fezza from your google drive link, and the issue persists (can't even start a local practice).  So the files on google drive are already corrupt for that car, it seems.

p.s. I'm a bit on/off atm and can't join on full, I've got a 6yo running around here, getting ready for bed.

Good racing with you guys tonight! Fighting with a lot of under steer in the GTR, but I can brake late and carry some speed through the corners. Following Wally in the Pantera though I don't think I would have been able to pass, lucky for me he made a mistake. The Pantera and BMW seem to pull away from the GTR quite a bit and the corvettes seem pretty crap...at least when I tried them.

A quick, drunken, thought on the checksum error.
When I rejoined, there seemed to be a lot less cars than just the omission of the '67 'vette.
Is it possible that the server has older version cars and these may have been accidentally selected on the track change?
Never done it, but it sounds like you edit a config file to change tracks, and seeing as we'd been through so many configs of cars on this track, a previous version may have been edited.
I may be wrong, but I think the car names showed up at Brands, so they were the ACL cars and not from G0D's d/l (which we saw didn't show the cars in the timing screen).
Just a (flowing) thought.




(so much for quick  :-X )

That's the standard ACL mod? so not sure why it's all turned into something so confusing. Can't we just use that and remove the cars that are not good. Also some people picked the porsche from the mod and it's not even on the server.

Because I still can't get it working now

ACL Porsche has to use DLC content.
As for the other cars, Seanus fixed:
Panterra ,blacked out rearview mirror
Capri ,flashing lines across windscreen
Ferrari ,error in tyre files
which is why it has become a bit confusing plus the problem of the corrupted Ferrari file.

But I am sure it will be all good by next Thursday.

I really enjoyed last night it brought back memories of Power and Glory days, you too Bruce? The racing was excellent with many close battles and with such a mixture of cars on the grid, it is visually spectacular. One of the highlights would have to be following Robin in his  Nissan GTR  watching him power slide around nearly every corner, making it look very easy. This is going to be a GREAT season  :) :)

Great to see Bruce back in his Daytona. Maybe not the easiest car to drive mate, but it sounds glorious.

Thanks Dennis, never been able to drift in AC before but with that Nissan GTR it is so simple. Not the best way to put in a fast lap, but heaps of fun. But isn't that what Thursday night is all about??

Thanks to Phil, Dennis, Seanus et al for all the hard work. Its been a bit a of a struggle to get this season sorted but I'm sure it will turn out to be one of the best.

Have to concur - a lot of fun and excellent to see a couple of old-timers make a return.

PS. I'd like to put in a repeat of my suggestion for accessing the Google Drive archive for the season. If you already have Google Drive installed on your PC you can "add to you Drive" when accessing the download link. This means you don't go through Zipping that occurs if yiu explicitly download. You can also sync just the changed files using Google Drive and then copy direct into AC.

I think if it's zipped up instead of being a thousand individual files, you can d/l it without hassles - even from google drive.

Th problems occurred because it wasn't already zipped so Google was initiating a zip on it‘s own before downloading. This took forever.

Sorry to hear that Bruce,but it was great to see you on track again , you can adjust wheel weight in game by using "+" and "-" keys I now have most cars set to less than 50% wheel weight and can now drive with no elbow or shoulder problems. You can easily "ride mechanic" using ptracker, click on the green icon , then click on driver name , then select spectate. 
See you again this Thursday :)

Thanks Denis,
I have the weight down to min and still give some feel, but one adds that to the continual movement = ouch.  haha
So I will take week by week, and that ptracker has some great features.

thanks for showing up everyone and putting up with my unorganisation , with a pc re install and all the trouble getting the server going with this mod, I feel that it didn't run as smoothly as usual tonight, hopefully  I will be more on the ball next week :)

Well done Humper and Roo on the race wins.

The racing was great fun. The Pantera had really good turn in which enabled me to stick it up the inside on the final turn a few times.
Upon watching the race 2 replay, I see that I wasn't taken out from the rear as it felt at the time, but had a slight side-to-side touch with Humper when he was trying to make a move on the inside. It was enough to be hit by Rob too and end up facing the wall, which was disappointing in what was shaping up to be some nice close racing. I had a good chase of Mael and Seanus, both of whom seemed to be struggling with pace.

The lap times certainly tumbled from race 1 to race 2.
I purchased the Porsche 1 pack just before start time, and no issues at all with server or mod.

Race 2 my best for quite a while, with 2nd. Both myself and Daveo had some major offs but 4th was so far behind it didn't
cost us too much. Well done Rooshooter on the win, I got nearly close enough once or twice but in the end
the mistakes here and there evened it out.

I really liked this track and just for fun drove it in several different cars to clock up over 150 laps, in total. R1 I could not get close to the fastest lap times but I knew I had consistency at my pace, I was able to hang on the to the lead pack and was just behind Bird to finish 5th and set fastest lap time of the race :o. Congratulations on the win Humper, holding off that pack of wolves behind you would not have been easy.

R2 reverse grid, I did think the field was not bunched up enough at the start but without TS there is not you can do about it, plus there should have been more cars in front of me. I caught Mael and it took while to get past (good driving in the Porsche Mael) and the was on the tail of Dave O, who was also driving a Daytona, he stayed in front of for quite awhile, and there was no place I was actually faster than him to make a pass so it was down to him making an error, which he did in the same place as R1, when I was also behind him :(. I was now leading the race :o I then noticed a Panterra starting to make a run behind me, I presumed it would be Bacchulum but after going past the start/finish line I noticed it was Imperious and he put pressure on me to the end with both of us making mistakes to maintain the status quo, thanks Imp you kept me honest.
Before this race I truly believed I would never win another simrace :( but maybe all the practice made a difference.
Thanks Phil and everyone else for persevering with this season , I think we are going to have some great racing.

I did wait for you to recover and resume racing even though I felt that you had moved across onto me when I was up over the concrete apron on apex. I was surprised that you didn't give me any room at all. Sorry it ended up so badly it should have been a nothing rub that we both continued on from. Must be something to do with your puny fragile Pantera  ;D

From the replay, it looked like I was squarely on the racing line. To he honest, I didn't even realise you were trying a move up the inside.  I might have recovered, but the problem was I speared off to the right and ended up in Rob's path.

It was great racing, gents, I enjoyed harassing Rob - great job in the Vette, mate! - I was always so close but my racecraft is a bit rusty.   
Shame about that accident with you guys back there Wally & Humper, it'd have been a lot of close racing with you trying to bite my arse :)

Played with the Porsche's setup in an effort to make it easier to drive consistently; and succeeded beyond expectation. Unfortunately as side effect it appeared that I tuned all the speed out of it!

Still except for the last couple of laps in race 2 there were always someone to race with. I was genuinely impressed by the driving standard of the racers who passed me, had no serous contact with the diminutive Porsche during the two races. :)

Now back to the drawing board on that setup.  :o
