Was good to see improvements in the net code or what ever it is. But still a bit of work to be done. There might not be jumping all over the place but now there are huge lag spikes which will cause cars to jump meters instead of a just jitter about. I think that was causing a few of the 1st corner incidents. Being one of the slowest guys ever to grab hold of a steering wheel I see a few of these incidents 1st hand. You don't win races by being overly cautious. Yes, got to give room. but giving more than is needed is going to cost you big time. I Know cause I do give tons of room and usually, if no one crashes, I'll be 200-500 meters behind by the 1st-2nd corner.You all know it. you gotta be on the button 100% of the time.I think warping / jumping caused most of the incidents last night. Even in a straight line I warped or was warped onto, almost directly on top of me. If that happens on the 1st chicane then it's going to get nasty. The cars go into auto-spin-of-death which is totally unrealistic most of the time. bad luck if you are near someone when this happens. Racing comes with a dose of bad luck that you need to be mentally prepared for. Just pull up your skirt and get on with it.100's of laps, 100's of races yet to be had will also be ruined. It's part of the sport. Every 5-6 of my laps are ruined. meh. There is always next lap.Assetto Warpa is still in development so it's got it's own share of bad luck so we have to be ready for that too.Shame Blackwood is broken. It's the nicest fantasy track I've seen and really enjoy it. and I'm very anti-fantasy track. It's got some awesome elements. If it was 100% I'd vote for it.No matter how many laps i did. i could not break 1:12 i'm blaming Guybrushes set up.

Some good racing in there.I didn't really see much wrong with Blackwood. The only obvious things were the black holes which I haven't come across since it's first release but apparently are there. Once these are fixed, the grass has more "grassy" properties and the skid-marks are fixed it will be pretty much right IMO. I'm tipping a lot of these are probably fixed in the latest update which has just been released...There was the issue of getting beached at certain areas but this is probably more a result of the car and track combo than an error in the track conversion, as I'm sure there are tracks around the world where this could happen in real life.

I haven't seen the warping you talk about, Dick. But on the replay there are some funny shit happening at the start of R2...But there were a bit too many T1 incidents. I've caused one in R2 I reckon. Just had a quick look at the replay and I went in too hot locking up the fronts and sliding wide...sorry gents.And btw LFS had only fantasy tracks, and they're pretty much all damn good. RSC has one, too, and that's pretty darn good, too. The fact is, people can make a very good fantasy tracks, same as real life. « Last Edit: July 23, 2014, 09:33:52 AM by Bird » Logged Dick Forrest Hero Member Posts: 1309 Karma: 17 Contains traces of nuts!

I think I was following Marty, so thanks for the race/brakeline and thanks Guybrush for the setup Will review the "incident" on race 2 between Freezer and myself over my replay... lol all good, was racing and so far over the course of it all I've been pretty lucky to come out generally unscathed...Still to qualify 10th (with my shiny new PB), get tapped... spin and end up 19th to get back to 12th was awesome fun in itself Logged Print Pages: 1 2 3 4 « previous next » Xtreme Gaming Network / Simulation Racing Leagues / Assetto Corsa (Moderator: Wally) / Tue July 22 Trial Race: Formula Abarth at Blackwood
