Title: Cobra Cup Signup Thread.
Post by: Bruce on August 18, 2014, 03:49:27 PM
JustTo simplify Thursday night's races, could you reply in this thread if you intend to race in the Cobra Cup.
If you have already forwarded your Assetto Corsa GUID then there is no need to repeat, but if your new to AC racing here, have not sent your GUID to Wally, could you send to me.

The server will have the users already on on the grid list for the night, any skins I 'should' have applied to your user IDs.
On the night I 'WILL NOT' be as quick as Wally adding them, so please do ASAP.

Entry List: 1 -16 racers.

Reserves: 17+
*

Thanks again Wally for your assistance.

I'll take a bench spot (reserves) as I can probably only make a couple. :(

Count me in for this season.  When cricket training starts on a Thursday night it might be touch and go whether I can make it back in time for qual.

Ok at home now.
I can see my body skins are: 87,382kb compared to say the anniversary skin 65,537kb
meh getting larger..

BUT! my rim.DDS file is 5,462kb compared to 683kb
So there is a chunk.

The difference in files varies..
Total file size of CramDick Racing skin for the Cobra is 91.5mb
Total file size of guybrushe's hello kitty is 85.5mb
Total file size of 50th anniversary is 64.8mb
Total file size of Black is 199kb.


How should I proceed?

I'll jump in as a reserve as I might not be able to make every race. I should be able to make most of them but can't fully commit  :(

Sounds good. As there are limited numbers at present you will be on the server list until it fills.
Cheers.

I would like to go as a reserve but as our tennis season has started the only thursday nites I can make is if we get a washout. This wont be called til 7 or 7.30pm so maybe being a reserve wont work as notice is a bit late. We will get a couple byes though so should be able to make those 2 weeks at least.

Howzat567, sorry for the short "Welcome" and lack of information over the weekend.  ::)

This week's run is at Goodwood jump over to http://www.xgn.com.au/index.php?topic=471.0 to pick up the track and times for the event.
If you have a skin or if your game enough to use one of Dick's interesting skins,,, jump over to http://www.xgn.com.au/index.php?topic=459.0. (On the serious side, these are great works of art!), just post in the thread a link to your file or pick one from the installed skins for your individualised ride.  8)

Here is the the important stuff:
Server Details
The AC server is called AUS www.xgn.com.au THUR Cobra Cup
Please connect and let me know all is okay, or the alternative :(  AC is new to me and still learning the tricks!
TeamSpeak is encouraged. The server is ts.xgn.com.au.

I recommend TS if you can, over all they are an okay bunch heheh, but in case you (or any one) has a problem on the night, we may be able to sort it out quickly, restart the server or wait for peeps running a little late, reboots etc, we don't want to miss out on our racing.  ;D

When you get the chance and your inclined please drop a few lines on yourself here... http://www.xgn.com.au/index.php?topic=320.0
Wally's super supportive info http://www.xgn.com.au/index.php?topic=307.0
Setups from our generous in house race engineers. http://www.xgn.com.au/index.php?topic=311.0

One season finishes another one begins... or at least I hope so.  Your more than welcome to be in the final round, Gratulin, see you then.  I will get you keyed up for Season 2 of the "Shelby Cobra Cup".
