There are two extra car models than last week? The two M3 variants?Remember, I've only got the list in the sign up post to go from. As far as working out fast to slowest. So if there are any changes in that original list let me know.But the main question is. Only the two M3 variants have been added since last week?This is where skinning gets annoying. Things don't always work how they should. and it's a slow process to work it out sometimes. and the M3 step 1 has got me stumped atm. It's exact same template as the standard M3 there is some file somewhere that makes the car either be white. or if I mess with the files. it comes out like this:Dick looks like the detail maps have been screwed up there a little, are you using the actual PDF templates or going over existing skins? Best to use the official templates and make sure the detail layer is still there as the cars end up looking a bit crappier otherwise.Are you sure you havent used the wrong template for that car, Maybe reduce the XGN logo to something a little less hit you in the face font. For street cars even just basic colours would be ok without really needing any logos and such. Logged Dick Forrest Hero Member Posts: 1309 Karma: 17 Contains traces of nuts!

But I cant delete it or change it without it being out of whack.I cbf messing around with it anymore. I think the step 1 will be just a solid colour with no sponsors.on A side note. managed to fall asleep just as the they got the 10 minute warning for the restart at Suzuka. Woke to see them handing out trophies on the podium..... hate that so much..

Hope he pulls through.I didnt realise japan was even on last weekend and so I missed it. I dloaded the race overnight and will watch it this afternoon. Pretty bad about Bianchi not sure how bad he is but car under the tractor is very unlucky. Hope he gets through this but they said he suffered massive head injuries which cant be good.

Hope he gets through this but they said he suffered massive head injuries which cant be good.I missed a fair bit of action. Very Unfortunate about Bianchi. It is something that clearly could have been prevented. Big lapse in safety and also maybe a bit of bad judgement by Bianchi?

I just have to make sure I can keep it on the track and get a good qualifying time. Logged Dick Forrest Hero Member Posts: 1309 Karma: 17 Contains traces of nuts!

It wouldn't have been too bad but I hate to be turned around on lap one in T3... I had another two comings-together, but those were ok. This one was not so much, IMO.And there was a bit too much warping going on, too.Still, I've enjoyed the night, again, thanks gents!

It was a bit ugly, but hard to really apportion blame.Congratulations to Marty and Rob on the race wins and Gwyar for the round win.Reserve RPM earned points towards Achilles Heels.Round PointsGWyar 69Rob 65Peter Reid 58Wally 56Schmittez 56Marty 55Ysu 55Vipergod 46Dave O 45Freezer 43Crimespree 43Imperious 39Bacchulum 37RPM 35Phil 34cramjet 27Gratulin 27Insomniac 24Grubbet 21Krahl 20Dick Forrest 19EdWood 17Season Podium1.

No excuse, just a silly accident. I did hold back for a bit and finally gave the place up when you caught up.Also it's clear us west aussies aren't capable of dealing with day light savings (or lack of?). The mrs and I had a long confusing chat and figured out the race would start an hour later here...I log in for an early practice to find the first race just about finished. That stuff is confusing mayn. Why can't we join the rest of the world!?Racing was otherwise fun. Had a good battle with Gratulin in race 3 - sorry about the bump, I was trying to avoid the crash up ahead without giving away too much I always struggle to find pace around Silverstone without downforce. I'm a bit better at Imola so hoping to claw back some points next round for CramDick Racing!

I think this just comes down to the fact the I had done a lot of practice prior to the race and everyone just got to know the track better and the night went on and improved more than I did so it became closer.
