NRT Game Servers

 

[Patrick Giranthon]

My server is fine too. No problem.

 

[Ivo Simons]

Very good update guys. You notice the little improvement on the car. Esspacially the locking brakes.
But still the car feels like the first time and didnt lost his character. Good job.

 

[Patrick Giranthon]

The cars go to curves more easily (less understeer). Nice job!

 

[Dave-NRT]

Ivo:

Yes the car improvement is great...Nice touch also with the additional tracks.
as Patlezinc stated...less under steer. Did you do some changes with the tire model?

Dave

 

[Ivo Simons]

Ah missed this one.

Adjusted parc ferme rules to allow fuel and brake adjustments before race

Was still doing Q with race fuel.

Less grip with cold tires I think... But I have to test again...

 

[Daiivin407]

There is a possibility to put the new "Layouts" 2011 Cars of the game in 2010?

 

[Randy Chamberlin]

Havent tried tonight but am soon, but last night I was having "incompatible game versions" on alot of servers. Im new to this sim so just installed patch , tracks and cars available here. Ideas??

 

[Ivo Simons]

Probably the servers arent updated then.

Hi,
I am computer illiterate so any help with the GSC game and patches would be greatly appreciated!!


I just downloaded the game and the two patches from the Reiza website
GSC_v160_Setup
GSC_v170_Update_Digital.exe 38.4mb
GSC_v170_Update_Digital.zip 40.8mb

I plan to install the game and then patch to v1.70. Or do I need to intall v1.60 download, register game, and then patch?

I do not quite undersand the patch process. What do I do with the two patches? I assume they are both needed since they are different file sizes? Can I stick both on my desktop and then double-click the .exe or do I still have to unzip the larger zip file first to my GSC folder? Or do I only need the .exe file alone?

thanks in advance!!

You just need one, I suggest you install 1.6 and use the 1.7 exe (you just have to point to your GSC 1.6 folder)

I think one is an exe install while the other might only be folders and files, 2 different way to achieve the same thing

After don't forget to download recent track pack (6 extra layout), the formula classic and the new formula Reiza
And you also have 4 extra tracks Jerez, Vanport, Floripa and Putman Park if you want

OK, thanks for the help and the tip about the track pack! Jerez is one of my favorite tracks!!
Cheers!

Great purchase!

Did you buy the DVD or version where you have to download?

On page 1 of this thread you can find the download links.

For the downloaded version, use the digital version, for the DVD version, the DVD one.

Good luck!

 

[Mark Lutes]

oh...well that sounds easy enough. I did the download one...thanks!!
I am hoping some of my speed can be found in the new version

 

[Lars Brugman]

When i try to open it it says ''unexpected end of archive'' and when i try to extract it says ''the file is either damaged or corrupted''
Anyone knows a solution?

 

[Bram Hengeveld]

Did you unpack it with winrar or 7zip?

 

[Lars Brugman]

Did you unpack it with winrar or 7zip?

Tried with both of them.
