IMPORTANT:
If you have beta 2/3 or 3/3 on your machine go to mydocuments and rename the netKar PRO folder to back it up ( I renamed it to netKar PRO BACKUP) before installing the 1.1 RC version.

Copy your license and driver folders from your old install into the new one.

Make sure you install the sim to a new folder as well. If you have another beta installed already it will try and install it to that folder by default.


Don't try using old setups.


The Finnglish guys have been testing multiplayer extensively today and things are looking very good so far. Collison detection seems vastly improved over beta 2/3.. Every test so far has shown contact being made properly to register a hit. A full server test needs to be done to confirm it though, but it's looking very good so far.


The winged formula cars feel very good indeed after several laps to get used to the changes.


Also included in this release is the track tools for importing tracks into netKar, but so far no documentation is available. I'm hoping one of the teams that have already been using this tool will team will release some basic notes soon.

Some of the addon tracks don't work properly though. The fix is apparently not to tricky, so hopefully the track makers will have them sorted out soon.

There is a slight problem with it I think. (It loads for me)
If you collide with a wall (even the merest tap) you remain stuck to it!
I haven't tested it for all the cars, but it happens for the F2000

 

[Stuart Whitehead]

Thanks for the info Salvatore. I'll do some testing tomorrow and contact the track author to let him know.

I'm getting it to load up to this point, cars/formulas2000/shadow.nko then the game locks up, and nothing happens.

Just to confirm... do you have a folder in your main netKar install folder called ASE?

Hi everybody,
I just installed the full version, and the game doesn't look too well. there is strong alising, no matter what I select in the video settings. (got the Nvidia Geforce 9600 GT and Vista 64).
Some suggestions?
Thanks.

 

[Dave Stephenson]

force the settings in the driver software. you can create a profile just for the nkp application. Remember to use the engine exe not the launcher.

Hi Stuart,

what are the tracks waiting for fixes ? please write here a list ...
what about Laguna Seca ? I've heard there are issues ....

thanks for you help
ciao

 

[Stuart Whitehead]

Laguna Seca : Errors but works
Adelaide : Errors but works NOW FIXED
Monaco : Errors but works (A lot of them!)
Montréal : Works
Spa : Works WALL PROBLEMS BEING INVESTIGATED
Falkenberg : Works
Lastplace Lake : Works
Snetterton : Works
Silverstone : Errors but works

All the tracks with errors on loading work. If it looks like the track is stuck at the loading stage just keep pressing the ENTER key.


I'll be checking out all the addon tracks for the sticky wall problems soon.

Stefano told me that he changed the wall physics. This could be a consequence of that change.

I did few laps today and... its nice too see final version finally Only problem is big fps drop against beta's. Payment will be spent for computer upgrade i think ;/ Damn...

Hi again...Have you sorted you FPS problems out yet? Could you give some more details if not, such as... is it all tracks? Just some addon tracks? Can you provide your system specs including Operating system and GPU driver version. There are a few people having issues with some tracks and we are trying to gather as much info as possible to see if we can spot the common denominator.

Second link is corrupt Nicola.

 

[Bram Hengeveld]

Installed.

First impression of v1.1: WOW

How much sim can you get for a lousy 19 euro\s

 

[Rodolfo]

At Monaco, I had to press enter 100 times and the screen is standing at flags/flag.nko. Then it is continuing normally and I can drive at Monaco.

 

[Katsushika Matsumoto]

WOW
How much sim can you get for a lousy 19 euro\s

that much

 

[Stuart Whitehead]

Yup, it's a known problem. Just hold your enter key down :tongue:

 

[Ingemar Petersson]

This must be my best spent 20 Eur ever , man this game rocks

 

[Bjorn de Haas]
