Rally - Escort Mk 2 Take 2 - Mon 28th & Tues 29th November 2011

I would like to sign up, I have raced on RD before but I have never done any online RBR events so i dont really know how the server works or anything. I have all the car packs and RSRBR 2011.

Thank you, I look forward to trying my hand at rallying for a change, I have done some co driving in a mk2 escort in the uk, and they are very much my favourite rally car!

How long before the start time will the server be up? Sorry if this is already answered elsewhere
 
If I'm not mistaken, you'll only be able to join from the start time, and you'll have 15mins to the start of SS1. So, you can join from 20.00GMT to 20.15GMT.
But if for some reason you miss that time, you'll still be able to join, and the missed stages will be considered as retired
 
Unfortunately, Senad is having internet problems and won't be available for a few days, so I'll try to organise this one.
Please note, that means that I may not be able to create new sessions if they are requested very late (I'm in a very different timezone to the Europeans), so if you want to have a new session created, please advise it well before the requested start time.
Also, I may be a little slow getting the results posted for similar reasons.
 
If Senad put me on the startinglist, I will try to make a video of the event. Anyone who have a preferred skin for the video, please PM me. Will not make anything fancy, but try out some ideas ahead of the upcoming season :)
This would also include saving some replays for me, ofcourse. Would be nice to have some replays from the different stages, so that I don't get 15 replays of SS1 and that's it ;)

Managed to get back online, after 2.5 days of living offline. The horror, the horror...

Anyway, thanks for the help Warren, should be fine now.
 
Hi guys, im havin a few issues with accessing online play. I am following instructions from the tutorial, but when i click start online session it keeps coming up saying server time is set different to my time, but it doesnt let me change it or join any rooms. Help for a noob? I dont wanna miss this Mk2 escort rally, it would be a great way to start my RBR online gameplay!
 
ok ignor the above post, i just changed the clock on my PC and it seems to work now. Sorry for thread clogging ; )

Glad you sorted it Jimi.

One thing you might want to check, just in case.
In RSCenter, under File/Settings, there is a section called GMT/UTC with a choice from drop down offsets.
You need to set this to match your timezone offset to GMT. eg. I have mine set to +10hrs.
Yours will be different depending on your time zone.

Once you have that set (and saved), when you are in the Public Sessions screen, there is a button that says "Display Server Hour". You can use this to synchronise your PC clock with the Server Clock.

I'm not sure if you have done all of this.

Please note though, sometimes the Server Clock gets a few seconds early which can cause the Synchro not to work. So, always check this well before the start of your rally. We have covered that one in our FAQ here:
