RDRC S3 Chat, Questions, Feedback

[Teemu Toikka]

I believe I'm Grade 3 now, as I've done Rounds 2 and 3 in RDRC and I did the Grim Reaper (where I retired in all stages).

and now I've done the Hill climb club Rally so...?

This will surely sound dumb: When I install RSRBR2011, do I install it in a seperate folder or does it have to be installed in the original game's folder?

It goes into your Richard Burns Rally folder.
The installer should automatically find your installation though, if it doesn't, then you have a problem with your Windows register.

Well, I guess I can direct it manually to my RBR folder, thanks.

This is a bit more complicated than rF. Not too complicated, just a little more because I do it for the first time.

 

[David Jundt]

The same goes for the track and car packs? Only select the Richard Burns folder when installing?

I heard the tracks have to be put manually under the RXRSRBR folder, is that right?

Yep. Again, the installer should find it.

No, the Country Packs also go into the main Richard Burns Rally folder. The installer should point it there automatically.

The only tracks that need to go into the RXRSRBR folder are the ones that are released separately, usually before being included in RSRBR.
The only Addon Stages that we use on-line are the ones included in the Country Packs.

I have installed all updates now, so I am getting ready for the World and Finland stages, as they are included in the next round. And these are just normal installs then? You know, the French->English translation(On rallysim) has some lines or words where I wasn't quite sure what to do.

I hope installing the mod makes my FFB problem magically disappear, like Ole...

 

[Warren Dawes]

Yes.

I have my doubts but hope you are lucky. If your FFB wasn't working with default RBR and the two official Updates, I can't see anything in RSRBR that will fix it. The official updates should have fixed your FFB, but they are also included in RSRBR.

 

[David Jundt]

Even though I didn't have FFB(Some said they downgraded their Logitech profiler, but what use is that?), I like the game already. I've always been a fan of Colin McRae Rally, but this is a very good game too, a nice driving feeling

I was able to complete rally school on perfect without ffb, but it wasn't that hard after some tries.

Which file does save the progress in rally school? If the game stops working, I might have to re-install, and maybe it would be goodif I could keep it. Same goes for the registering online. Even if I un-install and install again, it should "remember" my username, I guess?

I don't know about the Rally School records, sorry.
Your registration with RSRBR is with Rallyesim, so it won't be lost. You may just have to re-enter your username, number, and password into RSCenter again if you re-install.

 

[Łukasz Demolin]

Backup the "SavedGames" folder. There is a profile file with you progress inside, file with the best times and all of the setups saved along the way.

 

[David Jundt]

Thanks Łukasz!

I have installed the World and Finland pack aswell as the "All cars pack". Soon there

EDIT: I've got another desktop file called "Lanceur d'Add Ons RSBR". I haven't heard of it in the guide before. What is it used for?

Is that used for sending times and replays somewhere, by looking at it?

I've started the default game, and used the Mulli-profile. Suddenly, the FFB works like Ole's! It even reacts to the FFB test!

I am not sure with the screen solution in the RSCenter, I have a laptop, is that 16/9?

Is there also a way where I can look at all cars, like a showroom? I'll have to chose a car after registering.

Also, how do you that it's a certain player that drives? Everyone uses the Mulli-profile. Or doesn't that matter online and is taken care of by registering already?

I am not exactely sure.

 

[Łukasz Demolin]

The RSRBR utility takes care of recognizing the driver (that's why you log in before driving online). I've never used the "addon launcher".

About the resolution - depends on what laptop do you have. Could be 16:9, 16:10, 5:4. I advise you to use the WorkerBee's FixUp Patch and it's built in Aspect Ratio fix. The best way to handle non 4:3 resolutions.

Glad your FFB finally works

 

[David Jundt]

Ah, I see that there are already plugins inside after installing the mod.

My laptop is a bit different than this one, but same brand and probably has 16:9:

I haven't touched the Cam-Hack yet, the default cam between the driver and the Co isn't that bad for me.

 

[David Jundt]

Number: I guess I can chose any of those that are still available?

Login: Does this have to be the real name or can it be a Nick?

If the Login hasn't got to be your real name, where do you put it in(do you even have to)?

 

[David Jundt]

Argh...

Guess I need to go to the Rallysim Forum and register an account there...

Because I registered, but the pop-up said "registration error", and on the second try said that the email was already in use.

 

[David Jundt]

Nevermind, this morning I got an email.

My account on rallysim was activated, but I also got the news that my registration was successful and it seems like I don't need to ask bluesky on the forum there anymore.

Currently testing cars at Laitse Rally Park, set my best time with the Golf:eek:

 

[Jeff Feaker]

I also have a quick question, I may have missed something in the rules but is it possable to get a season time changed? From 10pm to 8pm? Kind of like the rally club event?

ONLY the sessions that drivers nominate for will be created. There will be NO extra sessions will be created once the round commences. The ONLY exception to the creation of extra sessions will be in the case that the organisers make an error with session creations or should a server issue force competitors not to be able to drive.

Not doable at the moment, I'm afraid. 50+ people, would be a nightmare to manage. Also, one can only have 3 active sessions at a time.
