sad news indeed Seb, it was always nice to check "the mother of all gaps" between my stage times and yours thx for letting us know, nice gesture.

 

[Hubert Smolders]

I must say i might have a problem if i run with the 5 best times...
In particular on the first stages. Why is that?
Because i have a weird dump if i don't quit the first stages in a rally through the task manager... That dump gives me a blue screen,
followed by a cold reboot. If i press continue after the run through. At some point, when i don't know, it fades away and i can save replays etc, but it's allways a gamble when it happens.

On regular club rally this is not a problem, because you can allways reenter and continue, not in champ mode though...

Has an official entry list been generated?

I really just want to confirm I've followed protocol and my entry is valid...

Cheers...

 

[Mark Birney]

Yeah, the rule makes sense, but RSRBR can be very fragile at times. It can randomly crash for me sometimes.

I am having a real hard time finding the Focus WRC06 templates. The one on the rallyesim forum is just the externals and is a lower resolution. Does anyone know where the proper templates for all the parts are? Thanks in advance.

 

[Senad Subasic]

Found this one, not sure if it's the same, but seems like decent resolution: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/6335348/rbr stvari/FocusWRC06templatev10.rar

Car.............Ford Focus WRC06
Season..........2006
RBR model by....JRodrigues/eddy3spain/rivers/Rueda
textures by.....rivers


This package includes:

-focus_06_external template.psd
the main template of the car, there are several switchable layers like the roofscoop shadows element, some m-sport stickers and 2 levels of dirt;

-focus_06_external_transparent template.psd
windows template with separate windscreen banner;

-focus_wrc06_external_mud.dds
an updated muddy texture to be used for the template.

 

[Mark Birney]

Thanks man, that'll do

 

[Hubert Smolders]

Posted a movie from our team in the replay section, not sure if that was the correct place.

 

[Ondrej Kapal]

seems like I am the only one Mitsubishi

 

[Senad Subasic]

I would've considered it, it drivers nicely, but it's too fragile for my "driving style"

 

[Ondrej Kapal]

which makes the car more venerable

 

[Eckhart von Glan]

yep, suffered in a mitsu in season 1, it died on me every second rally, even after only the smallest touches against trees, bridges, whatever. but it drives nice and smooth (as long as it lasts ...)

 

[Hubert Smolders]

I have the same problem as Birney, can't find the normal resolution of the wrc 01 subaru. Only externals on rallysim.
Anyone know where to look?

 

[Yann Laprevotte]

Is that me or the Skoda Fabia S2000 Evo2 is much more fragile than the Evo1?

And BTW, in case anyone has made serious testing in those cars so far... Is it genuinely faster? If yes, how much approximately?

 

[Ondrej Kapal]

I think the improvement is much similar as in Focus 08/09 version (if theres any?)... it is mostly to keep the car actual, sounds and different kit, maybe some more power and more fragile as you say...

Thanks. However, if anyone has some more precise infos(especially timed data), feel free to share.

Another question, on a quite different topic: why this section isn't on the main page anymore? I guess this might be one of the reason why we don't have as many people as last season. Some potentially interrested people might not know about this because they don't read all the forums.

The reason is quite the opposite. Richard Burns Rally subforum had much much more traffic, so putting the championship in here might give it better exposure.
Also, I think all leagues are or will be moved to their respective games subforums.

 

[Norman Biscuits]

Yeah, forums were re-organised (again) and most leagues were hidden as sub-forums of their respective games.


We probably should have written up a front-page article for maximum exposure or at least re-posted Ondrejs quality preview - I'll stick a note in the directors forum about this.
