rF2 Renault CLIO @ Mid Ohio - Wednesday September 5th 2012

[Stefan Woudenberg]

Can't get in, which version track???

v1.91

every time I am getting Get Mod, I get mod, but then it does not install

First uninstall the version 1.0 mod, than it should work

 

[Jimi Hughes]

I will see if we can wait before quali to try and get you in. The more the merrier!

Same here. Can join offline. Have a nice race.

Not sure which one we are using but I have both installed 1.90 and 1.91

 

[Stefan Woudenberg]

the server holds v1.91.

Same here. Can join offline. Have a nice race.

Version 1.0 needs to be uninstalled first in teh mod manager, before you get 1.2
first try the TEST server and next the CLIO one.

I really have no clue why it works like this.. or why it doesn't work normally

 

[Stefan Mizzi]

heh, getting server error now. Mod 1.2 seems to be installed ok though

 

[Craig Booth]

OK deleted the mod as uninstalling didn't work, and now get server connection failed.

yeah same here. Could it be cause I have Mid ohio 1.90 and 1.91 installed?

Try to join the test server if it is still there, then exit and join the clio server. Seemed to work for me like that

 

[Jimi Hughes]

yeah same here. Could it be cause I have Mid ohio 1.90 and 1.91 installed?

No, I have both installed also

 

[Stefan Mizzi]

test gave me the same problem, server connection failed.

Don;t worry guys, I'll pass. Have fun

I created a new package folder package2, change mods path and it worked!

Thanks, I'll remember this for future reference. I can't think of how you came to that solution!

 

[Stefan Woudenberg]

I had an teriible race. These curbs are horrible for these cars. I have been rolling over like 8 times which didn't make the car handle better.
I spent about 600 seconds in the pit for repairs. When I went in I forgot to change the fuel level, so they sent me out with a full tank which didn't make me go quicker either.

I have no idea why there were so many server problems. When I put up the server a couple of days ago, I just could connect and drive, but last night it was a true nightmare

 

[Stefan Mizzi]

Yep, I kept trying to get into server when finally I managed to log into the server for the last 4 minutes of qualification. Phew. Just made it in.

Managed to get pole but had a bad start and Jimi took the lead. So the next 6 laps I was stuck to his a$$ but he was defending well and I could not get through. Was really fun!

Then Jimi went a bit wide in mid sector and I managed to squeeze in but unfortunately we touched in the next corner. Here is the vid. I am not sure if this is considered a racing accident, or his fault or if it was my fault and if I should have given him back the lead...would like to know your opinion. I'm the one in the white car and Jimi white/blue.

From then onwards, it wasn't that hard but felt bad for Jimi as we were having fun. Anyway, it was my first win in RD

 

[Stefan Woudenberg]

Stefan, normally we don't post video's of incidents on the forum. If you want to file an incident report. Sent the video with different angles to the organiser (me in this case) and descibe what happened.

I don't see much in the vid above. You were on the race line and in front. You could have given a bit room to Jimi, but Jimi could have hold back a bit. A race incident I would say.
When I was in the pit I was watching you two battle very closely and fair, too bad it ended like this.

 

[Stefan Mizzi]

Sorry for the vid post Stefan, I'll keep it in mind for next no. Nooo, I don't want to file an incident report, I just felt bad for both of us it ended that way as it was a nice battle and just wanted to know if I was at fault so that I learn for next time.

Cheers

 

[Jimi Hughes]

No issues from my side Stefan it was a good clean race until then, you were very fast and I was amazed to stay ahead for as long as I did. I watched it back last night, however I'm no good with replays and didn't find that overhead view. Way I saw it was you took your normal line pointing at the apex, maybe could have given me more room, but from overhead you were further infront than I remember so it is really just a racing incident. Certainly no hard feelings and congrats on the win, first one on RD is a good feeling and well deserved.

Sorry I left the room, I rolled and damaged the car. Normally I would stick around to the end but had a very long day in work and needed sleep!

Thanks for running the event Stefan W, and for the good close battle Stefan M!

Replays always seem different than when you are driving real-time due to the lag. You both probably saw different from what the replay shows when you were racing.
