VWSR S4: Virtual World Series by Renault (F3.5)

[Xavier Poirel]

I'm in of course ^^

 

[Ville Leppala]

Good thing i already updated my rf2....

 

[Victor Ivanov]

I too updated mine but the bad thing is that I have no idea how to revert it

 

[Nicolas Delamare]

Victor and Ville, do a secondary rF2 installation !

Sure but first I need to find out how to do that

 

[Nicolas Delamare]

DL the Lite version here:
http://rfactor.net/web/rf2/rf2dl/

And when the installer asks the folder you want to create, rename it differently than your current installation !

I have a "rFactor2" install in Build 880 and a "rFactor2bis" install in Build 906, and packages folder are separated !

Important note:

The VWSR server is still in build 880.

I hope we can update the server by Thursday before the test/club race.
But it's a possibility that it can't be done in time...

We are not going to race the final in build 906 without a test with a big grid!!!

Would be nice if it gets updated.

 

[Ville Leppala]

Yeah i dont understand why not just update the server?

 

[Nicolas Delamare]

"Yeah i dont understand why not just update the server?"

Simply because we know what we have right now, and we don't know what we gonna find with the new one ! Remember the issues we've had when the 880 was released.

Guys you dont even need to have a different packages folder. Just point the mod manager at the one you want it to use.

 

[Gijs van Elderen]

Indeed,

I've 4 installs and 1 packages folder on another disc.

 

[Ville Leppala]

"Remember the issues we've had when the 880 was released.

Nope, not really. I never had any issues with 880 build.

 

[Victor Ivanov]

So basically we will not use the latest version for the last race?

I thought the whole point of moving over to rf2, is that we don't have to have a gazillion installs like with rf1. Now, not only do we have to do the same anyway, but it's more clumsy than with rf1.

1 main install
2 server installs (back up servers for the club races)
1 install to test stuff before we update or implement settings on the servers or on my main install.

If all goes well the VWSR is updated tomorrow. But that is out off my hands i don't have the admin rights to do it...

 

[Nicolas Delamare]

"Nope, not really. I never had any issues with 880 build."

The fact is that NOBODY had an issue with the previous Build (don't remember the number), everything was clear.With the 880, maybe you didn't have any issue, but me, Jason, Abdoulaye, James Sadler and some other guys did have that.

 

[Victor Ivanov]

And here you are wrong My main issue with 880 is the annoying stuttering with the 64 bit version. Anyway, I have the 880 installed now and even the plugins work, miracle!

Well normally we don't but in the cases of a build being released this close to a race it's safer to stick with the build that works rather than dive head on to a new one before first testing it

Yeah but isnt the thing here that 880 is buggy for people? Im so very confused... We dont want to jump into a new build in case its buggy so we stay with a build that is already buggy and giving problems to drivers?
