Apps AC_TrackCycle 2.8.3

Thomas! you did a great job, but just a question, Can this work with the SOL mod?

 

[ThomasGocke]

Hello Thomas,

Crap, 'cause I've been sitting on this for hours and still can't get it done. Once it runs on the server there it has the welcome messages and everything displayed but now it doesn't run anymore.

I have a Linux server that is set up and working. Stracker also runs on the server only Tracker_cycle doesn't work. What can I do or would there be alternatives?

Best regards,

you know that for two AC server plugins to work you need to relay the UDP communication?
I would suggest to use AC_TrackCycle as broadcaster by activating <add key="external_plugins" value="OtherPlugin, 11001, 127.0.0.1:12001"/> and then using these ports in sTracker.

Have you tried getting it to work under windows? If you haven't got it working under windows I might be able to help.

I don't see a reason why it shouldn't.

Hallo Thomas,

many thanks for your quick answers. One more question: Which file do I have to start with Mono?

Best regards

 

[ThomasGocke]

theoretically Mono has WinForms libraries, so you might have luck with AC_TrackCycle.exe, which has a GUI. AC_TrackCycle_Console.exe has no GUI, so should be more "compatible", but as I said, I have never tried it, and only "heard" someone got it to run.

Maybe if you ask there, someone can help.

Have you got any pointers? How would one set up a time and 'speed' of time and weather options?

 

[ThomasGocke]

SOL mod is purely client side, right?
I don't see why there should be any difference with and without TrackCycle.
TrackCycle.exe only starts acServer.exe and replaces the track name in the server_cfg.ini

server_cfg.ini manual is here:
https://www.assettocorsa.net/forum/index.php?faq/dedicated-server-manual.28/
You should be looking for
SUN_ANGLE=-8 ; angle of the position of the sun
and
[WEATHER_0] ; mandatory section for weather.
GRAPHICS=3_clear ; it's exactly one of the folder name that you find into "content\weather"

I don't think the server will change the time, so no "speed" of time either.

If there is something I'm missing here, please let me know.

Thnx for your reply Thomas!
The ultimate goal would be to be able to have a race like 24h Le Mans, preferably with changing weather... *a man can dream...right?!
I've not looked into it that much, but from what I've read the time multiplier now would need the content manager server part, I'm unsure if this would work together with TrackCycle?

See:

https://www.reddit.com/r/assettocor..._to_setup_sol_day_night_online_race_24_hours/

 

[ThomasGocke]

That would need a different acServer.exe, a different network protocol.
I think it will keep being a dream in AC, or at least TrackCycle will not help you in this regard.

 

[drifttony]

Just thinking out loud...could TrackCycle call the content manager server part? (I'm only talking about the time multiplier to have a day/night cycle)

 

[ThomasGocke]

I'm sorry, I don't think I can help you here.

Hello,

I have a question, is it possible to add a ping monitor to this TrackCycle ? and should the ping be too high for a driver who is then kicked by the server ?

Yours sincerely
Stefan

 

[ThomasGocke]

nope, sorry, ping is not provided by the API

 

[scottiedawg66]

can someone help me understand if this tool will work with servers configured and launched from content manager?

I rent a server via Elite Game Servers, for drifitng. The drifting sessions are a Practice session, is it possible to use Track Cycle with practice sessions? In the cfg.ini you're supposed to put the track name and how many laps to trigger the track cycle. So i wasn't sure if it's possible to have the track cycle based on time running out on the practice session.

Thank you in advance

I have a problem with this where the server says its missing "" like if its missing a car named nothing, i checked through the cars and everything seems fine, any suggestions on how to fix?

Hi ,

I'm in the same case, do you find an answer ? Thanks a lot

Never found a solution, have to manually switch tracks.

Brilliant app but struggling with something... if I want to do a track (e.g. Brands Hatch Indy) that has different layouts it won't load. Tracks with one layout are perfect. Using brands as an example I'm putting the following:

ks_brands_hatch,indy,5 to indicate 5 laps around the indy circuit. And I'm putting this in the track cycle section. Any ideas? Thanks!!

I'm having the exact same problem as people above...

When launching throught he stock launcher I get the message: "This server has content that is not available" while I DO have it, since I can play it single player.

When I play on the server through content manager it will load all the way and then throw this error:
