[cheba]

Great job you are doing compiling this!

I just wanted to make you aware that the change to the Kunos Monza sections file mentioned in the changelog seems to have been be missing from the update.

And right you are.
My bad, I had made the change for my own track and forgot to add it.
It's now included and will be up in a few days.

[Mr. Malarkey]

First of all, thanks for all of these! I hate the be That Guy, and I don't want to nitpick, but I was just driving on Zolder 67 last night, and I noticed a few small things. The corner Sterrenwachtbocht is mis-spelled, and also the Jochen Rindtbocht and Jackie Ickxbocht weren't named yet in 1967, as both drivers were very much alive and well at the time.

Glad to hear you like them and thanks for reporting.
It made me realize I forgot to add the other version of the track that I am actually using: ted_zolder67_reworked.

However: I have no clue where your info comes from, but I' d say the sections file for both versions is correct as it is included.
I don't see (or I'm so used to it that I don't notice) any miss-spelling in Sterrenwachtbocht either.

Also I am sure that both Jochen Rindt bocht and Jackie Ickx bocht were already named like that in the 1967 layout.
It was in 1975 that the Jackie Ickx chicane layout was changed to how it is actually.

Btw, Jackie Ickx is still alive and kicking at this time.

 

[Mr. Malarkey]

You know what, I just checked, and at least the last time I downloaded this the Sterrenwachtbocht is spelled correctly. Did an older version have a misspelling? Because I swear it was spelled "Steerewachtbocht." Maybe I'm going mad....

As for the Ickx and Rindt corners, I got my info here: https://www.racingcircuits.info/europe/belgium/zolder.html That could be incorrect info, of course. I just thought it odd when I saw them while driving the track yesterday. Ickx had barely made his F1 debut in 1967, and Rindt's F1 career had only begun in 1964. I was surprised to see that they'd had corners named after them already in 1967, but stranger things have happened.

Again, I don't mean to be nitpicky. I absolutely love the work you've done, and I can't imagine AC without it.

 

[Fanapryde]

Ah yes, I use that as an additional source, but sometimes it shows incorrect / incomplete info.
A misspelling is always lurking, I can't really remember changing it, but I'm sure it's OK.

 

[Mr. Malarkey]

Then I stand corrected.

Should the "kinnekulle" folder perhaps be called "actk_kinnekulle"? Because that's the folder name of the only version of Kinnekulle for AC that I've found.

Ah yes, good spot.
I forgot to add the actk version. I had a WIP Kinnekulle before actk came out with his version. The file works for both though, so you can use it for actk_kinnekulle as well.
I have added it to the list, so it will appear in the next update also.

Yeah, I had already put it into my actk_kinnekulle folder, tested it and it worked well

Just noticed this app - what a great idea! Haven't downloaded yet but will do tomorrow for sure. Is euroracers yas marina going to be added soon by any chance? Or how can i add it myself if you aren't going to add it

Atm I can't really make a correct file matching the real track, since there is no version for AC with the new layout. The chicane after T4 is one step, but there's still the second chicane that IRL has been replaced with T9.

 

[dwightyone]

Ah right - well, it's no biggie, I think you've already provided a mountain's worth for me\everyone to drop in as it is. Thanks for that and thanks getting back to me!

Ehm...no.
The sections files should be added automatically into the data folder of the tracks, overwriting also an already present sections file, should there be one (empty, old, wrong or added in a previous version).
Which track has difficulties ?
