That's what I'm finding the hardest thing about converting to rFactor as opposed to what I shall now start referring to as 'All that other ****e' ... braking ... you really do need to know when and how. Currently I'm just constantly 'losing it'

 

[Ryan Callan]

Hi Ryan,
Got a question, how can I get the settings back to the ones that are legal in the race?
I've dicked around with them and now I'm not sure if I'm practicing with the right ones. I have to admit I need practice or I'll be spending too much time apologising ... I keep over running the braking zone.
Cheers

While your racing you can toggle the 'F' keys. We run the standard fixed setup in these events. We also run NO assists aside from auto-clutch.

Ok, just to reiterate..
The setup should be ...
Invunerability OFF
Steering Help OFF
Braking Help OFF
Opposite Lock OFF
Spin Recovery OFF
Auto Pit Lane OFF
Stability Control OFF
Anti-Lock Brakes OFF
Traction Control OFF
Auto Shift OFF
Auto Clutch On
Auto Reverse OFF

What about the damage and AI stuff ?

And sorry to be naive ... but how do you ensure nobody just switches on the aids when you're racing?

thanks for your help

[Ryan Callan]

No AI toggle and for this particular event damage is set 80%, most other events are 100%.

The assists are set by the server which disallows switching them on and off

Auto reverse is allowed actually - we can't set that either way.

Hi all
sorry guys but the last problem stop me at work cannot race this evening :-(
I think it will be a long night for me.
next time, and GLA and fun guys

 

[Ivo Simons]

Server is up.

 

[Brian Uniacke]

Ok ... I'm a first timer and I have some questions...

Does damage get fixed in the pits?
Should I ever press the esc key? ... or does that essentially drop me out of the race
Every time I've ever gone in to the pits there's been no mention of fuel although I presume in a race as long as this I will have to refuel

 

[Brian Uniacke]

Will we be using teamspeak?
If so, am I correct in assuming it will be the rFactor room
I am in that room now.
