Ive tried LaConca, that a nice track , keeps you on you toes,
I agree with the use of the default tracks to start with, ive been playing with the setups and have now a much less snap oversteer
ive been using all the karts, and the geared karts are great fun, do we have a preference on type to start with...

I try to do and host some events with it...i think it's like netkar pro in earlier days...alot of netcode problems.

 

[Rupe Wilson]

Im told its more stable if you make a ded/server for it, i was on the site looking into it....

Im told its more stable if you make a ded/server for it, i was on the site looking into it....

I'm the admin of a simracing website i host all races on a dedi server (quad core 100 mb bandwidth).
we had alot of crash to desktop and collisions due the netcode often you see the others drivers in the wrong position i mean you think to have the other driver 1 meter far from you you try to attack him and you get a collision..
We do some races with 10 drivers,and we decide to wait a more stable relase.
Btw if you wanna try count me in..it's a so great simulator.

 

[Rupe Wilson]

thanks for the info, At the moment it seems more like a time attack game.....its a pitty becaus im sure Rd could handle a kart section...
Theres always kart sim to look forward to....

When i see how netkar has improved since the netcode update.. we can live in hope...

 

[stefano.schivari]

here it's an online battle, 4 drivers on server,if we start to be 8-10 drivers on server the problems starts.
Piboso is a really good coder so for sure he will solve netcode issues (he says that would be the next step of development).
We have just to wait some months i think..

 

[Rupe Wilson]

Theres just somthing about karts... Great vid.. i keep going online but its totally dead..... its a nice idea, and when the netcode is sorted it will be full steam ahead.....

- Beta4 ( that should be released very soon ) will add all the planned features
- Beta5 will focus on multiplayer (netcode) and graphics engine's optimizations and fixes ( and maybe HDR rendering and post-processing effects ).
