Password will be updated to the usual one once the server is ready to go, Daiman will let us know here when he has it all sorted, usually a couple of days before the race.

Any of the lmp2 guys notice an issue with engine temps? keep getting a warning light even on default setup and radiator size doesn't seem to make a difference.

 

[David O'Reilly]

Can I check on the storynwith Blue flags?

Do they only apply in your class? (preferred option and faster class cars need to find a way around. Otherwise the GTE and LMP2 cars will be having to stop racing and move aside)
Asking so we all know and are on the same page.
Thanks

Yep always the responsibility of the faster car to maker the overtake in a safe manner, naturally the car been lapped should give some caution and avoid turning in etc. but yeah pretty much just carry on racing and don't be unpredictable eg: shite faster car pull off racing line and slam foot on brakes lol

Yes, the trick is that once you have committed on brakes you need the apex or you are on the grass. So you HAVE to turn in
So the faster car needs to not deprive you of the racing line once you have committed on brakes. He needs to clear you b4 your turn in point or wait and do it on throttle. Some co operation on throttle is easy. On brakes/turn in its not.

I mention this in detail as its very easy for faster classes to forget and feel that if they throw it up the inside and gain overlap its all ok like in one class racing.
Whereas in reality they must avoid putting their car on a bit of road the slower class car HAS/NEEDS to use.
So NB faster cars. The slower classes are on their limit, they WILL need the apex!

Hahaha no way am I out mate, I will be retiring at half race unfortunately, but you've got to do right by the wife still really looking forward to qauly and at least an hour of racing

 

[Paul Jeffrey]

Hey guys,

Just a heads up... I'm having issues with rF2 (still) where the sim decides to run like crap after almost exactly one hour on track. So I'll aim to stay on as long as I can but will have to retire at mid race sadly. If anyway can share some suggestions on what might be wrong I'd appreciate it I've tried everything and anything to sort it out. Basically all sims run fine, but in rF2 as soon as it hits almost exactly 1 hour on track the damn thing gets massive stutters (despite maintaining my locked 60fps). Its annoying as hell!

Regardless, looking forward to the race

replay file?

replay file?

Sadly not, replays turned off

Re package not available. Do you have the URD mod installed (i.e. paid for via URD site?)

There was an update to the px cars released a couple of weeks ago, did you get that one with the Shiro?

Try to join the server via the Steam server list, for rF2, rather than trying to log in via the rFactor 2 server list.

Does it happen in practice as well? I noticed some random frame rate jumps out of no where the other day after id been playing for a bit, only lasted a couple of corners though.

I would suggest deleting the CBash and Shaders folders, located at <rF2_install_dir>\UserData\Log, if you haven't done so already. Also disable replays, as Mr. Bogdan has suggested, and potentially lower some of the more graphically intensive settings.

It would be a shame to lose you part way through the race.

See you on track tomorrow mate!
