Sorry for the delay!
The hard drive failure that taught me the value of backups was a bit more deep rooted than I thought. As a result I now have a new 160Gb drive in the mini and a shiny new putty knife to install it with.  So on with business, this topic is to organise Group 1 for the Session 4 races. The people involved are.... • Valentin K • Donaemous • Pastrl • Charlie T. Brown • slowDan • 20 fingers • Renesis • leoantix The races are... Mt.Panorama & Whitehill. Agreed time I'm going to go right ahead and guess that this weekend is no good (unless someone comes up with good reason for wanting to do it at such short notice). So that gives us the 1st & 2nd of March or the 8th & 9th of March. The agreed time is.... Saturday 8th March 2000 UTC Post your objections and/or agreements below.  Good luck to all of you, this should be a blast! This post has been edited by slowDan: Mar 9 2008, 04:58 AM -------------------- |

Cause they are 2 races, we can play one race at weekeend. One this first weekend and the next one the weekend after. I am available both at 1800 UTC

Weekends 1st/2nd and 8th/9th is both okay for me, but pleeeeeeeaseeee later than 18 UTC, I'm a nightowl, as later as better for me... 20 UTC would be perfetto!
I hope this session is causing not such doubtful things as last one did...  PS: Already now can be said, Mt. Panorama wont work with sunset, we'll end in a laggy mess again.... Pastage all!

I prefer not play at 19,00, cause is dinner time in italy, and last session, with Valentin K, the "the great_uber_waster time ever", we cannot finish in time to get a calm dinner.

LOL, don't mess up an Italian's dinner time, they're touchy there...  I agree, Val, please check out your settings before, in manner that it works properly then. On common MP races you normaly have no problems either, why then? Alora, from pasta to pastage!  -------------------- cheers

Sounds good to me.
@don: polyheavy cars at corniche.....I must try until it's a bit acceptable, this meant all but resolution to minimum. I wasn't sure how much to turn down. And I think the 2 slight hits I received in final chicaine were a fair payback and made the finish nicely close So once more: Sorry  @pas: big FPS trouble round whitehill yesterday, happens often sadly This post has been edited by Valentin K: Feb 21 2008, 06:52 AM --------------------  RRL Winter 2007 RRL Summer 2008 TTT Autumn 2008 - 5849 points  ::: Porsche 550 Rumble Cup ::: Redline GT3 Championship 2009 2nd Rumble Cup |

I wasn't sure how much to turn down. It's not our fault if your computer can't run well the game. Also, you had 2 weeks to check your system. I can understand you are not used to play tourney or similar. Usually, there is a meeting time (about 30 minutes before the match start) in which all players doing all stuffs to play official matches. At start time, they all join the server (host in redline) and doing a little test of the server (host) and connection (the 2 laps with did before starting). All players MUST be on server at starting time and get ready to play. Last session we spent 120 minutes to play all 3 tracks! Consider less then 10 minutes for track... no words

I'm sure he will be managing a few more tests before the big day this time! So how about splitting the session? In some ways I like to get it all done at once. But it does depend on how I do in the first race.

Looks like the weekend after the one we're in now is out for me, underway possibly, and all that jazz. The following weekend(s?) should be just fine however.

Hi everyone!
It's an honor to be with you in the first group, even though I'm here just because I have been lucky! So I'm pretty afraid I'll look you from behind this time. That doesn't mean I'm not fierce!  Anyway, not a good start for me...I reckon I will have to work both of the weekends. I only hope in the timing, cause I don't know it yet. If I'll have evening shift (4pm-11pm UTC) I'll be out. Crossed 20 fingers for me now. My f¨ç˚^~g manager will give me the rota not before Thursday 28th. I'll let you know. P.S. now that my blood is not boiling yet... GOOD LUCK GUYS!!!

Well it looks like we won't be able to organise a super fast race this time. I guess we'll wait until next week before we finalise anything. Make sure to keep us updated as soon as you know anything new, obviously that goes for everyone.

March 10 is fine with me. pleaase do not run sunset on major long length courses as it will cause prolonged lagging and other such issues.
I am available sunday @ 1pm due to church and wife's breakfast obligations. please do not hesitate to hit me back if that time does not concur with the other racers schedules. |

Another big problem for me is the FPS when Valentin shoots the smiles...
I tried already to pull down the graphic settings, but my mac really doesn't like 'em. Suggestion??? -------------------- 20FingerS

I tried already to pull down the graphic settings, but my mac really doesn't like 'em. Suggestion??? I'll remove them for the session and replace em with "normal" text-typed smilies if you want me to My personal FPS problem are maybe the cars and/or the track for the Whitehill race, my FPS never climb above 30 (if I see noone, so this only CAN happen at start). FPS rate goes down to 7 partly, even with everything turned down to the minimum. The quality changes don't seem to affect my FPS , yet they make me slower because I feel I cannot drive the way I usually do with good graphical qualityTested with Stratos HF & 7 AI using em as well Suggestions on this?
