Test the car 1st with heavy fuel.
Try 1-2 laps.
Then adjust here and there.

watch the replay...you'll see whom it is

well for one it has a dedicated 2MB upload transfer rate, and from that it need to be dedicated to each connection. We need to personally go and install on the server, on teh software, that I dunno. PC will be controlled by remote desktop.

anyone wanna race 2nite?if wan,i create server lo...linkin,u join la....

I can race a bit tonight.

I was driving my new truck for the first time today and I thought it was handling so strange. Then I remembered how many hours of F1C I played on the Momo and Force Feedback this week.

just dont drive your truck like F1..

i thought someone said create server?? i cant see..

i create now...

errrr.... 2mb upload? erm.. izzit ok if we have register for the Streamyx with 1.5mb download and 1.5mb upload? if tat's enough for us, than tat will be cheaper the cost for us..

if tat is possible, i can do the server and host it ourself...

it is not our official race, so no penalities

woe, i have announcement to make.... i'll be switching to Toyota

mayb we should solve the server problem first, switching to other team is small matters.

i dont have very good knowledge of computers, maybe you and linkin can suggest the best possible way to solve our problem.

so from what i read; either we pay to rent a server or set up a new one. which one is better?

any racing today?

Sorry to interupt u guys.

I believe u guys had setup a very nice LYN F1C League... BUT having problem of minor lag and become worst if more players online.

I would share some experiance online racing with u guys but please ignore it if u don't like it. I'm not in IT field but in Mech Eng (XUTM-AJ90).

To run the Dedicated Server, u don't need the high end server, basic desktop PC with 512Mb RAM will do. BUT the most important factor is the bandwidth where the upload speed of the host is the key to reduce lag or lag free.

The host will upload 8kbps per client (i'll try to search back this theory but varies with other games). For F1C & rFactor, i believe it's 8kbps.

The calculation will be like this (plz correct me if it wrong):

1kbps = 8bits
8kbps = 64bits (1 client)

So, for Streamyx SDSL 1.5Mbits = 1500/8 = 187.5kbps

Upload speed 187.5kbps divide by 8kbps (per client) = 23.4 (max clients)

BUT plz allow only max 18 clients connected to server (to avoid bottleneck).

The cost of this line is RM618 per month based on streamyx package and can be hosted in house.

To be succesfull in this league, u guys got to share each others....

SHARING IS CARING !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Cheers,
Madnoren

thanks redline any other solution?

Guys, i've been disscussing ways to solve our problem with edison...

Solution One.

Get our own server and pool our money to pay the fees

Solution Two

A three league system, 5 drivers in one group. Before start of the season everybody must race in a same track. 1-5th fastest will end up in group one, 6th-10th goes to group two etc etc. Drivers will stay in their group untill the end of the season

Solution Three

Everybody qualifying before each race, 1st - 5th fastest will race in host a, 6- 10 race in host b etc etc. with this system, 1st - 5th will ensure at least 4 points and the driver in host b will only to gain 3 points max
