That pace you saw was a qualifying pace. I was racing bartl for 2nd place, he was quick but nothing like the pace in the screenshot. The top 5 runners in the server are okay while the rest is clumsy and stupid. Expect that from public servers anyway. But as I have said they are really really fast guys. But we have fast drivers too in MSR.

LOL I got a call from David Coulthard..

This is my third (Bahrain, Suzuka, Monza) that I got a DC.

When people start leaving the server I think that is when connection starts dropping people.

LOL I dont see why I have to get mad at you,

I'll take note. We will bring up donation thread and hopefully can get a good server.

Anyway good start from everybody. I was expecting chaos to be honest. I was enjoying the race very very much but sad it's shorter than Indi. Very sad.

Yup, it's the boost. I'm on a high rpm, basically boost 10 can survive 30 laps on a fast shift. 9 can be just about you make it or not. But boost 8 and 7 is good to go. My plan was to use boost 8 at start until the first stop I will be low on fuel and start to dial in the boost to 4 or 5 just to be safe. But anyway, it's all in the shifting style, I was quite conservative on the shifting to be honest. All I need was the extra rpm on the 6th and 7th gear.

But in the race today, I shift to boost 7 at start n plan to use 5 or 4 later part of the second stint.

Jiading, hmm this track is an alien track for me. First because of the dull layout of the track makes me not wanting to even have a run there.

But, to me, in a league such as this, its a challenge bcos some of the tracks should be new to you. I like that uncertainties anyway.

So, first I'm gonna watch some vids of Shanghai particularly onboard and heli view. Get few laps and learn first few turns first. Well, we will see who is the man of Shanghai. I think this track gonna suit someone who can utilize throttle range effectively.

C u guys at Shanghai.

Ooops, I dont have the Jiading track yet. Downloading it now Penz.

Hmm, mara should we have this file as well, Jiading Start Light Fix

http://rs36.rapidshare.com/files/16415938/...rtlight_Fix.rar

http://www.rfactorcentral.com/detail.cfm?ID=Jiading

http://www.malaysiansimracers.com/S4/Replay/R1-Bahrain.Vcr

I take the file from 1st page.

Anyway, mara I got an rfm mismatches. Trying to reinstall the track anyway.

That track is the Raceking version correct? Because I don't have Raceking version. Bcos last time when I have raceking version it has conflict with ISI version where I can no longer access the ISI version anymore.

If you have raceking version installed, according to my experience and what I read,

1. You can no longer run the ISI version, It has conflict.
2. There is a lap counting bug

Anyway if we were to run Raceking, then everyone must installed a raceking version. But I suggest the ISI version although I prefer the raceking. This is due to some buggy coding about the Raceking version.

Penz if you have the Obuto screens, means that you have both version installed. So Im guessing in order for me to participate in the server I have to installed the raceking version that has the obuto loading screens just to avoid mismatches.

Mara can you try remove the raceking version and leave only ISI intact and rehost. I think with that no issues would arise for those who doesnt have the raceking versions.

Bcos if you run the ISI version, it would never have the obuto screens in the first place. You can try check the Jiading.rar folder for there is a standard loading screens like the one we have in Brianza.

Both track has similar layout, but if you try removing the Obuto(Raceking version). You would get a clean ISI version. It looks similar but honestly if you look carefully it is not.

Yup I know penz u installed the Jiading from rfactorcentral. But bcos there are conflicts between Obuto and ISI, you must installed one only to avoid mismatches.

I don't think there is an issue with ISI version. The one that penz tested was Raceking version.

I seconded Penzman motion. Although I applaud ISI but honestly they are terrible track maker. They should have followed Simbin track quality and accuracy.

Nevermind, while maranello is looking for fixes I would have it tested as well.

First of all, I forgot to mention that I'm still happy with any choices of tracks.

It's just that rfactor modding scenes evolved, just like FSoNE 2006 in which we are currently running should be superseded next season by either CTDP latest mod or MMG or whatever mod that the admins or community seems best at given time.

We never questioned your track picking ability, it's just that something in the community had just been introduced and we think (maybe it's just penz and me) is a great replacement. But we still respect the final decisions and abide by it. You guys are the FIA and we are the team owners, sometimes what we say might hurt the FIA but the FIA has all the rights to the final venue.

And, sometimes what the FIA said might hurt the team owners as well. But given the free participation (although sometimes some of us chip in a SMALL bit of donation) we have always reserved the comments so that all parties are satisfied.

Personally, I respect you as a person and what you did to the community is brilliant. The stats, the organization, the chartered rules, etc. So if by what we did here had undone your work we by all means are prepared to give in and tolerate your decision gracefully.

Let there be a good argument and I believe we are professionals and we can always achieve good ending via discussion. I do hope I can get your response Evohahn. Again we will abide by the final decision.

Great project Kimi, as always u are really talented in these stuffs.

Anyway, the new server is one hell of a great server. We did a dsl rate and it was like a racing with AI. It doesn't lag and you can spy more effectively. Now donation time starts.

Soze, thanks to the connection we manage to do real bumper to bumper action.

ISI BMW F1 the latest from rfactorcentral or ISI BMW Sauber that comes standard with rfactor plain package?

IIRC somebody mentioned it was in Spore.

Bro Madnor, its like racing on LAN IMO.

Good bro madnor, so hopefully we can test F1. I think its the ultimate challenge for driver and connection likewise.



It should be like this:

sory...wrong account...again..
