    Agree 500%. No need to tell you how I am voting;):)

    I'm hearing from members that x 10 time acceleration takes quite a hit on performance. That could spell trouble with a big field.
    So I'm taking the course of x 3 time acceleration. Starting 16:00 and ending 23:30 in game.

    After testing 2 GTE cars at Daytona, I came up with the following results:
    Done on 50 liters, soft tires, race mixture setting. So those cars are pretty similar.

    Ferrari 488 GTE = 1,44,923
    BMW GTE = 1,45,105

    Update:

    Ferrari 488 GTE = 1,44,923
    BMW GTE = 1,45,105
    Aston Martin GTE = 1,44,989
    Porsche GTE = 1,44,864

    Still have to test the Corvette, but so far all cars are pretty close together.
    Pretty obvious, but use the Le Mans aero package :)

    Pending the result of the "Detroit EGT Poll", the server is now setup without the Detroit EGT 2018.
    Everybody can enter now.

    S397 has just updated the cars.

    Server not yet updated, understandably since you're all asleep over there :).

    M8, for instance should be v2.05 rather than 1.85 on server,
    Ferrari s/b v1.55,
    etc.

    [unless they add another tick before morning, of course.]

    Thanks Barrett.
    Servers are now updated and Daytona is up again.

    I'm curious what they did with the BOP of the GTE cars :)

    Cool to see that they also added a lot of new skins for the cars. Especially for the LMP2's. Some REALLY cool skins in there now.

    Are these the skins they used at virtual le mans?

    Yes to answer my own question. It's the Virtual 24 hour Le Mans livery pack. Did wonder when I was watching it whether they'd release. Thanks S397 :)

    Has anyone been able to get on the server, besides Eck? He was on just before i first tried - maybe 7 hours ago - but i got a "package not available" error when i tried after working to get my skin back in the game.

    So i figured it was on my end and have been trying to work it out all day, eventually uninstalling rF2, renaming the old folder, reinstalling rF2 to a fresh new folder and reinstalling all the subscribed items, and Daytona and the Ford GT.

    i have:

    Daytona Road Course DX11 v 1.27

    AstonMartin_Vantage_GTE_2019 v 1.55
    BMW_M8_GTE_2018 v 2.05
    Corvette_C7R_GTE_2017 v 2.45
    Ferrari_488_GTE_2020 v 1.55
    Porsche_991RSR_GTE_2017 v 2.45
    URD_GT_2018_Detroit v 1.1

    Orca_07_LMP2_2017 v 2.19

    Still getting "Package not available". Wish they'd tell you more.

    When i joined Longford, it downloaded and installed a Lola_T280 and got me to the car selection menus, indicating a successful connection to the server.

    ???

    I get Package not Available also, and I was on the server a couple days ago.

    Go to the packages folder

    upload_2020-6-26_23-56-1.png
    Add the .rfmod extension to the file it has downloaded

    upload_2020-6-26_23-56-36.png
    Go back to launcher, refresh, and mouse over the mod file to see what is missing

    upload_2020-6-26_23-57-29.png


    As you see for me - a lot is missing

    I don't have a lot of the content, but I do have the Oreca, but I have 2.18 and 2.19, so server is running an old version of that compared to what I have

    I think server needs Oreca 2.19 which was pushed out today
     
  16. Barrett Erickson

    Barrett Erickson Pro Driver

    Thanks, Andrew, Jerry. Yup, it's the ORECA missing at v2.17 updated today to 2.19.

    Must've happened while i was working my skins.

    I don't need much sleep because I'm so innocent and have nothing to process in my dreams :p
