    The road course is almost perfectly flat and runs clockwise. Two track configurations are possible. One includes a hard chicane at the end of the front straight and involves 12 turns at length of 1.945 miles (3.13 km). Without the chicane, the track has nine turns and a lap length of 1.915 miles (3.08 km). Portland is classified as an FIA Grade Two circuit.

    Which of the 2 layouts will be used for this series?
    Chicane or No chicane?

    Need HELP!!!
    On entering the server I get the following error
    Error message.png
    and the cockpit view looks like this
    Cockpit view.png

    I have
    1. unsubscribed to all of the workshop items.
    2. deleted the vehicle files from the installed folder
    3. deleted any mention of them from the rF2 UI content screen
    4. re-subscribed to all items

    I still get the errors. I recall people having issues in the test race. What was the solution?

    I logged onto the server yesterday and all was OK. Weird

    Any ideas?

    I'm on the server now. No issues. I tried Cadillac.

    Even tried the Corvette and the Flat 6. No problemo.
    Might be something with your Flat6 version?

    I'm on the server with no problems now but I'm the only one here so I wonder if its when there are other Flat6 drivers around when I get a problem

    Stay there, I will try again

    OK so when Rob logged in with a Flat6 car. I logged out of the server and back on and got the same error as above. So I don't know what is happening. Give up for now :(

    Can it be that you have some skin pack applied to the Flat6?
    Some time ago I had a similar issue with the Endurance pack. Unsubscribing the mod that used the original cars did the trick then..
    (Although, I have to say I did not get en error, but in my case no cars were shown in the selection box)

    You could not select a Flat 6 car on the server?
     
  18. Rob Vandenberg

    Rob Vandenberg Pro Driver

    No....
    Paul has this issue (error) on the Portland Server with the Flat6. I don't have problems... (however ..... o_O)
    I was trying to help trouble shooting by logging in to the server.
    In my note I suggested that it might be a skin thing because a few weeks ago I had this issue on the La Mans server where I could (then and there) not load my BMW M8. That turned out to be a installed mod that modified the cars in the Endurance pack. So I thought this could be something similar...

    Ooops. I do have a problem now!
    The same as Paul. This afternoon all was well. Now I als get the error. At the moment I have selected my car....

    I'm starting to think that the DPI Cadillac might be corrupted.
    The Corvette GT2 is S397 and the Flat 6 never had problems before.

    I will test the server tomorrow with the DPI Acura to see if the problem is solved by changing the DPI.
