    Thanks for the headsup. I'll have to reset the server after the updates.
    Everybody make sure you get the GTE updates, also the LMP2 drivers.

    The consequence of the GTE patch of today is that you have to build a new setup. Your saved setup is not the same any more.

    Formation lap procedure

    How does each race start?
    1. The race starts by a formation lap
    2. From the second to last corner we go double file
    3. the overall pole-sitter stays ON THE SPEED-LIMITER from that moment on.
    4. Green flag for the overall polesitter when crossing the start / finish line. The rest of the field also goes.
    5. The rest of the field does     NOT overtake anyone BEFORE crossing the start-finish line.

    There are 2 red lights on the waiting list. If you are not sure if you can make the race, please un-register from this event so they can move to green.

    Thanks in advance :)

    The race password has been set already. Because you are a red light, you can't see it. Only green lights can.

    FYI looks like latest build has memory leak on dedicated server. VEC cancelled their race because server was running out of memory and cars were warping/disco left and right. Not sure how much memory the SRO server has, but s397 might be pushing out a hot patch again *soon*. sigh.

    s397 is like a bunch of college kids running a business out of the back of a van, down by the river. :rolleyes:

    Thanks for the report Jerry. I am monitoring the server now and am seeing possible leaks. Will report back later on what we decide to do. The server has 16GB. Let's hope for a patch before tomorrow. If not, we can either postpone the event or try restarting the server just before the event and hope it holds up.

    It seems they lack proper regression testing! I guess it's hard to do when you write code in a van down by the river. Ahh, good memories of C. Farley :)

    Just ran a race elsewhere and the admins rolled back to 1120 because of the issues reported and they were also seeing. S397 says they're working on it, so hopefully it will be fixed by race time, but...

    ... otherwise we will postpone the Sebring race to the back of the series and will continue with Mont Tremblant in 2 weeks time.
    I will be checking for an update until short before the race.

    It's not looking good for the event tomorrow. I verified the latest build was leaking memory. Had to restart the server because memory usage was at 95%. John will provide more details in the morning.

    Yes, all our event times are GMT.

    i sometimes feel like my build is leaking memory too, but i think that's a different thing.
