    It looks like the server is set up for RA 1. There is a RA 1.41. Which do you think we will be running?

    Trying this for one round to see if my PC setup can handle a field of these cars. If not I will pull off on the pace lap.

    You can always scale down the graphic options.
    Try running an off-line race with 32 cars. If you can handle that with 31 AI, then you should definitely be oke for an on-line race. Calculating 31 AI is much heavier on your machine.

    i know :)

    It can sometimes be dependent on the cars and track used (especially as I am using VR).

    Notification

    S397 rolled rF2 back to the 22nd Dec release due to bugs with Mondays update and the hotfix on Tuesday didn't fix things completely.
    The rollback has broken the ability to use the Old UI which some guys may still be using. When they try and join the server it will say they have a different version i.e. 1122

    So now only the new Beta UI will work.

    Well I did about 40 laps. Car feels good, feeling comfortable but wow this track is old school narrow.
    Nothing wrong with that but all the prototype guys will have to be careful in traffic for sure.
    I am aware of the "unknown" issue by the way. Didn’t get chance to sort it tonight but it’ll be fine for race night :)

    Hey,

    1 question for you: can you evaluate the possibility to separate the qualifiyng of the DPI cars from GT3 in two sessions of 15 minutes? For the GT3 cars qualifying with DPI cars is very difficult.
    Thanks

    The series has already been set up with the format of everybody qualifying together. It's not professional to change the rules of the series once it has started.

    You already got the cars from Istanbul. All you need is the track on the event page.

    That's for sure not enough. I've done Istambul with all graphics options at lowest and still a lot of stuttering.

    This race will be one of the first to be run with a big entry list using our new SteamCMD servers which we are hopeful will improve the performance in comparison with our previously used GUI Steam/rF2 servers.
