Assetto Corsa Round 4 Mont Tremblant GT 1969 - Thu May 15, 2025

Would anyone like to send me a replay file of a couple of hotlaps for the onboard video for broadcast?

 

Single car on track replay file, cos I do the replay capture and I can see all the telemetry for commentary

 

Im working so drive safe!!!

 

Actaully ive watched my work schedule totally wrong...got waken up by early call asking where the hell am i and apparenty should have been working allready elsewhere. In taxi now late only 30mins.
Client will be mad as hell, own company anooyed and personally feeling emotions of joy and happiness since can race on thursday

 

this track just gives me checksum errors or crrash game

 

ok works, track needed manual install instead of content manager which left out the ..system/shaders

 

Actually drove amazing race. Flatout 60 minutes with really good consistency. Considering no practice at all got everything out of the car full lenght of the race.
Just wasnt fast enough.
Restart i really didnt know were we supposed to be in order we were or in Q order....

 

I had a good start and when Maddie went into the pits after lap 2 (false start?) I was in P2 until the server restart.. Also confused whether it was qualy position or not but since we had done about 5 laps already the current position would have been more logical. Maddie did go in front of me though at the restart while Kiril did not. So in P3 after the restart with Kiril chasing but he made a mistake I think and dropped back. Then the pit stops came and just as apparently a lot of others my pit crew did nothing. Was that because of the server restarts ? Not sure.. But being in VR and not knowing what to do I hit ESC which locked my controls for 30 seconds.. very frustrating, I must have spent 50 seconds in the pits. Luckily others had the same but not sure how they solved it. Some seem to have come in twice or went back and forth in the pits.. strange. I had the new CSP update installed. After the pit cycle I did lose time to Kiril who was now about 6 seconds behind and slightly faster. I pushed hard to remain in front and that worked out. Happy with P3, Maddie and Michal were too quick this time. I'm still struggling with finding a good setup and it's pretty clear that others had more downforce than me.
Nevertheless a good race with minor mistakes. I love the track though. It looks good and it is great to race. Not many overtaking opportunities unfortunately.
See you next round!

 

I saw in the broadcast (thanks Woodee) how Michal struggled in the pits, and it was more less the same for me. Went into my pit stall and nothing happened, so my first guess was, I am not in the stall correctly, so I moved a bit back and forward - still nothing happened. I was tight on fuel so it was not option to continue. I waited a bit puzzled in my box and needed quite some time to see, ah it does nothing because in the pit options there was add 0 liters and do not change tyres...
Stupid, but yeah could have been avoided by reloading the set up, but I checked that before the restart and wing/fuel etc. were was I set them, but yeah I should have checked the pit options, too. Although it is strange that pit options were set to zero...

Apart from that, not much to say. I tried to risk more regarding the wing settings, car was a bit more of a handful than I like. But topspeed was good, which I thought was more important that the speed in the corners. Probably not true here, but yeah, gap was so big, unlikely that the wing settings were the game changer for me, because even though it was not a lonely race for the most of the time, in the end the gaps to the cars in front were quite big again. Some work to do I guess.

 

I was indeed confused when people started pitting but then doing a little shuffle in the pits

I did notice John say in chat about the qually order. Restarting put my car on the front row (which as you know I can only remove on green light). Does AC do admin chat commands? If my car was DQ'd on the race countdown would I still be able to view the race full screen?

The top 2 did race away from the field on the formation lap which left a few people behind. Maybe we should have some contingencies if we are switching to formation lap? I personally prefer a rolling start for broadcast because it means I can hide getting myself off the grid. I only found this "/pit <id>" which teleports me to the pits? I don't know if that works though.

Just another note.... if some of you can change skins so we don't have duplicates that would be great (makes me less confused! ) Current duplicates are @John vd Geest & @Laurent Londes / @Toni Talvitie & @Mitchell Kakotsky. Possibly @Kiril Kirilov & @Paul Upham ? Although I remember there being slight differences before, last night they both looked like McLarens, not Alfa Romeo.

Tried something a little different with the onboard lap presentation this time, hope it looked OK. I know I have to balance the volumes levels of it for next time.

Last 2 rounds should be QUICK!!

 

I don't think we have duplicate skins, they have different driver numbers and small differences (like F1 teams). John and me drive for the same team kind of

 

I get that, are you able to do that teleport pits command on race countdown rather than me having to do it after green flag manually? I put my SteamID in the main thread if that was a possible workaround.

 

Yep, false start. My clutch pedal is flickering and the same thing happened in R3. The pitstops breaking is directly due to the restarts. Race restarts reset the pit menu in the setup for some reason, so you need to manually re-load the setup before the race starts. It's a shame because it seems like the majority of the grid was affected.

 

I was running 7-1 wings and it worked well, but there's so much time to find with getting the ride height correct and deciding how much rake you want. There really is a fine line between grip through a high-speed corner and binning it due to how the ground effect works.
