have they sorted out the sever/client timer setting? if not it might be best to put up a test server before the race, so drivers can be ready. people usually have problems with these settings when they change .

Planning to do that - thanks for reminding me to say core.ini settings for 60fps are; client - 5/84 server - 5/384 (seems to work best - will set server to this) Are you joining us John? |

I'm confused  I thought the 60 FPS buisiness came with the new 65 patch/mod? If not then what do I need to try this?  However, if we're being used for beta purposes then count me in. As 65's with draft will be worth the arguement with my girlfriend over a race on Weds  Plus the Waza's would need representation at such a historic event  To clear up any confusion; The 60fps patch is completely separate to the new 65 patch. What this patch does is run GPL at a 60fps framerate as opposed to the current 36fps. 60fps is more compatible with modern screen refresh rates so you get smoother/modern looking graphics. It has been extensively tested and does not produce changes in your laptimes. You'll have to try it so see what I mean - RSC had more info but unfortunately it's down. Basically it's an XML file you drop into the GEM options folder which can then be switched on or off - it doesn't 'integrate' itself into your current GPL set up so won't mess anything up. You'll get the file if you sign up... Wednesday seemed to be the only free day before the start of Season 17. I'd say it's a 'historic event' as, although tested online, it's never been tested in a formal race situation and UKGPL have been selected to do that... Can you 'persuade' your girlfriend on this basis Tim? oh this is gay, just another way to get everyone to use GEMcrap...lame.  |

Doesn't Igor do that for you? I thought I read somewhere it does The host set-up can be set to override your settings so yes I think IGOR does it - only need to change your files if you join direct and bypass IGOR oh this is gay, just another way to get everyone to use GEMcrap...lame. Don't know any other way to patch it, maybe they will come up with something when it's released... |

By my reckoning we have 3 places left if you still want to join...
Bernie - I take it you were replying to Geoff rather than asking to join the race.
I will get a PM out today with joining details and leave the server up tonight for practice

Thanks for putting me on the list Vos. Initial test yields excellent results at Monza! Solid 60fps all the way 'round. Very smooth and clear. I also tried it at Jops Siffert and lost loads of frames at the hill but I'm sure it's just my old machine....
Thanks again. This test race is a great idea and should be interesting.
Will
