Where do you set "variable weather"
There are two ways to do this.
1) When confirming the race details (race length & which sessions etc), there is a slider for "Weather". You can slide it from '0% rain' to '100% rain" & finally 'Variable' is the last setting (IIRC).

2) Use the Weather file available from the "Generate weather" link... (which isn't currently visible in our race thread Shocked whoops! Wink).... More info about generating your own weather can be found Here.

30% wet - 1:52 in the Cobra 289 with Intermediate tyres, slightly slower with the standard tyre.  Lotus Elan much easier to drive 1:54 not as much fun though  Wink

intermediates, soft or wets are not part of the p&g mod... so you can't use em.

Quote from the P&G tyre manual

"Unfortunately, some limitations of the GTR2 code, forced us to include some compromises.
Although in this manual you will find all the information about the rain tyres present in the mod, loading the mod you will also find in the garage the typical three rain tyres, intermediate, wet and monsoon types. All three of those tyres are the same rain tyre as described in this manual. The reason they are present is to make the AI cars properly pit on changing conditions, and continue their race. You can ignore their existence and stick to the manual."

FYI - I have now set the server at "quite" variable* but starting with 30% rain.

(* = you're unlikely to see the variable effect while practicing.... but you never know  Wink)


If this causes problems for your practicing, let me know & I will set the server back to just 'random' weather.

While, if you didn't understand a word of what I just said... don't worry  laugh

Sorry mate, I didn't have that problem. Maybe I wasn't driving fast enough over the elevation changes Wink
Though I will say that some cars seem easier then others.

p.s. Anyone got any wet/dry laptimes for any cars from their own group?
