In case you have been hiding under a rock, there are GTL lobby problems. But.... all is not lost!
This is what I did to connect to the server:1) Stick this file in your "C:\GTL" folder. http://www.humyo.com/F/9349539-1469477767 2) Fire up GTL as normal, then go to multiplayer. 3) Connect to IP (not lobby) 4) Add the IP to connect to (81.19.209.165). 4a) Log in (this looks like when you log into the lobby, it's suggested you use a password that you don't use elsewhere) 5) Click on the server & you're in (after a brief wait) 1) Download & run this HOSTS HACK 2) Start GTL & select to the lobby 3) Register a new lobby account (I suggest the same name but with a blank email & password) 4) Log in with your new account & you should see a list of serversWith that fix, there is no need to touch your host file (unless you've already changed it, then you would need to remove the GTL changes you did). If this fix has not worked for you, then please check out this thread for more info/questions: https://www.simracing.org.uk/smf/index.php?topic=6869.msg119486#msg119486But most importantly, do not suffer in silence (also, don't leave it till the Thursday night ).

Can I still use the AntiDeco patch or should I use the alternative lobby thing for this race?

err.... we still need to know who can get in via the new lobby, before a decision is made. But the signs are that you should try the new lobby method

Struggling to break through the 1:46 limit in the Healey. Once again I can't get the front tyres warm.

Not the greatest track to return to, I really struggle round street courses. I think i end up concentrating on the walls and struggle to find the proper lines. IT normally ends with me understeering into a wall Done a few laps round here to work out where the corners go. Jags not much fun around here, and who in their right mind would take Plymouth

Just want to try the connection before Thursdaynight Have found the GTL Lobby thread so won't bother here with comm issues.

As it seems we so far have a 100% success rate of our drivers getting access to the "new Lobby", our UKGTL Server has now been updated to broadcast in the new lobby too. This is what to do to connect to the server:1) Download & run this HOSTS HACK 2) Start GTL & select to the lobby 3) Register a new lobby account name (your old one with a blank password should be fine) 4) Log in with your new account & you should see a list of serversThis race will now use this lobby method on Thursday (I'm 99% sure ) Any chance somebody can test they can see & access our server with Long Beach on please?
