I need to confirm that the track link works as the original download link for this 'reboot' version has changed

Any ideas on a decent lap time around Island course?

Hi AC guys, not tried AC multiplayer before but I may join Stew & give this a go. Anything else I need to download apart from the cars & track?

Download link doesn't work for me still. I got it from somewhere else previously
I just get a "Mega" symbol, that goes nowhere. See below

MEGA failed to load because

The file "js/mega-1_a912f00d42bf33c407fa616eb9cae4ad968b4d9150db445e88193331dc3a90ae.js" could not be loaded.

I just cut and paste the address and got the track download no probs, then used the manager to install. It’s a great render of the track.

This is what I used before, if anyone has any trouble, try this:

Oh, I am talking abou the mod, not Oulton

I downloaded the mod as well, worked ok.

Welcome here gents. Good to have you around.
I think you should aim for the one minute mark here.

Didn't think you would be interested in these kind of race cars Geoffers. :P  You should be quickly up tot speed with these though.

1 minute!!! Not round the Island circuit, unless I missed something and it’s F1 week!????

Practice server is up and running

I think I was getting 1 min 02 something earlier. I could be lying of course  ;D

Just for clarification is this a new track or the same version we have run before.. with no version file in the track folder i have no idea if the version i have is the same.

You could get round the Fosters layout in about a minute, but not Island layout. BTCC lap in the 1:20’s on that layout.

the server was set to the wrong layout earlier, that could be why?

i think it is the same version, just the original website is no longer active

Yes I used to be strictly historic cars (GTL, P&G), but have been driving RaceRoom a lot recently with more modern cars & get on particularly well with the WTCR cars on there so I thought I would try out the AC TCR cars. I did a few laps around Oulton Park Island this afternoon in the Focus & was actually quite impressed with it.

I also like both versions but think the AC version seems a bit more real

The AC versions do not seem to understeer on the power like the RRE tourers do. Not sure though which is the most realistic. ???

For me, mostly more grip on or off the power. These turn in better, which keeps fooling me, as I expect
to go straight on, but the car turns  :o Not sure which I prefer as well. These sound more interesting, at least
the Vauxhall does.

Oh, stracker seems to be working now as well. I did a quick 2 laps and got a low 1:29, can do better
but it's a start.

How does the tracker pick up lap times?

You need to go online to our server, and it tracks your times
Then, click on the link on the 1st page here

You need to have the ptracker mod installed then, it'll talk to stracker on the server, and monitor your laps.

Where do I find Ptracker?

Not sure I have installed ptracker, perhaps I have.

Get it from Racedepartment: https://www.racedepartment.com/downloads/ptracker.3509/download (https://www.racedepartment.com/downloads/ptracker.3509/download)
Need to log in to get it

Hi all,
This combo looks good. I'm assuming there is no need for registering? Just turn up in a while? See you later if that's the case.

Jos Ogos (JO Simracing)

no need to register, just turn up and race tomorrow night  :)

Yes, tomorrow! Thanks.

Sorry guys, my problems with AC where still not solved. Content Manager doing weird stuff. I will be going back to the Kunos UI, as that seems to work without problems. Hope to be back for the next race with you.

Thanks for the races guys, was good fun. Sadly not as quick as I could have been as been practicing all week in the Alfa, to then find that only a limited number of each model is allowed. As the Alfa’s were taken, opted for the Leon, but without a setup. Took a while to figure out, but all came good in race two, my first ever win! I look forward to the next round and some setup work on the Leon. Cheers and congratulations to all podium finishers.

Enjoyed my first race in AC, second race though was one of my worst online races for sometime.

Race one went well after the opening couple of laps where I lost several places due to not being aggressive enough or just being in the wrong place at the wrong time. Eventually moved up from 8th to 5th at the finish only just failing to wrest 4th from Lade on the line.

Second race was just one long catalogue of errors. Forgot to put the car in gear at the start, went for a gap at Cascades which closed & I think resulted in Frex being pushed off track. At the hairpin the car in front (don't know who  ???) got out of shape & I ran into them. A couple of laps later I lost control at the chicane & went grasstracking losing a couple of places. Caught up to Jos them bumped him into a spin, let him regain the place before finally taking him out again when I got a wheel on the grass braking for the hairpin. Quit in disgust at my abysmal driving.

Congrats to the winners & podiums  :clap: :clap:

Would like to race these again if you guys will have me back after such poor driving. >:(

A couple of questions though.
Can the driving position be altered? I cannot find a way to move the seat to get a better view out or of my mirrors.
Is a virtual mirror available? Only mirror I can see is my left door mirror which is not very helpful for seeing where other cars are. For some reason my look left, right & behind controls did not work in the races even though I had mapped buttons to them, hopefully sorted that now though.

@Stew: Because these cars all use the same physics, it is possible to transfer your setup between the different cars if the one you wanted to drive is not available on the server. To do this you would have to go to where all of your car setups are stored (C:\User\your name\Documents\Assetto Corsa\setups). Here, all the cars in game are listed, and each one has a setup folder for each of the tracks. Go into your tcr_Alfa\Oulton Park folder and copy the the 2 files in there (.ini file and .sp file) to the tcr_Leon\Oulton Park folder, and now your Alfa setup will show up in game when you drive the Leon. (Takes longer to describe that, than to actually do it..!).

@Geoff: When in car move your mouse over to the right side of the screen and a list of in-game apps will appear. Look for Onboard Settings - this allows you to change seat position and FOV and save for each car. There is definitely a virtual mirror. I have re-mapped all my keys, but I think by default it is toggled with one of the function keys F1-F12. Try them all, most do something or other..

Fun races with lots of action. Got pole by a whisker from Kimi, but trademark poor start and too much caution on cold tyres lost me some places on the first lap. Passed Lade for P3 and then a long battle with Larry for P2. Very close, good fun. Larry eventually went slightly wide at the last corner and I squeezed by for P2 with Kimi a long way ahead.

Second race started at the back and after some early shenanigans was a long way behind. Had some fun battles along the way though. Congrats winners and all, cyu next time.

Geoff & Frex, it was so good to see and racing with you guys since GTL days ( or is it so, can't remember really :D ). Race 1 was lonely ride to flag, nothing to report really. Race 2 was good action, after clean my way to P4 I was pushing like hell but time runs out just when I start to be at attack zone. Good to see some new faces, see you at next race.

i think all the cars are the same, just different skins

Thanks Frex, didn't realise there was a menu to the right of the screen  ::). Also got the virtual mirror up too, F11 I think it was, cheers. :thumbup2:
