UKPnG Season 10 - Lakeside - Apr 30

[Geoffers]

Any spaces left?

I should be available for this race if you need another car.

Yep, just the one space left. Team SROUK is now complete!

[Wiltshire Tony]

Otto has asked that we put SROUK in our names so that he can recognise he teamies easily.

Will this mess anything else about on the race management side?

Fine with me. I will suggest that the other teams do likewise.

But not using SROUK

Doh! Knew there would be a problem! 

[Hotkeys]

Wow, what a great turn out for this race 

If more people from SROUK want to join, we could perhaps ask one of the other teams, if they have any vacancies.

I am praying that our server copes with the load, it should, but it has been throwing some wobblers recently
not particularly load related, but of all days to go AWOL this would be the worst. 

[Geoffers]

After our races tonight, I will set up the GC WSL server with Lakeside for practice & as a backup.

[EvilClive]

Just a simple question, from a simple person...
What is the easiest way to work the Srouk into our names?  Do I create a new identity within PnG and use that for these races??

Hi Martin, hi all,
I try to explain it:

1) Go to P&G installation folder
2) UserData
3) Folder with your name, (for example Ayrton Senna) and you have to add in front of the name [SROUK]Ayrton Senna
4) Inside the folder above there are 2 files to rename, the first is Ayrton Senna.gal which will become [SROUK]Ayrton Senna.gal and the second is Ayrton Senna.plr which will become [SROUK]Ayrton Senna.plr (you can open it with note pad to read).
This way you can keep all the setup and adjustments of the game (wheel, graphics card etc. etc.).

I forgot, you can make a copy of the original files and use the new ones that you renamed or old ones simply by selecting them in the game (double user).

I hope that what I wrote is understandable...but I have some doubts


See you Thursday
Otto

[EvilClive]

Thanks Otto, all quite clear.   

But that does not mean that I cannot totally screw it up!!! 

[Clive Loynes]

I can report that both Clives have managed to create their [SROUK] persona and were on the server tonight along with Otto and Federico.

So if we can do it then the rest of you have no excuse.

Matt was still his old self but then what do you expect at his age?   

[Geoffers]

I noticed the race server is currently set for only 16 drivers!

[Clive Loynes]

I noticed the race server is currently set for only 16 drivers!

It usually is when in practice mode and running a number of sims at the same time.

When it's a proper race, the other sims are shut down and you get the full monty!

[Stefan aka Postal]

Hey guys, it looks like work will prevent me from doing any racing tonight. So if there is another SROUK member who wants to participate i will give up my spot on the grid. If not, i will probably be home by the time qualy for Race 2 starts and will attend the last race.

The GTR2 servers seems to default to 16 when it is reset after other sim events.
I usually remember to set things to max when I reset the servers after our races
but it doesn't always happen.

Yeh the GC ones do the same, have to reset to 28 every time.
