UKAC Season 2 Blancpain Sprint - Misano - Jul 13

[nfsw55]

As Eck Simpson said, the misano beta track has a better cut detection and looks a bit nicer, so I think it could be used for the race.

Btw: Compared to the real times both tracks are quite inaccurate Nevertheless wouldn't have thought that this track is really fun to drive. There are fast, but also very slow sections and some nice overtaking possibilities.

Okay well makes sense to use the newest version available so will do so. I'll get the first post changed for track link and please delete the early version of you downloaded it, thanks.

Server restarted with the newer version of the track

Strange as it doesnt look any 'better' on my system. And i was slower lol

I was hoping to get a skin pack together for round 2 but after sifting through 40pages of skins I only found a handful of Blancpain skins    I'd still like to see some of them on grid but may have to wait until next round now as it looks like I am definitely losing my internet connection from Tuesday for a few days and don't want to burden Pete.  :'(


I would also highly recommend the Helicorsa 'proximity' app for AC. Its very useful for close quarters racing in gt3 for avoiding cars in your blind spots with a subtle radar flash in-cockpit. Worked well when I had feisty Mclarens all over me in the twisties at Nurburgring

No need to load Skins on to the server so in what way were you going to burden me?

don't you? I thought the skins had to be present on server too? plus the driver entry files would need editing again I assume to show correct requested skins.

[Jeffrey]

Seeing as the grid lacked some colour, I can switch to the orange McLaren, or maybe something else a bit different from black.

[Mark J]

a skin/car number helps.  I will put a skin pack on my dropbox that contains some good Blancpain racing skins and if anyone likes them in particular, let me know and will see if I can edit the files in time.

Live timing  (great we can finally do this after all these years!)   on the practise server so far:-....nfsw setting the pace again and most laps turned.

Just done some first laps in anger, tracks got a nice flow to it once you start to learn it

The #59 then

Server doesn't care for skins but obviously the entry file will need pointing to the correct skin.

[Mark J]

How will others see the correct skin then.? Particularly a third party skin. I can't see how that's possible without the server having the same skins 

[picnic]

You can only see skins you've installed locally - so everyone who wants to see the skins (rather than a default white one) will need to download and install the skin pack.

[Mark J]

that's pretty nifty then!

Here is a link to a small collection of Blancpain (and racing) skins

if anyone wants to adopt one let me know
