UKGTR Super Endurance Non-Championship race - Silverstone - Dec 28

[Dave 'Gizmo' Gymer]

First post of this thread now updated with more details. Main thing to be confirmed now is where we will do the timed rest stop.

First post of this thread now updated with a little map and some text showing where to take your mandatory rest stop. I'm expecting that most people will try and combine it with a pit stop so I've mandated leaving via the pits to make rejoining the circuit safer..

I've just downloaded and installed silverstone but my cars floating and rocking.
I wouldnt mind but looking at the rythm of the rocking it looks like some one having a bit in my lambo.

Haven't seen any problems yet when dring on Silverstone. But I have only played in offline so far,maybe a problem on the server ?

[Simon Gymer]

Are there really not enough tracks in the main game to use an original track? The short ones never get used, maybe that would be nice to do, especially with 2 hours and only 15 people.

I can't remember there not being some problem or another with a GTR 1 or 2 addon track, I can't believe they are worth the effort online when there are 30something original tracks.

May I suggest Donington GP........

I have 'the other' Silverstone. The one that shows in the lobby as "Northamptonshire". I think it was done by -=4ph3x=-. Originally from rFactor I believe. Could be the contentious one, although I'm not sure.

Anyway, would this one be slightly better than the one posted on the downloads section? I've run on it a fair few times without any issues, and certainly not sinking into the tarmac! It's a good circuit to race V8 supercars on

Server is now running this with GTR2 1.1 patch installed.

I've only run this online with the UKGTR skin pack and so far not experienced any issues.

The one in the downloads section is the rFactor conversion... I'll bet those having problems have not installed it to the correct place. Has anyone been silly enugh to unpack the Zip without its internal folder structure, so that all files come out in a single directory instead of "top" directory plus three individual layouts inside it?

[Dave 'Gizmo' Gymer]

First post updated to reflect the server's 1.1 patch status.

You're quite right. I am a dolt for not checking the version posted in the downloads section - it's the same as mine, albeit with a different filename for the .zip.

I've just tried various combinations of putting wrong things in wrong places but I can't reproduce the bouncing garage problem. I can make GTR2 crash but that's not exactly hard.

[Dave 'Gizmo' Gymer]

Didn't put the folders in the right place first of all but no problems now! Put an hour or so of practice in last night in the C5R. Its much nicer to drive, alot more forgiving for me. Managed a 1.49.889 which seemed like a good time tbh???

I've just done a 1:47.375 in the Lambo with the default setup on my first flying lap whilst testing to see if I could reproduce the Beholder/Merlin problem(s).

Can you both start a command prompt, and do the following:

Code:

cd /d "c:\Program Files\GTR2"
dir /s GameData\Locations >locations.txt

adjusting the directory to reflect where you've got GTR2 installed. Then open locations.txt (created in your GTR2 directory) and either post it here or PM it to me... I'm 95% sure you've installed it wrong.
