UKGTL Season 8 GT Classics Cup - Round 1 - Lakeside, AUSTRALIA - Jun 18th

Any possibility of using Mr. Lazlow's brainwave and getting the server kicked off a little earlier, ie. set it for a couple of hours practice so everyone's not all joining at once upon reset?

[Wiltshire Tony]

Love to oblige mate but it's too short notice and folk will be trying to get in using the wrong password.

Promise it will be sorted for all future events though.

[psuedo]

I cant get back onto the server at the mo.....its hanging when loading spanner.....tend to remember similar happening before....but can anyone remember the solution?

[Ade]

psuedo have you installed the Toyota Corolla mod

[psuedo]

no 

[dynosaur]

Well I had a nice race, hope I didn´t cause any of you harm while my pc froze, screen went black and I had to restart. Better stick to offline racing... 

[Steve Holmes]

Me too, display driver froze partway down the pit straight.  Dunno why I bother.

Glad I didn't waste a second doing any practice for this.

[Tibernius]

Inernet went. Well, either that or the phone line 'cause everything went, including TeamSpeak.

And I had a chance of a decent finish for once as well.

[dynosaur]

Very nice start of the season, hehe! 

[TinMan]

Having a good time until I lost the connection.
Apologies to Spanner for ever such a slight tap - I waited for you and we both fell to the back of the field. Great fun fighting my way back. Legzy was just in front of me and I had my car set up to be better as it got further into the race, so I feel I could have got him (that's what I tell myself, anyway)

Cheers

TC

[Legzy]

DUE TO THE RACE ENDING AT ABOUT HALF WAY, WE'VE RESTARTED THE SERVER.

yoU'VE GOT 8 MINS TO JOIN FOR A SHORTENED 2ND RACE.

I also had a picture freeze on lap 13, just as things were beginning to get interesting.

Got caught up in the start shambles someone appeared to be stationary and I hit the car in front and had a number of rear hits on me, eventually got away last.  A couple of drivers let me through - thanks and I started to work my way slowly back up the field past a Falcon when it ran wide then a few seconds later it all froze up on me - hope it didn't cause too many problems, it took a time to get out of it.

I had a system freezing issue in practice. (Where the sound carries on but the screen doesn't update.) So I came back only for Matt Rowe to cause my game to not work by his car choice. Game just kept trying to load the car. (Had the same issue last week when someone chose the wrong car.) So I downloaded and reinstalled the skins and Corolla on the off chance. Seemed to work.

Qualifying was pathetic as I never got a clean lap and gave up.

Few laps into the race everyone disappeared. I just kept motoring and eventually you all came back. Race was just starting to get interesting when everyone disappeared and this time it stayed that way and I lost connection.

So in other words an utter bloody farce and complete waste of time.

What a mess.
Had a good race going, classic battle with Phil untill I overcooked it in the 2nd to last, ot going again
and people started dropping, then "next track"

2nd race... err what gives?

Started 3rd onthe grid, coolest, set off quite well behind Ade who's foot appeared to fall of the pedals
as he slowed, (or my KERS cut in) lifted but tapped him, somehow ended up falling off in my attempts to
avoid. Got going again at the back, err thanks for that. Caught Tony , then onto the straight, Tony goes left
I go right, folowing Legzy who for some bizzare reason almost come to a stop!!!!!!!!! Brakes parachutes
anchow...nope, I smack him up the bum. get going, catch and pass Tony after his weaving from side to
side, Legzy comes steaming up behind pushes my rear quarter round and spins me off... ok ok I get the
message I'm outta here  

[phspok]

Umm. How did my Falcon cause your game to not work??/
