Thanks GT, I'm not sure if I will be able to do all this in time to race tho...but I'll try.
Cheers

Hmm, I'm not so sure that's the fix Paulo needs. I'm sure he's raced GTL since that fix happened. But I do recall Syd Drake and I think Hotkeys having a similar problem after Altbeirthing re-booted their server or somesuch. I think that was early September?
I'll have a look.

EDIT: Found this

Syd/Hotkeys, so sorry that you guys missed the race. I believe this problem is only affecting some people and it's due to Altbeirbude changing their server or something. Some folk don't have to do anything and they join, others have to use a fix. I'll have a look at GTLDK for a fix, please watch this space.

EDIT: Make a backup of your existing files then try this

The Altbierbuden-Lobby has switched to a new server.
So you have to change your LOCAL_IP_LOBBY.txt in your main GTL folder.
remove the line

gtl-lobby.bierbuden.de 

replace with

91.121.7.48 

restart the game, you should then arrive at the correct lobby

[Hotkeys]

Yep... I had the same problem. The funny thing is, that I never changed anything !

the names of the tracks, which are shown, are not the names of the tracks which are running on the servers.
you have not these tracks, so the game replace their names with some you have installed on your game.

you have to find out which tracks are running and install these.

But that does not explain, why we were not able to join the game monday night, since we both had the right track installed !

The mystery remains unsolved

Thanks Tony,
and you are right, I did a Mini race with you 2 weeks ago without doing anything.

[Hotkeys]

PC freezed on me after just 4 or 5 laps, I have no idea why 

T´was as nice race for as long as it lasted; I started from the rear and got up to 9th pl. or so.

Nice track, awfulll car ... how on earth could you guys go as low as 1.55.xx ?

Like I said, really nice match up of car/track, just a shame I hardly had anyone to race with the whole race.

Was catching TJ(?) for the last quarter of race by over 1.5 secs per lap, but once I caught him I bumped him when I think he was being held up in the hair pin by PR lapping us & I realised I couldn't just take the corner as i had every other lap. Sorry about that

Think we'd have had a great last couple of laps, but as I was following TJ(?) closely through the T2 chicane you just stopped dead & I walloped you from behind. What happened, did you catch a tyre? They caught me out loads in practice

Congrats to podiums & see y'all next time.

[Mike Miller]

It looks like Paulo fixed it very well.

[goldtop]

Not a pleasant race. Impatient and aggressive driving with plenty of contact and corner cutting from one particular driver . Report submitted.

[Wiltshire Tony]

I wonder If Paulo's seen this yet

I had a great race battling with you GT . And I thought that Tony was pretty clear about corner cutting being OK for this race. There are a lot of area's where you would get a sng if you did it too much so the track would be the marshal for this one.. Like Jarama79 it has those big sections of track on either side that are too easy to run on and it would be a nightmare to judge tracks like that... As far as aggressive driving... that's a whole other matter  .

This was definitely not your race...a little sad to give others the blame for it  

Practice:
I hate this car  

Qual:
WoW - Starts in second place...it was a surprise  

Race:
Terrible start, my gearbox is completely wrong...all pass   My setup is rather perfect in the turns where I can win placements back...this really gives a fun & close race.  
Unfortunately it was lost again on the straights, where people drove past without any problem & I could do nothing.
New record, 4xDane on server, but none on podium  
...& something new, no gold for Team GTLDK, but an impressive second place for Sqter, big Grats.
Grats to Paulo - fantastic race & to Ade 

[phspok]

Fun race. Lost a couple of places getting out of Tony's way with his kamikaze blast up the inside
at the 1st corner   Made a pass into the chicane after the hairpin and got tapped into a spin
and over the bank we went, go to the back Mr Rowe, caught the field back up and lost it myself
avoiding ramming, then spent the last half of the race with a most excellent dual with
Di Martini, his Alpina was much quicker in the 1st and last corners, my schnizer had the legs
down the straight, two abreast round the last corner several times without contact, great stuff  
Watched PR after he lapped me, and his pace was unreal, wayyyy more traction out of corners
and at least as fast in. ALien speed Paulo. 

[goldtop]

No problems at all with your driving at all Navin; fair and patient unlike Pelle who has now chosen to identify himself, but try to put the blame on me for this. The Scnitzer was awful in the corners, while the Alpinas were all over me. The difference is Pelle resorted to cutting and forcing his way through while Navin found his way through. The replay says it all.

I saw it, downloaded it and tested it for 5 laps after last night's race. Very nice mod.
I must say that the Nissan KGC110 GT-X , Ford Capri Perana V8, Ford Cortina MKI Perana, Fiat 850 Coupé, Ferrari 365 GTB, Opel Commodore GS and Ford Escort RS1600 are quite good aswell.  

A good race last night, didn't have time to practice, so I went for this one with a stiff setup (as usual  ), a good balance in rear suspension allowed me to exit corners quite well. Finished race with front left tire at 49 wear.   And I messed with the fuel, I had fuel in tank for another race when I finished...
I love this track since GPL old days. Well, in fact I love all GPL track layouts and now there are plenty of them, Reims anyone?  

Congrats to all finishers.

Cheers

P.S. I have done the change to LOBBY.txt with the IP number on the other two GTL installations without success, I still see several servers all with Mondello and Hockenheim tracks. I don't wanna hear about Mondello and Hocks for a few years now please.
