NZrFL:41 Clio Sprint Cup - ROUND 4 - FINAL ROUND

Round 4 - The Finale - is upon us!

The final round of the short but sweet Clio Sprint Cup is upon us, and we head to the track of NOLA Park to decide the title. DX11 has proven to be a great step forward graphically, and with NOLA being one of the tracks updated and optimised for the new engine, it should provide some great viewing to go with the great racing this series has already delivered.

Track: NOLA Motorsport Park

Schedule:
8:00pm: Official Practise
8:55pm: Drivers Briefing
9:00pm: Racing Commences

Format:
The final round of the series will stick to more or less the same formula used so far. Race 1 will be a reverse grid of current point standings, with Race 2 being reverse grid of the finishing order. However, Race 3 will instead be a reverse grid of the current standings, including races 1 and 2, to decide the champion of the Sprint Cup.

Races 1 & 2 will again be 15 minutes, and Race 3 20 minutes.

I believe we are going to leave it Dry for the final round Arctic. A few hung around last week and commented on how great the racing will be on this circuit in the dry.

Also, with the DX11 beta just out, we haven't fully tested the rain effects etc on the new engine, and would hate for someone to get a graphical error or game crash in the final round due to this.

We will test the Wet weather with the new engine between seasons to ensure it's 100% ready to go for a league night in the next series :)

Has anyone managed to join the server today?

I decided to try out the DX11 beta and it doesn't work properly as it thinks I've only got 512MB ram instead of 6gig. Anyway I ended up having to do a complete reinstall and then unsubscribed to all tracks and the car followed by a resubscribe. And now it's no longer possible for me to join the server. I can race the clio at NOLA offline though so I'm wondering if I've ended up with a different version of the track somehow. The error message about missing content isn't that helpful.

Thats a shame. You can switch between DX11 builds and DX9 builds under the Betas Tab.

I will test the server shortly. Pre-league people had issues if they hadn't subscribed to all the tracks, and mod. Make sure you've subscribed to all 4 tracks. A couple also unsubscribed and re-subscribed to NOLA which fixed it. If you still have issues let me know, and I can jump on teamviewer to help you out.

Have you also tried verifying game files?

I have managed to join the server fine.

BTW there is a glitch where in the video settings it only lists a max of 1024mb for your graphics card. S397 have said to ignore that and they will fix it in one of the upcoming updates

Tried unsubscribing and resubscribing to the cars and tracks. It seemed like I successfully unsubscribed because it took ages to download stuff again.

Looking in my Installed directory I have
locations/NolaMP_2016/1.1
locations/ISI_TobanRP_2016/1.0
locations/ISI_MillsMetro_2011/2.00
locations/ISI_LimeRockPark_2012/2.0
vehicles/ISI_Renault_ClioCup_2010/1.63

Everything is verified okay. I even tried deleting packages/KSR_NZRFL41.rfmod to force it to be downloaded again.

Still no luck, not sure what else to try.

After I try to join the server and put in the password I get this:
"Package Not Available"

If I put in the incorrect password it fails before this so the password is definitely right.

I'm still not able to join the sever, getting Package not Available..

Did you get it sorted Arctic?

The versions of Toban and Mills linked in the main post don't exist anymore, hence I don't have them. Might be the problem.

Not working for me yet. I have those tracks 2 in my installed folder but they don't show up in the packages list in rfactor2.

Ive asked Riven to update the rFmod to reflect the new versions. If not done in time I am currently uploading them in worst case scenario
