NZrFL:42 BTCC - Round 2

Post by Bull » Sat Jul 01, 2017 12:09 pm

We head to one of the most popular tracks in the UK this week for Round 2, Donington Park. This track has always provided great racing, and will be sure to carry on from the action that Round 1 provided us.

Track: Donington Park National

Schedule:
8:00pm - Official Practise
8:40pm - Qualifying
8:55pm - Drivers Briefing
9:00pm - Racing Commences

Format:
Race 1: 15 minute sprint Race, qualifying used for grids.
Race 2: 15 minute sprint Race, random marble draw for grid reversal from Race 1 Result
Race 3: 15 minute sprint Race, random marble draw for grid reversal from Race 2 Result

A note from Round 1:
A few people tested and used the soft tyres in the racing in Round 1 - some found they wore similarly to the medium tyre whilst providing a more consistent lap time - be sure to test the soft tyre out as it could be a better alternative to running the medium!

Got everything setup at the new house (sort of), installed tracks and cars, tried to join server to test and get "package not available"

Edit: seems to be a problem with Oulton Park - looking for version 1.24 not 1.25?

Hmm... will try again tomorrow

Oulton Park updated end of last week. Riven has updated the server but maybe it hasnt gone through? Might pay to send him a PM? We had a similar problem with NOLA updating mid league in the Clios

I have to delete and re-create the rfmod for the series. This rF2 server clusterf**k is such a PITA!

In future during a league there will be no content updates, as it messes with too much shit.

I fully expect people will have rfmod problems now.

How do we go about stopping steam workshop from updating content? Unsubscribing to content uninstalls it.

Set rF2 to manual update?

If their serverside support wasnt so shit it'd be ok.

Noob question time,
Does this mean I have to do something to get on the server? or wait?

What about letting someone else set up the server so its not all on you?

Someone can if they work here, or rent their own server

Results from Round 2 uploaded.
Sorry for delay, out of my control waiting for other people to sort things out.

Looks like a big battle building for 3rd spot on the championship podium :D _b
