Is there a rotation system for tracks?  It strikes me there are some tracks I've never seen on DMR, and others I've seen a lot.  I have a particular issue with SS cars at SO (can't pass! can't get up to speed! can't use downforce! slightest mistake wrecks suspension!), but that's just me I guess - nonetheless, it seems to be the same stuff - we did the FOX at SO5 this time round also.

I've rephrased this about 5 times, but I can't tell you how disappointed I was with the BF1 at SO5, the Fox was too much for it, this is like caging a cheetah...

Ah well.  Roll on the UF1.

(edit: this sounds like a whinge, it really isn't intended to be, I just want to give some feedback - I love DMR's weekly races and I want them to be fun, I appreciate all the hard work involved but I feel sometimes the combo choice doesn't work).

The Ã,£100 deal is this weekend only from one retailer.  Usual price is more like Ã,£120-Ã,£150.  Nonetheless, this is like the v2 G15 - more expensive with fewer features.  Go Logitech!

Ah, that's reassuring.  Wondered why I lost connection.  I just have to placate the wife then I'll be back.

Thanks Mark - I guess all this is old hat if you've seen rfactor before, but this is my first look at it.  Thanks again to Oliver for putting up the files, and sorry for my impatience overall.  Hope to see you on track Friday...

d'oh!  you just select them and start the session.  Sometimes asking a question inspires you to find the answer...

Most grateful.  Downloading as I type.  

One more thing, and I guess this is off topic slightly, but how do I unlock all the cars?  It looks like Rfactor (and therefore HistoriX) has some sort of single player "win races for money to buy cars with" thing going on, but I want to drive the Porsche 906 now now now!  Is there a simple fiddle that I'm missing?

Sub 52 sec in RAC @ SO1 Classic by 9.30 BST Thursday :boxing:

Hmm.  Not sure about this one.  Maybe next challenge is get to grips with HistoriX...

I beat 1:35 on XFG / BL1.  Only just (1:34:86) but seeing as I've been trying since December 08, and it's taken me 3500 laps, I had to shout about it somewhere.  Maybe one day I'll learn to be really quick...

It's not the connection (although 7 Mbit isn't great for an ADSL2+ connection, serves me right for living 5km from the telephone exchange , it's the limits the likes of megaupload put on you.

If you are able to RAR them all and put them somewhere I can get at I'd be most grateful, having done a few offline runs I'm interested in racing in this mod for sure...

Young impatient whippersnappers.....

Heh.  I spent 3 nights tryiing to download them all, and then posted that and gave up.  Shame, because the cars are nice and what tracks I have seem good, but I only have a little leisure time and I'd rather spend it racing.

Which list of tracks is definitive for the DMR server, the OP in this thread or the ones at http://files.deadmen.co.uk/nKP/rFactor%20tracks/ ?  If the former then I give up, I don't have the time to deal with the likes of MediaRapidShareFirePayUsForDownloadsOrWaitForever.com...

Can't think why. :g: Have you been telling them rude jokes? :roflmao:
Seriously though, PM me and we can talk on vent if it helps.

Fixed it.  I'll get the tracks today and pop in when I see people in the Vent channel.

However, I would refer you to THIS post.

In those stakes I have less to lose than most.  Can't get HistoriX running ATM though, downloaded it twice and got corrupt files both times.  Will continue to faff.

Now then.  Got a copy of GTL, got Rfactor, got the HistoriX mod - do I just need to complete the set with all the tracks in the original post and I'll be away?  Or are there other fiddlings to be done?

Glad I'm finally improving.  Had a great time fending you and Oldie off as you tried to get past in a tag team stylee.  Couldn't stop smiling when Oldie said "you are Doorman and I claim my 5 pounds"... then I pitted, worried slightly when only front left was changed even though front right was wearing thin, decided not to worry too much and had a great second half battling with Dee Slider, swapping places back and forth each lap.  Great racing.
