Brilliant races again last night :biggrin:. Chasing Oldie around the South City circuit but just not being able to get past, real edge of seat stuff. Damn near pulled the wheel of the desk a few times. Don't know how I didn't tail-end you.

Thanks to JAS for so kindly pulling over just before the finish line so I could go first! :dribble: :clap: :whistle:

The peripheral vision is a bit limited so on some corners there was a bit of pushing and shoving, but it was all done in the best possible taste! :narnar:

Well we had a great race or two on the new public dMw GTL server last night. Del and myself against the hoardes and there were quite a few as well. I think we had 15 on in one race. Most were mature and provided some great duelling. There were a couple of idiots but in the face of overwhelming fair play they disapeared. Thanks Ron for the ability to administer the server and for my new tag, I will have to create a new profile so that I can use it. Del and I were very closely matched last night in a field of very good drivers but we still found ourselves in the upper half of the field come the start of the race and I believe in both we were in consecutive places on the grid. We will be racing GTL again on Thursday night as we both have commitments for Tue/Wed. Hope to see a few of more dMw or dMr types then.

PS, is it posible for us to change the tracks on the server Ron?

delanvital · July 25, 2006, 12:15:29 PM

We had 21 in one race, and most stayed through that particular race, which was nice and quite a surprice. The top 10 was fast and clean and I had a great duel with a Falcon, I was in the Alfa. I never managed to overtake him, but just a few more laps and I would have had him :whistle:

James, thanks for going over the car setup with me. I thought the options were minor changes, I see now that there is great room for improvement! The "soft" Alfa I ended up with was really fun

Cya thursday.

Of course. There's two ways of going about this. 1: Make a small(ish) selection every so often. This means it's not such a chore to run through them, or 2: Enable every track in God's heaven and let you spend and age getting to Zandvoort! :whistle:
You choose. PM me your preferences and it's as good as done. :biggrin:

Is it twue that I beat Deetz again in a race last night?

Ooo it's twue, it's twue! :devil: :blink:

He did let me lead for most of the race but left his charge too late! :blush2:

Those MRT things are fun, must try them on some other small courses.

I had great fun last night in GTL with Del. Shame it was only two of us for most of the time. Sort of rekindled my interest in GTL and filled me with enthusiasm. I'll try to be back online tonight as well.

JamesB · August 04, 2006, 11:09:24 AM

Well I should be online tonight and my mate Dave will be as well. Look forward to it.

delanvital · August 04, 2006, 01:03:04 PM

i will be there as well at 8 PM

Well I have uninstalled GTL and CMR2005 and every other game I had that used Starforce drivers!

I was having too many problems with CDs/DVDs not burning propery so I uninstalled every game I could find that used Starforce then uninstalled the starforce drivers.

Result?

I can burn DVDs properly again and my computer seems a bit more responsive when "exploring" folders/files (maybe that's in my mind but it does feel more responsive)

Soz for being OT.

Don't get me wrong here, but I am a bit surprised. I am only running GTL and it has only been installed this once, but I am not having any problems. The machine runs as usual and my burner works... But okay, it might be the combination of several SF apps.

That said, if the GTR2 demo does come with SF (I have heard they included it even though it is a download and does not involve CD or DVDs) then I have two copies of the infamous program running...

Do you want to sell your GTL license?

No offence taken

I had 4 differnet copies of starforce drivers loading all installed by different games

(select show hidden devices in Device manager and scroll down to non-plug and pray drivers you'll see your drivers there if they are installed)

I have 2 GTL keys up for grabs 4 what it's worth but I don't know what I need to do to allow someone else to use them - I think they have both been used for online play)

Doorman · August 04, 2006, 01:16:39 PM

It's odd that many other people have said the same thing. Even odder that as many people say the opposite. I've not have any really bad experiences with Starfart except the over the top disc confirmation twaddle. Having said that, i don't burn discs so I wouldn't know. My instinct is that Starfart is not a good thing but what do I know? :cheers:

I have four different drivers installed (Environment, helper, syncro + VFS) which I think totals one installation...:unsure:

Well if you know the login information for online play (username and password) I guess they are ok to be sold - I know mono is looking for a license and UK is way cheaper. If you are up for it send him a PM.
