Owners Club / GPBikes Owners Club | Aims
May 16, 2015, 06:26:06 PM
The GPBikes Owners Club - Beta Chapter

has been borne from the following racing Topics:
http://forum.piboso.com/index.php?topic=2156.0 - Request for more races
http://forum.piboso.com/index.php?topic=2160.0 - Preferred categories Poll
http://forum.piboso.com/index.php?topic=2158.0 - Interest in more Racing events
http://forum.piboso.com/index.php?topic=2164.0 - Preferred days for more racing events.

     It seems a long time coming and I apologise for this, as I have been attending to some sad family business these last few weeks, but now I am ready to try and give more attention and fun for my friends here (that's all of you  - even the one who 'disliked' my teaser video  >:( lol).

So what is intended?

     Primarily, its just some more fun racing events for people to take part in - with the view of them being fun, mixed with a bit of a club atmosphere for a bit of fun bonding (not to be confused with 'Bondage').

How will we achieve this? - information on the decisions below will be in a separate topic with reasons and FAQs provided.
     

  • Stakeholders meeting has just successfully finished and The Club has a home for now at - Mallory Park
  • The Club Secretary has acquired some old Leather jackets with Badass Logos on
  • There wont be any complicated rules - this is a WorldWide club - simplicity is the key
  • Race events will run under rules already established in other championships, maybe without the 'no chat' rule - giving a nice mix of fun and seriousness.
  • Anyone can 'join' - you join by taking part in a club event (see its not complicated).
  • Races here will be planned NOT TO CONFLICT with any championships that intend to be run, or are currently running.  With the recent implementation in championships of a finer 'cut' to see who makes the grid, we may run the same races for the slower guys at the same or different times. We will see how this progresses.
  • The success of The Club depends entirely on you, please take part.

What Race Events are planned?

  • CUP RACING - consisting of Single Bike Model / Single Manufacture / 2/4 Stroke Racing etc
  • CATEGORY RACING - normal One Bike Category Races EG: STOCK1000
  • SPECIAL EVENT RACING - Any other races we want
Is there a Leaderboard?
Yes, points will be given for Racing to go on the 'Clubhouse Heroes Roll Call' plaque.

Is there any crazy club initiation process?
     hahaaha No but I'm not stopping you if you want to stick your head up a cows a*se. :o

Anything else of note?

    No, just keep watching the Owners Club Childboard for more details. Suggestions considered.

Mods / Post Beta 7 transition
May 16, 2015, 07:42:32 AM
We are approaching my first Beta upgrade.

In my garage I arrange wood screws in coffee jars in diameter order subdivided by shank lengths. I plan ahead and I plan meticulously.

Would it be useful to list what might need looking at post release as far as mods go? The old hands have done it before but the new 'talent' haven't.

For example,
1. Bikes will need upgrading to work with B7?
2. tracks?
3. Paints?
4. Personal garage art?
5. Plugins
6. Tools - Track Ed, Painted, and associated tools and exporters etc

Might just be worth having a list here for Modders and Mod users reference? Fire the thoughts in and I will amend/update the list.

Conversely you might think I am wasting breath, if so tell me and I've got a messy sock drawer to organise.  :D

Off Topic / DOG RIDES BIKE!
April 29, 2015, 08:26:41 AM


I'm sorry this is so OFF TOPIC other than its got the word 'bike' in it.  But thought you might smile at what my dog would look like riding, well, pillioning.

Every forum needs a cute animal post? right?

Sit on your real bike and lay it on the clocks.......



Or if using a Monitor minimise it, attach a keyboard and catch up on some business emails while on the straight at Spa.......



Thoughts?  :P

Hi everyone,

we've been setting up and testing a server for Weekly/Daily races and need it "Load tested"

Could you please take <2 minutes to  try and get on this server at some convenient point please. It is currently called |Weekly race Server| and is in OPEN mode.

If you can get on please leave your PING in the in-game chatbox (seen to right of chatbox).

If you cannot get on (Data Mismatch) please tell us in this thread.

Really appreciated and hopefully will help get these races off the ground.

Thanks to you all.

Setups / Suspension Setup Guide
March 31, 2015, 02:20:45 PM
Thought people might find this interesting if anyone doesn't know their rebound from their preload

https://www.dropbox.com/s/5g39ycwwnon8w5l/Suspension%20Guide.pdf?dl=0

Maybe there is scope here to get all the set-up settings explained - and cross-referenced to the in-game options.

For example - Engine braking 3 means none/little and 0 means full Eh?  ???
Pre-load doubt over correct effect.

Be nice if people in the know can chip in too. Nirvana might be a list of settings versus what effects it should have?
