2 servers will run if Matty can do admin for Server 2 and I will be drawing which servers riders are on later today.
I will PM riders with which server they are on and the password for it
Do NOT give out your password to others. Thank you
Servers will be restarted at 19.45 so they are fresh and hope to reduce core issues
is it too far down the line for me to try and join? as a wild card (lol) or something..?
i've forgotten how these champ's work, lol - better go read some more threads.
Hi Cape
No problem m8
Until GPB is fully working it is only fair to let folks race when they can in my view. I will PM you server password when I figure which one is lower in riders
BUT..............I may try and just use one server as not all can make it and is worth to see

Tomorrow we will release a new update for the mod. Don't worry, nothing to drastic, just some improvements in the engine, shifting and tyre behaviours.
I'd be good to use it for this Sunday race, I think all of us will prefer it.
We want to thank CAWS team for the help on this update and in future updates of the mod, That's how this community should work :)
Just read in bike thread, great news thanks Loopa and all involved

I thought It has been marked as test race or so.... mwell, ok
DD - U putting up a training server with the new bikes big boy? :-*
Edit: PeterV has one up for us in the mean time
A server is up
DD
sorry dd there is a mistake with the honda 99, here is the new link
https://www.dropbox.com/s/d8hel1a0mp6g4u4/bikes.rar?dl=0
sorry for the bug
NP Loopa thanks for the hard work
The bike is great..........BUT you have removed the orbit cam from being selected by keyboard in replay. Yhis is needed for streaming if I do it live and commentate. I will try to race this week so not so bad but still need to have it so I do not need to select orbit cam using the overlay as it looks cack in a video.
Any chance you can sort it out for next update would be great
DD
The bike update killed my starts :( :P
Impossible to rev it all the way and get a good start now. You guys are lucky.

Hey DD, weird issue there, I'll take a look for the next update. Anyway you can take the old camera's file and use it as you won't get any missmatch

what do you mean? I do not change any of the clutch setting or engine satting to make any different on it, just the autoclutch feature

When I rev it before the start it immediately dies. But you made a seperate patch for the 99 Honda and that's the bike I'm using so I have to try with that patch ;)

Yep that was the problem
DO you all want to try ONE server need to know asap
DD
As long as it doesn't give cores sure :P
Many have asked about it so we can give it a try
Password for server needed today so use the one you have with a "1" if you used a "2" before
DD
We can try 8)
Let's try! Let's see how many shows up :)
As the track is NDS I'm sure it won't give more cores than usual, and is much better for the show hahaha
DD have you tried putting the old camera file?
If anyone is around, is there a chance you could try to connect to the server. We just need to make sure that is stable.
Thanks :)
I dont understand, I have dowloaded the patch 2 days ago. Do I have to repatch it with the link LOOPA gave ??
the they after I uploaded the patch I have to correct it because there was a mistake, so if you don't know when you download it just download it again now and it should be fine
Is the server down?
Sorry you couldn't race Sydney. There is an issue when you go to track the bike appears to drop, which somtimes causes a jumpstart.
There is nothing you can do unfortunetly and there is only so many times we can restart. :-[
Again, sorry.
No problem mate, thanks for the restarts you did anyway. I know it's GPB, but it's a bit deflating.
Anyway, I enjoyed watching the 2 aliens out front have a fantastic battle from the get go, proper close stuff.
It's time to drown my sorrows in a bottle of red :P

Sorry to all for my premature exit. Race had finished on my screen so I went back to pits but it was only lap 19!
Anyway disastrous race for me, roll on the next disastrous race ;D
Sorry to Syd and any that had a problem, I was live streaming and sitting on the grid and got sent to pits, thought race had stopped and then saw it was still going wtf lol so wanted to ride this one oh well. Server kept results on new pc and replays so will post in the mornin
Congrats to podiums and BIG thanks to the show of sportsmanship from loopa and davide, you show real class guys, thanks to all for being there and being such good guys.
DD
EDIT Oh and my internet just cut out before this message so thank heavens not during race...............Virgin you suck for 48 quid a month lol
Sorry for quitting early, I was pissed because my race (or I) sucked way too hard.
Sorry to hear that B
Replay was 954MB!!! and only half the race!!! So not worth uploading as would crash on loading too

Working on full standings now. Not happy about GPB and the jump start as sucks donkey balls. Sorry Syd
DD
For some reason my system only recorded the last 8mins of the race.... Very strange. :o
Hawk
I'm very frustrated and disapointed with this race. Let me tell you my story :D
The first 2 races were initiations for me. Whatever the result, I would be happy because it was my first races. For this one, I wanted to be more competitive. And regarding my chronos during the practice sessions, I wasn't that far from the aliens.
Thanks to Kerazo and the 'Kerazo Breaking technique' I was able to perform a solid 2.09.00 with race setup and an average 2.10~2.11 . With quali setup, I was able to perform a 2.07.xx
Not to bad compared with te 2.03~2.05 from the aliens ahead. 2 seconds on such a long track, I was proud.
Then comes the race. I don't know why, I struggled to make a clean lap during either practice and quali. I made only one valid time during quali, with a 2.08.xx chrono that put me 7 on the grid.
I know I am a beast with the starts. A true plane, a rocket !!
This... This is when you forgot that you don't hear your engine on the grid -_- So, as in A1 and Monza, it was a pure "guess your RPM and clutch position" start. Annnnnnd, I fucked it up.
Sorry For the guys behind me. I felt doing nice figures. And thus, the race has just started and I am penultimate.
On the first lap, I gain at least 3 positions and quickly, I can see Hawky in front of me, and I am melting on him.
Sorry Hawk ! I may have ruin both our race. I was surprised by our speed offset. I think we had something like a 2 or 3 seconds difference by lap. I was sure I could quickly pass you but wanted to observe first. I wanted to stay behind you waiting for a straight line to pass you. I was surprised by you trajectory in the penultimate S. I took the brakes, lost the front, hit you :/
We may have lost 4 or 5 positions in this. I've waited for you, it was the minimum I could do.
Then, I started to ride like if hell was chasing me. I was in really good pace and grabed some positions. Then I had a accident with Sim UK. Sorry If I scarred you bro :D
It was like we had 100 km/h difference at the first braking. I came so fast on him I could'nt compute :o There was only room on the left, between him and the grass. Unfortunatly I took him in my fall :/
For the rest of the race, I only made one mistake. Only one !! I'm pretty proud. Ho yes, I felt another time, but as usual with GPB, you discover brand new way of loosing the front for no reason. I wouldn't consider this, my fault...
I finished 10 sec behind Warlock, like in Monza. And like in monza, I'm pretty sure that I could have taken him if the race would have benn 3 or 4 more laps long.
Next time Warlock... next time >:(
....syncing....
...or not. ::)
Seems to be my curse recently. Has happened a few times with large tracks but this time I'm presuming it was the busy room that it didn't like.
Did actually let me in at first but then I was bumped(realised I was out on track on my own with the marshalls all waving flags) and couldn't get back in. >:(
Dunno what's going on - have been in plenty of busy rooms in the past.
(though not since the last beta)
Sorry all if my repeated attempts were glitching your practice. :-[
Well blame GPB G it is not you m8
Hope to see you at Laguna

Real shame Grooveski that is very disappointing. I know sometimes I get stuck on 'syncing' but a game restart usually fixes this. I expect you tried everything. Out of interest do you play on a wireless connection?
Tchemi - nice post race report mate. I will spare everyone mine. :-[ :-X
So now all us non-aliens need to know the 'Kerazo braking method' as well to have a chance. How much will that info cost? :D

I didn't make it as far as rebooting but yeah - restarted the game, turned down some graphics settings, checked the network rate was set to high...
...a reboot would have been next but by then practice was done and I didn't want to keep trying right through qualifying.
Yeah to the wireless connection too.

Sorry tchemi.... I was just coasting around just trying to do a whole race without the front end breaking away or the rear end locking up and spitting me off going into corners..... Appreciate the apology and you waiting after the incident, but there was no need to wait mate but appreciated nonetheless. Thanks mate. ;) 8)
Hoping for another update to these bikes very soon(hint, hint. Lol). ;D
Yeah... I would be very interested in hearing about this 'Kerazo' braking technique being talked about too. Lol
Hawk.
The 'Kerazo' braking technique ?! Hahaha.
All I can say is that my personal best was 2.10.80
I was practicing and made some 2.12.xx laps. Kerazo was watching me with the live replay, a feature I didn't knew and I was looking for. He then took the track and I watched him in live replay.
I noticed how was his braking. I took the track, made one warming lap, tried to apply his method and PAOW !! 2.09.20 I saved 1.6 seconds On the first try !!
I cannot do it at every turn and I still fall a lot. It is not fluent nor elegant, but fam, it is efficient !!
I give you a hint, Vin does the same ;)

Try a cable mate if possible I have a theory.
Nice report Tchemi.
Yeah starts with a full grid can be really annoying with sounds.
A single more crash from my side would put you ahead of me, so i was dosing the gap, trying not to crash . Worked this time, we'll see next race lol ;D
i'd like to join this champs as a late entry wildcard, is that possible?
