I'd prefer the bike to have more realistic stability when the rider is not on it, that would solve the issue with no workaround.

MaX.

I agree that will solve the problem. Those rare cases in real life when the bike keeps on riding with no rider on it would not be a problem i guess. Currently the bike keeps going on and on too often and without any solution this could really ruin a race if it happens then. Falling off is one thing, but getting a 1 minute penalty for doing so is a bit unlucky at those moments.

Since i think most people are using a gamepad, especially xbox 360 controller, it would be nice to see the xbox one controller being supported in the near future. For now there is no official pc version of the new controller but in time, it would be nice to use the rumble/feedback on the triggers in  gp bikes to give some extra information on stability or traction of the bike.

Hi iVolution.

I thought there was a plugin to allow the use of the xbox controller? Yes there is, try this link: http://forum.piboso.com/index.php?topic=95.0

Hope it helps

Maybe i should have highlighted it... i was talking about the xbox one controller with the feedback triggers, the new one. The xbox 360 controller is what i am already using now.

Screenshot & Paints section....

Please note that all paints will be obsolete with the release of 1.0

Out of pure curiosity i just have to ask.. what are you going to change so that old paints can't be used again? Can we just recompile old paint schemes or do we need new templates because the bike models change?

@Hawk : it is a different problem.
I also had a few times completely invisible bikes, with just the name of the rider on top of it

The problem you are mentioning is the textures are not loading correctly (also had it frequently)

Do you have an easy trick or solution to solving this problem? If not, is it me that has to rejoin the server or is it the other guy that is causing the problem?

I guess this i possible since it think jamoz did the same for me and some others. Not 100% sure though.

I sometimes encounter invisible bikes on the track. Since i have the rider names showing above the bikes i see where they are riding, and collisions can still occur, but for some reason they are not rendered. For a fact i know that i am not the only one that is not seeing them, and i am pretty sure that going to the pits is not solving it. As this is not occuring very often it is not that a big of a problem but maybe worth investigating if its not just me.

i see them too, it's like the rider ( or the bi ke ) flyes (?) away

Yeah me too. In beta4 i still regularly see the rider fly trough the air for a split second when they crash, sometimes on  the other side of the track as well.

Yesterday at 23:06 (GMT+1) the server had a core.exe crash.

Does that happen frequently? I estimate that we were playing on that server the preceding 2 races and the dissappearing riders might have lead to a server crash eventually. This was a first time for me so hope it was just a one time experience.

Assen got my vote, am always happy to do some laps on home soil

Had some issues today on the cold turkey server. Occasionally everybody/some people disappeared for a few seconds and had the feeling that not all 16 players could be visible at the same time. As far as I know I was not the only one with this problem. Is this more common or just an incident?

I think that a country vs. country race might be a bit unbalanced since some countries are better represented than others. As for a world series I expect that one for every class will be organized this year similar to that in 2013.

This all depends of course on how stable GPbikes and the servers will be in Beta4. The bugs and game crashes are the ones limiting the amount of competition, as for the players I guess there are enough willing to participate in a championship with regards to last year.
