or can somebody host server which uses only fps view?
This is doable and has already been done in the past.

Well -aGy- I must say you sound like me when I joined  :D

I did the M3 championship in first person before I even realised people actually use 3rd Person! I was shocked and disgusted hahaha!

There is no doubt in my mind 3rd person is a LOT easier, because I use it a lot now. After dabbling with 3 screens I decided I wanted the spacial awareness and even level racing so I learnt 3rd P.   I just flail myself with a 'cat o nine tails' each evening to compensate.

But when I use 1st person now I think it is so much better but its not competitive in races. When there are 20 racers like you then that will be great.

I will look at the server settings again, unfortunately I think at the moment if you have 1st person then you also have to have other assists off too. I can't remember at the moment.  Keep looking for GPBOC2 server in an hour or so.

Ive never used 3rd person in a competetive race. I used to usr it but found it to arcade like.

Is this why you lot are so much quicker :P

Ali is quicker in 3rd person, 1st person and probably in 2nd and 4th person views too.

Smart move: technically that's called hedging your risk. It's current practice in economy, industry, stock exchange etc.

Unfortunately (for you) it won't work this time ;)

Ive always wondered what that term meant  :)

Server is up with "forced cockpit mode" enabled at Edmonton

-aGy- As this won't be noticeable on the best laps website you might like to start a new topic where people can post their best times?

I don't think Ali can do anything about it because if I'm not mistaken, the track code in the [trackname].cfg file is responsible for defining the track from which lap times are coming from?
The only thing I can think of, is if there is a piece of script code that can maybe written in the [trackname].cfg file that will define a track to be used with 1st player view mode only?

We need Piboso to look at this and advise if it's possible or not.  :)

GpBOC servers only have official Bike Mod bikes you must not have the ones in the bikeMod?
