#Ranked Feature Raids
1 messages ยท Page 2 of 1
A praga championship would be nice
it will be run this year, after season 1. not entirely sure yet about number of series and rounds
right now i'm looking at 2 series, 4 rounds
not on wednesday, not on wednesday,... have leagues there :upsy:
of which one is gtr1 ๐
very likely going to stay on wednesdays ๐ฌ
gtr1 and dtm13-16, old physics championship ๐ช๐ป
Thought so, it's sad but it is what it is ๐
lets be honest, its gonna be gtr3 for sure
and the other one probably something related to content that is released around the time that season starts
popularity wise..... no, mx-5 beats gt3 in a blink
let me check the release dates
really?
Season final on Pau ๐
๐ฎ
mx5 has been ruling since release
hmmm, is that just in ranked? cause i think those numbers might be colored a bit by a potential influx of new players with no rep?
tomorrow with the championship gtr3 race we know better right?
no i'm not looking at ranked stats tbh
that would make me believe its either f4 or wtcr, which both are great picks
yeah, confirmed drivers will be the real metric to compare
hasn't even been discussed internally yet ๐
what car/class
got to sell the content somehow ๐
audi lms ultra cup ๐
and if pau is released near it it should be in the scheduele
hahah imagine, although the car drives like utter trash since the update
but actually depending on how many liveries a car has it could have a gt3 cup championship ๐คท๐ปโโ๏ธ
I can already hear people lose their mind
my personal guess is gonna be gtr3 and the new pcup car
maybe old pcup ๐ค
doesn't matter talking about it. in the end it will come different ๐
ehm...the coming one. the 44?
Champs should go on populated numbers, so there should be a fixed (not called rookies XD) and an open setup one... So I guess F4 or TCR22 fixed could make that. On the other side would have a lot of sense to do it on one of the new porsche pack cars, like the new cup car or the 992.
3rd one... would have sense to be tricky cars like the PCCD... or GTX... or GTR1
but in september the porsche pack is not very new anymore ๐
at this moment... not having those yet... And being August a "holiday" month. September is close
fair enough
Anyway... As this champ is ending on September, next one could be settled in October - November... Another reason to go just 2 series and 4 rounds (8 weeks)
uhu
DP
just before December update... black friday...
quite curious how the game would look at that time feature wise, cause we do know things are happening in the background. just not really what
or whatever comes (if it comes)
*Fehr enough
maybe one of them will be a hillclimb series ๐
We supposehope... We don't know
no we know, jf has stated many times background stuffs was worked upon, alex also stated it a couple of times
if they actually manage to let at least 10 people race on a hillclimb as j-f hinted that would be fun. or at least could be fun^^
@next pivot can we get "Fehr enough" as an emoji, please?
indeed
the two things that was stated was that they were attempting to get hillclimb maps working in multiplayer and reworking the track limits
like a rally stage somehow ๐
only have to work out if colissions between cars a re a thing or ghosting is better ๐
no ofc collisions need to be a thing
road blocks here we go ๐
but who dpi tonight?
not me ๐ซฃ
gtr3 for you?
mhm
I just chucked it in there cause nobody said anything about the time anymore
and i am unable to make 2000
I cannot race in the afternoons XD
Heh, OK, @rancid orchid enough, I'm fine with P22:00 start so see you then! ๐
no clue if the fehrymenn can make 22 tho
I Felthat is too late for him. ๐ฅ
no but is 22 too late fot you or not? ๐
@ moderator
Help, @modest kayak is doxxing me
Can't even spell "Fehr", go on and ask @unborn raven if a brain scan could help you
your name is just spelled incorrectly ๐
@modest kayak brain scan highly advised, tbh. symptoms are alarming.
sh't
I am feeling a bit under the weather. Might not be able to do it
I might be able to hop in Friday tho
if I wanted to, how would I join this?
1401+ enough?
Reputation* my bad.
Anyone interested in a DPi+GT3 race tonight (P20:00, Q20:30)?
Guess that is a no. ๐
RR is down atm anyway
Still down?
I am reading this slightly too late
Server starting now so right on time
Then hurry up! ๐คช
I could do some driving tomorrow i think... maybe
do we want to dpi, or do we want to porsche cup?
or do you all do the ranked championship and i will be alone
Anyone interested in anything right now? (except for MX5) just booted up
10 minutes until the GTR1 race starts, 5 players in the lobby +me
Make it 7
I would be up for something tomorrow evening
Some more people in for some racing tonight. Or is everybody doing mx5?
quite a few doing mx-5 so wouldn't be surprised ๐
What a losers ๐ฅฒ
If anything at all I might actually try the DPi competition again (despite saying I won't), because P1 was possible. If I would have managed to not lose the 3 tenths in sector 2 and the beginning of sector 3, I would have been P1 already...
@untold crag there wasn't even excessive cutting on my PB, but it's definitely possible to cut like crazy
Oh, and I'll also upload a recording of yesterday's GTR1 race, 8 people attending, stretched out nonetheless, but I had a 20 minute long battle for the win
8 people in an non organized gtr1 lobby is pretty decent
I might also be up for just doing another gtr1 if it will be a bit populated with randos
I managed to get pole position by a few hundredths of a second, and from the green lights the fight was on, great battle...
ah so it would have been a free p1 for me ๐
Indeed. There were 5 people when I clicked "join" and 7 (myself included) when I got onto the track. I think we were 10 people somewhere during qualifying, but 8 people started the race, which is pretty good, as you said
It'll be one for you today, as I won't race today ๐

To cite @unborn raven:
IMAGINE READING
(I'm sorry)
np, I did read.
I know
How's your day so far, @untold crag?
great, thanks for asking ๐
Who asked?
@rancid orchid asked
You're right
So we gonna do something?
suggestions?
don't think i'll drive that today (never driven it before)
literally everyone is racing the mx5 champ rn
I dont think so, the mackenbergs are not for sure
also think christian is not
colin is playing automation atm
i mean
i know, i know, i exaggerated
gtr1 is fine, but i'm always in for some praga stuff aswell
I dont really understand the prage
im in gtr1 atm
lets see if someone joins
if we can get like 6 cars or somthing i guess we can race ๐
@crimson abyss @untold crag around?
im doing sth else atm :(
idc, stop doing it and join
ok
prematurely rip my rating i think
Nissan will hurt me
did i f up? i wasnt sure
i might have misjudged the lenght of the gumperts nose a bit and you did in fact switch lines before t1.
I'm really sorry for t1, at least i didn't end anybodys race
i'd say it was more on me
yeah i went slightly narrow
T1 was almost a deja vu for me
i forced us 3wide
i didnt want too!
i was afraid i would miss my marker and nail sven ><
it happened so quickly ><
Difficult to judge who was at fault there
it looks so violent in vr ><
well you were not, that is for sure
i felt so ashamed tbh
i think that @rancid orchid and me were to blame. I was waaaaay too early on the brakes
he wasnt even shown on the radar โ
and michael fehry late
who?
jasper until very late
At least it didn't cost me anything, because I had messed up with my fuel number. Wanted to adjust because the number was too high thanks to Otterhud freezes, but I adjusted way too much
really?
at that distance, Jasper should have been clearly visible on the radar
oh huh
that is true
that is odd, i basically appear on the radar after contact
the game also gave me a slowdown for that incident
@modest kayak remember the clip i sent where you just disappeared?
yeah but that was on both sides, cause everybody also dissapeared for me
but i had no issues this time
well, with the game
but sorry for the incident, i should have waited, but in the moment i felt a bit like the victim. but in the replay i think its a 50/50 blame
i can agree on this ๐ป
seems like with the field so small and the rating fairly close nobody really gained or lost massively rating wise anyway
so that is at least not adding insult to injury
rip bandini -8.7 rep
yeah why did he leave?
anyway, what's next?
hahaha
Thursday ๐ฌ
you want to be pinged off again? ><
i dont think i am able to do another one tho
i am VERY sweaty
it was really hot in the room
the pccc has 3 players on with 14 minutes of practice
@next pivot can we get gtr1 in the next scheduele as well?
oef, that is not much
and its a fairly long race right?
30 mins till the start of the race
not if you sleep now
i thought it would have started way earlier
there was one 2h earlier
not tomorrow's new schedule, but it can definitely return on the schedule - gives a little bit of time to discuss track ๐
Why not tomorrow?!
because
basically too late
yeah
need to know before the schedule gets created on mon/tuesday ๐
you can find out the new combinations already, at least a couple. competitions are already up
2 multiclass races? ๐ค
same as this schedule, yeah
oh, i didn't notice ๐
sometimes it's a nice mixed field of tcr's/praga, other times it's single class. so in a way "it works", just like the gt3/dpi
gibe leaks
No ๐
wude shorty
there will be ||some car|| and ||some trackname here||, and of course ||something else||
brilliant coffee
i clicked the first and thought meme still clicked the other 2
i'm interested how the turnout for ||#1816|| will be
also ||actual leak incoming,|| the ||qualifying times|| will be ||slightly longer again|| for the ||sprint races||
ah, yeah 6 seems a bit too short^^
yeah.. and getting the drivers "more competitive" didn't work at all ๐ ||so it's going back to 10 minutes||
I might be able to do some race tonight, is the new schedule released today or not, i alway forget rotation day @next pivot
Always Thursday
Also, @modest kayak check #schedule it's stated in the top red bar
well, it still says today ๐
If you check the former schedules you'll notice that the last day of the current schedule always equals the first day of the following schedule (Thursday)
fair enough ๐
Fehr enough
fehry
What's your name according to crew chief again? Jasper van der Fehr?
<
i am a bit confused by that tbh
i expected him to make it "fart"
but i guess not
Only by that? ๐
well, its the closed english sounding wordt to vaart
is basically fart but with a long sounding "aa"
It means either speed or canal (in dutch, but it is most likely from canal), before people get ideas btw
That v sounds like f?
yeah in dutch we dont really make distinction between the two sounds
Hahaha "fart" (literally from sound) in catalan is "fed up"
Matches
!jaspervanfedup
I wish !vrp would return tho
@rancid orchid I presume you want to do dpi this 2 weeks?
I personally see nothing interesting else this schedule tbh
Frx22 as well, for the lulz
its on hungaru tho
Yeah not anything for me there really
bit of a shame, last 2 week was very good tho
- i think this scheduele will do well with more casual players
Possibly
next schedule gtr1 will return
I don't find it THAT exciting tbh. Would love to have a DTM92 combo that actually worked ๐
like that will be populated ๐
more likely than gtr1
I was actually surprised that gtr1 pulled some numbers without us organising something occasionally
still not great, but not terrible either
will most likely be at nurb because of irl dtm next schedule, which should get decent numbers
92 at nurb?
I remember some desolated DTM92 at Nรผrburgring some weeks ago, but maybe that was one of them longer races? Don't quite remember
i would also be happy with a touring classics at norisring tho :PPPP
Tyre lock-up fest
It actually wasnt that bad with those sgp races
I did a couple of ranked ones so I know the combo ๐ It was kinda bad. Those cars are more fun on flowing tracks imo
hm might actually make a littl emore sense considering we had dtm'92 at nurb not too long ago
oh i disagree, at the norisring was probably one of the most fun simracing experiences i have had the last couple of months
does 95 still pull numbers tho?
usually does
hmmm, might be a solution, although christian doesnt like them as much as the 92 i think
however, if it pulls numbers we might see the addition of some 95 cars #copium
I think I'll do the 22:00 Silverstona race today. feel free to join aswell.
@rancid orchid @rancid orchid @modest kayak
@opaque dew
No, I'm having a beer RN, can't.
Beer enough
If I find some time to practice before I might join
Just send it!
But we have company over atm. So really depends on when they leave
Throw them out already
Who needs practice anyways?
(don't)
its not my company, my girlfriend invited them over ๐
Then why would you care? ๐
Cause she cares ๐
@opaque dew asking the important questions
I know, I'm just kidding ๐
They still here
I have been driving the dpi a bit yesterday but I struggle a lot with it under braking. I soften it all around and that made it already a lot more stable into corners. But I still struggle in heavy braking zones. Any Idea how to make it more compliant?
I use 97% brake pressure, BB at 55% (or what you're comfortable with), engine brake reduction at 20, increasing diff preload and diff coast locking a bit might also help.
Most important is to not lock the rear brakes. Try coasting into corners and brake a tiny bit earlier than you think you would have to
Hmmm what is bb at default?
Don't remember ๐
I dont actually lock the rear brakes tho. It just seems extremely unstable on braking and turn in
The rears also seem the lose traction on coasting occasional. Like the nose is fine with the turn in speed. But the rears just dont grip
But arbs didnt really help me out there ๐ฅฒ
Did you try to change slow dampers and slow rebound at the rear? Might help with the weight shifting, if you give those 2 clicks up or something like that, so the rear doesn't get as light...
And in general you have to be gentle with your steering while braking
Especially with your rear wing lower than 16-18 degrees
The rear steps out on corner entry after releasing the brakes?
tried diff? maybe even engine brake reduction?
Surprisingly the car became more unstable doing that. Lowering made it so much more compliant ๐
Eeehm, yeah weight shifting back to the rear seems to be an issue. But not always it just decides to do a kill occasionally
Diff is mostly on power right,
how about coast?
Does diff influence things on coasting?
I am not a setup pro at all
I am mostly driving not setting up ๐ but the default setup for the dpi is not a joy to drive
isnt there diff value/option called coast?
Ah that sound sensible. I'll check tonight
Diff coast locking is something I have a few clicks higher
I can also provide like 5 different setups if you're interested, with one of them I managed P2 (ahead of Colon) in the recent competition at indy
I would be interested yeah
I want to be able to make my own. But in rr I am just not well versed with the physics atm
@modest kayak
my dpi setup (still based originally on Kodi's Daytona setup, but with some changes by myself
"default" wing levels on this setup are 1/19, the competition lap at Indianapolis was done with 1/16
lets take a looksie
ah yes a lot more stable under braking, and coasting, but lot more unstable on power
but at least a LOT better than default
thanks ๐
Ooh, this car sounds like an interesting setup challenge ๐ Competition should be FTP so I'm all good even if I don't own it I think
i think i made a breakthrough ๐
what is btw a decent race pace lap there?
You used my meme dampers? ๐
hahaha, not really. well i tried it, it did improve some things, but mostly in the front
but i changed the preload and it made the car SO MUCH better on corner entry
alright, in what world is this an offtrack
you shouldnt drive there
you mean on that part of the track, or on silverstone in general? ๐
both tbh
<
god, I hope the christmas specialโข๏ธ update will be new track limits system
fixed in next update
any eta? ๐
dont you know when next update is?
i presume the 20th
but you all can pull a reiza and release it the 20th of next month ><
20 july but next year
nah July was stated clearly
you clearly havent had any experience with reiza dates ๐
but they also said 'next month'
It wasnt so bad in the beta. There, updates were semi-regular.
they still kinda are, just never on the date the set
my favorite delays are for blog posts
which july
like this week
the first one in the year
i remember some were supposed to come next day only for a week+ wait ๐
which year though
i spent like 5 minutes in old one
cuz thats pretty much the only thing keeping it away from a lot of people. Current 911 is unusable without bop
and mostly checked art in new one
I think there would be enough variation
maybe no single seater is bad, but there are cars for everyone. Rookies can use caymen club or 964 (I think thats the one)
and group c could serve as a fast option
with gte multiclass maybe
ruf cup
gtr 1 ruf multiclass with group c at BRNO ๐
oh, even better:
only german tracks aswell
with the priority of being closer to Stuttgart, the better
gtr1 ruf multiclass with gtr3 ruf
why exclude the gtr2 ruf?
many people dont own the gt3 ruf. Including me :(
because 3 classes is too much
tell that to le mans
L
br endurance would be better ๐
this sentence is cursed. doesnt matter how many dots I add, the smiley never forms correctly ๐
also they have higher car limit
br?
brazilian
๐ง๐ท
ahhh
they have (or used to have) like 10 classes lol
they basically allow anything
nords 24h also has a lot (did have more in the past tho)
yeah, but at least theres a massive amount of cars
@rancid orchid what pace decent in race?
I'd have to try the combo first tbh
I only fired up my pec yesterday to save the setup under Silverstone for sharing purposes, I haven't driven a single lap in the DPi yet
Ah okay
I looked at the comp but my average time on hards with half a tank is already p3. So that does not really help
Although I do really think default for this car is extremely bad
So not many people bother
And I can't promise to race or even practice today with the current temperature and humidity level at my location ๐ฅต
What's the laptime you did?
And have you tried any other track with the setup? Like Spa, Portimao, Daytona?
Race pace atm is mid 46 to 47 flat
But those are on a very odd setup while mostly testing... the setup and not nailing every corner
I think high 45 should be very doable on hards
If not even faster
Alright, pro tip just for you: ๐
Take the DPi to a single player race, half distance of the ranked race, in total 10 DPi and 16 GTR3s (or just take the full dtm21 grid) at AI level 104-106.
That's what I'm mostly driving and without traffic it is sometimes a struggle to even keep up with the AI.
If you can manage to stay at least in the mid pack of the DPi's you should be good imho, since there aren't too many players using the DPi in ranked anyway
I did that at spa. But the ai was truly alllll over the place
Some corners they were so rapid, and some corners basically standing still
That's why the overall laptime matters
If I try the combo today (probably not on ranked though) I might stream a bit
If the temperature goes down to an acceptable level and my wife goes to sleep early enough I'll probably race the whole night (no promises though)
what does 'whole night' mean for you?
Thursday?
... is update day
aka game dead
im already sad
Oh damn
I'll see what I can do this week, Thursday probably won't be possible for me
why are you so pretending to be so popular ๐
@modest kayak have you tried the DPi at Silverstone leaderboard competition yet? I did about 25-30 minutes and managed to get two valid laptimes, currently p10 with a 1:46.9, only 2.5 seconds off of P1
I have not, but i have done a faster time in practice with half a tank on hards
I dont think the setup you shared with me is very good at silverstone, way too little df
Erm... A good friend of mine and myself have a scheduled call/gaming evening every Thursday, which didn't happen for the last 2 months because he was moving to a new place etc.
Rest of the week is just casual and basic family life tbh
but i changed some things around and got something stable working
I increased it to 2/20 I think ๐ค
i think i run 2/23, so that is pretty close
The one I shared is basically my default to get going, I only adjust small stuff like aero and gearing on a per track basis
oh i really changed a lot
made it a bit softer and stuff
i just created a stable sending machine
not really quick i think tho, but at least it doesnt kill me all the time
Even if it might not be today it would be pretty sweet if we get this combo at least once
With a semi decent amount of players
yeah i agree
we can also set a date next week and try to get some people in
i cant imagine the mackenbergs not at least getting in gtr3
They drove the DPi at least once on Spa, which was a great race
ah maybe they will dpi if that is the case ๐
Or they'd split up
i dont think @crimson abyss owns the dpi, or will be willing to buy it
He seemed interested at least when we had the DPi setup discussion a few days ago
Hey, I can try the competition if it's f2p โบ๏ธ
yeah but we want some people for the race ๐
but you are welcome to join in a gtr3 i guess ๐
Better chances for me then
We'll see ๐ Not loving Silverstone in GT3
i am not loving silverstone in general ><
I want these cars on mid ohio ๐
I liked the old layout where Schumacher broke his leg
LOL
we should just get some of the really big guns in
ready for some VERY brave pings
@jovial valley @astral oriole why dont you join us, it has been a very long time since i encountered one of you online ๐
- it has been even longer ago since jf called me a low df loser
DPI/GTR3 @ SILVER ranked raid - soon (tm)
We could do an absolute meme race with the frx22 where everyone spins at the start and the next three corners because of the biggest turbo lag ever created
With devs of course
With the audacity to tag the devs you should have the balls for one fun race... โน๏ธ
Also, you just need to finish, just use map 1 all the way until everybody dnf'd or got dsq for loss of control
Easy gains against loads of 2k+ players
I am actually quite decent in the frx22, not quick, but i can keep it on the road consistently
however, free week is over, so now i have to buy it
[x]
i guess ill just sideswipe you off the track again
I'll do that myself
true ๐
Just ask @untold crag if he has a clip of the great rr shenanigans DTM2020 start at Suzuka, where I spun instantly and scared everyone to death.
Glorious times when Hugo was still around
Jeez, I might have a recording of that myself, just need time to look for it
Oof I wish that the DTM2020 didn't have the RR dead rear end of doom. Cuz I love the concept of Class One
We didn't knew the 2020 cars had launch control back then 
They do feel a bit odd indeed
I have grown to like the class one dtm
altough i still think the tirewear they have is VERY unrealistic
I love them, I just drive the sht of of the prototypes
Whaaaaat? Tires don't get worn out super fast with shitloads of downforce?
well, when i was at the norisring in 19 i saw rast drive the tires for 55 mins
i cannot even get close to that stint time in game
Yeah, in the opening race in 2019 he drove a similar amount of time at Hockenheimring after an early pit stop iirc....
Have you tried 55 minutes at Norisring?
yeah, but i struggled a lot at 40 mins, came very close to 0%
but i spun and died before hitting 0
Mate, they have mandatory pit stops with tire changes...
I just looked it up. In the season opening race 2019 rast did change tires under an early safety car, which forced him to do a second pit stop changing tires
They're not supposed to go 55 minutes (full distance) on one set
No offense, I had to look it up myself
in the norisring he changed in lap 2 after spin and did not do a 2nd stop
Really?
i think they have no pitstop window
they just have to do a stop
but can do whenever right?
Okay, could be
i presume the norisring has a bit less demanding corners than hockenheim, but still
Geez, that's already 4 years ago and I only watched the first weekend back then ๐
Setup, tire pressures, weather...
true, but still it seems those tires just wear stupidly quickly, i mean they become undrivible early, but puncturing them so easily is crazy to me
But you're right, they didn't have a pit stop window back then, but changing tires under a safety car does not count as a mandatory stop
Also, in real life you don't really reach 0% ๐ I don't think 0% in RR means literally no thread. In ACC with its less gamefied tyre wear, you can drive on them way past the 'limit' for when they should be changed
he was helped in a spin and managed to get in the pits right before a sc was called, so he didnt lose a lap in the stop which all the other stoppers did
yeah i presume 0% means 3 wear in acc
Then it might be the right strategic call on a track like Norisring
oh yeah, was amazing, he went from 1st to last to first in a race
Nah, 3 wear (aka 0mm thread) is literally no thread I think
but isnt it that in rr as well?
Haven't seen that be reached I think
Doesn't mean 0% wear in RR you'll get a puncture almost instantly?
Happens a lot quicker in RR so I kinda doubt it
But yes this is right
0% wear in Raceroom is at most 2 laps until puncture
that is true, but i have only really reached it with sprint tires, and they are instantly gone
i btw think the dpi tire wear is also a bit extreme
The only track I struggled with the DPi's tire wear was Watkins Glen while trying to stay close to Colin
I still have the replay I think. Dont know if any clio exists tbh
its not that i struggle on making a stint, but i think irl the dpi were able to triplestint tires... good luck doing that in rr ๐
Iirc we restarted the race right after, so there might be no replay file of the mayhem... If I recorded my gameplay back then I might make some clip
I'll look into it when I'm home again ๐
I think I still have recordings of every raceroom session I did since 10/22
What track and stint lengths? For Le Mans, for example, it's not that hard to multi-stint tyres when stints are, what, 40 minutes or so? And they're driving mostly in a straight line
I think daytona, 40...ish minute stint
but the dpi in rr really eats tires
Shouldn't be THAT different from Le Mans irl then, unless the banking causes some extra wear
maybe some, but not an insane amount i would presume
Does the RR DPi have different compounds?
medium and hards
I see
IRL prototype endurance have spec tyres or what?
No longer an FFA like N24 I guess?
I have absolutely no clue
Ah there are different tyre manufacturers for WEC too, except LMP2
But they shouldn't be too different I guess
Don't forget the RT24-P was racing from 2017 to 2021, I'm not familiar with IMSA and it's tires though
oh i thought they were all the same for one class, but different between classes
true, but i dont think tire regs changed in the final year of dpi. but not sure
If you're still feeling brave, you could ping @weary stag and ask him how realistic the interpretation of the RT24-P and DTM2020 tires are ๐
IMSA rules only allowed one compound per race weekend which was specified at the start of the season. Softer one for cooler races, harder one for hotter races
These are resembled by the medium and hard compounds we have available for the Mazda?
Yes
๐
would the default weather of rr dictate the medium or the hard as the single tire?
Anything you can tell us how Renรฉ Rast managed to do a nearly full race distance on one set of tires during the 2019 dtm race at Norisring?
Probably the hotter race I'd guess, as double stinting the mediums doesn't seem to be doable imho
(where the context is that it seems quite impossible on RR DTM2020 soft tyres, I guess ๐ )
double stinting hards is also already quite a challenge i think
But at least it's possible
true
To double stint mediums you'd have to set fuel consumption to 2x
triple not tho
@next pivot the beginning of august will see imsa at ra, will we see a raceroom special enduro there with instead of the p2/gtr3 the dpi/gtr?
That would be lovely
its acutally a 2.4hr race irl as well
And my ranked calendar suggestion features the DPi>R3 at Road America โ
hahah, amazing timing ๐
Pure coincidence to be honest, I only had the WEC calendar in mind and tried to fill the gaps in between with some fun/accessible tracks with a bit of variation between the locations.
RA ended up there purely on RNG
It's destined to happen @next pivot to be Fehr
will indeed be on the schedule between 10.08 - 24.08, so.. sat 12.08 or 19.08 could fit. think in the past we did 2 hours of Road America
so will we see one again? ๐
I can
I can if it rains
You need rain to play video games?
otherwise i will go and do some outdoors sporting ๐
Guess we're 2, Jasper probably doesn't count
also, get rekt ๐
Gib setup
i can send it later, i am currently on my working laptop
It means the laptop does the work
i just ask chat gpt to write the code
but the setup isnt that special, lot of df, some softer suspension all around and some more preload
it could be improved a lot
on lb? i think i did 10 laps or smthing
haha me too
the car feels a lot different with mediums than with hards, the setup was build around hards
How many valid ones? I think I got 2 valid laps out of 10-12 laps in total
hahaha, 4 valid ones i think ><
if i nail a lap without going off i think i could do a high 45
On LB?
...guess I'm slow then โน๏ธ
i also made a very stable setup, so you can really yeet it into the corners
I just want it a little bit more stable on power
cause i need to run quite a bit of tc
I just added bit more downforce and shortened the gearing, can't compare it to map5 with higher top for a race configuration
60% is what I'm running
Map3
owh
As fixed setups usually are
its not fixed?
It isn't, but the engine map is fixed at 3
Aren't the tire pressures fixed as well on LB mode?
yep
Take your setup into practice mode in singleplayer, no ai, default fuel, medium tires, map 5 and see what you can do
my average pace was around 46 high
but i havent really searched for nailing the lines
and that was on hards, setup is made around hards
I did a 45 with all settings either min or max ๐
Probably not the best, but better than default. In general, most setup adjustments make a surprisingly small difference in this car
I have some strong opinions on many of the default setups, but everyone always go on about how great they are, so it's probably just a me thing ๐
i am in the middle about most setups, but this one is just making the car extremely not fun
i think with some tweaks the car is a lot more enjoyable to drive, on default it is just increadibly hard to drive while being not that quick
I presume it also really scares away some players
P20.00+30+20min?
Yes
I might be able to join as well
maybe ๐
Haven't raced you in a while now ๐ป
Yeah, agree, will try to join as well.
my jealousy is unmeasurable
Need a hug?
yes
Aren't you doing this to yourself? Choosing physical exercise, so called "sport" over joining a race you suggested yesterday?
In German there's a saying: Sport ist Mord
Don't do this
i said thursday didnt i?
Yeah, you're right
gaslighting me
my girlfriend is out of town on thursday so i can drive the entire evening
I can still send the setup later today tho
Don't force it, if you can't find the time
lol its just sending a file, i should be ok ๐
not what people normally do
what would people normally do? ๐
get black out drunk?
party have freinds over do other things lol at least from what i know of people here
I still have to work the next day ๐
have to submit a paper for publishing next week
u heard of being ill
I guess there aren't any girlfriends around, where you're from โน๏ธ
Forced illness through alcohol ๐
whats a gf
you gonna drive tonight paul?
60 minutes of DPi>R3 at Silverstone, race starting in ~6h
class
as you fish ๐
Fehr enough
i was suposed to do some practice instead i got my info for where and when im off to and more legal bs to fill in
It is indeed much more yeetable than the on I was using... Matching your LB time with +.125 on my first attempt
you should be quicker than i am anyway. i am very rookie in this car ๐
haha even beating @crimson abyss
just did a gtx race, went very well until i decided to spin in final minutes of the race, always nice
although i did get complimented on my rejoin, so that was something
Well, this was the setup I used to set that time ๐
looking solid
It's under "shared". And I don't like to share
Ah I understand
That is also why you keep uploading setups after the competitions close. I understand
It turned out pretty helpful imho, to vastly increase the fast bump and fast rebound values on both axles compared to your setting, I barely noticed all these sausages lying around in the UK, apart from the massive ones, obviously
Oh I already absolutely ate the smaller sausages
But I'll check the merged setup in the coming days
Only had 40 minutes to drive today
So, who is in? ๐
sorry, Im not
Is joining in quali possibly? Might get late in my end but I really want to join today
yes its possible
Then I expect to see you there too, who cares if you don't want to race anymore
im not just burned out, I also got better stuff to do rn ๐
Yup Colin, move your ass on the server. I will be there soon TM.
Sure thing, I was joking
Huh, could barely make it to the server. So many players ... ๐คฏ

Michael will crash
oh i thought u where being serious then saw the screenshot
such a cool thing
doesn't look like anyone else joining ๐ฌ GLHF if you all keep racing!
yeah, as a "pro" sprint race
ah, tnx
It's a bit more crowded than 60 min DPi+GTR3 race this one. ๐
And got killed before Eau Rouge, lol.
Half of the grid was actually. ๐
Did the race happen?
Almost.
Owh
It was this ๐ค close.
What went wrong?
1 driver before i left
Lol
Can we try Thursday again?
Felty said track limits will be fixed then as well
had any other cut in mind than that next to pit entry?
I think this one is enough. My god is bad. ๐
I think others are fine on that track.
why do yall drive so far right there?
I think that C. Blankenburg is typing ...
I think that there is a racing line there.
I think I'm not wrong.
I think I have enough RR for today.
Need For Sleep
I think youre dumb for thinking that I think what you think about track limits.
I think it's only important what @rancid orchid thinks.
fehr...
There are some odd ones. But that one is really really bad
Side by side moments
feel free to report if u get cuts within white lines, out of stuff i heard i only managed to replicate that pit entry one
I thought cuts were not changed anymote
Hope we can. If we join at the start of the practice session (so the people will see that there are few of us on the server and join us), it might actually work.
maybe some gtr3 cars are willing to try the new porsche as well
might boost it a bit
Jurassic park incoming.
DPI/GTR3 @ SILVER ranked raid - Thursday 20th at 20:00
can you do a ping to everyone in the chat somehow?
@ here?
not an option i think for non mods
Try it, you're the op
But it doesnt work. ๐
Nope
sad
Insert "We have no power here!" meme.
I'm sure Chris will help us so nothing to worry.
Update opening image, still sgp from the unranked event ๐ not sure if it really makes sense to ping here today to racw tomorrow, wouldnt it make more sense to ping tomorrow after lunch? ๐ค
Alsp pro tip, a few individual tags are possible, but if you tag too many at once it will get blocked by the bot ๐ (cuz spam)
The bot truely sucks
does anyone look at the opening image at all?
People browsing the #1027886301082558544 channel can see the picture
You could ask Chris kindly for the picture they're using on the schedules feature both the DPi>R3 cars and use that, maybe even with a red banner screaming "RANKED" on the top of it
At least that's what I would do
But that only makes sense if we stick to the DPi>R3 combo, so scratch that
owh, why cant i change the post easily, i can only change the title easily
You have to scroll all the way up, don't you?
top right
also, i'm not a photoshopper, i'd just take a screenshot from the latest schedule : P
f
maybe it is cause i am on the web version and not the app
but i do not have the app on my workstation
cool cool cool
the search function works hehe, hopefully you can change the pic now
(i can't, not the OP)
Great idea to pin the opening post!
Sounds like a to do for when you're home again (as changing the tags to "ranked" "feature" smth like that)
If you don't want to change the tags for every combo, I'd suggest you just go for "ranked" "feature" and the timeslot
but the tags are easy really, they are just an scroll option on the top right for me
ranked bug featureโข๏ธ
to confirm: new Porsche is available on the server tonight
Guess I have to do some hotlapping ๐ฅฒ
I also need some preparation time
btw what is the way to go, 2x medium or 2x hard tonight?
I haven't tested the tire wear on the mediums yet...
me neither
2x hards is the safe bet
yeah i guess i will run that
You can start on mediums and see if you can make them last 30+ minutes
If yes, 2x mediums, if not, try to go 20 minutes mediums and switch to hards
Should be doable...
If you start on mediums you should start with at least 55-60 litres, just in case 30 minutes on mediums are possible...
If you have to pit earlier, you should refill the full 75 litres. I think in total about 100-110 litres will be needed
I guess i will just start on hards and full and see how far ill come, if i am very far behind the pack i can always gamble and enlongate the stint as much as possible and switch to mediums
If you have about 50-60% tire life left after 30 minutes, you should be good to go for mediums after 35 minutes without major issues
yeah i would guess so as well
however, my pace will be a bit all over the place
some spins as well
The update brings some more grip, you should be okay
i will get overconfident
how dare you
๐ฅฒ
well, if nobody joins i hope @next pivot is willing to open up a pccd at norisring server ๐
can make an unranked server for that sure
ranked pccd is at nords
why pccd at nords? wouldnt endurance spec make a lot more sense?
it's a 20 minutes race or something like that, not exactly endurance - and it has a full grid of liveries
that is true, do you know if more endurance spec liveries are coming? cause like the gtx they seem a bit... on the low side?
i hope so, but can't guarantee it ๐
I hope so too, I watched the gtx race yesterday (which was a great watch) and the duplicate liveries were driving me insane
@rancid orchid, @modest kayak, @untold crag, @barren seal - DPi+GTR3 tonight? P20:00.
Ill be around
but i want to have somebody to race
if you guys are gonna be seconds a lap quicker... or slower there is no real fun
@elfin crown, @cloud granite, @gloomy quarry, @spare pasture, @normal fractal and others ...
@sly siren @alpine shadow
@next pivot you better join as well! ๐
You can take Only Bans McLaren if you want! ๐
@uneven echo feltybelty can also join
If he promise he won't crash.
No time today
bit tired tbh, yesterday was a long day and today was a bit busier than expected ๐
well...
I cant
What? Today? No chance, sorry
@opaque dew this is not looking good
I can
But will you?
Hospital for me. Nothing serious it seems
if the game allows me, sure
Thats good to hear (not the not attending part obviosuly).
I'll join early and pray for the best outcome.
No time today, same as pretty much every Thursday
Same
But I am not gonna do a mini dpi field race for that long
@grave seal!
I ll try to make it. Got held up at work.
No racing possible for me on weekdays, except for holidays...
I may join on Saturday, if there are others
I've raced alone in DPI last Sunday...
I'm on vacation.
@opaque dew do you get the game running?
I dont atm :(
me neither
will check in a few minutes
i presumed the game to be slow... not to be not working at all
this is a bit of a bummer
Imagine 20 people saying they want to do this race today and noone is getting in... โน๏ธ
life could be a dream
it is a simulation
Microsoft Life Simulator 2023
The sims
With add-ons?
mods
i am bit confused tho, how did the game crash and burn?
usual issue
are there more players than when everything was free?
i mean it seems like we go from 0 players to 500 ish and somehow that kills it
can @next pivot shed any light ?
just refresh Colin!
but i would expect that the buying spike is over now?
Not if people have issues loading stuff for hours now
ofc not, all those folks keep buying either a single car or the full pack
ah so its a user error
Who's that @next pivot guy all of a sudden? Sounds like a nice guy though
that's been a while actually, a beer. never was much of a beer fan
i have drunk 2 types of beer in my life belhaven and tennants
well, ofc when we went out it was a nice refresher after 3 tequila's - but at some point when you keep that up you don't even taste it
tequila is a dangerous game as is any type of shot
๐ข
Yes, I can start the game but can't join any session.
I have a bad feeling about tonights race - unless a miracle happens in the near future. ๐
yep
But I see that there are some people on the ranked servers, so there is a hope.
Maybe it affects just us who bought the new content. ๐
no it really depends on patience and luck, you either get in or you don't, and then you have to "join at the exact right moment"
im trying to get in the server atm
but i see 0 players in ranked atm
so that is not great
should be 22
well, 1 server with f4 has 20, you're one, and there's one in america spa ๐
but in total around 100 on multiplayer
yeah youre in
ah wait, this was before the server was open ๐ my bad
But my browser showed only empty ranked servers
hehe, filters? ๐
Loading, might be there in an hour or two. ๐
Nope, I'm back in menu.
i am alone
oh right, dont panic
DONT
Will refresh.
the long waitโข๏ธ
