Here are the sources and the x64 dll for people who want to use it with vehicule name ... Sources > http://www.danrazor.net/rF2/Plugins/tykaracing-welcomeplugin.zip x64 dll > http://www.danrazor.net/rF2/Plugins/tykaracing-welcomeplugin_x64_dll.zip (The dll may alert your antivirus, take it at your own risk ...) Use vehicule name less "#Number" to set VehicleMassOptions in the json. Player not penalized are logged in the WelcomePlugin.txt (log) to help visualize the vehicule name used.
Hello, my modified plugin is now there : http://www.danrazor.net/rF2/Plugins/WelcomePlugin_By_DanRZ.zip Now : Uses "Description car" (found in veh files, less #XX) to set mass penalty in JSON. On warmup it modifies the grid to make sure all classes are not mixed at startup and fastest class starts first on grid.
Brilliant stuff, thanks for your efforts - we’ve been using the WelcomePlugin (purely for race info) forever but can make use of your recent work now too.
The mass penalty is really useful to balance cars and have even better BOP easilly without using any complex upgrades ...
Hello, i updated my version and added a readme and a json example. Package here > http://www.danrazor.net/rF2/Plugins/WelcomePlugin_By_DanRZ.zip Now there is a parameter to disable auto order by class and fastest in the json : "OrderByClassAndFastest": false Work in progress. Set it to true to activate it if you want to try it on a Multiclass race "at your own risks". Auto ordering works in Warmup and needs a qualification just before. The editgrid messages appear in console when it works. The mass penalty works perfectly. It just needs a check on every veh of cars/skins used in server. And some modders made their description unusable ... For example a description like "#03 IMSA 2023 John Doe on fire" for a Ligier JS P320 LMP3 doesn't identify properly the car when they make the same style on the Norma M30 LMP3 "#29 IMSA 2023 Alex Cutter". I use it on my server for the mass penalty part and it works flawlessly to make a simple BOP.
hi can i ask does the mass penalty stay for the selected driver the whole time there on the server or does it reset when you restart race.????
