Hi all Ive been trying to change the practice start times (of day) for Leman and Silverstone on my dedicated servers so that practice is done at night. However, when changing the relevant part of the player.json file, it seems like the default time for the track cannot be over ridden. It works for other tracks, but not these 2 that I can see. Is there a way around it?
If the gdb is not encrypted you could make an update of the circuit with the practice start time that you want.
Use the following settings in the player.json: "MULTI RaceStartingTime":60, "Practice1StartingTime":60, "QualifyingStartingTime":110, I just tried this to confirm it works for newest versions of the tracks, and all sessions were at night for both le mans and silverstone.
FYI, the values for the lines Kevin listed are minutes after midnight. So midnight is 0, 1:00 am is 60, noon would be 720 (60*12) and so on. There is also a "WarmupStartingTime" in the json. I use edit-find and type in "startingtime" and cycle through to find the values and change them. I've been manually changing these values almost weekly on my dedicated servers for years. I cannot wait for the dedicated server UI to include these options.
Thanks both....well, ive changed the json, but for some reason its not working. I'll have a closer look tonight. Lemans is starting practice at 4pm, and silverstone 11am
Sorted it now, thanks guys. Was an error on my part....had 2 multiplayer json files in the dedi folder, was editing the wrong one as i put a shortcut to the wrong one one the desktop
