hi I'm not sure if im missing something but ive setup a server, the options seem limited, for instance i would likle to run y server in practice mode only for say 8 hours ( variouys friends will connect at various times to do their very best lap times etc) however the dropdown menu will only go to 165 minutes total & i cant seem to turn off the qualify & race will it just keep running through a cycle as set ? i.e 165mins practice then quali then race etc ?? the trouble with this it will delete all the posted times through the day am i right ? is there anyway of getting round this ???? frustrating
you can set a lot more in the multiplayer.ini and the plr file. for example also set the server to testsession only which can be up to 24h long. Make sure the server is closed before you open and edit the files, otherwise the changes will be overwritten again.
Cheers -I'll try that Strange I have a good 20meg down & 1meg up Internet speed (tested ) A dedicated quad core CPU pc running the server & users of he server were reporting lag The data was saying 90% to 100% up (is this normal?) 45 to 50% down Only 4 to 5 people were on the server Have no idea why it was lagging ????? Any ideas ?
You can't turn off races, shortest is 2 laps. IE: if you set 0 or 1 laps it will default to 2 laps. Obviously you need 2 laps to allow for formation/rolling starts if used. Practice, Qualification and Warmup you can " Skip Session " ( scroll up in their menus ) Most practice sessions in real life are much shorter then the maximum. You can't save all sessions times in realtime in room, no unfortunate. You can get all that info in notepad.
A shame, I just wanted to leave a practice session up no quali no race just a weekend practice server that wouldn't reset (so lap times would stay) It's ok if say 20 slot available & once their taken at the begining of the weekend then they are only available to the same 20 throughout the weekend etc Shame this couldn't be changed etc
I think that is relative to the actual race distance / time as set in track files. So if you select a % you have add a value. Don't quote me please p
Yes there are a few things I would like. When you join to have all previous sectors of all drivers available , maybe by a download. But most of this stuff I think is tied to a room reload.
haven't tried it, but there is this... 30 hr test day. Multiplayer.ini [ Multiplayer Server Options ] Test Day="0" // 0 = normal sessions (practice, qualifying, warmup, race), 1 = 30-hour test "day"
Brill will give that a try Maybe my server wasn't lagging ( just one person complained maybe it was his end )
