Hi, so kinda tired of always driving the same tracks in multiplayer I set up a server for unpopular tracks. At the moment there is one with FR3 and one with GTR3 (+GTM13,14,15) cars. Tracks are like Bathurst, Suzuka, Sachsenring, Mid Ohio, Laguna Seca, Slovakia Ring, Hungaroring... But first I need some feedback if it even works properly. So let me know if you encounter any problems. Server Names are: "Race me! Unpopular Tracks! [FR3]" "Race me! Unpopular Tracks! [GTR3]" and please tell me if Training, Qualifying, race length are ok. I hope some guys come around to race but for now, I'm going to sleep (but let everything up and running). Maybe see you tomorrow.
Finally rent a vServer and set up 4 r3e servers. "Unpopular Tracks [GTR3]" with all GT3 cars (P 10m/Q 10m/R1 15m) Tracks: Bathurst Hungaroring Laguna Seca Mid Ohio Sachsenring Suzuka Sonoma Sprint Salzburgring Slovakia Ring Shanghai Circuit Monza GP "Unpopular Tracks [WTCC]" with all WTCC cars (P 10m/Q 10m/R1 15m) Tracks: Zolder Paul Ricard 1C-V2 Macau Moscow Raceway Shanghai Circuit (WTCC) Sonoma (WTCC) "Popular Tracks [GTR3]" with GTR3 class (P 10m/Q 10m/R1 15m) Tracks: Hockenheim GP Nordschleife 24h Red Bull Ring Spa Zandvoort Nürburgring GP "Trackday!!" with all cars except the hillclimb, GTR1 and GTRX Tracks: Spa (30min practice) Nordschleife 24h (60min practice) Monza (30min practice) Every server has following settings: Fuel Usage: Normal Tire Wear: Normal Flag Rules: All Cut Rules: Slow-down Visual damage: Full Mechanical damage: On Difficulty: Get Real Mandatory Pitstops: Off Feel free to make any wishes and suggestions. Like Tracks, car classes and other settings, P/Q/R lengths etc. I try to revive some "forgotton" tracks in multiplayer. So if you are tired of racing Hockenheim and Nürburgring all the time join my unpopular tracks server. I can also set up one with open wheelers or TT Cup or Group 5 etc if some are interested. So for now these servers are online 24/7. See you.
I mate! I 've been racing so far solely singleplayer against AI, so my MP experience is less than a mosquito fart But as I saw your server running such unusual tracks like Bathurst and Sonoma etc, I could not resist and had a few fun moments on your server. Thank you for that and Kudos for your idea!
much appreciated. Last night I also had some fun on hungaroring with the gt3 class. 10 people. I hope it will establish and more people will join the great but "forgotten" tracks.
Yeah good initiative, but I doubt those tracks are unpopular rather than most racers are too lazy to learn and check out something new cause many of those so-called "unpopular" tracks are very challenging and also lotta fun to drive...
Hi I tested your server and everything was running fine - there was just no population and i kept going on for the training and qualy - and still no one joined Maybe there should be 2-3 users constantly to not forget the server (if you know what i mean) Greets Jo PS: The Idea is great, keep going
yes i know what you mean. last night I was online and at the end of training some people joined. In qualifying some more joined and then I think we were 10 people in the race. At 1:00 in the night (CET)
I haven't tried the servers yet but I'd add Monza as a fairly unpopular track. I don't know why but I can't remember the last time I raced it online. It was a lot of fun back when the WTCC 2013 pack was released but since then it's dropped out in favor of an endless stream of Nurburgring GP servers (yes, it's great, not that great) EDIT: Also, the Sonoma stock car layout feels like it could be much better for online racing.
which one is the stock car layout of sonoma? Sonoma Sprint or the one the WTCC drives on?? Monza GP added.
Great idea, i'm sick at driving portimao and raceway. I would like that they set bathurst for free content.
I'd have to disagree. Servers using free content tend to be where all the trolls and crash kids hang out. We don't need more free content lol.
I kind of disagree, atleast not Bathurst with its narrow tracks and walls. Wont be anything else than a wreckfest and wasn't Stowe released as free track? The free content is, I suppose, a teaser to get the customer to buy the real content, cars and tracks. I have no problem with (personal opinion) DLC's as you can pick the cherry you want without having to pay for loads you will never use.
