Curious to see the mp server list. Hope I can get pings on all the servers again.

 

Nice, thank you for the update

 

Fantastic! Thanks for all your hard work.

 

Anyone try it yet? :-D

 

Just did a quick race with the daytona prototypes around laguna: feels great now (much much better around the center/on the straights).

Race results are also correct now... good work!

Just keep it coming (waiting for new content)!

 

Thx a lot !

I like this very detailed release note. Good job

 

Revised physics=adac 14 wttc physics standards?

Is the above correct?

Cheers

 

Anyone with mp ping issues before try mp?

 

Good news, Thank's and great Job !!!

 

Hi,
- Fixed a memory leak on dedicated server.
It has a dedicated server with this build?

 

I think they mean their servers

 

why have 100L gasolin in tank when the car only use 6L in a race. Thats like have 100kg extra and that isent fun at all to drive. DTM 92 nurbergring

 

Uh ok, the "functionality update" - great !
Thx guys,hope, now those who had constant issues (me not) can enjoy R3E now..

 

hi guys,

my owned content isnt being properly detected for some reason. i went to check out the hillclimb pack & on the website it tags the judd & track as 'owned', but no other cars. im sure i own at least the e30 & procar. however the price is only 469 VRP, which seems reasonable. just want to make sure everything is as it should be before i purchase. thanks

 

tried a 15min ai-race with the aquila, had tyrewear ON but they didn't pit in...wasn't the tyrewear synced to the racetime?

 

Please send us a private message either here on the forums or send us a ticket in the helpdesk and we'll take a look.

 

Would a pitstop be necessary in a race that short?

 

yes

- Fixed an issue where the default steering lock would change to the wrong default locks.

tried to aquila (again) and wheel was 400/18, reset to default. wheel is (still) not sync with my dfgt.
