"David G Fisher" > wrote in message ... > It could be that most people stink badly in the F1 cars right now. > Hey David, what do you know about the results file with online races - getting very erratic stuff. Sometimes all the data (race laps, best lap and finishing position) are simply not there - latency related? Sometimes MY result file has no entry for ME at all - LOL. And I noticed today that I have laps on Racecast that dont even exist in the player records!!! (but I did do them) For me, if results reporting for online races gets properly sorted, this thing is a winner. Replay system stinks in comparison to even the oldest Papy sims though. But, at long last, it seems Kaemer has a need to stay on his toes! Hip, hip HOORAY! |

> Would you still recommend it? I'm still on the fence. Is it worth 39.00? I say wait and see if rFactor is the sim that's supposed to have every modder work on it. It shouldn't take long to see if it's truly where everybody's gonna work on mods for the next year or two. *then* it'll be worth it, or else we'll be stuck with a small number of cars and tracks and a good sim. But a good sim is not enough nowadays I say. -- -- François Ménard <ymenard> -- This announcement is brought to you by the Shimago-Dominguez Corporation - helping America into the New World... |

And as a final kick in the ribs, the > results file reports me as a DNF! not to sure about the lap problem. post over at rsc for the devs to look at. but in regards to dnf. if you go across the line then hit "escape" and not go back to your pit, you'll get a dnf. cheers steve |

Not too keen on the idea of a DNF for just not going to the pits. |

Not sure exactly what happened in your race, but the lap counter you see on screen shows laps completed, not the lap you are currently running. I was DQ'd when I ran one Q lap too many because I forgot that. -- David G Fisher |

I've seen online races where a driver was listed in the standins with a laptime, but where all the laps he had driven didn't have a time attached to it... Cheers! Remco |

If I was worried about stats, do I have to add one extra laps worth of fuel in my car so I can make it to the pits after a race? (Where's a tow truck when you need one?). |
