Race 3 - Formula Abarth @ Silverstone International

[Crowella]

I couldn't do it. I thought I gave him more than enough room and apparently not.

[pixelboy]

Dammit... I suspect there is a bug in the latest server code..

one linux and the old windows server (that we ran evora on) both died..

[jakeryazli]

going to postpone?

[Crowella]

That said, I was briefly enjoying trying to catch Rots after my off.

[SE1Z]

Was great fun while it lasted, but I'm outta here!
Until next time fellas

[Cursed]

I was sitting on the grid at a 30-45 degree angle. That was a little strange

[pixelboy]

Yep postpone.. for now..

Yesterday I noted that there was a dedicated linux server, I decided to test that on a new lower cost server.. That's what we started on..

Then when it crashed during Qually i switched to the server we ran the Lotus @ Nurbergring.. it crashed

Not quite sure what to do now

[jakeryazli]

saw that, did not look right. Pixel, im thinking of logging off. Are you thinking of postponing or going again tonight?

[jakeryazli]

ahh, no problem, ill wait to see what is next on the site. Thanks for your effort, was still alot of fun and am looking forward to next time.

Keep it up!

Yeah I looked back and thought something was up.

Maybe we just need to wait for the net code to be a bit (read, a lot) more stable.

Other than that, it was great fun to be back racing again.

[pixelboy]

Lets open up entries again and try again next wednesday night..

[dvestate]

In case it gets called, positions at the bounce....

Use the windows version, it hasn't missed a beat in the xgn league, and we race it every week at least once.

p.s. I think we run it on a cpu intensive instance, which also got better networking.

[jakeryazli]

ahh, will not be able to race next week. Have fun though and see you after that.

Enjoy and good night

Next week is Game 3 SOO

That's the first issue we've had with a server going down. So we'll see.

[Crowella]

Was my ping really that high? I might have to discuss with my brother to not game online when I'm racing. Sorry if mine was a bit high

117 should be OK, thats what you were at my place

[DarrenM]

If you're going to pull out of a race, please don't do it on the racing line if you can avoid it

Shame about the server issues

Need slipstreaming for these cars.

[dvestate]

Need slipstreaming for these cars.

That would be awesome, we might have been able to stick with you!!!

[Crowella]

It's better than last time I hopped on LFS where I would eventually drop out, so that's okay.

Was there no slipstreaming? I had a stupidly low downforce setting which might explain why I caught everyone on the straights but lost them into Stowe

[pixelboy]

Ok, with SOO3 on next week maybe we put it back a fortnight..

The server during the race WAS the windows version.. maybe there is a bug in the update this week.. does XGN update the dedicate code.. maybe that's my mistake

[richo]

I'm very sorry guys about the ping issue I wasn't even aware of it you all seemed normal to me , That said I have just found out my 11 year old was uploading a 850 meg file to youtube ...

If that happens again please let me know and I will bail or fix I must have done 30 odd laps in practice and qualifying and no one mentioned it , shoot me a text via facebook if possible ?

Sorry again I know how much of a piss off it is for all of us.

[Crowella]

All good, I think a few of us mentioned it in the chat before the start of the race. It just seemed to spiral up and up.

[richo]

What chat ? Is there a chat thingy on AC ?

Major piss off because for the first time I was reasonably competitive maybe that's because i was warping
