We've had 3 rounds now and finally got a new race winner, two new winners in fact :). Pity about the connection issues MitDawg but well done Phillip and StraightXed. A huge effort from Phillip with the racing finishing at 3am in Vancouver time.
Round 4 takes us to Amsterdam Outdoor but last time I ran on this track, there was framerate issues. Not severe but rather inconvienient. Please test for yourselves and let me know how you go. If there is too much of an issue, we'll move onto Xplex.
Thanks and see you on track

Forgot to mention the date.....28th March is the race date and as per usual server will be up from 5.30pm and race meeting proper will commence at 7.00pm.
Thanks and see you on track

Unfortuntely no. I use my laptop to host games(runs happily at 4% CPU and < 10% RAM usage)since I can't really justify a 24/7 server at this stage. This may change if my plans for the 2nd half of the year come together as hoped but we'll see how things pan out. If all goes as planned, I will get a dedicated machine on my connection or preferrably a dedicated game server hosted online. Game servers are expensive though, especially in our neck of the woods.
Have decided to bite the bullet and updated an old server I have here. The host machine is now a dual Xeon 2.8Ghz with HT, 4Gb DDR-ECC RAM, 3x 36GB HDD in RAID 0. The server runs Proxmox and the game server will run on a Window XP virtual machine with more than enough resources allocated. That see us through for a little while. Just annoying having a loud server in my office but I'll make the sacrifice :(
Hi,
I try to race on the 28th! Last time was really good!
THX
Phillip
I may miss the race this week but I'll still have the server up. Dad's in hospital about to have a pacemaker installed. I will send admin rights to another user if required. Be good to have you back Phillip. Hope it doesn't interfere with your schoolwork though.
we'll see how things pan out over the next couple of days.
I won't make it either, delay it for a week mate...
Hey guys
I would be happy to delay it a week because i've got a heap of uni work at the moment but i can race tonight if we have enough intrest. It's up to you guys though to make the call
We may be having a test night next Wednesday or Sunday. Possibly both
Phillip may be making a return and Sambo72 should be making his debut with us. I'll be in tonight, arrow is still out but will be playing the role of the clerk of course and driving instructor :). Beta 6 has just been released so I am updating the server and my machine as we type.
Your uni work has to come first so I'd say concentrate on that for now. If you can race with us, then that's great but you have enough of a lead that you can miss 1 race night :) (and give the rest of us a chance to catch up).
Beta-6 download is really slow but I'll get it done before I see Dad in hospital. Just means less practice later.
I managed to get a fair bit done today so I'll be able to race tonight. Are we using Beta 6 tonight on the server? if that's the case I have to go download it lol
Beta 6 is what were using
haha yeah, i just read my messages lol, will be interesting to see the differences in the kart handling.
I assume we're delaying a week? Since it's 7pm and nobody is in the server haha...
I'm good with that - gives me a chance to redo my setup and learn the track!!!!!
Sorry mate. A bit of a balls up all round.
Round 4 will be held on the 4th April at the usual time. Another password will be sent the morning of the race.
See you on track
Jamie
Sounds good....;)
And then "Red House" or "Amsterdam"?
THX
Phillip
I will move Xplex to later in the season and re-adjust the calendar by Wednesday. Have a lot on my plate right now but I will get it done.
rye house not taesing you just leting you know
Will have to refer back to my lit and try a few tracks. I haven't had a run on Rye HOuse yet but the original Piboso tracks are high on the list for testing. Also have to setup a Youtube Channel for some videos :). All works in progress.
When we tested rye house, that was the best track yet, that thing is a beauty
I'd have to agree, Rye House is so much fun trying to get around, to technical and twisty with passing opportunities, so good :)
Server will be up for a test session at 8.00 pm Sydney time. Daylight savings is over so it's back to GMT +10. Sorry to be so late but I'm still at the hospital with my old man. No password tonight so everyone is welcome.
Cant wait.. Tim And I are keen as.
What track will we be running? Amsterdam?
AND REMEMBER, NEW PATCH HAS BEING RELEASED, MAKE SURE YOU UPDATE TO THIS..
Will be running Amsterdam Outdoor as per the schedule. The remainder of the calendar will be done Wednesday as well.
See you on track
Jamie

I'll install it on my machines and pm instructions. let me know if you're still stuck tomorrow
all good thank u
Acutally Sambo, you dont need the patch, its for people experiecing wheel problems with g27's and axis
I believe it rectified a server issue as well as aome other issues so please install it. It will definitely be on the server so best to be safe.
Well to the guys if they haven't got it:
http://www.kartracing-pro.com/downloads/kart.exe
Just overwrite the kart.exe in the directory..
Server is up and ready to go. Will be away till just before 7 but the race meet proper will start at 7.00pm.
Thanks and see you on track
Jamie
