Racing / Re: PFI GP PLATE JUNIOR X30
July 08, 2017, 12:19:49 AM
I've been trying out the tips and they have helped - thanks again.. I also searched the forums for oversteer and found some other great info that way. At least I managed to complete some laps! But they were at a familiar track.
I downloaded the PFI track today (thanks for the pointer - I had no idea even that PFI was a track!). Every time I try and go out on the PFI track though, the video motion jams down to about one or two frames a second.
After I inevitably spin off, sometimes the motion seems to normalise, sometimes it stays glitchy. But it always gets freezy & it's not useable like that. Could be my graphics card I spose...

In any case, the short news is that we are totally unprepared to race tomorrow, Saturday, 8th July, and regrettably have to back out for this one.
I'll watch the racing forum for news of future races you host, and of course feel free to pm me.
All the best - I hope the race works out and is great!
It would be great to see the results/lap times etc.

Hi Cory, Thanks very much for that. I finally got the X30s going when I realised there are two folders named kart racing pro on the computer, and after reading your message, sussed out it's not the one in the piboso folder!
We have a problem though. We've spent a couple of hours testing and trying dozens of settings changes, but it still spins off at the drop of a hat on the tighter bends. Seems to have terrible oversteer. We've tried different chassis too, but that seems to make little, if any difference. We have found other kart classes have been 'tame-able' with a little patience.
Any tips at improving control of the X30 would be gratefully received..!
Also, regarding the race on Saturday 8th July - which track will it be? or is it decided on the server by random selection?
Cheers again

Engines / Re: How do you add different engines

Hi again, do you mean create a folder, name it exactly  "engine and karts", or make two folders naming one 'engines' and one 'karts'?
and put that/those in the folder named 'kart racing pro'? or where?
Thanks!

Hi ethan, Very interested in joining, thanks for this setting up! My son and myself are new to the full version of krp, so please excuse our ignorance.. Can you tell us please: what kart is to be used? is it the MINI60? I don't see an X30 kart on the menu - is this an additional kart download? Also, which track is it please?
And being 'junior' I guess it's one for my lad rather than myself - is there an age range/limit for drivers please?
Many thanks again!

JonOfMine, thanks a lot for the help! You are right about the graphics message.
Just for the record, I was getting a 'missing file' error message upon loading krp, (should have mentioned it earlier). I eventually found out how to replace the file, and now I can save settings.
Looking forward to having the full license - and receiving the steering wheel, which is in the post..
Cheers!

Support / settings problem
June 29, 2017, 03:15:52 PM
Hello friends,
I'm still trying to get the demo going - I can get out on the track, but whenever I go to settings, although I am able to adjust several settings, it won't let me save any of the changes at all. When I try, the screen goes black for 30-60 seconds and then I'm right back on the settings page every time. I am forced to go back (to the practice session) and ditch the changes. I'm running windows XP on a Dell GX280. Is this a standard limitation of the demo? Or does it point to compatibility issues with my hardware?
Many thanks in advance!

Are there/will there be any cadet class options available, please? Do any existing adult kart options include a centrifugal clutch? It would be great to practice with settings as close as possible to the Honda cadet gx160.
Many thanks!
