[Ron Attwood]

Stuart, does your Cadwell have this line in the GDB file?

[TRACKVARS]
RoadDryGrip=1.00

If it has RoadDryGrip=1.18 then the grip levels are way too high and cause you to roll rather than slide.

Thought I'd mention it.

 

[Stuart Thomson]

Hmmm - yes it does.

Off to research.

 

[Stuart Thomson]

So this now gives up the following dilemma - if we alter it for this race, then it's going to affect every mod in rfactor, and we'll need a new download.

I'm speaking to the rFactor staff now.

 

[Ron Attwood]

It's a well known 'ricket'. Whether the original track maker made a typo that has perpetuated I know not. As an exercise, check the .gdb file of any track and unless I'm mistaken 1.00 is the norm and a lesser number would be for wet tracks/grass.

 

[Stuart Thomson]

Not well known enough, clearly. By me, anyway.

I'm going to put up a download on RD with the fixed gdb later on today, but thanks for the offer.

 

[Stuart Thomson]

All - please download and install this file : Cadwell grip fix

We will be using this gdb file for Friday's race.

Thanks in advance - and of course any questions, come back to me.

 

[Paul Wright]

[Ron Attwood]

Me too please.

 

[Hans Sneep]

I am now all most 3 sec slower after the change (I think I put it back) lol

 

[Stuart Thomson]

Version 1.3 of the skinpack is now available and will be used from this event on.

Download here

i'm afraid i'm going to possibly have to withdraw from this event (three sorry words... 'unrecoverable boot volume') so i'll be reformatting a new hd tonight and trying to build everything back up, but the chances of getting the wheel back on and the caterhams in and getting some useful practice in beforehand are very slim. I'll do what i can and if i'm in the server for 6pm tomorrow i'll hang around ..... fingers crossed

cheers....Paul
