Guys,

I have setup the server, but you can't join it at this moment. There is a special install instruction for it, which I shall post a bit later on. I tested the server, and all works fine. We will have this event saturday!!!

{edit}
Download and install instructions.

Download these 3 files:
1 - Track Snetterton
2 - Vehicle overview (Classic F2 cars)
3 - The mod file.

Put them in the package folder of your rfactor install, and open the mod manager (start rfactor launcher, and select MANAGE MODS)
You should have a "problem mod" mentioned, Racedepartment club racing. No fear, this is ok
Via OPTIONS, UNtick the box befor Show Mods Only
You should see the 2 first files in the list now, with status NOT installed. Click on them, and select install for both.
Go to the OPTIONS again, and select Show Mods Only.
Now, the racedepartment mod should be in the normal list, and not in the problem mods.
Install that mod as well.

Now open rfactor multiplayer, and try to enter the server RACEDEPARTMENT F2. Pass is the regular clubracing pass.

Please remember that this is the first time we are doing this, so you guys are sort of the testers We have tested this setup in staff already, so we know it works fine, but you never know. If there is something wrong, please let me know in a decent way, and I will look into this. It's something new for me as well, so I have to learn a lot as well . I am sure the future events will be less in size, and hopefully more easy to install.

Jim

Yes, it is updated to the new build. I have add you on the signup list ok?

@All
Please install the update for build 60! The server is updated as well, and if you do not install it, you have:

- Less graphical performance
- A server / client mismatch.

I'd like to join if I am able.... I can't seem to download the 3 files from rapidshare, they keep stalling.... is there any where else I can get them from?

 

[Scott Webber]

man Rapidshare is so slow, could have picked a better host Marco, mediafire is alot better if i can't get these downloaded in the next 3 hours then im signing out. Ghrr

Sorry Scott.. I rarely used my rapidshare account, but with the closure of megaupload, I had no other option available.

In the future, ISI is looking to get a peer to peer function in it, so you can download mod's directly from the server that hosts the, That should make it better. Let me know if you managed to get the files, otherwise I shall up them to another file hoster. By the way, there was a reason behind me sending a PM to all who where initially registered Scott This was one of them

I am not 100% sure about the version of Snetterton. I am sure I can't manage to repackage the mod, with the update if it was released. Anyway, to run the game, you need the 3 files mentioned above. That way, you always have the right version.

 

[MrPix]

I've created a torrent file with all 3 files if anyone still needs them... I'll seed until later tonight at least prior to the race:

http://mrpix.org/torrents/RD_F2_Snett_Sep.torrent

Please let me know if this is working... if so... woohoo... I've learnt a new trick!

EDIT: Has anyone got a setup for tonight that they are willing to share please?

 

[Scott Webber]

i've been ill all week marco so i haven't had much time to do anything, but im downloading the last file now, cheers.

by the way you don't need a account at mediafire
