Cool, joined up! I can't seem to find the practice server though, is it just a case of searching "RACEDEPARTMENT.COM EU GT3 PRACTICE #12? That didn't seem to come up with any results :S

If you search for "racedepartment", you should find it:

Wow, that launcher looks completely different to mine.

Is this AC Blancpain?

Sorry, I'm a total noob at this!

It's Content Manager! Heartily recommended, and the base version is free, though I would also recommend supporting the developer and buying the full key.

I think that @Haris Naim also signed up, @Chris Down . The free slots are almost gone so I thought I'd better mention it.... Really great to have so much (new) drivers for this event!

I was actually waiting for him to sign up -- I only see him mentioning wanting to go on the practice server. @Haris Naim, if you want to sign up, please just let me know which car you want

Sorry I have to leave this one @Chris Down , I've a full weekend of decorating just been laid on me

Great to see the huge entry list though! ... and if someone could put a replay up I'd appreciate it.

Sad to hear that man. We need pictures of your decorating exploits as penance ;-)

I think I do yes, I already have the DLC and I dumped the track in the relevant folder

Be sure to take the new OSWR. I Though I had it installed, but I kept getting an error. Did you dowloaded the link Chris provided, or it was downloaded prior?

If it was installed correctly, there should be a folder called "monza_osrw" in ac/content/tracks/monza

it should be mentioned that the full key is: pay what you want. but after 3 clicks and 2 settings you would not want to go back

I know. I had an osrw mod isntalled, but I kept getting the error: Chuckum error or something. Then I;ve downloded your version and it worked.

Quick question: do you see like a white splash far ahead, especially on the back straight, right on top of the asphalt? Is it from CSP or Sol?

Hmm, I don't use CSP/Sol, so not sure, but CSP in particular pretty fundamentally alter how the game renders scenes, so it wouldn't surprise me.

I noticed it, I assumed it had to be a somewhat lo-res asphalt heat effect from CSP, though don't quote me on that.

@Chris Down In, with a 488. With such a populated grid, this should be a very fun race. However, I wonder if my pc can handle this; I will see how it goes during qualifying, if I get too many stutters/freezes I will leave the server.

Hey, yeah you know what f'it I'm down for the race. Z4 GT3 please!

Please excuse my driving and track etiquette - This will literally be my first *proper* race online!

The track is sorted, I didn't dump it into the folder properly duhhhh. I can see it in the new launcher that @dovbadiin linked to.
