PC2 Project Cars 2 Racing Club (merged)

Bram Hengeveld · May 7, 2015

Welcome to RaceDepartment's Racing Club for Project CARS! Project CARS can be played on various platforms: PC, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One and we'd like to facilitate and encourage our members to post challenging casual events for members by members.

Platform Prefixes
We now use Prefixes (which you will be required to select when creating a new race (thread).

Setting up a race
First of all start with a plan. Post a thread not at the final moment before you want to race but open it a couple of days in advance. Official RD events are always scheduled a week in advance for the highest change on success.

Secondly order your threads properly and try to make it as simple as possible. Not everybody wants to read a wall of text with requirements. Keep it simple, easy and friend.

You are totally correct @Danny

18:00 GMT / 19:00 BST / 20:00 is all the same. We use GMT as that timezone never changes and people can calculate their timezone pretty easy from it.

Sounds good! Can't wait

guys is there a way to see tire wear??

Frederic Schornstein · May 10, 2015

Tried two onlince races, both times pCars crasehd when switching sessions

Radley Croft · May 10, 2015

I'm signed up for the event, but I too seem to be experiencing crashes when progressing from one session to the next - black screen. The game doesn't respond and I subsequently receive an error message. We'll see how it goes. If I suddenly vanish after, say, practice, that's why. I'll do my best to rejoin if that happens.

Frederic Schornstein · May 10, 2015

Yeah, just had my third try and it crashed during the session. Offline I have no issues, but in MP it crashes constantly. I will do a reboot later and give it another try, but not very satisfying for game with "gold" status...

I am new to teamspeak, can anybody link to instructions for how it works?

zAmboni · May 10, 2015

If a slot opens up I take it. I'll keep an eye out to see if anyone else drops.

I found out, that using 32Bit mode can solve the problem. Just did a race and it worked for me:

Make sure your steam overlay is disabled

John Addison · May 10, 2015

I can't even find the lobby?

ajokay · May 10, 2015

Is anyone planning on pitting? I've worked out that my GT3 Ginetta can carry enough fuel for the race, but I have no idea about tyre wear. As this is a stress test would you like us to be pitting @Bram Hengeveld to check that works ok online too?

Radley Croft · May 10, 2015

Nor can I. I'd wager it isn't up, then. Technical difficulties?

Fieldy · May 10, 2015

Sign me out pls

SnappyDEe · May 10, 2015

Sorry guys, I'm out. It's Mother's Day here in the States. I have family over and I have to admit that my wife deserves a special day. She is the best wife anyone could ever ask for. Have a great race.

Please post up info about how it went. Will there be any video of this? Or a broadcast?

Radley Croft · May 10, 2015

Is the server up and running? Because I've been trying to find it for the past 30 minutes and nothing comes up.

John Addison · May 10, 2015

I been trying to no luck. Im out. Try the one Monday.

Pär Öqvist · May 10, 2015

Is the server full? Could join in a McLaren12c or what it´s called otherwise

zAmboni · May 10, 2015

I'll take Martin's Ginetta if possible

Bram Hengeveld · May 10, 2015

Come on guys! We start in 20 minutes from now and as posted before the server will be up by then.

This last minute sign out stuff we don't accept. If you sign up for something you make sure you be there at the right time and don't sign out 20 minutes before the start!
