are the lag bumps during the race a common thing in Pcars?
I cannot count how many times I had to try (and fail) to stop my car from spinning or crashing or going off track in a corner...

The only lag bump I had was when pubs joined in quali
 
So I've been thinking maybe someone with more stable internet should host the rooms Saturday's. My internet sucks and may be the cause of our DCs
 
It's been too quiet in here lately. I'll have a highlight video finished tomorrow. This is my first time on share factory or making a video period so it took a little bit to get it all sorted out but hopefully you guys enjoy it. I'll be getting a couple pics for everyone as well in the next few days.

Also there will be an announcement on availible positions and changing positions for the series behind the scenes crew shortly.

Looking forward to seeing some of you this weekend at the Bugatti circuit.

Sorry about not doing highlights. I will do that next time.
 
@brntguy could pull off some videos if there were anyone I would rrreereeeeaaalllyyy like to recruit. Could be interesting to see what he's been up to as of late.

Hello brnt. :cool:
 
Hey Zii, been playing Forza of late but still haunt the ps3 and ps4. Something I can help with?
Well if you would be interested in Saturday's you're always welcome.
I was reliving some RCS videos and you were always really good at finding the action in the race. That's my biggest issue with makin Pcars videos. Issue is its not like gt6 when it comes to sharing replays so in order to make a video from it you have to complete the race. :banghead: Wouldn't be so bad if there weren't dcs.

Either way it's nice to hear from you.
 
I've never made a video myself so I'm not sure how you go about it, but I think pCars Dash works when viewing replays in the game. The track map could help you find the action. I might try to figure it out soon, just need to learn how the share button works first.:boggled:

I've been tapping it twice to start the video and then twice again to stop recording.
 
Well it was an exciting first round for me! Sorry this is late but I've been itching to find a chance to debrief. Almost didn't make it, silly me forgot you guys aren't daylight savings anymore so thought I still had another hour up my sleeve. Got there in the end, just with 5mins to go in qualifying so bit the bullet and started last just so I could be settled into the rig and ready for the race with just a couple sighting laps.

The race was interesting for my first 90min solo in a while now, was a lot of fun to have a proper endurance race solo with project cars being a lot more strategic than GT6 is.
Started off in last with a calm start to just try keep with the leading field, initially making up a few positions in the opening laps with some people making mistakes. Catching upto @Zii1993 12 laps in, who was fairly even pace with me a large gap at first but something must've happened and was following him before another error going off a little wide, but he still hung right onto me until he pitted.

@JoeW was right on pace with me also so was hard to catch (and lose at the end), had you not pitted twice you probably would've been ahead till the end dude lol. Made a few mistakes towards the end, you making some huge ground on me at one point to 10 seconds but pulled a bit more again at the end.
Reaching 3rd after he first pitted quarter way, @Fallen_log was a good 30 seconds ahead and even pace as well, unfortunately for you mate you had the issue with your wheel, sucks but I hope it's sorted now. Not sure what strategy you had for pits.

I pitted lap 30 with my tyres half worn left side. Rushing to get into the race I had no plan for a strategy so just winged a 1 stopper knowing I had fairly good tyre wear and could hold consistent pace through wear. The unknown for me was how much fuel to have not knowing how many laps the GT class would end up running in the end and not the total. I think I took maybe 30ish litres too much so that cost me a lot more time.
From there on I was trying to chase down @TheFilapino but you were just so damn consistent and even pace with me as well, loving the competition. 30 seconds was a lot of time to try and pull lol, it was a little see-saw but a great victory in the end, congratulations. I got a lucky 2nd I think this time, I'm looking foward to everyone being a little more on the ball with strategy and consistency the next go round, will be close!

Having the 2 classes was a lot of fun, a couple awkward moments with the P2 field but no contact was made so all was well (a blind spot indicator would be nice lol), surprisingly only 5 laps ahead in the end. Well done @DaBomb330 !
I'm sorry to see those who disconnected or had wheel issues, I know the feeling after a lot of prep and what not, I hope that can be the last for everyone! I'm glad to see points awarded for those who perished.
 
Yeah later in the race when you were ahead I was driving a little over my head trying to close the gap before the race ended. Every time I would gain a couple of seconds and give myself hope of catching you, I would make a big mistake and lose 5 more seconds :)

Filapino was within 5 seconds of me almost the entire first quarter of the race until I crashed. So that pissed me off. There was a point about midway after I pit and after he pit where he was behind me again and we were chasing someone else but I started making little mistakes and he got around me and started pulling away.

I was just a little out of sorts once I realized I was the only one pitting twice and my lap times weren't fast enough to give the advantage I needed for two stops.

Next race should be fun.
 
Anybody practicing today/tonight? I'd like to run some laps for fun with fellow SNAILS, but WRC combos aren't set yet.
 
I'm doing a bit of career mode (F1 at Spa...) and will go further south to Le Mans after dinner. If anyone opens a room, hit me up.

I'll be on in about 45-60 mins gonna watch a show with the wife and medicate. But guys you can't let me stay on too long. I've got to finish that video, the spotters guide,and update some OP info.

And of coarse work on the new app. It's gonna be a much better running system than the current one.

@Fallen_log weather for tonight's practice session?

Also is there anyone with very dependable internet that might be able to host? It's come to my attention that my internet cannot host rooms. We end up with some drifting lag that just won't cut it for a 90 min race.
 
My internet is very good, but as it's far away from everyone, I don't think it would be a wise bet as host, unless as a last resort.

So I've been trying to get to some good lapping sections of the replay but it keeps freezing the game and messing up and I can't get pass the 30 min mark so this is what I ended up with. Sorry it's short and I didn't get much video but the night time and lmps headlights not on in the replay for some reason made it hard to find good views.

 
I make that Merc look FAST! :) hehe.

I really wish they'd fix the headlight issue. It's pretty much complete BS that there are still major issues with some of the games' basic features. I can tell you one thing, I won't upgrade WRC to a future Project CARS title unless the features the series needs work properly.
