4th is fine by me, but I made several mistakes...


Hey Fubbles,

You had very bad lag in last nights race that affected other drivers, unfortunately this happens to most of us but can be controlled by following some simple guide lines ...

To enjoy more stable online racing, connect your PlayStation®3 system directly to your broadband modem, instead of connecting it through a router. (Depending on your connection type, your broadband modem may be referred to as a "DSL Modem", "FTTH Modem" or "ONU".)

Please note that if you are connecting your PlayStation®3 system directly to your modem, you will first need to set up PPPoE. To set up PPPoE, select "Settings" from the PlayStation®3 system's XMB™, then select "Network Settings" -> "Internet Connection Settings" -> "Custom" -> "IP Address Settings". If you do not know your PPPoE user name or password, please contact your ISP.

When your PlayStation®3 system is connected directly to your broadband modem, you will not be able to use your PC or other network devices while you are taking part in online races. To use other network devices while racing online, please connect your PlayStation®3 system to the internet via a router. However, some router types and router settings will not allow you to take part in online races, and errors may occur.

Gran Turismo 6 allows you to connect your PlayStation®3 system to the internet either wirelessly or through a wired connection. However, for a more stable online racing experience, a wired connection is recommended.


If you are connecting to the internet through a router, you can create an environment that's suited to online play by activating UPnP. When activating UPnP, please be sure to set up UPnP on your router as well as activating it on your PlayStation®3 system.

For details on setting up UPnP on your router, please refer to your router's instruction manual, or contact your router's manufacturer.

UPnP is set up automatically on the PlayStation®3 system. To see your PlayStation®3 system's UPnP status, select "Settings" from the XMB™, followed by "Network Settings" -> "Settings and Connection Status List", then select the UPnP option. To adjust the UPnP setting manually, select "Network Settings" -> "Internet Connection Settings" -> "Custom", then select the UPnP option.

If you are not using UPnP, you will need to manually set up port forwarding. Please refer to the "About Port Forwarding" page for more details.

The port numbers for Gran Turismo 6's online racing are listed below. However, depending on your fellow players' network environments, other UDP ports may also be used.

TCP: 80, 443, 5223
UDP: 3478, 3479, 3658
Online play may be adversely affected if these ports are blocked by your router's firewall or by other means. In such cases, you will need to cancel LAN -> WAN (outward) packet filtering on your router.

If, even after performing the above step, you are still having trouble enjoying online races while connected through a router, please set your router so that it forwards the port number noted below to yourPlayStation®3 system. (To set up port forwarding, you may need to manually set the IP address on yourPlayStation®3 system. To do so, select "Network Settings" from your PlayStation®3 system's XMB™, then select "Internet Connection Settings" -> "Custom", and set "IP Address Settings" to "Manual").

UDP: 3658
For details on setting up port forwarding on your router, please refer to your router's instruction manual, or contact your router's manufacturer.

Depending on your router type, "port forwarding" may be referred to by another name, such as: "port mapping", "static masquerading", "port opening", "changing address settings" or "virtual server". Please refer to the section of your router's manual which deals with online gaming for more details.



Please read the below link and make sure you follow the recommended settings for your router/modem and related information.

I'll take care of this. I just need to get past this busy week first. Next week on wards I will have a little more time, I just didn't expect to get so swamped the past couple of weeks.
 
I'm doing all the things stated on that page


It was clear that from the type of lag that you, Widfo and fullgas displayed that someone was using your internet connection while you played. You simply can not have anyone browsing web pages or doing anything with your connection while you play. Also if you are running wireless, make sure it is passworded and if you can, check the devices connected and make sure nobody is on it without your knowledge.

It really effected my race early, I got stuck behind you, I was faster but you kept jumping at me. It was really distracting and every time I would close in I'd have to drop back costing significant time, or I'd be so distracted by the lag I'd start making mistakes.


Oh and guys, don't give up so easily! Both in the GT500 and in this race I've been last a long way behind but finished second. Just keep racing, others will make mistakes.

See you all on Monday night :cool:

something like this?
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1gFJNyg1qM4vlA86AGEC99HC3UJagLFOAVtu_Y7dk9P4/edit?usp=sharing
link to first page.....or just update after every race like you did just then.

Cheers, I thought it was all over after I touched the grass and span. You put me under pressure and it worked i guess.

Google docs is fine...

nas said he will cover this season but having a backup is a good idea.

My mind went wondering for a while when I had the lead and I lost control of the car and that was the beginning of the end for my race,and qualifying was a disaster as I overran the third corner just after the quali start and hit the barrier and had heavy damage and it took me ages to get back to the pits,by that time I had not much time left at all.

Good solid drive bud well done.:gtpflag:
 
I had a real great time,NOT! Was half way thru the bus stop when i got lag punted by somebody,making my car completely undriveable,but there was nobody around me at the time,which makes me think it was Badmf-1 cause i couldn't see him. I've tried adding him but can't because his privacy settings are set as such and despite messaging him both via the PSN & in the room for him to FR me,he just ignored them. The reason we have so much problems is because of things like this. For a room to be stable,ALL parties must be friends with each other,port forwarding set up with the CORRECT PSN ports,and running through the DMZ and connected with an ethernet cable,not wireless,the PS3 wireless is hopeless & causes lag as it is too slow. Just ONE person with a poorly setup connection can ruin the stability of a room,and multiple poorly connected people will really screw things up,even though they seem to be stable,as it's not only about their data. The issues are created when data from one person doesn't get passed on by another person,creating a break in the chain. I know i am not the cause as i have all the above-mentioned done,except for FR with Badmf-1,as i host for another league with 12 participants and have no issues whatsoever & i regularly race in european rooms with no issues,this and the GT500 series is the first time.
Considering the work that Ven & Nasanu put into this series, IMO it's should not be too hard for people to sort out their connections properly. If anyone is using Mobile Broadband(3G,4G),they will be the cause of 99% of the issues.
Basically i'm saying c'mon guys,get your internet & router setup properly,set a static IP address on your playstation & turn OFF the Media centre connectivity as it causes lag when turned on.
I'm not trying to single anybody out,Badmf-1 was only mentioned because he doesn't answer messages.I'm more than happy to help anyone that doesn't have any idea how to set a static IP,the DMZ & portforwarding.
I'll open a friends only room at about 6pm on friday to help anyone out that wants it.
The people with issues should know who they are,but if not you can tell by things like regular trouble entering rooms,regular dsc's and not being able to see people on track. You can also tell how good your connection is by how quickly you connect to the server & rooms. If the loading bar moves slowly across & you get a long view of the Synchronising network pop-up window,you'll probably have lag problems,not necessarily seeing others lagging but them seeing you lag. When i connect i barely get a chance to see the pop-up window,let alone notice the loading bar,it just goes bang,connected to server,bang,joining room,bang synchronising network,then to the white screen with the track logo,all in about 1 to 2 secs,so that should give people an idea of how quick it can/should be.

I won't be present at next race Indianapolis.

Sweet, helps me get a points lead before ascari and cape ring, both tracks I need a GPS to get around. Especially Ascari, I have never done a single lap around there without running off the track. All the corners look the same :(
