Tried the Aston dbr1-2 at Le Mans last night after another eternity messing with the global ffb. Everything feels good apart from very stiff steering at top speed. Is this how the cars behave irl or do i need to tweek some more?

Cars with aero will have more grip at high speed because of the downforce. I've never driven a race car so I don't know how much you would feel it through the steering wheel in real life.

 

[alegunner68]

Yeah that makes sense. Sorry for the off topic

 

[Elitekilla29]

Hopefully i can still make this race. It's like you guys always host these when im about to eat dinner

[Spooky Wooky]

Car didn't move off the line, couldn't back out or retire or anything. Sorry to whoever got stuck behind me on the grid and anyone who was affected by shutting the game down.

Thanks to @HammyMansell for hosting tonight and @Zakspeed_TV for sharing his tune.

 

[HammyMansell]

Thanks everyone here at CRAP for taking part in the race today, @Bjorn Lucas @DropBuckets @Daniel Sharp @ty2 @alegunner68 @Spooky Wooky, and to @Zakspeed_TV and his fellow aliens for joining us! 👍👍

A shame i got a disconnect after 11 laps, and the glitches that affected @Spooky Wooky, and many others on the start line and on the first lap, a pity.

I hope we can have another race soon @Zakspeed_TV....I have a good combo in mind, how about the Aston Martin GTE's at Donington GP....You up for it?

Cheers mate again!

Thanks to @HammyMansell for letting me join in the fun today and @Zakspeed_TV for introducing me to your group. A shame this game has so many bugs but a fun race nonetheless. Cheers fellows.

I was abducted and sad I couldn't make it yesterday. They probed me!


Friday, I will host a open room of fun starting around 830-9BST/ 330 EST US. Is there anytime changes I need to know about for the UK?

Also, how do you move the displays like laps times around on your screen to customize it?

 

[Eyeseeh50]

Looks like there has been some great racing going on while I have been busy at work and off on me hols.

The PS4 saga continues and as of today it is on its way back to Sony for repair or replacement. Not sure how long it will take but cant wait to be back on and racing with you guys.

Good stuff Football i'll be there later today for some fun!

They probed you? Are you able to walk today therefore? It sounds like the Alabama 'trick' all over again! Haha!

Yes buddy, the time goes back 1 hour on Sunday morning to GMT. Therefore the time difference to you will then be 4 hours, not 5. 👍 I hope i explained that clearly.... Lol!

To edit the HUD, if i remember correctly, i think you can do it whilst in the pits. There's an option to 'edit HUD', if you go into that, you can then change the HUD positions accordingly. I'll check later to confirm this.

See you later today mate!

I was waiting for invite but most of you were showing as playing single player.So thought I had the wrong time. I wonder if this is something to do with the connection problems?

 

[Football67611]

It will say people are playing single player even if they are in a multiplayer lobby, I have been tricked by that before. I usually first look at who's in a party and then go from there.

 

[JohnScoonsBeard]

Connection configuration can be the cause of many disconnections.

Everyone in CRAP pCARS should have a look at the link below. Some of you may have already done some or all of this.

I'm not saying there's anything wrong with anyone's connection. However there are things we can all do to improve how our routers/connections are set up.

1 - Connect your Playstation direct to the router by cable.

2 - What is your ISP's (Internet Service Provider) quoted down and upload speed. Compare that with what the PS4 gets in the Network Connection test. Run this a few times to get an average. Results are probably more accurate if run from a PC connected by cable to the router. Also do a ping test using a PC. How well your network performs in a ping test has a large impact on latency (lag).

Lag from one lobby member can cause lag for everybody in the race.

http://portforward.com/help/project-cars/

Read and follow the link to the PS4 section. From there you can choose your router and get advice on how to make improvements to it's setup.

I've added your psn ID: Storm--Trooper- to the psn chat group. You can just reply to that group by sending a message on there asking for an invite (or announcing you've opened a room). It can get busy at race time but you don't have to read every message.

If anyone wants adding to the group let us know on here.

Elite, I've added you to the notification/chat group. If the volume gets too much you can delete the thread and you'll no longer get the messages. It's got most of our regular members on it.

 

[HammyMansell]

@Spooky Wooky i don't think i'll be online for your event this evening as i'm busy, but i'll be online this afternoon at about 4pm BST for anyone that wants to have a race or 2!! Hope to see a few of you CRAPpers then!!

Thanks!
