Now that we have a PP system are you going to set weight penalties for the next race?

 

[Jav]

And Jav, are you sure you want to? Just want to make sure thats your final decision.

Are you going to be using a PP limitation?

 

[Danisfast]

I know that I've already missed round one and I'm not very good at GT, but even so, I'd rather like to take part in this; it sounds really fun!

Anyway, if you'll accept this:

PSN: Danisfast
Car: EPSON Honda NSX '06

This car appears, statistically, to be slower than the other Hondas. Will I be able to run 50kgs lighter (as is the difference if, of course, I can run at all!)?

I'm definately considering putting in the weight penalties for the next round. PP is something I plan on testing out this weekend as I want to get familiar with how that works before I implement it.

I'll try to equalize the performance with the others. Preferably, I want them to be as balanced as possible so that such a disadvantage doesn't hamper you.

RACECAR you get the video rendered?

I finally got it rendered. I unfortunately had to render the video without the commentary and track map as it seem to bog down my Compaq when added with all the recorded segments of the replay, but its done. I'll post a link up with the video and get your opinions on it before posting it on youtube.

Edit: Looks like my video was too big to upload to either photobucket or Mediafire so here it is:

This isn't final since it doesn't have the commentary and track map, but this is the first video using the Overlays.

 

[Silver-Sylph]

I liked it a lot. You put a ton of effort into this.👍👍👍👍

 

[SuperShouden]

Awesome. Lots of good battles. A suggestion, though: maybe you should use white for Josh's name and number. Black is a little hard to read against the dark purple background. Other than that, pretty sweet. Can't wait to see the rest of it with commentary and everything. Good job!

Thanks. I can see Josh's name just fine on my end but if everyone else has that problem, then I'll definately fix that issue.

So the full video will be up Sunday. I have a teaser for both the series and Rd1 coming tomarrow.

 

[SuperShouden]

Can't wait.

 

[Jav]

[Jav]

Nice edit!!

 

[The_Boyce]

Just seen the teaser. You've done a good job. Love the battles for positions.

 

[RACECAR]

Weight penaties have been set. Check the first post.

 

[The_Boyce]

Anyone on today for a bit of practice tokyo style?

 

[Silver-Sylph]

How much weight exactly do we have to put on?

 

[RACECAR]

How much weight exactly do we have to put on?

Depending on where you finished in your class, it'll work like this:

1st +5%
2nd +3%
3rd +1%
4th - 6th 0%
7th & 8th -1%
9th & 10th -2%
Lower -3%

So as the winners of our respective classes, Lancer and I will carry the maximum +5 in weight ballast.

 

[Silver-Sylph]

So would I put the weight to 6/200 or 3/200?

Ok, so are the results from race 1 on the first post? I not to sure but I think I got 3 on race 1 wich means I'm at +1%.
Another thing, how are we going to enforce this system?

 

[SuperShouden]

How do we remove weight?

 

[Silver-Sylph]

You can't remove weight at all.

 

[SuperShouden]

I know. That's why I asked.

 

[RACECAR]

After playing around with the new Weight Ballist system myself, I will have to amend the weight penalties abit. If you are already at stock weight, you can't remove it as you could in GT4. So any of the finishing positions where you get weight taken off will only apply to cars which had weight added previously.

So would I put the weight to 6/200 or 3/200?

You should have it set like this:

Ballist Amount (kg): 3

Ok, so are the results from race 1 on the first post? I not to sure but I think I got 3 on race 1 wich means I'm at +1%.

You got third so you should get +1 added. As for the results, they are about to be posted.

 

[SuperShouden]

Okay. So, would one continue to add weight to his car or would he just stick at 5% maximum until comes in at a lower position?

That I'm still trying to work out the kinks on. I'm either thinking to go with the way it worked the last few seasons or have done like this:

According to each race’s result, racing car’s performance will be adjusted (demoted accordingly). Demotion of performance will be conducted by means of loading handicap weights. The series points attained by the driver of each car will be linked to the loading of designated handicap weight at each event. The handicap weight will be taken in a 1kg basis.

•Between 2nd - 6th rounds: 2kg will be loaded on the car as handicap weight, for every 1 series point attained by the driver in the former rounds.

•Between 7th – 8th rounds: 1kg will be loaded on the car as handicap weight, for every 1 series point attained by the driver in the former rounds.

9th round: Withdrawal of handicap weight. (No handicap weights on board)

Hopefully, I'll have it figured out by tomarrow.

My mistake on those, I keep forgetting not every month is 31 days so I'll correct them.
