Hi, can someone please advise how to get the "wheel" or "sixaxis" icon up in the WRS leaderboard ??

I'm currently showing N/A and cant figure it out.

Thanks.

 

[ASH32]

[GTP Barrie]

Tell me about it, its a very slippery car to drive and the track isnt the easiest for this car....!

Those splits were with pretty much default car settings!

Havent tried the other car yet.

Copy mine, DFGT is a type of wheel. DS3 is the controller. PAL is the region your disc is from (yours is PAL).

i do not think it is possible to put up results of both cars, i think you need to stick to one, if i am not mistaken...

 

[GTP Barrie]

yep you could be right, i just assumed that more BHP would result in getting round quicker, however more BHP = goodbye rearend of car LOL!

Thanks NINEHUNDRES 👍 and ASH 👍,

i'll check the leaderboard at 1pm to see if i get the SIXAXIS symbol appear.

ive updated my signature with DS3 controller and WRS leaderboard still isnt showing it, should i post my splits again ??? can anyone adivse please, thanks

also my profile picture isnt displaying??? any advice more than welcome

 

[Usual Suspect]

Tried the 787B and loved it´s insane speed but it would be like week 31 with the Mercedes Sauber, to much frustration

So i went to the RX7 and it´s a lot smother ride, and can make 20 laps stints without restarting all the time.

After break in, some splits with Kevin´s tune (with some minor tweaks)

T1: 20.883
T2: 19.339
T3: 16.724

Saw a .6 at T3 but crashed, i´m like Jonas:

If I could make one request to PD it would be for an option to completely turn off on-screen splits (...). Sector splits ruin more laps for me than any corner in the game.

Welcome to GTP and the WRS. Before worrying about your signature and profile pic, if we can please get your help with a couple of things.

First, please don't double post. That means if you have made a post and want to add something before another use has posted, please just use the edit button. You had 3 sets of double posts in here, I've cleaned them up by merging each.

Second, please review our AUP, and pay particular attention to the second point. We expect decent grammar. That doesn't mean it needs to be perfect, but you need to pur capitals at the start of sentences and punctuation at the end of them. And when referring to yourself, use 'I', not 'i'.

As far as your profile updates are concerned, click "My GTPlanet" at the top right, and then on the left column you'll have several options to choose from. Choose "Edit Signature", enter the details you'd like to display, and then be sure to click "Save Signature" when complete.

If by Profile Pic you mean the picture that shows next to your posts, that's your Avatar, and you need to click "Edit Avatar" in the same section and follow the instructions.

Hope that helps.

EDIT : I see both your signature and profile pic on your profile, and the signature is also showing up in the forums now. Sometimes there's a small lag in those types of updates.

I wish that I could get rid of the pesty Ghost! It messes any chance for better splits, I'm always behind it.

Press up on the D pad. That's default, if you've remapped your buttons, you can map a different button to mke it go away. Tht one is convenient, as you can toggle the ghost on the straights to see where you stand.

 

[GTP Barrie]

Hello EDK, appologies and i will now conform to AUP.

I still can not see the controller in the leaderboard, can you advise please.

That doesn't work on my T500rs for some reason.

Try posting your splits again.

The Fetchbot grabs the Sig data to put it on the board, but you have not updated your splits since updating your Sig, so your controller has not been added.

I tried forcing it in the background, but this particular update will require the user (you) to post new splits.

Possibly because you remapped the buttons to use them for the RA Functions?

In the button mapping screen, one of the selection for mapping should be titled "Ghost".

You don't have to map the up D pad to that, but it should be something easy to reach so it's handy to toggle.

You're right, got it cleared up now, thank's.

Found some good speed on this rather quickly. Still no oversteer unless I force it though.

T2: 19.265
T3: 16.538

T1: 20.742
T2: 19.241

[toymdngn]

Getting faster and much smoother, though I'm still getting a little wag from the rear end on a couple of corner exits. I'm not using up near enough real estate to be competitive, but I'm hoping to have a better grasp on this track by the end of the week.

Looking at different set ups for the suspension on the rx7 tc, one thing that seems odd to me is the ride height. I could be mistaken but it seems to read that the front of the car is set all the way high and the rear is set all the way low. Is this right? I always thought the front of the car should be lower than the rear.

GT5's suspension settings are reverse.

 

[Since80three]

Wowww. Is it for all catagories in the suspension area or just ride height? Don't tell me I've been running my car with reverse set ups this whole time lol.

 

[Cats_PJs]

Finally found a setup I can deal with.

Keep on tryin'. Sector by sector, eventually you will end up setting a fast time. good luck

 

[Gravitron]

Shaved 0.375s off my RX-7 time, mostly in T4. Meant to try Biffy's tune above, but maybe next time. 👍
