iRacing system in netKar PRO, beta test started

Yes, we will maybe changing all names. (safety rating, nk rating, etc...)

Race craft sounds a lot better

How about kudos for nk rating?

I feel in order to still distance your system from Iracing's system is to base the "nkrating" per car or class of cars with maybe a overall rating.

Not every body wants to drive open wheels or tintops ( Osella included in the tintops). Or is as good in one class as the other.

I used to drive the sk modified in Iracing and built up my irating with this car so when I moved to the late model and ran high ir races in the late model I was out classed and my ir took a beating, so I stopped racing the late model.

Like MSR (Metropolis Street Racer (aka the original Project Gotham Racing)).

I really liked this game at the time

Plus it only one letter different than Kunos!

I like it, those two are more original.

We need ask premission use the scrach made and converted track? We would like use mugello and other in nkworld.

no problems at all! You can use them all.

thanks you very much.

We need check all track before use
not approwed:
- easy to cut (example: snetteton last right-left turn)
- quality check
- we can't use dvd checked track (gtl, gtr2), because some people not have a dvd and they have a handicap, because can't race some rounds.

lots of work check the track.

I thx again the premission.

Brilliant 8)

Mugello short track working? We would like use in the lower category championship.

It should. Just do a quick test anyway.

I can no longer put me on the netKar Pro rank, it tells me that a new version is up, am I alone in having this problem? or is it general or may have and download the latest version? that update is available on the 1.03 and it is that I have

sorry I misspoke, I mean "unable to open" a server, the connection to a server already connected to the rank remains possible

I just had Gerard Nijkamp online same problem for him, are unable to put the server on Rank, try your hand you will see !!

we are going definitely off topic here.
In any case, Jaap announced already that he was going to do some changes on the rank website. It will be related to that.

guys, does anyone want to do some testing?
Just register to some race. see you on track

race at 23.40 at nkworld? abarth prato

Definitely need more servers to speed things along. Its midnight now and not a race until 10 to 1

Yes, we solving the problem. On this weekend or next monday staring the I. Beta Season. (now i make a schedule)
This is the race timetable:
http://nkworld.net/seasons/i_beta_season/timetable.html
Qualifing starts every hours or half past every hours.
Practice servers 0-24

Lazlo me and GerandNijkamp did a race I was in the lead on last lap but went off and Gerand finnished first but nkp said we both won it?
Heres the result from the site.

1	paul thomas	6:11.539		5	1:11.196	0:24.435	3	1	0	2.82 (+0.02)	1503 (+30)	20
2	Gerard Nijkamp	+ 0:03.641	+ 0:03.641	5	1:11.223	0:24.393	3	3	0	2.5 (-0.04)	1500 (-30)	0

If possible can u alter the results manually? I didnt deserve the win!

Thanks

At the moment, for me the main problem of this method is that you need to follow the system. After each race, you need to go back on the website to register for the next one. At the end you are more time out of the track than inside.

I think instead that the system should follow you!
This should be for me the correct behavior:
1) the user register for the first upcoming race. For example the next race in 500 Abarth in 6 minutes.
2) the user join the server and complete his race.
3) the next race session (same track/same car) will start, and the users currently on track will be automatically enrolled for the next race.
4) when the user disconnect from the server, he will be automatically removed from the next races.

This should help having more people on track.
What do you think about it?

The only problem I see is that you will have timing issues not everybody will finish on the same lap. Taking x amount of time + y time to restart the race. Making it difficult for people joining in time for the next race. x will be random + y. If Kudos is at stake you don't want to join the race half a lap to a lap down!

Im not 100% sure about this but the server will have to go down so the server logs can be read.

Maybe have two races per session and only let people join b4 the first race.
Also it may help to password protect the server with the session id of the race as the password.

A better solution is to have 4 say qualifing servers and 1 race server per car. It just need all the nkp groups to get together on this!

When nkworld becomes more popular several servers per car will be needed to handle the differant splits.

This will require a lot of servers so diff car will have to run on different days.

sorry for the OFF TOPIC. Just to reply to Laurent.

I spoke to Jaap this morning about the problem.

he wrote on gpc:

I received a few reports from people who have problems with the nKPro Rank. This is correct. The webhosting provider upgraded their IT systems and this caused incompatibility with the nKPro Rank system. I'm working on it. It could take a few days to work it out.
