I would be happy to drive Z4, but I need a 'Super Sub' for my team too Sad

That brings a question up.

If a driver from another privateer driver joins a GT3 team from a GT4 privateer, would the GT4 driver still get points for their privateer entry?

by Fazed Intro Wed 15 Jul 2015 - 23:32

[Would we points from each class (doing Stint1 in GT3 & 2 in GT4) or would we have to race both stints in one class?

im sure you cannot sign to another team once you have entered a race during that season, the term super sub would mean to bring someone who isnt signed or hasnt done a race yet. if your in a team and your other driver cannot make it you can do the 2x 1:30hr stints on your own.

I've nearly had it with this game.

So I normally race with TCS on and in qualifying tonight, it was definitely not on. I couldn't turn it on, no matter what I tried. I hard reset my xbox, defaulted the room settingsI could run offline and TCS was fine but not in multiplayer.

Anyone else in the Ginetta GT4 experience this issue?

I'm sick and tired of dealing with this crap. Calling this game "complete" is an utter joke, and calling this game disappointing is far too nice.

With other cars on track at Silverstone, my game take a huge hit on frame rate. It was difficult to put the time in that I did during qualifying. I tried to do a practice weekend against AI. My lap times are regularly 2:02 to 2:03. With 31 AI, no damage, and no problems navigating the track, the game was giving me anywhere between 2:12 and 2:18, and that was in practice. I didn't even try to race.

Bumping this because there was no response. I tested with the Aston GT4 and TCS works fine. Anyone else in the Ginetta GT4 experiencing this same issue?

Can everyone make sure they download the new update (2.0) beforehand. Could cause conflicts if we all have different versions. And make sure you do a hard reset after you've downloaded it.

Specific thread in marshals area for this.
Laps covered as mentioned in the OP.

I am a little confused on how the end race results will be determined. It seems this is the old method used in TORA GT series before it got changed when it was realized that it was "unfair" in certain situations.

I get that after each stint the laps done and positions will be determined, but there is no time collected, 1st place could of been a whole minute in front of 2nd place, but at the beginning of stint 2 it will be run as if he was right behind him. Unless i'm missing something?

Another problem I can see when implementing the cool down lap is that the 1st place GT3 driver will have to let GT4 drivers know when he has completed his set laps, how will this be the case when they are separate party chat?

We're going to release a tutorial so everyone understands how it will all work. We're also using a more precise endurance method that was very successful on FM5.

It is however going to be split up by class:lol!: , meaning lobbies of all GT3 and lobbies of all GT4. We also have a procedure for anyone who goes a lap or more down, to keep things accurate.

If you want a look before the tutoeial go to the Pro GT section in the archives. It's a modified version of that. Smile

by LMR TopSecret Fri 17 Jul 2015 - 23:56

either way you can only have 8 people in a party so it would be an 8 man lobby? theres no way your going to lap people in the same class in the same lobby unless there is a crash so its going to be a boring hour and half race.

Martini believes you can get 32 people into a party but he's being ridiculous
