Unofficial OC3D Drivers Team chat

We could do that with a strawpoll or something. Problem is how do we categorize the cars?

Due to the current limited range I don't think it would be too difficult, just group similar stats.

Does anyone think an OC3D widget would be cool or just annoying?
For instance it would show the current speed, gear, throttle, brake using the OC3D logo?

I don't use any widgets in general because i like my game to look as much as in real life as possible, but if you don't fuck up the design i bet there would be an interest.

I use widgets for all sorts to monitor when qualifying and a limited set during the race. A gear counter is especially useful if it's not visible in the cockpit and you're using paddle shifters.

All I'm gonna need is my mirrors :p

Is there any way to set up a server with class/track/car limits..

There are far too many settings to consider for everyone, setups, realism, controllers...

Well i guess it's obvious that all kinds of driving aids have to be turned off. What's the fun of driving with driving aids.
And yes there is a way, most servers have car restrictions.

As far as I'm aware, no you can't enforce driver restrictions. Have a look at the AC server launcher.

I agree with you entirely, may as well be scalextric if you leave the aids on. The only aid I have on at the minute is minimum stability control, once I've mastered corners I won't need it anymore ;)

As soon as i got my wheel i turned everything off. When i was still driving with mouse and keyboard i used a bit of stability control because i couldn't control the throttle.

I'm still a little heavy footed (finger) when it comes to cornering, getting the ballance right between Entry-Apex-Exit still catches me out, I either end up with a sluggish get away or a tail happy apex.
 
Hey guys,

Just a quick assetto question but where is the hill climb track? So far i've only mucked about with my mates in practice and time attack and didn't see Trento Bondone, it is in the current release right? Is it reserved for a special mode?

It's awesome btw, 4 of my mates of mechanical/automotive/motorsport engineering are coming round for a lap battle later.

It's not in the build but there are several hill climb tracks. Just check the modding section of racedepartment.
 
Hey guys how about we start up a skype group for the drivers team? in particular for organising assetto corsa.

keep in mind skype allows you to turn off sound notifications for individual conversations, so message spam shouldnt be an issue for people in the chat.

It would be perfect for people like myself who dont exactly regular the forums.


I'm loving assetto corsa for its mods at the moment, theres a healthy community making some very nice mods, some professional 3d modellers even making free mods for it too.
 
Does a Steam group seem reasonable?

-edit-

Time for a new Hot lap setup that I'll keep up with. This time I think i'll just use the one track/car combo. Any suggestions?

Steam group requires you to join the chat for anyone to leave a message you can read. you leave chat whenever you close steam. its very easy to forget steam groups exist and ignore them, ect.
Also if you wanted to do calls during race, steam group chat calls are horribly implimented.
Steam group seems reasonable until you realise steam groups are always ignored and forgotten.
 
The reason I suggested it is because it'll leave a notification on your steam when an announcement is made, it'll set reminders for everyone and I only really use skype for personal stuff, not OC3D things.

Just pick a reasonably fast car and maybe silverstone?
 
Steamgroup would be preferable to me as well. My Skype is for personal stuff and announcements usually catch my eye.
