[Douglas Garcia]

HAhahahaha, absolutely in! I love this track, really...
And with this car it may be a very close race.

Thanks Scott.

 

[Rob Strobel]

Count me in.

 

[newbert]

Count me in, please! (If the server puts me in a car other than the Audi TT this time, I'll know it's been a conspiracy all along!!! )

One question though - I've been practicing offline while the server isn't up yet - and I see a P2P (Push-To-Pass?) button on the dash. Is P2P operational? If so how/where do you assign a button to it (in CM) and what are the rules of usage?

Thanks!

 

[scottiedawg66]

***EDIT***
push to pass IS enabled, map your KERS button to take advantage of it its kinda fun. practice server is UP!

 

[newbert]

***EDIT***
push to pass IS enabled, map your DRS button to take advantage of it its kinda fun. practice server is UP!

Will do - but when/where is P2P active? Anywhere on track? Does it have to be held down for the duration? (This is all new to me -- I've never passed anyone! )

….and is there a P2PBL (Push to Prevent Being Lapped) button? Personally, I'd find that much more useful!

 

[BP]

1 to sign up, Mr. Scott.

 

[Jivesauce]

I should be able to make it as well. I was planning to get my practice in tonight but I’ve been without power all evening due to a tornado touching down 0.6 miles away

Can someone please explain how P2P is supposed to work? I've assigned a wheel button to DRS Activation and I see "P2P 15" on the dashboard. But when I press or press/hold that button, nothing happens.

Thanks!

I'm not at my computer right now, but I think it might need to be assigned to KERS rather than DRS. Worth a try maybe?

Yup - You're, right! (Assign it to DRS? It's a conspiracy, I tell ya!!!! )

Thanks, Colin!

Active anywhere and a simple push gives you a set time of boost so you don't have to hold it down. It's actually like playing Chess and if you practice with it in different areas you'll learn where it's best to make up ground. Using it defensively is really only learned from racing others. You have a set amount of times you can use it so don't go all "drunk sailor on leave" with it

 

[Bobby Pennington]

I'll plan on being there so please sign me up. Thanks

 

[Jivesauce]

Thanks, Colin!

Man, Scott really has it in for you!

 

[André de Carli]

Count me in!

 

[newbert]

Man, Scott really has it in for you!

Like they say, "Just because I'm paranoid doesn't mean that they're not out to get me!"

 

[Keith_G]

Sign me in please. This car hates me but I will give it a go!

 

[Bobby Pennington]

Sign me in please. This car hates me but I will give it a go!

It hates all of us Keith Hate it back

 

[Rob Strobel]

okay so, this is weird. None of my controls work when I load the Audi tt Cup car, and I mean nothing, steering, brake, throttle, clutch, exit race, restart session, center HMD, absolutely nothing. If I load up the audi tt RS or a few other cars everything works. Not sure what the heck is going on and I will try to get it fixed by Wednesday, but just saying. I deleted the car car and then did the steam check integrity of files and it loaded the Audi tt Cup car back in but still had the same issue. If anybody has experienced this issue please let me know what you did to fix it. Thank you in advance.

 

[Jivesauce]

That's a weird one. The only thing I can think of is maybe you accidentally have "car specific controls" checked in Content Manager with an empty profile selected inside?
