GSC2013 "pre-release" discussions here

[Renato Simioni]

Please concentrate your discussions, feedback and bug reports here, while we prepare for official release

If you wish to join in the fun, you can buy the game now here. The pre-order gives you access straightaway to the current build - v1.00 which is actually more of a final beta. Official release is still a week or so away and it will mostly be about some tweaks and fixing the main bugs that have been observed in this "pre-release" period.

Those who buy and download v1.00 now will be able to then patch it to v1.01 from official release with a small update.

While this temporary fix is no longer required for the activation issues we had the last couple of days, you might want to apply it in any case as this also addresses potential Fingerprint mismatch issues and compatibility with 3rd party d3d9.dll based plugins: www.reizastudios.com/downloads/GSC2013_GS_FIX.rar - download and extract GSC.exe into your GSC2013 root folder, overwriting the original.

I'm not sure what you have done in order to get that error message. Did you install the DX files when prompted during installation? Or have you tried to install some other addon or plugin?

Thanks Alex. Yes i've installed DX during the game install, no errors... and i don't have any additional plugins installed, just a clean install.

keep in my that my rfactor and iracing games are working OK on this computer, i'm not sure if this is related to directx or not. Is there any additional steps to get more info?

Thanks!

There is something on your computer preventing the shaders from compiling, I don't know if you have some other overlay tool or something running that is causing problems. Either that or your coreshaders.mas file is corrupt.

Wish i knew how you got Nurburring to work.

It works for me, I just did a quick spin in the Mini's. (I sooooo wanted to do it in a Go-Cart)

I simply copied my 'Ring_2007' folder out of GSC 2012 > GameData > Locations folder into the same folder of my GSC 2013 install

I've copied coreshaders.mas from my working rfactor install, but still won't work. I do not have any additional software on this pc, it is just my racing pc attached to my cockpit i only use it for simracing.

maybe i'll try to update some graphic drivers. Thanks!

 

[Alex Sawczuk]

yeah it wont work from an rfactor install.

Hi Reiza!
I want to create a HDR filter effect for GSC2013 like I did for FTruck (link below).
But it seems that something is blocking.
Question: Is the d3d9.dll file blocked by any service from you?

It crashes after I did the same work I´ve made for FTruck (2012 and 2013).

I notice the V8's have Pirelli boots....this the norm?

Can also confirm 2012 skins work fine.

Just take the new alpha channel from 2013 and apply it too the 2012 skin.....and the colours just pop!!

Ignore the windscreen numbers and grill....was just testing my idea for the alpha channel.

I just copied the gamedata folder that i unrar'ed into GSC2013 and allowed overwrite as you usually do with mods. Sorry to hear it wont work for you, but keep at it is well worth it.

Got it. I was trying to instal just the track into the location folder. I installed game data folder into gsc 2013 folder and off we go! A real blast in the mini!

 

[pingu666]

found fix for reverse ffb with mods, right control key + 8 on the numberpad

 

[Deleted member 151827]

Where can i find the v8 race car mod?

 

[Niall Fitzpatrick]

Congratulations Reiza, simply awesome work.
I hope that anyone having issues gets them sorted soon.

Pirelli tyres on the 2013 Stocks yes. And the FReizas.

Templates will be made available alongside the proper public launch, just so there's no skinning support required while we work through the RC feedback.

 

[Tomas de la Fuente]

One bug that I've have found is that the shadows blinks in Guaporé with Opala, look at this please!!!.

Okay thanks Nick.

Yeah and shadows pop at Interlagos too. After setting time of day I noticed all dynamic shadows would take a second to pop in when watching a replay from each camera.

Great job! Better and faster than the previous versions.
I have only one request to the final version, a controller profile for Fanatec CSR.
We have on \x\GSC2013\UserData\Controller "only":

1. AZ Keyboard.ini
2. Digital Gamepad.ini
3. FanatecGT3v2.ini
4. FanatecPWTS.ini
5. gated.ini
6. keyboard.ini
7. LogitechDFP360Degrees.ini
8. LogitechDFPButtons.jpg
9. LogitechG25 Stick.ini
10. LogitechG25.ini
11. LogitechG27 Stick.ini
12. LogitechG27.ini
13. LogitechWingManFF.ini
14. LogitechWingManFFThorsten.ini
15. paddle.ini
16. sequential.ini
17. teclado.ini
18. TM T500 RS F1.ini
19. TM T500 RS.ini
20. xbox360 Gamepad.ini
21. xbox360.ini

With the Fanatec CSR, working great when emulating G25 (PS3 mode) with no problem and great FFB, but now loading FanatecGT3v2.ini or FanatecPWTS.ini, need a customization to map buttons.
We have a lower FFB, with little or no action in the wheel center, very different when used emulating the G25.
The incident may be related to the Fanatec drive failure?
What Reiza can do to avoid them?
Please, help us.

Could some developer or other member provide a fanatecCSR.ini to be included in the final release?
Specs: i2500k, 8gb ram, CF HD 6870, win 7 64, fanatec CSR wheel, CSR shifter set and clubsport pedals v1. Fanatec Driver 64bit v140 and firmware 756(latest).
Anybody have similar problem with fanatec CSR?
Please, try G25/ps3 mode and give us yours feedback.
Great thanks!

PS3 Mode
1. Connect the USB cable to a free USB slot of your Playstation 3 and to
the connector on the left side of the wheel.
2. After the self calibration enter the PC mode by pressing Back Button for
one second. "- - -" will disappear on the display
3. Press Connect Button + Back Button simultaneously. A dot in the display
indicates the PS3 mode.
4. Playstation 3 and CSR are connected

PS: To work we have to install logitech driver and profile to setup wheel angle.

Tonight I went further in trying to clean up any programs that may be preventing GSC2013 from starting. Please note that:

I have been unable to start GSC13 from the get go. All I can see is the EXE appear in the Program Manager for about 1 or 2 seconds and then disappear.

I also removed every taskbar program I had as well as quitting any process other than Chrome (my browser) and those I could not find a purpose for, but I quit all video, sound and vcard related programs.

Incidentally, GSC12 works great as does Ftruck12 and my multiple instances of rFactor 1 as well as rF2, GTR2, iRacing, NKpro, AC demo, etc.

I also specifically "trusted" all the GSC13 files both in the firewall and AV (norton 360) and I run without AV and firewall anyway.

I will continue to run tests and I will submit a log of running programs in case that may be helpful.

How to I get GSC13 to output a log? It is supposed to output one in UserData/log but that folder does not exist since the game has not run yet.
I am going to try a fresh install with a fresh set of inst. files. And I'll report back.
