Wednesday night rFactor - 20:00

[mj04uk]

So are we meeting up tonight ? Lambo's, Clio's or the Formula BMW's ?

[UncleDave]

Fancy setting up the server


Please

What's Formula BMW - I can't find it on rfactorcentral.

[petmitt]

Ta... wasn't expecting it to be open wheeler thing. I like my road cars

[Marc W]

Me too, out of those three I'd vote for the Clio's. I'd be interested to see what they're like online. Failing that though the FBMW's would be good.

[AJLintern]

Lambos!

Or the opposite as ex-Formula One Champion Keke Rosberg once said when asked if he would race touring or sports cars after F1 - "...“NO! only toilets have doors” he said.

PS. He raced touring cars in the DTM in the 1990's

I hope by road cars you mean racing road cars. I hate to see actual road cars in racing games, we can leave that fantasy to NFS and the like

[rebelstar]

Give me 5 minutes to set up a server... I don't think the Lambos or BMWs have been downloaded, so it might have to be Clios tonight.

[D_Mike]

which are we doing? I don't have any of them and only want to download one.

[rebelstar]

OK, I've got the Porsche Carerra Cup running. Will get the Lambos downloaded for the next time.

[petmitt]

Road cars as in cars that you see on the road. Production cars, but track prepared. E.g. the Caterhams. I'll play open wheelers and the 1979 GP is a beautiful mod, but I prefer the less powerful, much chuckable stuff.

[Marc W]

I'm having trouble getting any servers to show up at all;

"Internet matchmaking is temporarily unavailable"

I want to play Rfactor not internet dating!

Is it the GB porsches or the German ones? I hope its one of those two as I don't have any of the other porsche series!

[rebelstar]

The German ones

[Marc W]

Its still not letting me connect, I can't even get the server list up.

[rebelstar]

That sometimes happens. Quit out and retry... it usually comes back.

[Marc W]

On the 5th restart now, I'll keep trying for a while.

[D_Mike]

have you got a firewall up?

try retarting your router if youi have one.

[Marc W]

I have a firewall, but rfactor has permissions. I'm pretty sure its not that as it was working last week. I'm going to try restarting everything now, the pc, the router the lot.

EDIT: Still nothing. I don't think it wants to let me play today
