HSO & HSO-A Open - SCCA 1974 - Daytona - May 11th 2014

I might be totally wrong but I have the impression that many regular drivers either are not aware of this open or might have thought that it takes place at a US time schedule. Maybe linking from the main forum or sending the email we get for other opens will help?

As you can see, I moved this race in the "Open topic" for a better visibility.

Let me correct you Mike, pilots eighteen!  

Porsche 914/6 GT ‘70 #88 please!

   

Hello folks!
It's been a while since the last time I race with you. But, now I've got some free time to practice and race again.
So, can I take the #13 Capri?

Plymouth Barracuda ‘70 #48, please   

cool love these cars

ill take the yellow bird   
Camaro 39

ALFA-Romeo 2000 GTAm #24 please

Registration and drivers list should be up to date now. Scream if I missed you. Just checked all the way back to Jan.   

Sorry Mike, you know I'm not peculiar to such requests. However, I would like to ask you to replace Porsche #88 - BMW #49. The choice would be a bit hasty, BMW #49 option without a doubt the final! I would be very grateful!

No problem, will do so now! (edit: a very good call I suspect, 914 may be a paper weight on the long straights.)

Really long straight require more engine power, which unfortunately Porsche 914 not enough.
BMW on this track gives me great pleasure, I hope after a thorough workout will be able to offer someone interesting fight!
Thank You Mike!

the Mustang
also the camaro isnt the 68 but the 67 wich lack of torque!

Getting "Track Geometry" and terrain.tdf mismatches when I join the server

Terrain.tdf is not one of the files for the track so I am guessing your graphics settings may be the issue. Crank them up to max and see if the problem goes away. Back them down if needed until the problem comes back.

It ain't a graphical issue (Everything max as you suggested and was still doing it), It's because when they released this track it didn't come with its own terrain TDF file, So therefore it uses the original in the Location's folder.

So either mine and yours (Joshua) original TDF folder has been changed/Edited and is causing the mismatch, Yes i'm having the problem too, But i doubt its that because i have downloaded the original TDF File off of the ISI website and replaced it (Still no joy) and i think the only way to cure it is either we have the same TDF file as the server is using, Or you allow mismatches. I've also tried deleting the HAT files as many sites recommended trying.

This is all from what i've read and all the other tracks i've had problems at with this issue didn't come with a TDF file either, Cadwell park for one example.

OK after more searching i found this file and Hurray!   Works now,

I just extracted where it says and was working fine. So try this Joshua and let us know.

Chances are somewhere along the way one of the HSO tracks for HGT 1.95 modified that file. Most of us regulars got it, others did not. Thanks for the catch Richard.

No problem Mike, Maybe an idea to add it to the 1st post just below the links where you download the mod, Therefore if there is more people who have the problem, The will not need to search through the thread, as Its there at the top on the 1st page.

Excellent idea, will do that now.

Thanks Richard, worked a charm.

Now I can see Class-A is not for me ;( Can I swap to the #118 Capri please?

E: Better car choice added. I need it

You can, but the Porsche will get eaten alive on the straights. Just a little tip

The other cars will too, compared to those Capris

Could you suggest a better car for me then?

I'd go with the with the Javelin   

Seriously though, either the spare Capri or the big BMW.

In that case, above post edited so I don't confuse Mike.

  

Getting dizzy with all the car changes.
