Yeehah

Who's that dr dig in the hotlaps ??

great!

Everyone please try to avoid nicknames on the server...

It was me with Hot Hotto nickname, sorry to all, since I installed this mode to an "test" game install, I just forget to change it... and rushed to join the server

But, now, Im having a problem, I manage to connect to server but I dont get my car for driving. I see other car(s), but mine is missing. Tried with several game instalations, several cars... even with nick name again, but problem remains..

any ideas?

That URD is addictive

Are you sure you're not on spectator mod?

If all else fails, create a full new profile after deleting the previous

thank you

I can't seem to join the server with anything other than a 1976 Porsche 934.
All other cars disappear from the menu after I enter the server password.

You have to buy all the cars before you go online

And how is this done?

I found this menu style so annoying... could somebody clear to me, when are the car options bought/installed?? Im having difficulty with very soft FF, so Id like to "buy" a stiffer FF, but just cant figure out what should I do...

For me I just had to turn all the filters on

I didn't have to buy all the cars, Weird how it affects different people.

Same here... I don't even see the point to modify this, the original one works fine.

If you want to install an upgrade you have to buy the car (the blue dollar sign). After that you can go in the upgrade menu, and select the upgrade you want. To install it you have to buy it (blue dollar sign just on top of the upgrade menu).

Yes I mixed up some things, that's actually what you have to do

I told you that when we were on the server earlier...

Same here, Richard. Thank goodness for that, because I dried up what little in-game money given to me by the mod/install/whatever in pitlane speeding fines, now I have to earn it all back!

You can always cheat Matthew

VLM included the old UI as well. To change to the original, go back into the rFm and in the VLM_PTC.rfm file change the line "OptionsDir=UIDATA\PTC\" to "OptionsDir=UIDATA\PTC2\" and re-load the game. Although I actually really like this new UI so I've left it as default

Thanks Alessio

Only showing owned cars for me now
Earlier it was fine? Very weird.

EDIT : Further investigation, Its only letting me use an Alba, And i dont even own all of them

Any ideas?

EDIT AGAIN : Fixed it, Just had to load another mod up (One of the originals) then loaded GTPC back up and they are all there

@Alessio, thank you for menu tip
@Mathew, since I didnt notice Im in spectate mode, i couldnt chat nor see your advice... I suppose.
thanks anyway

Won't that cause a mismatch online?
