Durella Grand Prix has been changed quite a bit, due to issues with bumps and prop placement. The layout remains the same, but with improved checkpoint placement, corner props placed further in, and bumps have been "removed" or reduced significantly. I noticed that indeed. Also with that me slothedits _ShediM_ and darealandy noticed that there are a lot of invisible walls. For example when you have the long left hander with the brige near LSC there is an invisible wall when that long left hander turn into a bit sharper left hander. The invisible wall is on the inside there. There were some other invisible walls wich of course only I crash into all the time So just so you know there a some invisible walls

As my teammates already know, about three hours before the start of the MCEC race, my motherboard updated its drivers, which didn't work out well. Result: A fried motherboard, with also took out my video card and hard disk. I'm building a new PC now ( learn from my mistakes), but I'm quite certain it won't be done until the next race. Therefore, I need a reserve for the Grand Final. Jekyll. QuincyS Sorry to hear that, m8! So we need a reserve driver for the final track: Durella Grand Prix, Sunday, 5.30 UTC
I'm tagging people on the reserve list and some others who were posting here before, please respond if you can race with us ( QuincyS and me) You would be driving in GT2 - Coquette. cloudmcshortst0cking Tweekless Madderose Kaneadian BIGGamererDrKlodenCHillHiBerg SANDEMANWell, good news. The kind chaps at my local hardware store gave me ( yes, gave) a good machine, which is downloading GTA as IΒ΄m typing this. IΒ΄m able to drive the final race of the Cup just fine. QuincyS Jekyll.

Appearantly there are no Xbox One controller-drivers for Windows 7, so I yet have to see how I'm fixing this.

If you really want a controller the best solution would be to either connect a 360 controller if u have a 360 or go and quickly buy a cheap Β£ 15 controller just to get the job done for tomorrow.Then theres always the keyboard that can get the job done too.

It worked for me. If you're simply using a wired one, I didn't have to install anything to have it work. And yeah, I'm using Windows 7 too.

Personally I can drive with the 360 controller ( learned to play GTA with it), but I'm not used to it anymore. And thanks to Sarah for linking me that driver, I have yet to install it but I have my hopes on it.

Orchan you should look at the checkpoint near Benny's Shop. You placed it on the outside line of a 2-line seperated "highway", where the racing lane is inside. You will miss the checkpoint by driving on the racing line with your placement. Either move the CP or add some barriers.

GT2: 3:51.36 post-changes. Honestly, I find that turn 3 is now less predictable then it used to be, but that the soft left turn just before the pit area is improved. Not perfect, but improved. The smoothing done on the upward section leading to the highway bridge is much appreciated. While it wasn't necessary (there was a smooth line hidden in there before), it opens up the road so now cars can safely go 2x2 or more through there instead of single-file. The smoothing done at the pit exit... eh I have not noticed that it helped much. my car still bounces and half-drifts through that area every time. It is kind of strange that you're forcing people to ride on the left side during that right turn going under the Olympic freeway. It is possible to nick the checkpoint from the left-most lane on the right side, but I'm not sure how much that helps. Lastly, I am not a fan of the new barriers vs the old concrete ones. In some locations, the new barriers are very tall and obscure the upcoming road. A minor annoyance, sure, but still. Regardless of this, Orchan, please do NOT implement any further changes until after the event is over. No one wants to be surprised on race-day.
