X-Motor Racing

[Eugene Cojocar]

XMR client was updated.
SDK was changed, added restart and auto-run to dediserver, pit-stop rendering was improved.
It's available via UpdateMaster as always.

Hi Eugene, i seem to have a problem when offline, i was racing round D-Park in the lotus last night and every time i visited the pits
and to fill up with gas and drove some more . When i wanted to leave ie, go back to the menu to choose another car the screen would go black, and although i could still hear the sounds in the background the Sim would not respond eventually it crashed..
i tried with different cars. if i didn't pit all was OK .... if i pitted there was problems... i tried with HDR on and off same results...
the online is looking allot smoother in joining the server ...
don't know if it is my machine can somebody else try ...
I'm liking how the pit stops work ....

Hi Rupe, I repeated your steps, but couldn't find any problems. Everything was fine.
I made 1 lap on the Lotus around D-Park (hotlap mode), visited the pit-stop, refueled and drove some more.
Then I went to the menu, and chose another car and drove again (hotlap mode). Everything was fine on my PC.

thanks Eugene,, will do a reinstall..

 

[Rupe Wilson]

its still doing it ... sorry.. will keep looking...

ok 2 x reinstall same problem...if i dont run through the green arrow whilst going through the pits i can quit to the menu ok any in any car.. if i go through the green marker without stopping or stopand refuel i cant quit to menu (all cars).. ive turned of HDR and put graphics to a lower setting .... same thing happens..

hello John.. thanks for replying .. i thought to myself what have i done,,,,

 

[Eugene Cojocar]

I tested it more carefully on WinXP&7, but unfortunately couldn't find any problems.
It worked fine on my machine.
Can you send me your game profile please (.prf file) at contact@exotypos.com or upload somewhere?
It can be found in "\\XMR\Profiles\" folder.
I will try to test it with your settings.

A video by fraps can help too if it's possible.

 

[Rupe Wilson]

Doing it now Eugene ..


Done

 

[JJvR]

Done

 

[Eugene Cojocar]

Didn't receive anything on my e-mail.
Please re-send at exotypos@gmail.com if possible.

 

[Rupe Wilson]

i sent email.. just before you posted maybe 1 min...

 

[Rupe Wilson]

the reason why i took a while , when im recording with frapps to make vid it works ok, it goes back to the menu. If i dont record it doesnt work... i was testing a few times to verify...

it seems the sim is still working even though i get a black screen and its my attemps to close the sim that causes it to stop responding (closing down through task manager)

 

[Eugene Cojocar]

Thanks John and Rupe, I received both of yours game profiles. Testing them now.
Rupe, what's your PC specs? CPU, graphics card and OS?
A video can be before going back to the menu.

 

[Rupe Wilson]

look for another email..

 

[Eugene Cojocar]

I'm afraid, but I couldn't find any problems on my PC.
Maybe that occurs because of nVidia GTX maybe not. I don't know for sure. Unfortunately, I don't have nVidia GTX.
Does it occur only after refueling or just after visiting pitstop?
And what button do you use to refuel? +5, + 10...or FULL?

Hello, if i drive down the right side of pit lane its ok ...if i drive under the green marker i have a problem even if i dont actually stop for fuel just passing through is enough..

ive also had problems with the HDR setting and Nvidea in the past... i have to make a custom profile or when i enter a track the car is not seen and it looks like im floating in the air, thats why i switch it off and on while testing... i think its the fsaa

Eugene, as i was reinstalling i checked the previous version aswell, it also had the problem, i hadnt used the pit stop until today
