GPL online timing problems

2 posts by 2 people · 20 Jul 1999 - 20 Jul 1999

After getting 1.1 to work properly, I tried racing online and have been having timing problems. It only happens online. Driving around a track the sim seems to abruptly speed up or slow down randomly. It pretty much always sends me into a spin or off the track unless it is on a straight. It's almost like the inverse of warp -- instead of other people jumping around the track randomly, I'm the one jumping aroundWhen I watch the clock in the pit, it jumps around a lot, and every time I get the green to go to the starting grid I'm the only one there, and I'm the only one when the flag drops ( I don't know if this is related, but I assume it is). Does anyone else have this problem? I couldn't find any answers on the VROC help page. Maybe this is related to the timing problem that a second patch is rumored to try to fix??? I'm running a p2 266, 128mb, herc thriller 8mb, 56k v90, nascar pro through my soundcard, ???? Thanks, Brook

In your core.ini file set sync_method=0 and clock_adj_delay=8. If you don't have a core.ini file in your GPL folder copy the core.ini.sample file to core.ini -- you'll probably have to use DOS to do this. Just find and change the values.
