New GSB problems.

With about 2 hours of trying yesterday, I only managed to get a race list up once. The short time that I did have online with 1.2 impressed me, but if I can't get into races in the first place... I noticed lots of folks were getting blank race lists. Anyone found any workarounds for this yet? Cheers, Mark Reading, UK

Mark I was discussing this with Ron Ayton last night. He was told that if you switch between the vroc tab and the address list and then back, the race list often appears. This is not a cure to the problem but seems to be a workaround while the cause is investigated. Hope this helps. MS

I hope that your problems will be resolved soon, 'cause like you said yourself, 1.2 IS impressive. We have to remember that it is a BETA version and that improvements are in the works. I hope that the sugestion of switching between the vroc tab and the address list and then back works for you. I had 2 SRM league races yesterday and 1.2 allows much closer racing; even the occasional touching of the wheels does'nt send you flying to Mars. ( sorry JimmyBo =:-D )

Ctrl-R (refresh) gets you a list me thinks. It does for me, anyway, when I have no list. After a couple of tries that is... I wonder what bandwidth the vroc server demands... Notice that the lacking list coincides with the fact that internet usage in US is taking off in the pre-christmas months... I think we could use several vroc servers, one on each continent? ---Asgeir---

Nope. I tried this for about half an hour on Sunday, but no joy. Eventually gave up and left it for a couple of hours. When I came back everything was fine. Must say that I've been online 4 times since the new GSB and this problem only appeared once. Every other time things worked fine.

Hi guys, Thanks for the help. It would appear that some of my post's aren't appearing, so I'll just re-type. It seems that the problems I had on the Saturday were a one-off. Maybe there were just too many people trying to get a blast of 1.2 at that time. I've had no problems and some superb races since.
