'''OVGHUEC''' is our weekly Saturday multiclass racing series in [[Automobilista]] organised by Iberio Jose Joao Antonio Francisco Carlos Paulo Pedro Lucas Luiz Marcos Da Silva Do Brasil.

You can download the game at the wiki page or on the OVGHUEC Google Doc.

If you want to join, please sign up and keep an eye on the [https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1vlVjNh8r6o_KYUFHf7Hcp8ZaYS5lsEZwFvTeu_K_c1Q/ Google Document for more information].

== How Do I Connect to the Server? ==
Launch the game with AMS.exe. Make sure you have selected "All Cars and All Tracks" at the bottom of the main menu. Hit the Multiplayer button, and then the + at the top right. '''Enter 5.9.248.186:55143''' and hit OK. Click the server and join with the button on the bottom right. The IP will be saved so you can join the server this way from that point on.

== Test Race ==
Just to decide if we want AI rolling chickens, how long to make the series, what track sizes, and what % rule for the AJR.

== Restart Procedure ==
Race will be restarted if needed.

== Car Choice ==
'''If enough signups happen, there will be a second slower prototype class. The faster prototype class will then have a very strict % limit.'''

Since this is a multiclass series, there are two classes of car you can pick. The faster class is the Metalmoro AJR, and the slower and easier class is the HUEC Stock Car. The Marcas and MINI Challenge are reserved for the AI that may or may not even be in the actual series, but will be there for the test race to see if people even want brain afk rolling chicanes in the race in the first place. If you pick these two classes, you will be kicked before the race.

If you pick the Metalmoro AJR, you're expected to be fairly competent at driving. This means actually understanding your car has a ton of downforce, not driving all over the track and constantly spinning off, and not crashing into other cars.

If the admin sees/hears too many complaints about your driving, or if you do not make the 107% cutoff, you'll be made an offer you can't refuse to go into the slower class.

If you're slow, don't understand downforce, or just want to drive the easier class, drive the Stock Car.

== Rules ==

Two races, 30 minutes each. Random start time in daylight.

Accelerated fuel usage is on. You will need to pit for fuel, even starting with a full tank. Make sure you practice pitting, and bind a button to request pit for faster pit stops. You will only need to pit for fuel, so make sure you uncheck tires being changed.

Don't drive like an idiot, and pay attention to the flags.

Don't flip Marko Tulska. Unless it's [[Flip Marko Tulska Day]] or if flipping him would be really funny.

=== Track Limits ===

Feel free to run wide on corner exit, just expect to be called a faggot and insulted in public especially if you wreck someone because of it.

==The 105% Limit SUBJECT TO CHANGE :)==
'''Results will be based off of the Live Timing, not the FOSS Live Timing'''

Within the entire week of practice, along with the qualifying session right before the race, any driver who fails to set a lap within 105 percent of the fastest time will not be allowed to race in the Metalmoro AJR. This is to get you to actually practice so you're not driving all over the road being a hazard for the slower class cars because you're constantly spinning out and just being slow in general.

For example, if the fastest lap time was 60 seconds, each driver must complete a lap within 63 seconds to guarantee a start.

== Skins Guideline ==

As usual, you can make your own livery if you like. Skin Templates and the email to which you send it to are in a link on the Google Document.

'''In your .veh file: (''"QUOTATION" MARKS ARE NEEDED FOR ANY LINE YOU ENTER'')'''

- TCS and ABS are allowed on the server. Feel free to use them if you are having trouble, but be aware they come with a weight penalty.

- If you are driving the Stock Car, bind a button to Temporary Boost in the options. The car has a limited amount of uses of push to pass (temporary boost of horsepower) per race.

104.145.73.180: /* The Kita Situation */

[[Category:Guides]]
== ¿Qué? ==
Page documenting (finally) the stuff to be done to a stock server to make it ovg worthy. Includes some workarounds, some important configuration tweaks, overrides, and overall comfort stuff. This is a work in progress and will be updated as I stumble upon more and more stuff to fix. Focuses on [[Automobilista]], but tweaks should work for other sims based on the same engine.

== The Kita Protocol ==
If Kita join times out, but everyone else doesn't, change port to something higher up. Seems to be some network fudge with OVH servers. Troublesome to troubleshoot.
Works with '''50041''' and '''500141''', as tested with GTR2 OVG500 and AMS [[OVGARC]].

'''Multiplayer.ini'''
<nowiki>
Query Port Start="50141" // range is 1025 - 65535
Port Start="50041" // range is 1025 - 65535</nowiki>

== Escape at any time ==
It sucks to have to stop before teleporting to pits.

'''Multiplayer.ini'''
<nowiki>Must Be Stopped="0" // Whether drivers must come to a complete stop before exiting back to the monitor</nowiki>

== Safety car collisions ==
On some modded tracks, having SC collisions on means massive spergouts (see: OVGF3 S2 Pau) so it's recommended to disable them:

'''DedicatedServer.PLR'''
<nowiki>
QUICK Safety Car Collidable="0" // Whether safety car is collidable
MULTI Safety Car Collidable="0"</nowiki>

== Qualifying lap limit ==
This is a very important setting in GTR2 as most GDBs use funny lap limits. Always worth a look in the other games. Usually set to a high enough number so people can actually get good laps in, but setting it to 1 means a tense one-shot qualifying session.

'''Multiplayer.ini'''
<nowiki>Qualifying Laps="255"</nowiki>

== Blue flag penalties ==
By default they're too sensitive, especially when someone gets bored and starts exploring track geometry, so turn them off

'''DedicatedServer.PLR'''
<nowiki>
QUICK BlueFlags="0" // 0=none, 1=show but never penalize, 2=show and penalize if following within 0.3 seconds, 3=0.5s, 4=0.7s, 5=0.9s, 6=1.1s, 7=use SRS value "BlueFlags=<0-6>" (default is 3)
MULTI BlueFlags="0"</nowiki>

== Pause when no players ==
Self explanatory. Avoids the possible issue of servers going on their own to Q and R after a driver joins even for a few minutes.

'''Multiplayer.ini'''
<nowiki>Pause While Zero Players="1" // Whether to pause a dedicated server (and stay in practice session) if no human players are present</nowiki>

== Reverse grid ==
(untested yet) AMS has a setting to automatically run a race 2 with reversed grid, this can be enabled by adding a second race session.

'''DedicatedServer.PLR'''
<nowiki>QUICK Num Race Sessions="2" // range: 1-4
MULTI Num Race Sessions="2"</nowiki>

== Warmup ==
AMS disables warmup by default, and we want warmup so people can get their sip, piss and the admin can reverse the grid.

'''DedicatedServer.PLR'''
<nowiki>Run Warmup="1"</nowiki>

== Disable Parc Fermé ==
Defaults to an rfm/srs related setting, worth disabling it altogether in case you're running a funny series.

'''DedicatedServer.PLR'''
<nowiki>QUICK ParcFerme="0" // 0=off, 1=no setup changes allowed between qual and race except for 'Free Settings'), 2=same unless rain, 3=use SRS default 'ParcFerme=<0-2>'
MULTI ParcFerme="0"</nowiki>

== Everyone can vote ==
Democracy bitches

'''Multiplayer.ini'''
<nowiki>Admin Functionality="3"</nowiki>

== Random settings ==
Bunch of things to allow for either memes or driver swaps.

''' Multiplayer.ini'''
<nowiki>Allow AI Toggle="1" // Whether users are allowed to toggle to AI control on the fly
Allow Spectators="1" // Whether to allow spectator clients to join the server.
Allow Passengers="1" // Whether to allow spectators to join a car as a co-driver/passenger.</nowiki>

== Spectators in R ==
Allow spectators in closed sessions for those epic driver swap strategies, will come in handy if the server does an endurance race and driver swaps are required.

'''Multiplayer.ini'''
<nowiki>Spectators When Closed="0" // whether spectators are allowed to join closed sessions</nowiki>

== Per track things to look out for ==
GTR2, and probably some other sims using the engine, use the estimated lap time found in the track GDB and calculates the theoretical amount of laps needed to cover the race time. If the time limit is reached before the lap limit, race ends as expected, but if the GDB defined lap time is too slow the race will end early (see: GTR2 OVGT500 Rd2) and everyone will be disappointed.

'''<track>.GDB'''
<nowiki>
Qualify Laptime = 204.669
Race Laptime = 211.867</nowiki>
