If you're talking about setting up custom races for practice, to activate BoP, you'll need to do it while in a race car, select one make and save settings. Then back out, select the Porsche and re-enter.
I wouldn't use single player to practice, the track will feel slightly different to how you expect it to when you get into the lobby. My best advice will be to follow the room settings exactly as they are listed in the OP, focus on consistency and keep an eye on the session best tab to watch sector times etc
It doesn’t matter, because it is just the race setting. Bop will be based on the car you enter the race in.
In the case of the season car, BOP doesn't actually change the weight, power output or PP. As Viper said though, it feels markedly different in time trial or custom races versus an online room.
Hey all, Wanted to announce that long term sponsor SELBY ACOUSTICS have thrown in a $500 voucher which will be up for grabs for all platforms at our end of season draw / presso night. As always, drivers will have to race 4/7 rounds to be eligible, and stay within ROOZ rules and regs off track. As a show of support to our sponsors if you can run a SELBY logo on your livery, generally as a window banner that would be much appreciated. Anything we can do to help support the sponsors that help us is a small return. Ill flick some season liveries through to Shaun for him to have a look at. As a former ROOZER im sure he would appreciate seeing some of the cars you come up with. Good luck for the season guys, i hope you have a cracker and thanks for your ongoing support https://www.selby.com.au/gaming.html Stu
SEASON 8 QUALIFYING NIGHT -Alsace - Village -Brands Hatch Grand Prix Circuit -Autodrome Lago Maggiore - East End 15 min Qualifying Sessions - All Preset Weather S01, Afternoon, Equal Conditions On 0x Tire Wear, All other settings same as listed in OP WELCOME to Season 8 for Gran Turismo 7!! As always please take a couple minutes to read the following so you have an understanding of what is expected on race night. If you have any questions, or want clarification on any of the rules or regulations please ask! ROOM OPEN: Room captains may have practice rooms open beforehand but should have the official room up by 7:30pm AEDT. Please be on time, or let the room captain or div thread know if you may be late. If all agree, the room may wait for you, Within reason. Please remember we have drivers from NZ, and later starts mean a much later night for them. SIGHT ISSUES: Before qualifying, exit to lobby and spend 30 seconds in spectate mode, scroll through the list of drivers on track and make sure that you can see their car. If you can't see somebody (and they are confirmed as being on track), exit the lobby, re-join, and check again. Type the number of cars you can see in the lobby chat and cross check with other drivers to ensure clarity. QUALIFYING : 8pm AEDT for 15 mins. Feel free to run practice laps prior to qualifying, The host will trigger a 'Room Reset' closer to the commencement of Qualifying. PITS ARE OPEN DURING QUALIFYING LAG ISSUES / ROOM RESTARTS: This is up to the room host/captains. If there is a Disconnection during the session, it is advised for the Host/Captain to wait for that driver before commencing the next event. Please be as reasonable as you can with this. If the driver does not wish to return or is unable, if they could please let the PSN chat know at nearest convenience, it would be greatly appreciated. TRACK LIMITS: As we are running with 'track limit penalties" OFF, we will run with our usual Raceonoz track limit regulations. This means you MUST have at least 2 wheels on the ripple strip OR white line that defines the track limit. If you do make a mistake and have to run outside the limits, be aware that you are not allowed to gain any advantage, position or time wise. Track Limits will not be monitored tonight due to the session settings. Please follow RaceOnOz track limit rules to ensure a fair and even chance amongst everybody while setting your laps. CONTACT: Is to be avoided at all times..... I'm not even going to warrant this section with a full paragraph. Do not hit eachother. If I have to be contacted about people making contact in a qualifying session I won't hesitate to hand out penalties for the season. That also goes for bump drafting which is STRICTLY PROHIBITED TONIGHT. PIT ENTRY/EXIT LINES: Pit Line Penalties are ON so you will be penalised in game if you cut any part of the entry or exit lines. Be mindful entering the pits that you will need to commit to coming in not long after the final corner. You may receive a penalty for misjudging your line on entry. Be mindful not to impede other cars on your way in. On pit exit, cars exiting the lane are reminded to keep drivers right if there are any cars approaching, you will have to give them space. BLUE FLAGS: There will be no Blue Flags in use tonight so please use your mirrors and be aware of cars around you. You are not obliged to move out of the way for anyone if you are on a hot lap, but please if you are not on a hot lap, be courteous and respectful to those who may be on a hot lap. STEWARDS GROUP AND RACE PROTESTS: This season, the Head Steward will be @Viperzed. There will be no official protests for the qualifying round however if you believe an incident needs to be addressed, don't be afraid to teach out and ask the question. DO NOT BLOW UP IN THE FORUM OR IN THE ROOM CHAT. There have been multiple incidents where the replays from drivers have been different, so its true that sometimes things are not as black and white as they may seem. PARKING UP: If you are unable to continue for any reason, please either enter the pits manually or warp to pits via the Options menu. Parking up off track activates yellow flags in the sector, and even though penalties are off, we have reports of penalties occurring for passes happening near the parked car. Please make sure you screenshot your session best times PRIOR to leaving the track. ATTENDANCE: Could all drivers please inform Room Captains or make a post on the division thread if they do not intend on attending tonight. Room Captains/ Lobby Hosts are advised not to wait for anyone who has not communicated their intentions. If you do not post in your room thread or psn chat that you cannot attend, a spot may not be held for you for the following week's event. Qualifying Specific Each circuit will have a short practice session followed by a 15 min qualifying session in which lap times and optimal lap times will be monitored in order to ensure our divisions are as close as possible! In order to do this, Drivers are to screenshot their Session Best tab in the HUD to record their best lap time as well as optimal lap time. These times can then be sent to the Division PSN chat where they will be recorded by admin and used to finalise our divisions. For this reason, drivers are advised to avoid slipstream where possible as it will unfairly lower your optimal lap time and potentially increase your risk of being put in a division that does not match your ability in this car.
I will add as well, We know neither this system or our old one are pefect. Mistakes will be made, we are only human! If you feel you are placed in the wrong division and will be better suited in a higher or lower div, please say so and we will take your input into consideration. Divs will not be final until next weekend so there is time to change around.
Thanks Blunty075 for all your efforts last night setting up the room and keeping us progressing through the night. My night - room for improvement!!!! Cheers Robert.
Hey guys, dumb question, how do I join the “Division PSN chat”? Or do we post our qualy times in this forum?
Hey Tolley - you should have been added to the PSN chat already as we were all adding this in there last night. Maybe add some of those in the entry list to you friends list and I'm sure one of us will add you in.
Cheers guys. Rob I was in the party but no chat group. I probably locked my account settings down so I’ll look into that this afternoon. Viper I flicked you a friend request, hopefully that helps.
