how do i fix this as i have forgotten how to - Sun Feb 05, 2012 12:29 pm

im not actually "flying more that the car cn never put itself in its box or pit it just keeps reloading as such with what seems to be a dusty visor etc . it seems like a never ending loop , you can not drive 1 cm as you have no control of the car

Im sure people had this issue when they updated to 1.3 ; ill do a clean install and see

how do i fix this as i have forgotten how to - Sun Feb 05, 2012 12:15 pm

hi, when i enter an offline test or an online race i get the car constantly falling loads of noise and no way to play .

Quick fix if i delete the C:\Users\andi\Documents\netKar PRO\cfg\nk3d.ini then the game starts and i can run a race except that resolution and graphics are set wrong , so i jump out reset to my resolution etc and then im back to the ever falling car etc

So can someone please remind me what the solution for this is

I really don't think users' number will increase significantly with mods. If it has not grown up with the "quantic" step made from multy in the 1.3 final...
So I agree with Marius, welcome to Mods, but better if made from few groups skilled to make high qulity content, just like netKar deserves.



There are less users because the game has taken so long to get to a playable level (maybe due to being a closed and un moddable format car/physics wise)and in that time it has scared off a lot of people and also not forgetting there is no offline racing mode so less people are interested in hot lapping
so how are you going to choose who is good enough ?
some people have sugar in there coffee some people dont ! , personal taste is fickel to say the least ...
so at the end of the day who is going to sit down and sift through modded content and play god deciding what is good enough and what isnt and how much do they get paid ?
When looking at communities the bad stuff falls to the side quickly and the good stuff stays and the community grows , and some of the best modders /physics guys have to start somewhere to be able to make "good" stuff and the chances are it wont be good first time out so lets see peoples work; if the field opens up then let the end user decide if they like /wish to keep/play user made cars


thats all

this is probably the most important evolutionary direction NKPRO has taken , the thing that has most limited its developement was the fact that there was no user made cars and a lack of true racing tintops and the possibility of creating car sets .As for the arguement that it will be a modding jungle i doubt it but if you dont like it then delete the user made content .
Please please please now that you know how to and with what to do it please release all the details and a how to (although i know its pretty i find your first car choice a little strange 4wd something that you have no original model in game to work off but go for it)
Im really hoping that we get some great user made cars now and finally that NKPRO will stop its slow stagnation and start to become what it should be ...one of the best and most used Sims out there instead of on any given night when there is 2 servers available for every user and a lot of tumble weed blowing around

In quanti siamo? how many are we? - Fri Oct 14, 2011 1:29 pm

Im going to come back to something i said in my previous post about the difficulty of joining a league race here.
It is way to hard there are to many hoops to jump through....
create a driver ok
join gppcos
then create a team
sign the team up for the series
then the driver to the team
and then confirm the driver .....
way , way to hard and ive been wandering around the sim racing sites for a while and this is just scary to new comers
I would guess that you would loose quite a few potential racers this way , its just to hard and to drawn out , the faster someone can get into a series and into a community the more chance they will feel attached and by racing will stick with the community and Sim ;
i think this system just leads to frustration and alienation and at the end of the day the ppl walk away and dont show up on the servers anymore....

there you go

i think there are a few more ppl out there these days but there will be always a few things that will stop ppl using it , primarily it isnt FREE , it hasnt got a nocd patch or hasnt been hacked unlike about everything else out there (except for iracing(which technically has been ....)
Secondly your process here for joining a race is fairly intimidating , sign into this sign into that make this make that ; no click and go option really (could it be simplified ?)
and lastly the hard one no modded car content on NKP means that ppl cant drive the car they love or dream of so they will go drive something else that has worse physics etc but it is an Aston or it is a Megane etc ...


but all of these are just my opinion but from talking with ppl it seems that that is what they feel

for me there are two ways that things will go now ,try and fence this in ever harder and stop ppl doing what has already been done ( and i believe its been done a few times ) or educate ppl on how it works properly ...
cheats exist in all forms of gaming from ram hacks to scripting hacks and im sure everyone of you here has been beaten by a cheat , some of the best cheats arent the ones who beat you by a second there the ones who are that few tenths ahead of everyone..
so decisions decisions , personally i hope that there is some help put out there as unofficially this is the final version so lets keep it alive now that all the new interest is there


so please please lets see some how to's and some tools out there as this horse has left the stable and jumped the fence....

sorry Jeff but maybe this may sound harsh but have you read the guide to install the update (1.3 final)
you do not need to get a new install just that you needed to copy your license and driver info , in documents/Netkar pro then delete that folder , next back up your tracks and then use the uninstaller , if you reinstall to the same folder afterwards it will have kept all of your tracks and skins addons etc . start the game "DO NOT" create a new driver , colose the game now go back to your diocuments and paste the license and driver folder back into Netkar pro folder and all works , no need for any new installs

I discovered same, but it was just me being impatient. You have to wait until list is complete. Option for stop refresh would be useful. Cool



i can understand this in something like rfactor with 900 servers but i think we can all twiddle our thumbs while it finds 30 servers .....

It's not personal preference. Netkar FFB was better in v1.2 and older versions. KS2 was first car with this new type of FFB and now it's in all cars. Andrea promised changes, but I can't notice any.



we always need to remember that FFB is a matter of taste and also it is never a true representation of how a steering wheel react on a car .
So we will always be at some trade off in some way , as long as the car in soe way communicates drift and slide and snap , you can learn to accept that this is the sign and then correct it, other than that its just preference how we like the power of the FFB , until there is some way of creating "REAL" FFB in a game there will always be a trade off

Bring Formula 1 back... quick!



even when bernie is dead i dont think it will happen ....


but its always left me wondering why isnt there a classic f1 series ... then they could go back to the old circuits (that havent been redeveloped to much) and try and kill themselves in that old fashion way ...
