    yes, my DS is up to date and files verified. but you are right of course in that the new version explains the lower amount of servers in the list right now. so it might just be me who has the problem.

    the web-interface show joinable: false (X)
    is this normal, or is this something to worry about? i can't remember if it showed something else when it was still working.

    To be honest I didn't even realize the public game had a DS update. I thought it was only happening in the beta so maybe others do not know either. I do see less servers but I got all of mine updated and showing on the list.

    That's normal until host has joined

    I quite like that it shows the index. Super handy in large files and when debugging server responses.

    i'm not 100% sure, but i think "realistic" setting overrules the single force ABS/TC/SC off.

    As far as I remember from pC2, Realistic allows you the use of whatever the car has available, but setting an individual setting to Off, permanently turns it off. So turn all 4 options on and the cars will only be able to use the aids they do have and have the choice to turn those Off. :)

    When you run MP events with AI (which is one of the most unique features of AMS2), you still have weird desync of AI cars. Some Ai cars seem to go sideways as in a constant drift, sometimes they levitate above the track. This happens on dedi and when hosted from the game client. This was also a problem on pCars2.
    Also visual damage of all cars (player and AI) gets not synced after a repair. Also both on dedi and game client.
    Also players who join in progress (training, quali) cannot be seen by other players until the player presses "return to pit". this happens on dedi but probably also on self hosted (i did not notice it there yet, because it seems that the hosting player is not affected by that glitch).

    It would be great if you could look into these problems. Racing in MP with AI is a great way to spend a casual evening with friends and for me it was the feature that made me love the project cars series. With the levitating, sideways driving cars it looks really silly at the moment.
    Thanks!

    This is a feature that prevents users from lags and hickups from loading aditional cars and liveries while driving. Thats why this cars will be only initialised when you return to pit.
    On high populated sessions it could be disturbing when anytime a new participant arrives your system begins stuttering, especialy when you load the game from a normal HDD and not from SSD.

    Wow, i did not think of this. Thanks for the info.
    It's definitely a feature with good intentions and i appreciate the thinking behind it. At the same time it's also a terrible feature, because it's immersion-breaking and just bug-like in appearance. I hope the problem can be solved better in the future (maybe have a serverside option or a client option so that people with ssd drives can choose to initialize isntantly...)

    Good morning everyone.

    Maybe I overread it, but 35 pages is not little.
    I can not reach my httpApi from "outside".
    I would like to have that so that the admins from my league can access it.
    Also it looks like I can get to the api from the localhost from time to time without a password.
    I can't find this error either :(

    Can someone help me with this?

    Attached is my current server.cfg.

    Last but not least, is there a tutorial to create the track rotation?

    Thx a lot
    Cheers DudeMcQueen

    @DudeMcQueen You will need to update the following config entry to listen on your external IP address and forward port 9000 thgouh any firewalls

    Most browsers will cache http basic auth information for a time.

    127.0.0.1 is local host, so can only be accessed by the pc the DS is on.
    in http interface you'll have to add the ip adress of your PC. Best is you give your PC a fixed IP4.
    If you want to have access from the internet, your router must route external http access to PC_IP:9000. Also must have a fixed Wan adress or e.g. be connected to DynDns, so that your router can be found from the internet.

    must have overlooked the passage in the .cfg.
    it works now.
    thank you very much!

    Is there a setting to get the current session shown in the httpapi also if no one is connected to the server?

    There is no current session to show until a host connects. You can see what will be used when someone does connect by checking the next session tab of the session attributes page
