Race 07 dedicated server up!

Hey guys i came across a thread today that show you  how to set up a dedicated server through steam on the the same computer your gaming from.  So i set one up with just the base cars from Race 07 and a handfull of tracks that came with the game so everyone can enjoy and not worry about getting booted for not having content smiley

You can add mods but ive had a few problem so i just stuck with the base

Cars

WTCC 06 & 07

WTCC 87

Mini

Formula BMW

Camaro cup

Radical

Chatham

and the majority of the 07 season tracks.

So test it out tell me if you can even get in lol and how the connection is....only thing iam not sure about is if the server will stay open when my computer goes to sleep?

Server Name: 2Old2Race.com

Password:  2old

Kurupt, programs do not stay running when your computer is in sleep mode. It suspends all activity until you 'wake' it up. You will want to change your power save settings to 'Always On'. You can leave the screen saver active, and/or turn the monitor off.

 

What sort of problems with mods are you having with the server? Did you know that the dedicated server is installed in a separate directory than Race07? On my system, its in a folder called "Race07ds". All the mods you want on the server have to be placed in that folder. If you dont see a "Gamedata" folder it will have to be created.

Thnx m8 glad that is now confirmed, ill switch that setting today :) Problem wise nothing major...I tried using some hi res tracks I found online but it seemed there was no ai files for them and the ai would just drive around the track in a line at 50 km so I just deleted them and used originals, than just the same problems with the btcc mod that u have encountered....but all is good now!

Just been into the server and everything was running smoothly.  With all the cars out on track there was no sign of lag which is more than I can say about another game I use to playsmiley
