BRC QuER - Hockenheim 1000 km 1976 [FIX]

I will definitely enter this. Made a little excel calculator thing to help working out the weight limit.

It can be downloaded here.

Is the calculator backwards? Shouldn't picking "Y" for turbo make you need a higher minimum weight, it currently shows you the lower of the 2 weights if you say yes to turbo....

I can't select a trim with the BRCTool. I downloaded the version you linked in your post, extracted it to C:\<username>\Documents\my games\Automation\BRCTool, and ran it as Administrator. But when I try to select a trim, the window just shows the path where the BRCTool is, with nothing else displayed. I've checked that the lua files for my car are where they should be, and they are. Any idea what the problem is? I'm running Windows 10, if that helps.

Yes! Yes it was. Sorry!

I've fixed it and re uploaded. Just had to swap the 1 and the 1.4 around.

[TheBobWiley]

haha Absurdist, for a minute there I thought I was gonna be able to lose weight from my car still

[strop]

I'll put in a car later on, to make up some numbers. It'll be based on what displacement/weight is less popular. Personally I hope it'll be huge engines and huge cars, because POWAAAAAAAA

[TheBobWiley]

I have to say, so far $10k is a LOT, maxing sliders is easy now...... squeezing so much power from my 2L... I might actually be able to afford injection now.... hmmmmmmm

It's working here for me, so please check the following steps:

• Are you running the current public version (not open beta)?
• Does your folder structure look like this:
  
• Have you removed any cars and engines built in the open beta?
• If none of these steps leads you to the cause of the problem, please zip up your "Cars" and "Engines" folder and send them to me. Maybe I can find the problem if I try it myself.

I never opted into the open beta, but I'll try uninstalling and reinstalling. If that doesn't work I'll PM you the files.

Just wondering, would it be possible to enter a van?

I have plans, is all...

[Der Bayer]

Why not? It will be horribly slow on the straights, but it's your choice.

Does anyone remember how 'Track Drivability' and 'Track Sportiness' were calcuated? I had a feeling it was in the the BRC 1966 chat but I haven't been able to find a definitive answer. Or is it a secret?

[Der Bayer]

They can be read in the trim lua file. I don't calculate the values myself.

[Der Bayer]

A new version of the BRCTool has been linked and uploaded. Your trims should now be found by the tool again

[AirJordan]

Are all body shapes allowed?
Regarding reliability (it may be already answered but I cannot find it), does over-cooling helps or is max engine reliability met at required?
