It was an analogy more than a direct comparison.

i was assuming it in a context, but since no context was given, i guess it was appropriate
Re: BRC QuER - Hockenheim 1000 km 1976 [WAIT]
Are the cars all limited to the same tire dimensions in that real world race?
There are minimum tyre pressure, minimum wheel weight, as well as maximum width and diameter for the wheel and rims.
Get all the rules you want here. http://www.24h-lemans.com/en/race/regul ... _1744.html
All the LM-GTE cars have a minimum weight of 1245kg btw.

Yes, it could do that if it a) first checked a model file from the right build and then one from the old build or b) if the tool was not closed before selecting the second car or c) something else went wrong because the tool did not reset itself properly between checking various models. I will check in a few hours who is affected and upload the new tool which hopefully finally works in each case. PMs will be sent to the affected participants.

But there's so many variables so it's kinda hard to answer I think.
A V6 Turbo for instance could be bother a ricer or an F1 car. Arguably the Mclaren is both.

For what it's worth, I multiplied the ["CoolingAirflowFraction"]= from Packbat-Cars-Trims.lua by the ["CoolingCapacity"]= from Packbat-Cars-Models.lua and it came up with the right number. But I added all the cooling fixtures before I created the trim and my trim was always the same body type, so I wouldn't expect my entry to be caught out by this bug.

The BRCTool now cannot export cars which do not meet the rules. Watch the log screen for reasons.
This was the message sent out:
Hi,
following the announcement in the forums I would like you to resubmit your cars for the BRC76 race in Hockenheim. At least one of your cars has either wrong cooling values or was disqualified. This is the chance to fix this. The cooling bug makes your car more prone to failing, so resubmitting only makes your finishing chances better Please resubmit until Monday.
Please use the new BRCTool: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B4x5S3wQzQFlN0xYWTc1U1lHQkU/view?usp=sharing
Follow these instructions closely:
- Start Automation
- Start BRCTool
- load your trim in Automation
- go to the trim fixtures tab
- go to the suspension tab
- click on any slider (one click up and one click down) in your suspension tab to reload the car properly
- Use BRCTool like you always do; for your second car add a "2" to you forum name, i.e. "Der Bayer2", nothing different or additionally (don't add a "1" for your first car)
- close and open BRCTool again before exporting the 2nd car
If anything remains unclear please ask in the forum thread. Thanks for your patience and understanding.
Cheers,
Martin
I think I addressed all people who need to resubmit. If you want to be 100% sure but didn't receive a PM, feel free to resubmit. But please, for the love of God, read the instructions (readme.txt and the list in the PM text above).
If you have any trouble please post a detailed description here.
edit: if the forum does not let you upload the files please send an email to the.bavarian (at) yahoo (dot) com
