If you want to join, please sign up and keep an eye on the Google Document for more information.
OVGTCC S3 Format:
Practice: 24/7 just join the server
Quali: 8 minutes unlimited laps
Race 1: 15 minute sprint race
Race 2: 25 minute race where top 5 swaps places and YOU HAVE TO PIT AND CHANGE 2 TYRES
PIT Stops
Since there is no server setting to force pits in AMS1, this all goes by the honor system. If you are caught not pitting and not swapping tyres you will be DQ'ed from the race and from further on be referred to as niggerfaggot everywhere you go. You are not allowed to pit on the final lap either
GUIDE TO PITTING WILL FOLLOW SOON
DOWNLOAD
You can download the game on the OVGTCC S3 Google Doc. This version has everything required to participage in the series installed
The LITE version has everything included, individual downloads available for people with existing installs. Including DLC Unlocker for Steam users
GAME SETUP
If this is your first time playing AMS1, first launch AMS Config.exe and set your screen resolution, refresh rate, video settings etc. Then press OK and launch the game with AMS.exe
Inside the game, press the cog icon on the top right, and set your binds for wheel/controller. You won't need more than basic car controls for this series. The cars do allow for onboard adjustment of brake bias.
If the FFB feels odd while driving you can reverse it in Settings -> Controls -> Settings and moving the FFB slider in the opposite direction.
I OWN THE GAME BUT I CAN'T DRIVE THE TRACKS
On the MEGA there is a download for the CreamAPI DLC Unlocker that you drop in the AMS Directory on your Steam Install.
Alternatively buy the Brit Pack DLC, or use the LITE COPY. I've personally used CreamAPI for years without any issues
CARS
We will be using the HSO Super Tourers mod. This mod features all the iconic cars from the mid to late 90's touring car era.

Feel free to run wide on corner exit, just expect to be called a faggot and insulted in public especially if you wreck someone because of it.
No cutting that gives you any track advantage. If you have to cut because of an accident please slow down after appropriately without causing further incidents.
