Greetings fellow GTPlanet TT Assistent users.

You may have noticed that the plug-in has been extremely unreliable over the past week or so. After extensive debugging that nearly brought me to the brink of losing my sanity, I discovered that the root cause was … an improperly plugged-in network cable 🤣

Anyway, everything should be back to normal now. Enjoy, and let me know if you’re still experiencing any issues!

Also @Wilsonson brought to my attention that at least on Firefox for Android (perhaps other browsers as well), there was a bug that caused duplicate entries when you used the browser back button. This is fixed in the latest version, so if you're encountering this issue, simply update as usual.

I was joking the other day, but I had a big scare last night...
same symptoms as you: no more FFB on my TGT2... steering wheel completely loose... ☹️ ☹️ 😮 😮

I exited the game, restarted the PS5, and luckily everything went back to normal...
A TGT2-specific bug???..🤔🤔🤔

Strange... strange... Did you say strange? ....How strange...🤔🤔🤔

My T300RS does this often. Sometimes just pausing the game while driving and then unpausing will fix it. Other times, unplugging the wheel and then replugging it is required.

It is definitely an in-game bug
 
Polestar at Brands Hatch is pretty nice 🙂

I managed this at Lago yesterday. Did 2 more sessions today to try and get a sub . 5 but this might be as good as it gets for me. Would be my second top 1,000 ever if it holds.

Did another session at Yas Marina as well. The aliens are doing alien things and I'm awkwardly close to silver. Optimals and invalidated laps are well into the 49s but I wasn't able to put it together yet.

Personally I have 3 main areas of trouble.

T3 is insanely hard for me to nail. If you screw up T2 just a tiny bit there is no way for you to nail T3 and you will have to compromise the run up to T5 massively.

The exit out of T7 is just hopeless for me. Calster exits in 3rd. No matter what I do his ghost always leaves me in the dust.

Just like mentioned before the run through T13 and T14 is crazy. I have no idea how his ghost pulls away like that. I genuinely feel like I'm doing pretty well but the ghost is nowhere to be seen. Magic.

Did you give the data logger a try? It‘s quite revealing. I found that in general I stay on the brakes a lot longer than the ghost I am following. And my T7 was compromised because the line I took was too narrow. Obviously knowing my mistakes does not necessarily mean I am able to fix them, but it‘s a first step … ;)

I spent some more time in the Polestar with which I had more fun than I would have thought. Optimal is (ever so slightly) in the 49s, but not sure if I get another chance before it expires.

Also, I know there is always the placebo thing going on with every update, but I really feel like the FFB on the DD Pro has improved a lot. I saw some other people mention this as well. What do you guys think?

I told you there was more in it. Just before I laid this down, I was sitting at a 49.7, which would've been enough to keep me safe in the gold zone... However I wasn't completely satisfied and pulled another 2 tenths out of the bag, which put me 0.005 seconds behind my brother. It's insane how close we are sometimes.
