When it comes to Sector 3’s RaceRoom Racing Experience title, one of the most-heard feature requests from sim racers is functionality for custom championships.
Until the studio adds this functionality to their title, Christoph Kubisch has come up with a workaround, his R3E Open Championship Statistics that will allow players to track results of individual races and combine them into a championship standing:
[boxdownload]Download R3E Open Championship Statistics Here[/boxdownload]How it works
Run the “.exe” file, it should bring up a very simple program that you keep running while doing singleplayer races in R3E.
- The program tracks edits to “My Documents/My Games/SimBin… raceresults.txt” which contains the results of the last completed race (no matter what kind of race it was).
- Based on the content of the file a unique “championship” is created (hash based on starter-field). That means if you choose always the same starter-field config (vehilce class and number of opponents) in your single player race, it shall treat it as a single championship
- For every completed race, the results are appended to the championship file (a simple text file storing the results for every race) and a HTML file is generated with the current standings, see image above
It is an “open” championship, as none of the settings are really frozen (AI…), you can keep going and mix tracks however you want, a pseudo championship based on your single player races. Simply delete the appropriate database lua file in the “results” directory to start fresh again.
