World Sim Series uses a sophisticated calculation system to define the rating of each driver – ELO rating system. If you win against a higher rating driver you will get more rating points than winning against a lower rating driver. In a race, you basically win against everyone who is behind you and lose against everyone in front of you.
In race events where there is an unlimited registered driver count and more registered drivers than the circuit allow – the system will split drivers into multiple divisions and create multiple servers. The highest rating drivers appear in division 1, lower rating drivers appear in Division 2, and so on.
Please launch Assetto Corsa normally and configure using the original Assetto Corsa launcher or use Content Manager to change settings.
Once settings are changed – they will also be used when launching through WSS.
