I dont know if anyone else has mensioned this in this thread but im a little short on time so dont want to search though all the pages. But i have noticed not sure if it is the game or my pc but it never used to do it on patch y I have only noticed this on blackwood with fbm as ive only race fxr and fbm since patch z came out but anyway when i look at the fbm from eitehr front or behind at high speed the tyres seem to go funny they seem to start to flicker and i can see the wheels.

Just thought ide let someone know and see if anyone else has had a similar problem.

Hi guys and girls

Ive desided to have a revamp of my pc so im getting a new case which is larger and has a 2 more fans to help cooling im going to get one of thoses fan speed controllers so i can ajust the speed of the fans. But i want to know what else i could buy to make LFS run beter on my pc i have:

1gb of ram
Nvidia Geforce 6200 turbo cache graphics card 256
160gb hard drive

So im just wondering what else i could get to make the game run smoother as at the moment ive had to turn my graphics down to allow the game to run well.

It is not a stupid request racing is all about the enjoyment i love to have banter with my team mates mainly wingnut haha i think it would be good fun and would make racing 100 times more comical.

Hi all

just to increase some fo the fun banter related with racing i think it would be cool as an option inthe setup of the car only cars that have a rear window naturally would be to have a rear message display so we can send the cars behind up messages such as "Pass on the right" and "please go easy on me in a virgin"

Well i had the original version im not sur ewhich one im affraid so i then up dated to the newsest version this is when the screen woudl freeze and the game would carry on. So i rolled it back and it still freezes and restarts on south city but i can play onthe rest of the tracks np. So ill leave it at that until i have the spare cash to improve graphics card etc.

Quote from Dru :I had this sort of thing with a memory and a psu problem, but why it would do it on S2 and not demo... maybe overload?

Im not that great on pc's i get most of it so does this mean i might need a new psu? A more powerfull one to cope with extra load?
