For the MHR yes, for the Nutter rank it counts all combos.
Unlocks for this week all used - what to do?

Problem: You tried to unlock your LFS and got a message "Unlocks for this week all used".

Quick answer:

You will automatically get a new unlock on Friday morning.

Longer answer:

People can sometimes be confused about unlocks because it doesn't work the same way as other software they have used. Please be assured that your license is for life and you don't actually run out of unlocks. But there is a limit to how often you can unlock. This is to prevent license sharing, either deliberate or by mistake. We have to protect LFS so that only people who bought a license have access to the licensed content.

Normally you only need to unlock LFS once and that unlock can last a long time (sometimes years). There is no need for frequent unlocks. But you may get a new computer or install a new copy of LFS so of course we allow more than a single unlock.

How does it work?

Initially (with a new license, or after a major update is released) you have 3 unlocks. So, for example, you can unlock 2 copies of LFS and still have 1 spare unlock remaining. Then every Friday morning, if you have less than 2 unlocks remaining, 1 new unlock will be added (up to a maximum of 2 remaining unlocks).

NOTE: You should leave your copy of LFS unlocked. Don't lock it each time you exit from LFS, or you will run out of available unlocks very quickly and you will have to wait until Friday to unlock again.

I don't understand how removing all mods from the mods folder would make the game faster. I'd expect it to be slower as the mods need to be downloaded again Uhmm

Ctrl + M is "clip mouse to screen". To hide the cursor, press Shift + Z.

Which cars did you have selected when you pressed "enforce cars"?

Do you unlock your LFS account in-game every time you want to play? That is not necessary, it should be enough to unlock it just once on your computer.

You can use the same ReqI for multiple buttons (React Node InSim always uses 1 too), but each button must have a unique ClickID (0-239).

You can view the source code of the TextBox component: https://github.com/simbroadcasts/react-node-insim/blob/main/src/lib/components/ui/TextBox.tsx

I think the logic and button structure could be rewritten into C# - it's a bunch of InSim buttons carefully placed together with some logic handling the scroll position and text splitting into multiple lines, but the part about displaying and updating the buttons needs to be handled differently since C# doesn't have a renderer like I have in React Node InSim.

I'm sorry but why do people tend to switch to DM all the time after asking a question? The point of this being in a public forum is that anyone can contribute and help you out. You can just continue in this thread.

Or you could show a message when a race session starts in the middle of the screen maybe using /rcm message, InSim buttons or chat message.

He just explained why it wouldn't be a good idea to expose this information via InSim.

What is your handbrake assigned to? Is it an axis or a button?

There is no way to get the green light event through InSim because if it was possible people would use it to cheat and get a perfect start.

Quote from chucknorris :None of that does really compensates a potential loss of the IP address.
As for TC, I can say that many of our security related functions rely on the IP address.

Such as:
- Detect ban evasions
- Detect stolen accounts
- Detect VPN/proxy usage
- Detect the user's country

I'm trying to understand how "allowing hosters to identify if someone uses multiple user names from one computer" and "allowing hosters to identify if the same user name is used from multiple computers" does not compensate for a loss of IP address. To my understanding, people evade bans by using multiple LFS accounts. Stolen accounts are the same user name joining from multiple computers. Scawen also mentioned sending the country code separately. What am I missing here?

But why is that? Is it a bug or a limitation of the layout system?

Several people have reported an issue during their LFS account creation - they never receive the confirmation e-mail after registration:

Model authorisation does not belong in a work in progress thread, it belongs to the "Private agreement" field in the mod submission form (which you have done already).

Quote from WildGamerz :1 more thing if im connected to insim relay how can i create commands if Prefix field is ignored when Isrelayhost = true; in insimdotnet lib tho

Is there a reason you use InSim Relay to communicate with your server? If you want to create commands etc. you can just connect to your server directly via InSim Uhmm

How do you test that it doesn't work? I see you're sending an IS_MTC packet which won't work via InSim Relay unless you connect to the host with the correct admin password using the IR_SEL packet.

Only a subset of InSim packets are allowed to be sent / received:

Quote :Regular insim packets that a relay client can send to host :

For anyone
TINY_VER
TINY_PING
TINY_SCP
TINY_SST
TINY_GTH
TINY_ISM
TINY_NCN
TINY_NPL
TINY_RES
TINY_REO
TINY_RST
TINY_AXI

Admin only
TINY_VTC
ISP_MST
ISP_MSX
ISP_MSL
ISP_MTC
ISP_SCH
ISP_BFN
ISP_BTN

The relay will also accept, but not forward
TINY_NONE // for relay-connection maintenance

For the whole documentation, see the original InSim Relay thread by Victor:

Some people use LFS Editor to create the entire 3D model, others use Blender to create the 3D model, then export it as an OBJ file, which can be then imported into LFS Editor.

Quote from Scawen :So we are left with, what problems could arise? The only issue I see is that someone could load a mod in our editor and export the plain grey model, which might be a breach of someone's "no derivatives" license. The proposed export function just makes it easier to get a 3D model out from an LFS mod, to be used somewhere else. It doesn't really allow anything that wasn't possible anyway, just makes it easier.

This will also make it easier to get access to 3D models that were purchased from 3D asset websites like (Sketch)fab or CGTrader.
