Some fantastic racing tonight , best of the event so far for me

Hope to cyall next round

Quote from kurent :

I think it would be a good idea to display a toplist of our PB's that we have at lfsworld.net.

Problem is people would abuse bump drafting to the extreme , im sure this would happen, some people even upload dodgy hotalps (/me looks over at dustin) it would be nice but hard to police.

Also i think you need another option in poll
> i upload if bad or good times

I gave birth to a whiner while jumping up and down.

Thanks for this much appreciated.

Echoing the response, just dont let yourself down like that again dustin.

Takes time to build respect , and you really have improved as a driver, this "episode" has dented that. But aslong as you are sincere, this will be forgiven but maybe not forgotten by all.

I voted for a later start would really make life easier here. (esp today)

Dont know how much more i can help as my coding skills arent even worth mentioning.

i did record the sound clipping starting from 30 each time i lower the write ahead value i change pitch so i could make it in one file

at .23 sound is just about gone.

sound test audio result - Vista64

And to think i congratulated you in LFS world

Dustin , im shocked , disapointed ... thought maybe someone hijacked your PC.

But no excuses for this dude.:dunce:

tried again to unlock on vista 64

get strange error on start up of LFS
Could not create english file

when i try unlock, get error
could not create file

----------------------------------------------------------
System/drivers
AMD opteron 146U
NForce 4 Ultra
http://www.nzone.com/object/nz ... orce_vista_x64_beta2.html
Using Realtek 8139 NIC (MS drivers)
Onboard Realtek AC97 audio (Drivers used see above link)
Using 1Gb Ram
-----------------------------------------------------------

gonna test sound now and investigate network activity on unlock.

(was using a creative card that still has no drivers !! )

*******
Update 20.35pm
*******

OK tried installing fresh LFS Ver Q > patched to ver U->

Start up error fixed , first unlock attempt > unlock error >2nd attempt LFS hardlock>tried to kill proccess >system lock

Patched to U14->

Can attempt unlocking without hardlocking system now , but still gives "unlock error"

---------------------------------

Sound is exactley as described as Orion stated, ive tried a few things , Vista alows you to split channels etc or give app priority nothing seems to help this lag/clip effect going under .26/27

I did find a fix for if sound totally stops working in game (which it did on 2 occasions) disable all music then re-enable (i didnt try shift&w shift &n if i can reproduce this ill post and test these hot keys)

cueball this is somthing ive been hoping since s2 alpha demo , individual tyre selction type/change etc, also in garage ie fr-r2 fl-r3 etc.
thinking a little more maybe have the % system , used for idividual pit orders, ie
if FR > 50% Wear change Type R2
(also option to set no change)
FL> 70% Wear change Type R3

etc would be perfect. (for now)

but as it stands it does the job ok and in game representation of wear is lovely (F9)

make sure when going online you have s2 selected and not demo in multiplayer screen.

mmmm simple awnser

DONT OVERCLOCK , this is why system is causing halt state, set everything to default and then report back.

With summer here things are hotter in PC and this is why after reboot its still freezing , thermal protection (p-states) in proccesor.

Im no einstein, but let me put it another way , imagine you bought brand new small road car, and got on autobahn/motorway/highway and drove 1000km , tyres would still be ok, a little bit of wear here and there.

All depends how you drive.

Edit reading your first post , what id like to see in pits in a no change tyre option , i wouldnt like to have a % shwon for tyre wear + the fact tyre wear is un-even so you have 50% tread left but maybe on innertread 10% (depending on camber) so its ireelevant to have % plus takes away the unkown,like vain mentioned , imagine scenario .

People racin on server , some joins

dude "how much fuel"
other dude "5%"
dude "sweet"
other dude "rly"
dude "how much wear per lap on tyres"
another dude "0.18% center , 1.2% inner"
random dude "F12 !!!!!!!!!"

*oop rather large edit

There is no difference in the thickness of the segment lines even when I do a pixel by pixel comparison.

Quite simply , you need your eyes testing

Quote from ajp71 :

Now you're just trying to get insulting. The main reason I'm hardly racing atm is because it's frustrating trying to race with a wheel that's held together with parcel tape

Wasnt trying Anyhow i do know what you mean,sorry for biting but (couldnt help it). i think LFS has gone full cirlce a few times , influx of new + old etc. I still think even with the problems LFS encounters as it grows in popularity, the general feeling i get is that majority are clean and fair and are always improving, i think its always the case that it can take just 1 driver to ruin a race , no matter of his/her ability or experience.

Like most things in life, its what you make it. And im proud to say after more then 3 years playing LFS im still completely hooked, and this is mainly down to the attitude of gaming/racing i find in LFS :grouphug: . great place to be, even if sometimes its the wall/sand/dirt (bah)

Quote from ajp71 :

The only people I've had real problems with are people who are fast, often WR pace with a huge number of miles in LFSW, don't normally post on the forum. These drivers seem completely unaware of the rules of racing, they weave and actually don't deny it and will explain at length how weaving is a legitimate tactic in racing. They also seem attracted to other cars, I've been fairly certain I've been deliberatley, but subtley elbowed off the track by them and they even seem to be able to take out backmarkers.

Obviously your just talking about the formula racers here, so i cant comment as i dont do them for simple reasons like, i cant drive them and attracts to many peolpe trying to race the fast cars without learning the track or racing lines (not "the" racing line)

I find your post pretty offensive tbh , most fast racers with high milage are usually the best might not be the cleanest, but this is racing we are talking about , some corners are all about guts, and main reason they dont have 1,129,144 posts in the forum is because they are to busy racing.

Racing last night on Southcity in XRG/XFG with racers like
MinusDriver, three_jump, SparkyDave, Modoff, Palich, Bawbag, ACLRacer, JeeP, al heeley, Bob Smith, nikimere, Thommm, sidi, teaz-R, Vince, Knick

To mention a few check out the stats most have done quite a fair few miles, most are fast (not to sure about Vince or dave both pretty much noobs tbh ) . sure a few accidents, and some very hard racing, one thing that i find with racing a more experinced feild is respect for each other, without that , there is no trust and with no trust , well.. you turn cynical.

Racing fox,fo8,bf1 is a different discipline to most of the other vehicles, this is the point i think your trying to make. Just dont paint everyone with the same brush.

Quote from ajp71 :

The worst thing they do is to then accuse the inoccent party of hitting them, they also (pre-patch) used to love using the horn to state their right of way in the FOX and usually managed to get the other party kicked or banned because they were more experienced/fastest.

Again same thing i see with over 1000 posts you should know better.

Racing attitudes , keep them on the track , off the track, is time for reflection not finger pointing. No one is a perfect drver

Great idea , will certainally benefit both parties (devs/users) im sure.

/off_topic (Hope your little un is sleeping well and stuff)

All these posts about banning kicking , spoils this general discussion area , maybe if there was admin section , dedicated to problems about servers and bans connection issues , admining help , setup servers etc , i see lately more and more of these posts , no offense leprekaun, your also right, but painting everyone "racers" is a bit unfair , but go to good reputabile servers youll get not get any of that unless your really naughty
