Why you don't install the nVidia drivers to see LFS in stereoscopic 3d?

Quote from Liquid Li0n :
How to get the other screens activated in LFS?

You need a TH2GO (hardware, easy but expensive) or SoftTH (software freeware but more hard to config).

Or new ATI's cards with their new technology called Eyefinity

It is not bad idea but it is not totally valid for what I want to do.

Is for our league, and we make qualy before race. So we need to store first the grid and then add IA to first position, and he need already the slow setup, but we don't want it on the qualy.

So I don't see the way to do with your method

Only one more question, why with a fresh install of LFS don't need to load as administrator?

So if I check the box "load as administrator" every time that I open LFS, have a windows asking if I do permission.

I try to add in the task bar of W7 and with the icon appears another little icon with the symbol that need administrator aprovament.

The same question again... why another fresh install don't? How I can to change that?

Yes I know that, but if you want to race too, you will not want a slower setup.

But I think it can be possible with 2 LFS opened sessions, and one with a script that launch automacally the SC at start

Thanks! Now the problem to do what I want is... How to start an AI with a determinated setup? So I want that AI will be slower. Can be with a slow setup (with admission restriction) or a slower car
Any command to send new AI to started race?

Hi, what I want is assign a script to a button, to call a AI to go to race at the started Race, the intention is a Safety Car.

But I don't know if LFS has a button like /spec but the opposite, something like /start AI1

Hi, I'm on Windows7 I tried a lot of test patch on W7 and no problem with the unlock, now I update from Patch Z to Patch Z25 (oficially) but when I start LFS say "Could not create English file", and when I try to Unlock say "Unlock Error 2" and a message in screen "Cannot create file".

What can be the problem?

Quote from Scawen :Does the multiple views system still work ok?

YES!! you did a great job!

Only I miss, to use bezel compensation (for 3 monitors) with the cylindrical view (5 - 1 - 5)

To me is more natural the cylindrical view with not too much FOV (about 130º) and a subtle adjustment of "angle monitors", than the typical 3D render with "flat perspective"

Quote from Scawen :Same as all recent patches, I think.

On mine it appears in Options... View screen.

Yes, I did not understand the description and thought it was a new option.

Edit: With this new install, I have hear again the music theme lol, time to change

Quote from Bokujishin :I tried as you said, with two AI cars: a XRG and a FBM.
I changed the custom view of the FBM, leaved the options, pressed tab twice, and the view was the same, so no problem here...

Does anyone except you have this bug?

So I don't understand why I have this bug Had you tried with the Z22/25?

Another thing related to Z25, where is the option to set the numbers of monitors?

Edit: With a clean install of Patch Z to patch Z25, don't have this problem with the custom view and FBM...

Quote from tisy0 :That's the old Focus RS

Shift Light's should be optional, Some like them and others don't, Personally it doen't bother me..

That's not shiftligth like in LFS was, on this video is like in a Subaru Impreza STi, you can adjust manually when you want to show the ligth, but it is not the perfect point to do the change gear, ever show at the same RPM. In the video, show at 6500RPM in every gear.

Anyone had tried or has the same error that I mentioned some post ago?
http://www.lfsforum.net/showthread.php?p=1295057#post1295057

-Start a new race with a FBM and another different car (like XFG, or what you want, not FBM)
-Put on the FBM using TAB, modify the custom view (not the in car view)
-Press TAB two times to go again to FBM view
-The changes made in custom view of FBM don't save, and show the default view for FBM custom view.
-The problem occurs when change beetwen one diferent car of FBM, and only the problem it is related with FBM
- Command /view save, don't solve this 'bug'.

"/view save" don't solve anything , so don't save the custom view

I have found a bug.

I was customizing all view (to adapt bezel of monitors with bezel of each car...) and discover a bug in custom view with FBM, only in this car.

I have do a grid with all cars (in the order of the selection list, 1st UF1, last BF1), and add one AI for each car in BL1 track.

After doing all adjustaments, I notice that the custom view for the FBM don't save if you press TAB (to see another car) and when going again to FBM the custom view is the default (only seeing front wheels)

Not a bug, but custom view don't save position for the "screen angle" and uses the same than "in car view"

Fresh Patch Z22 installation.

@Peterules: I think that is because LFS thinks you has 2 monitors. Also for very big FOV like you put in your big screen I recommend to you, that put 5 monitors on left and 5 on rigth (in LFS->options->view) and adjust screen angle to maxium. You will have more natural view, but low FPS

It looks like you didn't run you command prompt as administrator. What good are instructions if you don't follow them?

I was succesfully opening CMD like administrator, clicking with rigth mouse button on CMD (Start->Programs-> accesories -> CMD) I don't know why I have to do that if I'm the administrator...

Quote from Napalm Candy :Are you using Windows 7?

I think this does not happen in XP. I'm using W7 too, but the first time I play to LFS on W7 I see a strange "lag" on the image at normal speed. Now seeing your video I think it is what saw. I will try now in XP

I tried, and it is not related to Windows 7, so in XP is the same.

But I found another 'bug', it is minor.

When I open the test patch on XP (unlocked on W7), the last combination what I was playing was FOX@Fe Gold, so I try to add AI Players and giveme an error in loop, I don't remember exactly the message but say that it can't to add AI driver, and show this messages every second, in this state no button work and I have to close LFS, after openning no problem, that's what I say it is a minor bug.

Quote from Dmt :Scawen, is it possible to get rid of this lag?
It would improve movies quality a lot and makes your eye relaxed.
Recorded it on low speed cause then its the best to spot the lag.

I did that, but give new error message.

"The module was loaded, but has an error on calling DllRegisterServer (errorcode 0x8002801c)."

If I try to open FOVCal, I have the error missing the COMCTL32.OCX
