Infrared sensors that will trigger a red light whenever they're coming your way...
I had my own floor when I was living with my parents and that worked...

I already had a cartoon character in my avatar Although I can't get the gif to work...

just because shes bored doesnt mean i am

Exactly...What I DO know is that I have sat for 2 hours listening to what dress she's going to wear the next day, with all the details please. Luckily I had a beer in my hand

Quote from Stregone :

How can I prevent LFS from going into window mode when connecting the the multiplayer lobby? My card doesn't like it when LFS does that, it switches off FSAA. Even if I alt + tab out it does it.

There is an option just before getting the list of servers: Window while connecting or something.Switch it to off!

My shot at was should hopefully look like a face to you.
Since I spent 20 minutes on this I figured I might as well post it.
I just wanted to test the damn app and it got me hooked!

Damn it's hard to draw with a mouse...

If it's anything like the dfp you're good if your desk is thinner than 5.1 cm.

I always keep ''Sorry'' mapped to my keys, not to be able to blurt it out irresponsibly, but in the case I have a nice battle with someone and I tap him a bit too hard not necessarily crashing him, so he can understand I'm not being overly aggresive, just that I made a little mistake.

What I don't like though is people always being aggresive, thinking that ''Sorry'' erases everything as many times as they want.

Thanks for the patch Scawen!
I personally like how most of the new cars sound...especially the mrt, the fox and the fo8!
I agree that the bf1 sounds strange, and that the sounds need some levelling...
I love the new options too, like virtual and real mirrors/speedometers.

As for people worrying about the new sounds I believe it's safe to say that Scawen won't drop something he thinks isn't good yet...

Don't be too harsh because I'm afraid he'll do a kunos...

sure i know what an onomatopeia is, thanks for recalling the latin roots of my native tongue

Onomatopoeia is a greek word, not latin.

edit: Anyway I won't continue this discussion because this is a test patch thread...though I still don't agree.

encore?

Lol it's like saying ''One more time please!''

Or to put it more simply, if the problem is what I think it is (ports blocked by router) check http://www.portforward.com/eng ... orwarding/routerindex.htm

Find your modem, router in the list, and follow the instructions in the site!

Quote from JamesF1 :

Belgium is only good for chocolate and hosting invasions

RUN!!!!!!

(I'm joking Don't shoot me...)

Lmao!!! Just as France is good only for surrendering!

Actually I shouldn't talk...I spent most of my life till now in Belgium and I'm living in France now...

Lol! I just came back from Amsterdam, where I saw those people hugging everyone, and now I see this thread!
What a coincidence!

Omg that's really bad news!

One of the best books I've ever read: The contortionist's handbook by Craig Clevenger...trully masterful piece!

As for my other interests except Lfs I can just devore any book about WWII airwar accounts...my best till now Samurai by Saburo Sakai...

It will logically be updated on the next official patch though...

Very nice! But I'm curious, did you actually make that turn?

Well it's fun to see that some guys don't trust their dads on driving...
I cannot say that since the only accident mine has had in 35 years is a scratch while
he was parked...He wasn't even there.
So I'm more the one not to be trusted since my license is still fresh!
Everytime he gives me his CooperS he doesn't show it but I can feel he's scared shitless...
about his car...

Quote from Scrabby :

i think thats just eye-candy in GTR(2) there isn't even a pit crew so why do we need it?

Actually there is a pit crew in Gtr2, though I don't like the animations very much.

Very nice pics! Specially the first and the last one...You have to be quite lucky to get these shots...

1st&2nd curve, Last curve

Well obviously...

I can somehow understand the 130r corner but the 200r???

I'd love to see this kind of track too, but unfortunately the way Lfs is developed now (1 modeler/texturer),
I think this would take just too long to create.

A point to point track would have to be very long to be satisfying imho...Longer than a lap of the racetracks that we currently have...
Add to this that it is not a circuit, therefore there are much more turns, less straights, more irregularities,
which will take even more time to model than normally.
Even the environment around the track would have to be bigger, more complicated and more diversified.

On the other hand Eric DID model South City didn't he?

Now I'm all confused too...

Rofl...NOW I feel like a geek...

The fun starts when you learn to control its speed with the tone of your voice...although I blew up a lot of engines...

I have tried Gtr2 too, and I agree with most of the stuff you said...
Physics-wise I don't like it at all, but all the things that Lfs misses that are there in Gtr make me fire it up quite often...A plus in Gtr2 for example is you can add custom tracks, which makes it possible for me to drive the Nordschleife (that's where I spend most of my time actually).

There is one thing I don't agree with though...

Quote from Ball Bearing Turbo :

7) Damage
You can smash your headlights and break off a body panel or two, which affects downforce. That's about it really.

I too had the same impression, (although I had already noticed the engine damage if you miss-use the clutch) until my dad gave it a try, and after 2 laps he somehow managed to get the car on fire!!!
