Was quite surprised to find this thread, but cool, definitely more comprehensive and helpful than mine! Plus it's good to start over with a clean slate/thread.
I wish you good look with trying to answer all questions that arise. As you can see I tried to do the same with my thread, but it will pile up within no time. I hope others can join in too on answering.
I will try to answer as much as possible, but then again, I haven't been in LFS for a year and haven't made an LFS movie for about 2 years, so I may not have answers to many questions.

Thumbs up.

You work as a DJ? Don't you mean producer? Or do you actually spin records publicly?

Anyway, I've listened to both of your songs on your website and I'm pleasantly surprised. I expected an (perhaps unsuccessful) attempt of creating standard commercial electronic music, yet instead you created music I couldn't confine in any genre. Both were tracks of a new style. Your style!

You seem to ignore all commercial influence and listened to your own inspiration when creating those songs and that is something I always greatly admire. I do the same thing too. I have created dozens of songs which all have sort of a touch of different genres, yet are none of those. I create music as I want it to sound, not so that others will like it.

Sad thing is, I've once created a track which does fit to only one, perhaps commercial genre, Anthem Trance, and it reached international attention by radio stations and producers, while the others received only a small audience.

What I'm trying to say is, if you really love what you're doing, keep going this way and enjoy your music, as others will hear and appreciate your love for your own track. Yet, if you want to make big money out of it, confine it in one popular genre.

Never tried Fish 'n Chips, something about them being served in newspapers frightened my taste buds, so... Burger and Chips!

Heineken or Guinness Draught?

Quote from bramski :i've hardly touched lfs or any other sim in ages for that matter. But it will always have a place on my hard drive. Even if the devs announced tomorrow that lfs wasn't being developed any more i'd still keep it there and fire it up from time to time over the years just to remind myself how much of a masterpiece it is. Even if we had fully immersible holodeck technology i'd keep an old 22" monitor and an old dualcore gaming rig with a g25 in the wardrobe just to play lfs every so often.

For the people bitching about 24 quid.... Please, i was in a bar the other night, bought a round of drinks for 6 of us and never even seen change out of a twenty. Get a paper round or something if moneys that tight

qft.

Bob said it. Only if you have an avatar and your profile information filled in, you'll create empty space.

And besides, even when everybody has empty space underneath their posts, I'd still rather see nothing in between posts than annoying signature banners.

Quote from RS1T :Did i ask for a new graphics engine?

No, but it just shows how excited people get when they think of what they want in an update. We can find 500 threads where this derailment has occurred.

However, the car models are designed exactly as you see them in LFS. Therefore the cars must be completely re-designed in order to increase the poly-count. So with the current rate of progress, this would take a year, at least.

Thanks. I did create the wallpaper, but the original idea wasn't from me though. I found a tiny image on an image archive website and decided to Photoshop my own.

Quote from mookie427 :Basically it's another story of the British government caving in to pressure from Muslims

That seems to be quite true, unfortunately. And said pressure is being applied wherever Islamic leaders feel it is required, which most of the time even works!

He's been arrested and has just made his return flight. Maybe we (The Netherlands) should do the same as Britain? Arrest upon arrival and send him back. He'll be trapped in a black hole!

Anyway, my OMG moment:
Going down a mountain on a snowy road on a sled with a friend of mine in front. He wasn't too quick with learning how to steer with your feet and when we wanted to steer away from the ledge with a 600m drop, he steered RIGHT INTO IT!

Good news? We were stopped before falling into our deaths.
Bad news? We were stopped by a tree, at roughly 60km/h.

I have to say both Bioshock and Fallout 3 (Xbox360) captivated me completely and made me forget about any other game I recently bought.
Thing is though, I never finished those exact games while I have finished pretty much any other game I've bought.
They're beautifully designed games, but for me, they are the type of games you forget when you play something else halfway through.
They're not overrated, but just really taste-sensitive games. (Which is why they're the hottest topic of this thread...)

All Simbin games and rFactor, now THAT's overrated. Especially in terms of realism. iRacing and LFS are the only ones that get the closest, yet they are still miles away of what's inevitably possible through computer simulation.

There's something about the combination of your username and your avatar that totally ruins the sexiness of it.

On another note: bye.

Never thought I'd actually buy one (iHate most Apple stuff), but 120GB of space for music, videos and photos for €220 was an offer I could not refuse.



After I let Jibber buy the game first and tell me his experience with it, and being a fan of the original Skate game, I had to buy it. It's the only game I've played for 2 weeks now!

There's one way to get access to the user's geo-location/address though, if you were to have access to the ISPs customer's database and the user has a dynamic IP. Then they are linked.
But then again, ISPs only give access to this information in extreme cases. And not to the average Joe.

Quote from PKS Machina :DSL has it's IP change every time you connect to the net whereas cable has a static IP for the most part.

Whereas in Europe, DSL connections commonly use static IPs and most cable ISPs assign dynamic IPs every time the user connects.

Quote from Takumi_lfs :I still dont get the You'll shit bricks....

It means: "You'll shit your pants so badly, it'll be the size of bricks!" Because yeah, that's what you do if you're inconveniently surprised by something.

Gah, did I just have to explain that? Wow.

Quote from Shotglass :So far so good. But of course the key, the non-standardized part, must be nonstandard in only standardized ways. And also key management must conform to certain standards. In other words standards are being formulated whereby the nonstandard parts, which must conform to certain standards of non-standardization, are also to be handled only in a standardized nonstandard way in order to standardize on the overall non-standardization.

I hope this makes the position clear.

It sure does! :rolleyes:

Yeah it's single. But c'mon! It's sporting adventure colors and adventure texture and everything. Ready to take out an elephant or 5. It basically screams it's masculine. You still want it?
