ok...that update got me kind of interested again.
instantly started a survival map and started digging...found a cave of which i dont know what to think.

gonna give it a shot anyway...even if fuel consumption would raise by 1 l it would be good...reving that low all the time is kind of against my nature

Quote from ACCAkut :

a friend of mine who is studying automotive engineering once said that the typical N/A car engine, which has the throttle valve relatively close to the inlet ports, is working most efficient at peak torque rpm and ~95% open throttle, which creates a swirl effect. Same reason some modern engines how so called tumbler valves (Subarus, Audi etc idk)

ill give it a shot.
anyway, the way i tried now for this week (never rev above 1700 rpm) did make a difference as well.

fuel usage before: 10,17 l /100km
fuel usage this week: 8,19 l /100km

ill post back again when i have another cycle done with the way mentioned above.

/edit: all calculated at this site: http://www.spritmonitor.de/en/detail/465409.html

in your words that would mean for my car shift at 3,5k rpm...since thats where it has its most torque...seems quite high.

yep yep and yep.

some tvr.

as many of u noticed im pretty much inactive.
i dont play MC at all right now, neither do i have the time to keep the server at a nice state.

so im looking for a person who wants to help adminstrate the server.
requirements are pretty simple:

1. be more active than me
2. be well known to the community/server

the benefits...none really.
well, server op i guess.
but thats about it, cant offer anything since ive got nothing to give.

if anyone is interested anyway, contact me via pm (preferably with age, country and available time to adminstrate the server) and then ill make a decision.

btw, this is my last attempt to keep the server alive.
if this fails as well the server will go offline, since like i said i havent got the time/dedication to administrate it.

well i drive like that this week, and then i go refill...gonna have a result then.
too bad my car has only 5 gears, means i have to go over 2k to go 100 kmh

since my avrg raised from 9,3 l/100 km to 10,1 l/100 km now i try hardcore low rev

i never rev above 1800 rpm...that means a lot of shifting but if its worth it i dont care
usually cruising in the city at 50 kmh at 1400 rpm in fifth.
lets see if its any good.

was much more fun in first person, but anyway:

You can earn about 10 virtual Euros per month if you're fairly active which will offset the monthly membership cost considerably. I'm not sure how exactly that works.

arent u a dev?
no offense, but u should know, no?

where to dl the game itself?

id rather say a lada...but which one

i dont even know what car that is, even when seing it fully

Quote from E.Reiljans :

Boosted, in 2011 there's a fair chance he doesn't has a optical drive. Those are useless and old.

Bunder9999, that was true with windows XP - but not anymore with Windows 7 (specifically I am talking about one activated using Windows Loader. :3

even if so...buy one?!
u get a dvd WRITER for under 10 euros these days...seriously.

never ever use a "copied" windows u downloaded.
it will do more harm than good.
invest those 50 pounds and get a new copy.
just look after ur dvd and ull never buy again (till u go to a new OS).

like this?

ah ok...didnt enable something like that.
just asked for my agreement and then let me in to OC and change fan speed (although i surely wont OC it )

never heard about that...what is that?

i cant figure out how to do so...
rivatuner only shows me settings for my monitor (refresh and color stuff) and i cant get ntune installed.
also, the nvidia control center doesnt seem to offer any option for that.
im puzzled...


//edit: i actually updated graphics drivers again (just did like 2 months ago) and this version does have manual fan control! yay!
so...problem solved
