aaa, so tahts why i flown like that spining like a ball in the air:P. well sadly i'm confessing that i think i caused the pileup. i caught the slipstream of the car in front and he breaked a bit early because there was heavy trafic in the hairpin, and i couldnt react that fast, and i bumpd him. he got away but i spun there causing the pileup. totaly my fault, i should have been more carefull. then i flawn into the air because of makinen witch i dont blaim. anyway the hole race for me was a screw up thats why i'm not mad i only got to train 2 h before h-l sending was closing so (and yea i'm also sick with 39d fever...). in fact whats evin wors is that my college got a "MP replay stash out of space" error and disconected while he was leading in the 1st lap...anyway, i wanna say sorry for my incompetence of this race and hope that i'll make a mence next time, although rac its new to me like fo8 was but there's a first time for everything right?

the only reason to the situation in the US (not the only state but most important) is the fear. a state that indirectly impose fear to the people has to come with something for the scared people to rely on and feel safe, right? well they found the perfect solution! ofers safety and brings a profit too! guns. and a mass that is scared doesent have any solution but to cope with it. in almoast all the countries weapons exist and you can buy them (rather easaly...get a permit, be at least 18 and if ur mentaly stabil your set) but you dont see people shooting eachother about on the streets, do you? but in america turns out that's a daily basis thing, and its perfectly normal when ur scared. i rather dont get to deep into this, at first i didnt even want to make this post so it wouldn't start a disscution because its no use....so plz take it as it is my opinion that doesent need comments...

btw, not sure if any1 knows but 1 romanian lost his life in this massacre too. he was a teacher and he was killed while he was trying to protect his students witch he succeded to do. he stand by the door blocking it while all the studens got out by the window. he got shoot through the door.

Quote from LFSn00b :

Here's a little guide to my cockpit

i understod 4 words from that ) omg box, food, pedals and wire

here is mine...cheap, easy to make, very practical and (kinda) good lookin' (momo wheel btw...)

i think it would be nice and useful to have kerbs beside the other objects. most useful for autocross, to help determin better the turn in front and negociate it properly...because lines or barriers does not do the trick it will also be very useful on other tracks .. to help determine a new corner for example... and i dont think it would be very dificult to implement this. 2 or 3 angle variasions, solid object that will be fixd into the ground.

it is a personal opinion though...

yea wellif he managed to hold up 18laps he should however hold another 2 but i guess mooney had shown us that hope dies last and he managed to grab that oportunity and took the win, way to go! (both rudi and bawbag).

as for me, i'll say this was indeed the most intense race of all, luckly though it wasen't too long so i didn't swet that much (i sweted but not that much ). few mistakes here and there none of them very ugly, loads of 2 wheel driving , in total i think 15 seconds on 2 wheels!...managed to grab 6th place in the end...it was good fun

the incorect position display it's very anoying...plus u cant really tell witch car is on witch position...here we need a comentator yes

i have a problem with the pedals to in lfs and i'm useing v2. didnt post this earlyer because i was uncertain if the pedals wore malfunctioning or its because lfs but now i'm sure. if i hold the gas pedal at half size for example or the break when i'm moveing the indicator just jumps up and down if like my pot is going crazy but the speed is steady and in windows logitech driver when i do the same thing it doesent jump at all. when i am stoped on the other hand this doesent happen anymore. momo wheel, custom build pedals.

Quote from Gunn :

The Momo only properly recognises 10k Ohm resistance pots. I put 250K pots and 100k pots in one of my Momos and they still only used a fraction of the range as if the Momo can only handle 10k. I tried calibrating the pots properly but never could use their full range. I believe that only 10k pots can be used with this hardware because I gave up and installed 10k pots (not the default ones either) and all was well again.

well i mentioned in my 1st post that i use 10k pots. before i was useing 100K pots and yes the travel distance was way shorter ..i was only useing half of the pedals travel (on windows controller travel indicator). so 10k pots work best but in my case induce a preaty big deadzone

well the problem ins't resolved but i'm kind of used to it now the pedals are conected through the momo's PCB board but i cant set the distance to be just like on the momo pedals...i tryed dxtweak and dxview but i couldnt tweak anything :P in lfs it is set to lock calibration but its a matter of windows and not lfs. i mean logitech momo thing...with that autocalibration...everytime i plugin the wheel or the adaptor it recalibrates. (so i have to push all axes from min to max. anyway thx all for the help, also the folks over rsc dint found a easy efective solution (btw i made a little movie over there to show the exact problem if u think it will be any help go check it out, thread name si the same).

very nice to see that this kind of leagues are starting to come true! its a very good ideea and promising race for demo racers! i hope for the best! only one think bothers me...the object or wall hit results in a penalty, how exactly would u know if someone did hit anything? u cant monitor all the racers at all times. and also i think is unnecessary to have these penalties...hit another car or not respecting the flags, cutting the pit line and drive over the pitlimit yes , but hot-lap penalties in a race its a bit too far in my opinion.

other then that, best of luck to the event and racers ...and i think we hope to see this more often

heh, this is me in the 1st pic. actualy finishing my stint on the 24h moe race at razvan's place :P 2nd. me and my gf and 3d, well... me and the date should explain it :P

that is the art of skinning DrFred...modify save, modify save, until u have a perfect fit. if u want a detaild good skin you have to do this and it will cost you most of the time i was panicd to at first with this, but belive me after a while u get used to it.

i dont know how to zoom in without the menu :P

he just told you...4,5,6,7 these are the keys u zoom with withouth the menu nice layout btw. (u should make it on the kyoto to be evin more realistic, but yea...its kind'of hard):P

stupid question, but...: why is that? (not an usual thing...)

i have a full home-made racing sim (except the wheel)witch means h-shifter 6+1 gears with a handbreak and a pair of 3 pedals upside down just like in a real car. acceleration and break is connected to momo racing black wheel and the clutch to another wheel. the problem i have is with the gas and break. i am useing 10k pots just like in momo, wierd just like my momo original pedals. they work great, but its just one problem that is bugging me. there are 2 gaps at each pedal: 1 small gap at the begining of the pedal travel and a big one at the end. the pedal is traveling more then it shows on the screen. of course i ajusted the pedal travel mecanicly but after a recalibration the same thing is happening and its getting smaller and smaller...its just like a default deadzone. i tryed different pot positions (the pots i have travel is about 300degrees witch is long) if i set them to start at the begining, after a recalibration in windows its starting moveing at half of pedal travel, and at the end there is not enough movement in windows. so there is a portion that allows that full travel but implement the gaps too. i made a drawing to try and explain better. hope u can help me out, i dont know what to do anymore.

thx in advance

maybe...nvidia and ati were allways diffrent maybe some1 who has an ati radeon (preferably old:P) can give us a status?

Quote from SparkyDave :

I use "ATI Tray tools" a little app that lets me do all sorts of things with the GFX I have this set to "max quality" this gives me full AA and AF and I have never had the prob you describe above, worth a try?

Hope this helps .

SD.

i had att until 4 days ago...and the problems appeard 1 week or so...but it's worth a try, i'll see.

@Joseracer, Well my problem is that i want and need to minimize to desktop...(for starting/stoping winamp, TS, so on) so i dont think the first option would help. And the second i tryd to change the resolution but not with Shift+, i changed to the lowest...then back to max but didnt helpd (but strangly enough 1 time workd). Although..i wil try the Shift+'s and the Att.

Edit: uh....i went to try the solutions but didnt work i tryd Shift+F9 -640x480 and then Shift+F12 1024x768 but nothing). I installd Ati Tray Tools again...i set it to max qulity...and it did the same nothing changed
Darn, its soooo anoying. Without the aa/as lfs looks like an old game runing on a P II.

Quote from Davo :

You don't happen to own an ATi card? It's some issue with the drivers.

uh, i do one a radeon 9600series (256mb) . but i have the latest drivers and before i upgraded i had late dec 06 and it did the same, but this started happening only a week ago when i didnt change nothing (i didnt changed the drivers and then it started happening, i had the drivers for sometime, and one day just did this and didnt stop since then)

I allready posted this thread on Bugs-Track and ask for some1 to move it but since no1 bothers and i am running out of time here it goes.(u can delete the hole thread btw-from bugs-tracks)
I have a big problem with antialising and antistropic. look at the images below. It happens when i minimize lfs to windows and then i bring it back...its like it looses aa and as ... i set the video card to full qulity but i dont understand why its doing this...it didnt do this before. any opinions?

(1st is before i click on some windows task, and second is after i go back in lfs. if u dont see any differance, copy the images and then scroll quick through them: back, forth, back,forth, so on, u will see)
i normaly play fullscreen, where it makes the same thing.

truly sorry for being late, we had our problems.

Prodrive #21 is in.

1 thing though....when the servers went down today, we obviously all lost our cars...im just sayng i only have 6000E a uf1 (lost the fxo for xx'th time) and i own allready money to people for same reason...how am i supose to get a better car then a fxo? plus lately although my connection is perfect(100kb/s min) i get timed out more frequent then before...donno whats the prob.

So i donno if it posible but i would really really like a refound for the fxo lost in the power cut...for the others i dont complain.

Quote from Rooble :

The story is as follows (in short)

A user by the name of Tiger something or another wanted money from a fellow team mate of mine, i disagreed (right or wrong I'm not sure) and told him not to pay him. The user by the name of Tiger then started hurling insults at me along the lines of 'f-ing bitch' and 'stfu its not my concern'. So I told him not to speak to me like that because its unacceptable.

Soon to follow MaxH pointed out that I shouldn't tell everyone how to run 'our' server (Whatever that meant?) And that If I didn't 'stfu' id see a ban coming my way shortly.

I only questioned the fact that he refused to deal with Tiger and solely focused on me with the intention of banning me. Very biased might I add, but o well I'm not at loss.


I feel ashamed that Ive even posted this to be completly honest, I now feel petty but very annoyed at the same time o well like i said not my loss

omg, dude are u out of ur mind? now really...when in the world i calld u "bitch"? in fact i didnt use that word for a loong time. i only told u why i wanted ur teammate to pay me and to stay out of it because u didnt know what happend and u jumpd all over and asking who am i to request money. i was talking u or mate not with u so i dont know how it is my fault. i flew 20 seconds(really) because of ur teammate, he bumpd mewhile i was payng the toolboth cauzing me to block the booth, then unpacient he started pushing until lfs went nuts and throw me 999m in the air then bound back at 800m then 500 and so on until i stopd in a fence...it was verry funny really i lmao...but it was unexceptable. i askd him 3 times to pay me a respectable 400Euros..no answers...onyl u were angry with me.after that i sad last time pay that money or ill report this...because i got 2 witnesses who also claimnd him to pay me... then u started the atitude with max witch wasent in a good mood...u WERE haveing an atitude.

just to make things straight i dont know ehre u camed up with me insulting u in anyway the telling u to shut up because it doesent concern u, its not ur case. maybe u read thru lines or something.i was rather calm at that time so...i didnt have a reason to insult u. but if u still want to belive i calld u "Bitch" go ahead.

btw after u got banned ur teammate was a good, responsible guy and payd me that annoubt of money.

i'm glad u got over it now lets end this discusion, insted hope that i or others come up with solutions soon.
