hi,
I don't know if you've heard about Johnny Lee's Wii-Remote Projects. When I saw it, I asked myself if his Head-tracking could be made usable in LfS - so I just wanted to ask here

http://www.cs.cmu.edu/~johnny/projects/wii/

well CS:S is not a very resource demanding game...

Vista or Vista 64?

with Vista 64bit u should take 4GB RAM (don't know how its in britain, but here in germany u get MDT-6400 2x1GB Kit for 35 Euro ~ 23 pounds)

well on the first screenshot I can't see any problems with the text - but he reports it to be blured...

maybe the driver is set to force some stupid resolution/ refresh rate that isn't really supported by your monitor?

ok guys, I've opened the window and my case to let a bit fresh air in
additionally some Vcore modification and I got down to 13.718s

Yes, you are aboslutely right, i haven´t thought about that, stupid me...

well I loose 2 seconds when running on both cores - so u can see what performance ur idle system is consuming...could be interesting when optimizing there

22.291 on a stock E6750

well it shouldn't take longer than 19 or 20 secs with this^^

I've got 15.062s on my E6750 (prime95-24h-stable clocks (with standard Vcore))

according to my temperatures the program uses only 1 core (and only parts of it)

hello
my comp is
P4 celeron @2.6ghz S478
512mb ram
geforce 6800GT

problem is that on 1024x768 and absolute minimum details I can get max 40fps if noebody's on server
if 2-3 cars came im my FOV or anywhere near me, fps r falling to 12 or 14... (enough for crash)

on 1024x768 and deatails on max fps did never reach number of 10

any idea where's problem?

well ur CPU is crap and ur ram is crap
What OS do u run? check the taskmanager after booting and tell us, how much RAM is in use (so we can see, if u are running not necesarry processes)

well, noone knows
I remember on the games convention 3 years ago or so, there was one computer standing alone on a place where noone realy recognized it (u had to play with mouse, no instructions to people not knowing how to do), last year, there were 10 or so bmw f1 dummy cars where u could sit in and drive lfs (some racing cup from intel I think) - what I want to say is, that LfS gets more and more popular far beyond this community, so it will get a better place for advertisement - and with luck this will be in form of licences to use real cars ingame, who knows

It would be nice if we could have a semi-auto-clutch option or something.
It should be designed for people having no clutch pedal, but wanting the maximum realism possible with that.
So all the semi-auto-clutch does is to help u accelerating in 1st gear, so what is missing to auto-clutch:

- no clutch if u are in false gear (e.g. at 10mph in 2nd or higher)
- no clutch if u lock up the wheels (shouldn't be anyway because only the computer is fast enough to do this if they weren't intentionally locked)
-no clutch when stoping (e.g. for pitstop, a button could perfectly do this)
(-no clutch when shifting - maybe this could spoil the advantages for some people liking the rest of the semi-auto-clutch)

when locking up the wheels the engine should stall (I don't think somebodys that fast on the clutch because you don't want to lock up normaly) - so when braking with locked wheels untill 0mph the engine should be off?

I assume u use keyboard, so you apply full braking power and then u wonder that u cant spinn the wheels?

LFS switches to window on entry if it does not have focus

-> doesn't work with ZoneAlarm (am I right that this means, when I go to view the servers and lfs looses focus it should go to window mode?)

the small ZoneAlarm message that asks for permission to the changed lfs.exe steals focus but isn't displayed due to lfs "overdrawing" it and lfs stays fullscreen

when u spin an AI, they overheat there clutch when accelarating from 0mph - what is "normal", but they don't go carefuly with it afterwards, so they burn it all away...

tya

erm, I went to his profile and tried to send him a mail, but it tells me that this user doesn't want to receive emails - so where should I write to?

I had to change my graphics card, after that I needed to unlock lfs, then I went to patch X30 and had to unlock again, but it sayd all my unlocks have been used (so I had only 1, I didnt play since several weeks???). I typed a wrong PW once, maybe this used an unlock too?

how can I get a new unlock before friday? or is there no way and I have to wait?

yes, LFS got no Option for AA/AF, so u need to set it in ur driver options

Well on the scrennshot where it doesnt show up, you have chosen that the other GTRs must be available, but they arent on ur server - so all correct

They had much luck, in both crashes. If Viso would have been just a few cm more to the right, it would have been his head what scratches the wall for a few meters... But must have been an amazing view for him^^

I'm pretty sure that South City is Live For Speed's take on Monte Carlo...

agreed
licences are very expensive and not needed at all. South City got all you like about monaco, I see no need for more!?

Quote from deggis :

I wonder why the hell it was banned so long? I mean pretty much any law made in the 50s doesn't usually apply in year 2007. When I first heard about this law few years ago that I thought it was a joke.


.

The prohibition dates from 1955, when more than 80 spectators died in a crash during the Le Mans race. [from the link in 1st post]

There was a race in Les Mans where 80 people died in ONE crash???

the small impact with the front right wheel had nearly no effect, the wheels suspension just broke and the car continues its way as if there was nothing

I like watching Hamilton and I'm pretty shure he got the potential to get in one line with Senna and others of the greatest drivers ever.
