Final Entry



1280 x 830

Cheers.

Whaaaat? Look who is back, I think I haven't seen you a year or so. Nice to see you back!

Final entry for now.




Original

Great skin, kiste. Something new and fresh at least, since a long time for L4P.

Quote from Bmxtwins :

you can't change the textures, lfs ingame shots only.

Yes, you can! Photoshop the textures yourself so that they look good. Nobody said anything about using external images.

Very nice work, awesome. Though, I see some minor mistakes, but I guess it doesn't matter, edit is still great.

Probably not, but have to see what Taavi thinks about this. But in my opinion it's like using external images, same thing, it's not you who draws or brushes the background or car, it's just copy/pasting car on to another background.
But then again, Taavi might have thought this different, he'll answer as soon as he reads, I guess.

[Audi TT], I don't think your entry is valid, it's same thing what Jimmy Lemon did. You used another LFS screen shot from which you copy/pasted the gravel onto this picture, meaning, that you used an external image. You didn't brush or draw the gravel and asphalt yourself. From what Taavi said before to Jimmy Lemon, this shouldn't be valid also.

Quote from Jimmy_Lemon :

Not sure if this counts, havent read the rules properly.

Its rubbish anyway, just made it in 5 mins messing around.
Didn't have time to put it in a actual in game picture.

Final entry

Well, to make this you had to use at least 2 images, one which isn't a RAC image. From my point of view it's not valid, since using other LFS pictures that don't belong to the theme also kinda counts as external images, it's like using other unrelated material, but not sure though, maybe it isn't. We have to see what Taavi thinks, he is the one who made this rounds rules, he will know better.

No way, this is very nice, Taavi. Better than your RB4 entry. Reminds me Lynce's edits.

Quote from hanzime :

...

Chill out! First of all, when something is not clear, you ask! You ask before you make the edit, so don't blame me about that, it's your own fault that you spend so much time and now you are complaining how much you didn't understand anything from the rules.
Secondly, previous round rules were different, quote from previous round rules:

Quote :

Make an edit showcasing Live For Speed car: RB4. The point is to show the best of RB4. In which way? That is up to you! It can also be different than the examples given below, the idea is up to you. External images are allowed to be used.

The Competition rules are ALWAYS there, I never change them, I copy/paste them to each round, but round rules tend to be changed, since the winner makes them up, not me, I only write what is asked for this round. And since today, nobody has ever had a problem with that, because if I recall correctly, it has been done the same way before and there were no confusion, but I apologize if I wasn't clear enough.

And I don't care if you picture is here or not, I never delete any pictures from the competition entry topic, so it can be here as long as you want, but it will only not be in the voting thread.

And I hope it's clear now for everyone "External images are not allowed to be used!" And I will probably not delete it from the "main" rules, because I will forget to post it next competition and then again something won't be clear.


BTW, FireMike & Hector - Awesome entries!

Quote from hanzime :

ok.. first attempt.. don't know if it will be final ..
External image used :

Your entry is not valid, it's not allowed to use external images as it says in THIS rounds rules.

The rules below round rules are in general, what most of the rounds will have. But round rules are more important and you should always read round rules to see if anything has changed.

I don't think there was a need to delete the external image rule from the "general" rules, since I thought everyone would get that.

Nice, I liked it a lot. Good job!

Updated after Round #87.

This rounds theme is... "Car Showcase: RAC "

Round rules: (made by Taavi(EST), these will not be changed)
Make an edit showcasing Live For Speed car: RAC. The point is to show the best of RAC. In which way? That is up to you! It can also be different than the examples given below, the idea is up to you. External images are not allowed to be used.

Competition rules:

• When you have finished your picture and want to enter it into the competition, please write 'Final Entry' in the relevant post.
  

• You must provide a preview picture (no bigger than 400 x 400 pixels) as well as the High Resolution picture. (The preview picture does not have to be exactly 400 x 400 pixels - it can be smaller to maintain the correct aspect ratio [for example, 400 x 300 pixels])
  

• No renders, old images or VOB MODS to be used.
  

• You may incorporate external non-LFS images into your work, but you MUST give a link to any images used.
  

• You MUST NOT use any LFS screenshot material that does not belong to you. (You are not even allowed to ask others to take a picture for you etc., everything has to be done by you.)*
  

• During the voting, you are FORBIDDEN to get more votes in an unfair way. (Asking your team members, friends etc. to vote for you.) If I find out, your image will be removed from the voting and you will not be allowed to take part in the competition. (For how long, that is to be decided by me.)
  

• All pictures MUST be uploaded to LFSForum.net, so basically in the attachments. (Other uploading websites are not allowed to be used.) (This is because of the fact, that after some time, the other websites get shut down and pictures in hall of fame or old threads disappear and we can never get to see them again..
  

• The winner of the round should explain how he made his edit. This is not a MUST rule, but it would be great for the beginners and also others to learn and see new things. (This means, giving 2-4 images of the steps, the raw screenshot etc. telling the techniques and tools used.)
  

• Any entries that will be ignoring 1 or more rules listed above, will not be accepted.
  
  

* If these rules are ignored, then the person might be forbidden to take participation in the competition for some time.

Anyone is allowed to post their pictures and take participation in the competition as long as the rules are obeyed.

Competition closes on THURSDAY, 15.12.2011. at 20:00 GMT.



BONUS *FUN* RULES:

- You must obey the rules
- No b*tching/moaning/arguing

Have fun and good luck! Feel free to discuss the topic, images or ask questions.

Voting ended!
Congratulations to Taavi(EST) for winning LFS Photomode Competition #87. I will be waiting for a PM from you with the next theme, cars & tracks.

ATTENTION! As you already know, due to quite many entries, I decided to make 2 rounds of voting this time. This is the 2nd round of the voting, where you can see TOP5 (Maybe more if there are more than one edit for 5th place with same amount of votes) edits with most votes from the 1st round from each poll, poll #1 and poll #2. Rules for this round is the same as we usually have, meaning you've only got 1 vote you can use.



This weeks theme was... "Car Showcase: RB4".

Voting rules:
*You have one votes that you can use.
*You can vote for anyone, but not yourself. (The votes where people vote for themselves will not be counted, but deleted at the end of the voting.)
*Getting more votes in an unfair way (asking others to vote four your picture etc.) is NOT allowed. (If I find out, you won't be able to participate in the competition anymore for some time and also your image will be deleted from the voting.)

The winner will be the person with the most votes.

5. wody21
6. BMWE30M3
7. [Audi TT]

lthough DK USA has the same amount of votes as others, which would let him pass to the next round, he voted for himself, meaning that -1 vote and he actually has none votes. (Just cleared it up for others, if needed.)

Quote from Bmxtwins :

andro, wrong preview picture for me i believe.

Nope, I posted the one you posted last: http://www.lfsforum.net/showthread.php?p=1650168#post1650168

ATTENTION! There are 2 voting threads for this round, second voting thread can be seen here: Click! (Each voting thread includes 11 edits! This is because maximum choices for poll is 20, but we've got 22 entries for this round.)
Voting rules have also been changed for this round. You've got 2 votes, one vote for voting thread #1 and one for voting thread #2. Top 5 images from each thread will pass to the next round voting. If there won't be at least 5 pictures having at least 1 vote, then only those pictures that got at least one vote will get to the next round. That means, there will be 2 voting rounds because of so many entries.

Although, some of the edits didn't apply to some of the rules, I decided to give everyone a chance and make 2 rounds of voting instead of one. I think it will be more interesting because of so many entries.
Pictures where posted in a different order than they were posted. All the odd number of entries were posted in voting thread #1, meaning entries 1,3,5,7 etc., but all the even numbered entries were posted in voting thread #2, meaning 2,4,6,8 etc.

Okay, competition closed. I will make the voting tomorrow.

Yes, still 3h to enter.

Hey,
Not sure if this was asked before, but I am obviously not going to read the whole thread to check it, but I have problem with airio.

The problem is that it keeps restarting, turning off, turning on by itself whenever it wants. We have an airio which is set up by 500servers for our team server. Via control panel it always says that airio is online and working, although that's not always the truth in server. It may turn on and work for 30min, then turn off and be off for some time, the time differs each time and then it just turns on again by itself at some point. Restarting it doesn't help, it just turns off immediately right after manual restarting.

Maybe there is some file set up incorrectly or something, anyone has any idea?

BTW, I just checked, it also says "Unknown ISP pocket" in airio log and closes connection right after that. I checked it with another airio, so it seems it's actually servers' problem.

Oh, lol. I didn't use it!
I used it for a previous edit, which turned out bad, so I never posted it. And now I automatically posted that external image, but for this edit I only used the rims. Thanks, changed post!
