IMO tracks arnt the problem, to me it's just another obstical, there shouldn't be alot of feelings for a track other the weather you like it or not. Other then tracks like Monaco, you can make a pass anywhere, it's just the cars, drivers and media these days.

The cars are made to be quick around a track but as soon as you tuck behind another, there goes the performance to be able to get close.

Then you have super quick robot drivers that will pass only when it's 100% clear or may not even choose to at all.

Then you have the media flame or ruin a driver for making a mistake for taking out someone for giving a pass a go.

I could talk about how the old drivers used to overtake often and give a good race but that's unfair, their cars could run closer, and there wasn't much Internet forums and media that would kill drivers. But the most recent I could say was Montoya or crashtoya as some mr. Think they know it alls would say. That driver always made a move, and an example from the upcomming race , Spa, I'm sure alot saw that pass live on michael at the bus stop. Plus plenty more.

But....... You have everyone down you neck these days to drive like a robot and you have cars that deny the oppitunity to make a pass... That's all just my opinion.

Looking at pictures of your coins (wow i am bored), i noticed you have pretty flashy coins.

In australia, we have 5cents, 10c, 20c, 50c, $1, $2



Our notes are $5, 10, 20, 50, 100.. they are pretty colourful.

How much would it cost to project a car like that? V10, BMW shell, all sparkling too.

Quote from Amynue :Not as soon as you think. Also whats the point of waiting for Scirocco, tyre physics is much more important now! We didn't had so big change in physics engine in years.

I agree! +1

Yes, those resolutions are correct.

What was happening was my 22" was going from 1680x1050 down to 1440x900 when i tried to mimic the 22".

Slow and steady, wins the race!

I guess that means alot more now, after everything, new games released, new and groundbreaking features from other simulators. We have GT5 comming very soon, iRacing making a big impact, Forza 3, apparently the new NFS which should be more simulation-happy. The big corps have rushed and tried to over-do it to make the money they want, and did it in short periods of time.

But over here in this world, LFS abuses and takes as much time needed to make something amazing, and never failing, i could say because of its progress speed, LFS really is a much better simulation then any other, from 3 developers.

..and we arnt even in beta stages, for the second phase.

Big congratulations to the Developers, Scawen, Eric, Victor!

Yeh what i have done now, is im in extended mode, and in LFS you can choose which monitor you want to use for LFS only which is great so when i click LFS, this main screen stays how it is (in windows) and the 2nd screen is on LFS, which is even better for me IMO...

Only problem now is sound works for the main, but not lfs on the other screen :S.. Does that make any sence? Because its not working.

Edit: Problem solved, everything works great! Thanks for the help!

Dual montor problem

This is rather a weird problem, and im thinking it might have something to do with my PC.

I recently made a cockpit out of wood which looks like shit, but its good enough for the moment. I have a 19'' screen on it, and i have a 22'' screen as my main screen. What i want to do is to mimic or clone the main screen, onto my cockpit screen for LFS. Seems simple right?

The problem is, it works, but when i clone the 22" screen onto the 19" screen (and ive tried vice versa), the 22" screen only has the same resolution as the 19" and it looks very weird. Is there anyway to make it have seperate resolutions?

The reason why i think it may have something to do with my PC, is because i tried out my sisters laptop, and another laptop and it works fine, no problem what so ever, and the laptops even have a pop up when i plug it in saying what i would like to do (mimic/extend etc). My computer does nothing, and when i try to mimic/clone, it does the problem above.

Both laptops were running Vista 32bit, just like my computer.

My graphics card is an nVidia 9500GT and i have the latest drivers and software. Ive tried doing this btw, via display settings in windows, and display settings in the nVidia CP.

Is there anyway to fix this or would i need to get the same size screen?

Buying a new cockpit (help + opinions)
aoun
S3 licensed
I searched the other threads reguarding this, but they are afew years old, or the other one on the first page isnt quite what im asking..

Im after a new cockpit as im moving soon and will have more space in my room for a rig with the max length of 1.8m (1800mm/180cm).

My budget is roughly $500 AUD but will go abit higher if needed(say MAX if its worth it, 600-750AUD), and i just need some opinions on what cockpits are good for around that price..

500 AUD is roughly (give take 5-10):

300 EUR
250 GBP
417 USD

So what would be the best for that range?

Ive seen the Hyper Stimulator and ive used one before and quite happy with it, but theres no room for the G25 Shifter, unless i change it around abit.

Quote from amp88 :some Aboriginals being drunk, violent, aggressive etc.

You got it wrong mate, the majority i know, are! Racial or not, im talking from my experience! Out of the Aboriginal people i know, its the MINOR minority that are just regular. Ive even gotten into fights because of Aboriginals asking for money every time you walk past..

Thats not racial, me saying the majority IVE SEEN, are drunk, violent and agro, its my own experience, weather people think its racial or not.

Ive learnt alot about the Aboriginal culture, after all, my closest and best friend for the last 14 years is aboriginal.

I just got my computer fixed today after a very long time.

Ive had an iPhone for a good month now but have been using our other laptop to sync songs, videos, ringtones, apps etc.

Now i cant sync anything with my new computer or everything will get deleted from my phone first.

Is there anyway to transfer data from the phone to itunes?

Quote from durbster :

What really struck me about it all was how happy the tourist board are to use Aboriginal imagery on their adverts and yet, you land in Sydney and there isn't a hint of Aboriginal culture to be seen.

You haven't seen Sydney then mate!

When you read all these posts, it makes you think really how decent people are in this world. Most people have said health etc, aswell as things they value, such as cars and pc's etc. Material or not, it shoes that people are positive and decent minded, rather then bad things in life.

Good stuff people!
