Quote from szyszek :As the title says, I've just about had it. For some reason people think that you can only:

- race the GTR at either BL GP or AS NAT
- race the BF1 on either the oval or BL GP
- you can only drift with the LFR cars
- FOX can only be used at SO Classic.


Practically any time I go to an empty server to choose a different combo (let's say F08 @ Fe black, or AS Historic) I end up racing alone for 30 minutes waiting for someone to join.

Lately I found myself racing at the demo servers, because that's the only place where I can race the GTT with people (race, not drift). I'm HUGELY fed up with this.... sorry, but why are people so boring? Or afraid of new combos?


Come to think of it I'd rather play minesweeper than have another lap at as nat with the gtrs.

so true that it hurts

im no expert but an open port is only dangerous if a service is running in that port, specificly a service that can be exploited, i dont think theres any danger of forwarding a port to your pc and even so lfs uses some very high port numbers.

i suggest you have him download the game from www.liveforspeed.net again or you can send him the file, but if that one is missing i wonder what else is, the file is named "hmn.hmn" and is in lfs/data/hmn, also why did you make 3 diferent posts if you can ask questions on either one?

heh i saw that episode with the gt4 comparison, funny stuff, he complained the most about being afraid to crash the car if he tried to do as in gt4, i dont remember but i think he was a good 10seconds slower IRL. he also said the corkscrew is scary as hell hehe

yeah personally i had only tried slackware a long time ago and a few months ago i hoped in the ubuntu dapper thing to try out xgl/compiz, i like it but im the first to say that its not snappy as my xp is, but i dont have a clean install as i had tested for a few months and its taking up like 6gb of space but its full of dev files and not really needed stuff unless you plan to build some stuff from source. i also tried gentoo but it seemed a bit too complicated for the normal user, having to build stuff is cool but its slow and prebuilt packages are just easier to use for the average user, ill try FC if i get an iso of that, but as it is i think im addicted to wobbly things

yeah rsc is soooo painfully slow, i like the avatars i think it gives a lil touch to the users profile, but its not that bad as it is and it surely takes some load of the host.

try simple track, i get about the same fps in windows and wine. maybe 10fps less for wine if much.

lol indeed so it seems, .run files are to be used in the command line normally by using "sh" but if you want to install 3d drivers then there are alot of howto's, nvidia drivers are available in synaptic, dunno about ati, anyway nvidia howto here and ati howto here
these are for ubuntu breezy but they are useful for dapper aswell as i think there are some links in there.

wine doesnt work as good as cvscedega for me, in linux lfs will be locked even if you unlock from windows. good howto here
after that you should need to change some options as lfs' cars show up transparent and stuff, i added this to my cvscedega config file:
;; LFS
[AppDefaults\\LFS.exe\\d3dgl]
"PixelShaders" = "Y"
"NV_VAR" = "Y"
"ClipSpaceFix" = "N"

that pic you posted shows 3 X axis, something is clearly wrong there, you should have X Y and Z or RZ dunno about that particular model, i own a gameport ms ff and i use no drivers also just the autodetect stuff from xp, as it is a USB wheel maybe you should try other ports.three X axis cant be a good sign so its not going to work that way, also combined pedals arent the best choice.

would be really cool if the weather was modeled according to real time weather from known locations.

this has been like this since s1 if i remember, dunno if it was like this in the demo and it will stay like this until weather/time changes and proper lighting later on i guess.

so you got a celeron processor, onboard sound and a pci gfx card, seriously what did you expect? it prolly should give more fps but it is a celeron and this is most likely due to drivers or windows thing than lfs' fault, check updated drivers for mobo, sound, gfx, ide drivers and all of those, and try to put the windows factor apart by formatting or cleaning up the hd.
