You can try putting it in the 'sound' folder, but it won't make a difference.

You'll need to convert the .raw file into a .wav file and then place it in the 'engine' folder.

Once in game, press Shift+A, a load of sliders will appear on the right hand side, find the 'Dump Valve' sliders (about halfway down), click on the 'L' beside those sliders and load the dumpvalve.wav file.

Attached a screenshot just incase that wasn't too clear.

Quote from BlueFlame :Does "Location : Soham" mean nothing to you?

Or clicking the link. Hell even the link url has a clue in it.

Fresh install of Windows, fresh wallpaper.

Anyone from Norfolk might know what factory it is (Tristan isn't far from it I don't think).

Back in Plymouth I was on a Virgin 2mb cable, but now living out in the sticks we're limited to ADSL. Went for o2/Be as they were cheapest and so far so good. The only thing that's bad is the modem/router combo, especially for wireless.

They told us the maximum connection we'd get is 1.5mb and after a few 'speedtests' it's at around 2.5mb, which I can't complain with. No download limits and no peak time capping etc. I think it's something like £12 a month, with the first 2 months free.

Quote from danowat :Not a big fan of "tuners", but, looks tasty....

Comparing them to the same car in Forza 2... Wow, looks amazing.

Forza 3 is looking to be something special. Roll on October.

Double post, meh.

Great racing tonight, had a good laugh. Definately up for more some time.

Just need a few more people and it will be even better.

I should have a better connection tonight. I've deprived the PC of the ethernet cable and let the Xbox have a turn.

No idea why the wireless was playing up last night on the Xbox, its been fine ever since i've been using it.

Quote from batteryy :and with 4200 you can get lost n damned,trials hd and some gh songs instead of just one game

I bought another 4200 when TLAD came out, the rest of the points then I bought all of the Forza 2 DLC, PGR4 content and some other little things that I don't remember.

This time I bought Trials HD, a few car packs for TDU and i've still got just under 2k points left over.

Edit: 248 attempts, 23 minutes later and I finally got to the end of that King of the Hill level.

Recently gave Vray a go and attached is my first half decent attempt. Still need to get my head around materials and lighting, but it's getting there.

Christ, I paid £35 for 4200 on Monday. Seems quite expensive but you can get enough for your money. Considering a new game costs roughly the same depending on how new it is.

Quote from batteryy :yeah, most of the normal game demos are around 1gb
btw how much does it cost?(in microsoft points)

1200. I think it's a little bit too much but it's still great fun. Much better than a lot of the crap on Arcade which is the same price.

Surely Microshite could add some sort of group feature to the friends list. Would come in helpful for those with loads of friends.

Quote from danowat :Looks awesome untill you try and do it and end up wanting to eat your controller after 300 attempts!

Yeah i'll be on between 5-6pm.

What about tracks? Does everyone have the DLC tracks (and cars for that matter)?

Quote from danowat :
Any chance we could race stock models?, how about someone comes up with some limits, i.e. the total car can't cost more than £30,000, has to have less than 300bhp, and be RWD, only run sport tyres etc etc, something like that?.

my GT is Danowat32 if some of you don't have it.

When you say the car can't cost more than 30k, does that include upgrades?

I was thinking more along the lines of minimal engine upgrades, more handling upgrades.

I'll add you on XBL in a little while.

The other thing we could try is my little idea a little way up this page. Attached are the specs of the three cars I tried out. As you'll see they don't have many engine mods, they're not turbo'd and they're all light and grippy. One FWD, one RWD and one MR. All Honda's (no i'm not a fanboy, they just seem to be great handling cars).

Try them out and see what you think.

Quote from obsolum :Yeah, I thought you were having issues. You kept going offline and then coming back online again and again and again...

The race at Laguna Seca was great, really close finish there For the one at Road Atlanta I had forgotten to load my setup for that track, and the gears were too short as you probably noticed on the straight. It could have been as close as Laguna Seca if I'd loaded the right setup, I think.

I wasn't using different setups for each track. All I did was change the braking balance and pressure, and stiffen the suspension up a bit. I'm not bright enough to get my head around all the other things so I tend not to mess with them.

Providing i'm still not having problems (damn wireless), i'll be up for some more racing tonight. Be good if more people joined in, the AI aren't much fun.

The best we can get out in the sticks, even though we were told the best we'd get is 1.5mb. It's reliable so I can't complain.

Well the two (and a half) races were fun while they lasted. Now my Xbox has decided to play silly buggers and I can't get back online.

Is it alright to add you both obsolum and Dajmin? Both gamertags are the same as on here right?

I think when you either sell a car on auction or gift a car with a saved setup, it goes with the car. Not 100% sure on that though.

If not, once one gets made, i'll post it up and everyone can make the setup and then use it. I'm sure you'd tell if someone was using something different.

It wouldn't be the end of the world if everyone used different setups, i'm just after a bit of equal racing with better than standard cars.

A, B or C class racing is all good.

I've been thinking about sorting out some cars that are slightly tuned that will be made fixed. I've tested out 3 cars so far, but need some more people to test them out. If you're interested, drop me a PM and i'll send the details of the cars.

If anyone is good at making setups, i'd be grateful with some help at making at setup that everyone could use to make it more even racing.

Quote from Greboth :I'll add you in a few mins but:

Yup thats the one If you want it, gift me the car (mentioned above: '04 Evo VIII GSR) and ill gift it back with the paint job.

Accepted the friend request, and the Evo has been gifted.

Looking forward to seeing how this paintjob will look.

Is it the crazy green Norris Motorsports paintjob, Greboth?

By the way, feel free to add me on XBL. It'd be good to race against some LFS'ers. Gamertag is the same as on here, beefyman666.

Quote from Deutschland2007 :I thought distance and so on wouldn´t be deleted? It never has.

Correct. Only PB's get deleted.

Anyway, congrats Failure on the (nearly) 1000000km, that takes some doing even if a lot was done on oval.
