I think he meant over the connection list. When you click on a name and it appears at the beginning of your message without typing it.

Yeah OK but I still think it's unnecessary chatting and clicking if otherwise somebody would allow others to get his set.

Hi!

Hmm OK, I will see :P

My suggestions:

1. IMO for problem #3 a better solution would be to have an option to allow all other drivers to download your set when you are online on a server without asking it. It would save a lot of list searching for fast guys and a lot of unnecessary chatting during races.
(And what you mean by "full racer name" by the way? I think nobody would say: "Hi [!NF]Csimpok may I try your set?"... Usually they say Csim or something short )
2. On a server with 48 people even with blocked messages it's very disturbing to see lots of "x left the pits", "y joined the spectators", "z disconnected", "a timed out", "b was banned" etc...messages, so I suggest an option to fully block ALL! messages except host messages.

Grats for patch, it works great and online play seems to be much much smoother than before (less lag for example).

The lfsworld wr-s won't be reseted for the cars which have added weight now? (For example xrt, fzr,...)

We were standing at the start of a race and a lot of people went to spectate and it said: "You weren't moving for 10 seconds"...

I see you like this race very much . Why don't you try youtube?

I don't want to give hints to anybody, but I desperately need a G25 wheel

Quote from PLAYLIFE :

I can confirm that with my old computer (Sempron 2200+) the race became a slide show with 20 AI selected. With my new comp (after the price drop not very expensive Athlon x2 4800+) 20 AI cars is no problem. I think it might do 28 AI easily in fact.

Due to lack of dual core support you should get the same performance with an A64 3800+ which is maybe only 2 times as fast as the Sempron 2200+.

The problem is still the same: The delay between the last red and the green lights doesn't differ. And it's the same as the delay between the red lights. (1 sec maybe). At least for me...

edit: Now it seems to work OK... interesting.

Quote from banshee56 :

Would it be difficult to change it so that the red light still come on at the same intervals, but they all stay on for some random amount of time (or at least one of a few different set intervals, chosen randomly)?

I had the same feeling that the time from red to green is the same although I expected it to change. Or even if it changes the difference between the different timings is way too small .

For me it was this one:

Thanks for hi-res tracks, they look great now

Anyway I have the feeling that a mouse is better suited for controlling a car and you can see lots of mouse drivers pretty close to wr's at some tracks (mainly with slower cars though).

But I would recommend a wheel, a used Momo from Ebay won't empty your bank account IMO

Driving a car with a Joystick?
Why don't you look for a flight sim fan who flies his Boeing with a wheel and change controllers?

I haven't had internet because of provider problem since yesterday afternoon until now...

I sometimes run (or nowadays rather only walk for 30-45 minutes before longer races (endurance or championship races) to breath some fresh air and to be mentally relaxed cos it helps me concentrating for longer periods. (I use the same before exams.)

If you have problems or aches because of sitting all day, try swimming.

Poll

Quote from biggie :

No love for #8 or #7 so far? I think these sound pretty decent too and should be "fairly easy" to implement.

About #3: if I had known before that everyone digs it so much, I'd have noted exactly how I did it. Unfortunately I can't seem to reproduce it anymore (originating from the base sound)

Sound 7 and 8 has kind of "jet" feeling because of the gearwhine which makes them quite similar to the actual sounds in U36 patch. But in Sound 3 the engine sound (which is quite good there) dominates therefore it sounds like a car
So maybe conclusion is that gearwhine in current version is a bit exaggerated.

Wow, sound 7 and rather sound 3 sounds great.

It works fine for me in 32 bit mode.

Quote from AndroidXP :

What you mean is the "bump" sound generated by fast tyre/suspension impacts. We definitely need those some time (they don't exist at all yet, as far as I can tell), but I don't think they're crucial for patch V

I mean that in real life when you go on the curbs with two tyres you hear a constant booming/buzzing sound until you go off from it because of the rough surface of the curbs. If you understand what I mean...

What about making the sound when you hit the curbs much stronger? In real life you can hear the curbs even in a GTR-like car, not to mention GTI and the others.

I know its not that easy to do it but maybe the cars should sound somehow like this

For me the old BF1 sound was maybe the best of all LFS car sounds, interesting that it had the biggest change.

Maybe you shouldn't be this rude, but well, I was thinking about the same when trying some cars, especially BF1 :/
After all there are no deadlines so Scawen has much time to improve the sounds so there is no problem

If you want my opinion:

1. BF1 sounds as if the car is with pitlimiter on. Sound amplitude should be much higher. For me the old sound of bf1 was better.
2. There should be some separate and much stronger gear change voice for the cars.

Anyway thanks for improvements.
