In your network settings, have you made sure that your PC is set up for DHCP? That is if the router uses that and you havent manually assigned IP's...

Quote from Jakg :Like i said, the Gear Whine sound is, afaik, based on a single looping sample - i think that DaveWS took a real sound and tried to make it sound good looping, only it doesn't properly loop and as such you get the annoying noise.

Possible i guess.

Quote from Jakg :Wow, i thought i was the only one that could hear this!

Yep ive noticed it ages ago, but i thought it was normal and common knowledge... Seems not with this thread being made so late after the sound updates...

With me mostly driving the GTR's these days, mainly FXR iv'e seem to become somewhat used to it, however im still curious as to what it actually is.

Anyone tried playing with the sounds in game? (Shift+A) to see if any of those options change it. I have a suspision that it is the turbo, fully spooled while the car is in motion... however normal RL cars wouldnt do that.

Quote from shiny_red_cobra :Just thinking out loud here, but anyone can run a dedicated server, whether S2 or demo, it's the same file. I guess it's only a matter of time until someone discovers a way to merge the two modes together.

i doubt that because the master server wouldnt be able to track if its a demo or S2 server.... i think, i may be wrong.

Quote from harjun :i get 500fps + tryna get it to 1000 on high detail still

Whats the point? you wont get more that what your monitors refresh rate is anyway. afaik the standard TFT is 60hz therefore you can only physically see 60fps anyways . you might as well had some AA and AF and make it look pretty and still get around 100fps, rather than it looking crap and having m3g4l0lz FPS.

EDIT : im sure jakg has said this hundreds of times to people thinking that 500fps is l33t y0.

Quote from Nick Brad :This sounds like the ideal scenario for me as I'm looking to set up a new racing league next spring, but unfortunately my present pc can't handle large grids, (very old spec now, but was reasonable when I bought it). I hope you do recruit guys to help out as it would be a real shame to lose MoE, especially with the publicity you've got from SRT.

MoE Races are in S2? Unless you follow the season with the streams or something

But i certainly hope something can get sorted out with the admin of MoE. Its a league i very much love to drive in, and it would be a shame to lose it. I'll have a word with Fusion Racing to see how we may be able to assist.

Quote from chanoman315 :one day i saw in S2 33/32 connected... weird, but that was a long time ago, like a month

This was implimented by Scawen so that admins can still join their servers if it is full to administrate it without having to wait for a player slot to become availible.

Quote from scoobyrbac :it says on their welcome message....that they are going to try to get all tracks and cars on demo...this is something that REALLY needs to be looked at.

I seemed to have missed that! This is definatly an issue... lets hope the devs can put a stop to it!

Definatly something that needs to be looked at. obviously an exploit with the new number of spectator slots being increased in S2 or something

Yeah jack is right...

Whats with the sudden obsession of gaming laptops?

Much better off having a decent desktop rig and a mid range laptop.

Quote from Jakg :
I'm don't know how much the server costs (or if i should mention how it's funded), but i know Fusion Dan (DANDAMAN05) has a server of a lower spec in the same datacentre (might even be in the same rack) and pays something in the region of £90 a month for it.

Indeed i do.

Intel P4 3.2ghz HT
2GB RAM
120GB HDD (upgrading soon)

My box is hosted by the same company as the UKCT box and would probs be next to each other on a rack.

I pay £70 per month for it. Which is funded by me turing up to college when im supposed to :P and also private donators.

There are far better servers out there of course... but this box im renting is just enough for what i want... for now.

Demo Server hack?

Today i was looking on the demo server list in-game, to have a look for my fusion servers. However one of the servers appears to have 32 slots? I though the demo was limited to something like 14-15 right?

Screenshot attached.

What firewall are you using?

The correct ports WONT be open, or you already have a server using the same port.

Oh the fun! :P you have no idea how long / how many attempts that took for us to pull that off
Request - Web dedi admin

Hey there folks. I'm just wondering whether anyone has a web admin script to control LFS servers via the net. Like what franky uses over at 500servers.

If not i will attempt to have a go myself with my new endevour to learn to write PHP.

Thanks
Dan.

That would be up to the admins / the server hosts to decide on. If i was hosting it over on my box i wouldnt see an issue with releasing said automatically saved replay.
