Once a newbie, always a newbie... The default BF1 sound clips like crazy and I've messed around with the values to no avail. Does anyone have any advice? I might actually use the car sometimes if it didn't sound like a budget distortion pedal.

Unfortunately the wave produced by the sound engine in the BF1 is all over the place. If it wasn't like that it would have to sound like a hum. Unfortunately like Bob says, you need to put the exhaust volume right down, even though this makes its rediculously quiet in comparison to the other cars.

theres no such thing as the limit...you've reached the limit when you do a superpi score in 0 seconds, otherwise, you'd just be wanting to beat 8seconds, mine does 17...long way to go....such as watercooling, maybe even buy a new chip, like the QX9850, or something...

Stop. Read my post above. You've had your fun, get over it.

I vote for thread closure again, and a temp ban of opening threads for harjun.

what? 3.2Ghz on a stock cooler, now tell me, how many people get that, people say if you're over 2.6Ghz on stock cooler thats good, im on 3Ghz now....owned what? if someone got owned, it is you

Jesus, overclocking is hardly something to get all proud about. Those processor's are so damn easy to overclock. 3 Ghz with that chip is no problem at all. I have an E2140 at home (1.6 Ghz stock) which I had heard was a good buy because it was so cheap, and could be overclocked very well.

So I looked into overclocking on the net first (so I wouldn't break it), to see what all the fuss was about. What is all the fuss about?? Why is overclocking such an incredible feat?? It took me 30 seconds to change 2 values in the bios, and viola, I now have it running at 2.1 Ghz (I didn't go higher, purely because I had no need to whatsoever. Why go higher??).

Did that make me feel proud? NO Would that be something I would boast about in a pub? Hell NO. Then why did I do it? To make LFS playable.

Go out and find something useful to do.

Same old same old. He hasn't learned.

Sounds nasty. Take care and get well soon!!

OK. Don't flame the guy. At least you trying (even if the way you are going about it is wrong).

EDIT: just wanted to add that that one team called "hyperbeaters" kinda failed...

Oh well I had a rubbish start to the season (With Newey at Red Bull I expected them to do well and they did rubbish).

First race was great. Qualified 2nd, thought it would stay that way, as Husky was pulling away. Then he made an error, I just managed to get past. The remaining laps were incredibly intense, but I just about held him off.

Second race, I had no laps on the combo at all, so it was a learning process from the start. It was all going well when I made a tiny error and tonix slipped past. Unfortunately me and MrSkill touched afterwards, and from then on I kept making errors / pushing too hard until I eventually ended up upside down and had to spectate.

Grats to Husky for the overall win.

Indeed, that was good fun. We weren't cheating either.

Ok guys I've changed it to south city long, in preperation for this: http://www.lfsforum.net/showthread.php?t=30672

Noooo I'm too late!! Anyone up for more races?

Yes please

Basicly the same here Mackie, treat everyone as a dumb inconsiderate twat who will do what you least expect them to.

Unlucky though Jak, to be quite honest I was the same as you, well not quite as bad to fall off but had alot of times when I was just going to fast or braking to hard.

The worst one I had was into a corner like the one you described, down a hill and a 90 right, while just touching the front brakes (and rear) went over a drain cover and I can quite happily say I was lucky not to have to change my pants when I got home. The grip came back after the drain cover but it certainly taught me how easy it is to just lose the front end.

Also roundabouts, 7am on a foggy cold greasy morning, some 4x4 up your arse so your i'm just going at a fast ish pace and the rear starts snaking around, it's just so easy on a moped, luckally I never crashed mine, but I have crashed one of my mates one a couple of years ago, basicly the same but the road was gravely and I slid off the side, hit a bank and landed on the road.

When you crash once you probarly wont crash in the same way again so it's a good lesson to learn early on.

Yeah, not that i've crashed on them, but drain covers are LETHAL.

J.B. ... have any onboards you can share? Pleeease?

Don't spray with the can upside down. And for christ sake get a brain while you're at it.

Damn Straight!

It can go up a hill, although embarrassingly it slows down considerably.

I have one of those . Still trying to sell it though. I've got a car license now.

Quite a fun first bike. Automatic, there is no point in a geared 50 IMO, and I got it to go 59 mph down a hill . I'm riding a CBR 125 ATM.

If Harjun is telling the truth about his parents, then...

Harjun, tell your parents to read this: You, are all idiots.

You sound like the ultimate spoilt brat Harjun.

I actually sometimes think Harjun's license is just some nutter trying to be funny, like its all a big joke.

And you Jakg, WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH YOU?? STOP WASTING YOUR TIME WITH HIM!!

Edit: As this post is relatively useless, if you want some advice, throw the laptop out of the window and get a proper damn life.

Definately darkest, nice and professional, the light ones look washed out.

Couldn't resist, did this a while ago, normal fast setup used...

Sounds normal to me. The motors are just getting hot that's all. But don't overdo it, maybe reduce ffb a bit.

Quote from JTbo :

I did decided to test annoying wing car that I never drive as I saw someone liking it a lot when driving one with motion simulator.

Can't really tell why, but it slides quite often if I touch loud pedal, it is like it would have minor acceleration and then insane slide acceleration, but hardly nothing between those two.

Also I found it incredible easy to catch in most situations (using 550 degrees with dfp).

Should it be like that or should set be adjust so that it does not do such things?

I had a test drive, and that setup is horrible. It bit me on lap 5 completely. However, my tips on driving the FO8 would be to just have confidence in the car, try sliding it on purpose to get a feel for it. I tend to mash the throttle and deal with the back end through steering inputs. However with this setup you need to have some throttle control too. Another tip would be to try and take smoother lines and maintain your speed throughout the corner.

But.. first thing would be to look on inferno for a better set.

P.S. I am by no means a very good driver, I'm just trying to help.

Quote from mcintyrej :

Why would overclocking it make it not overkill? I'm not really planning on overclocking. Maybe my CPU, If its not as quick as I'd like. But not my Graphics

Also, a Tagan 480W is £58.74, that's over budget. I've got a total max of £400, but I don't want to spend it all.

Overclocking that CPU is so easy to do, you can run it at 3 GHz, stock voltage and cooling. So that's almost twice the performance.

LMAO at this thread
