Buy a license you cheapskate haggis eater

16th January 2010 - The day I leave Scotland and go 278 miles south.
I joined the RAF and that is my leaving date, RAF Cosford in Wolverhampton will be my home for the next 9 month. After that I could be based anywhere in the world
You see why I have no licence yet

10 month ago I joined, but if I never played it for about 7 months of that time, So I have just started playing the last few months and was going to buy a licence but didn't see the point if I was never to use it like 11 months of the year...

Meh, If LFS and its community is around when I leave the RAF, Then I'd buy it by that time I would be able to by G25,27 or what ever is out by that time...

Im sure there wont be too many major updates from now, So I dont mind updating two different versions.. If the smaller size is perfect for you then I'd be happy to upload it

I'll tidy it up (few things arn't spaced out and some overlap) and I'll post a link here for them tommorow

Lol thats pretty bad dude. 1st post and you decide to bumb a thread from over 3 years ago

:bump:

I will continue making/updating the original but if others want the smaller size then i'll update that also... but if no-one want the (slightly) smaller version then I wont make it

OK, no update as of yet, just posting to let guys who requested a smaller size guage
However, I cannot resize it, much smaller than it already is... The reason being that the Speed and RPM Gauge starts to dissappear after rezising 10 pixels or so, therefore the width of the app would only reduce about a very small amount of pixels.
Same with the height of the SPEED & RPM gauge... But I can resize the temp, turbo, oil, fuel gauges so it would make the app slightly less tall...

Here you see the old size and the new size after resizing the Speed & RPM Guage as much as they will go (without dissapearing)


So.. If you really want the smaller size (show above) reply here, i'll tidy up the form a little and release the exe, otherwise I dont see much point unless its only a few pixels too big for you...

Quote from mvp!!! :

I have DFGT 900 °. How could I get the wheel to remain in place when I turned 360 degrees?

Unplug the power supply, it would disable FFB therefore shouldnt return to center
Unless it has a spring return, just remove the spring

Quote from cambos13 :

How do i make my wheel work it does nothing but says it is detected. Do i have to be a licensed driver?

Make sure you have the drivers installed correctly..
Does the wheel work in other games?
Is it detected by windows?

lol Shadowww U can upload 2x my download

I am limited to 10Mb/s because my telephone line max is 10Mb/s-15Mb/s from where I live to any exchange in my area... Since Sky dont do 15Mb/s I have to stick with 10...ahh well

House.jpg
A=My House
C=Closest Exchange
If I stayed near B then I would be able to get 40Mb/s (If I payed for it :shy

I would say its a reasonable speed for browsing and online app that dont need fast speeds

(Easynet = Sky Broadband)

Lol I thought my dads LandRover Discovery smoked a lot!
But that whoa! Like a fookin steam train

+1
Once theres a working Engine temp, could have smoke on a cold engine and the haze on a warm engine

I used to use a splitter (from 1 output to 2) then 1 to the TV and 1 to the capture card in my PC

Glad its running ok,
I would usually have it on PC but got it for the xbox so I could play with all those friends who prefer consoles

(kinda old thread I know, but I've been away :tilt

Well there is the worst 1st post I have saw in a while...

Quote from logitekg25 :

hmm, well when i first install the program and it opens by default it works flawlessly when everything is set good....i am extremely satisfied. but when i exit lfs it still works, the only time it acts up is when i close the program, it will not open up due to an error that says 'run-time error '13':

type mismatch'

Ahh, I think that is again to do with the ini, I may be wrong but I think its trying to read a value and use it in a variable of a different type, from what the value is...
I'll see if I can somehow reproduce this and find a way to fix
I'll add some debug error checking, so that if something goes wrong it gives meaning errors, not just 'runtime error'

EDIT: After a quick check, my guess is that it is the INI that causes the problems... Now to make a fix
ALSO: From now on all updates will only include the exe and ini, you will need to have installed the full version before

then you went on vacation... how was it by the way

It was fun, not a major holiday, just a few days away in the caravan, and to see grandparents

hmm

Like Ripley's lagging problem I have never experianced this on any pc/laptop I test it on

Can you post a screenshot of the error message?
Does it only happen when you close the dash, or closing lfs with the dash still open, both?


EDIT: Forgot to mention in my last post (#439) that I added a maybe pointless feature, but my friend requested it and I added to the main program.. Can be disabled in the options as well as the sounds...

When using the turn signals on your car it will flash your keyboard Num, Scroll status....

Quote from Shadowww :

We really care, thanks for great news

Im sure if you search you find in many places...

pretty pointless post I must say

Yea, I know its old, just saying

I used to use a program that allows different wallpapers, and also put a taskbar on each screen, which displayed only the programs open and on that screen.

Hey, I just did a few laps on a full (14cars) server, and I noticed no lag on the needles
I had made some updates a few days ago and never had time to update here, so..

Here is the updated exe, It may help.. I will test on the laptop after I post this, Latop has 1GB ram and 1.73GHz, where as this pc has 6GB RAM and 3.5GHz so It may handle it faster..

VLFSDashExe.rar
(Note: This is only the exe and ini, You will have to replace/overwrite the originals manually in the in the "\Program Files\VLFSDash\INC\" folder

Windows 7 has a built-in wallpaper changer, when selecting the wallpaper just select a few and choose the delay

Try re-installing the full download, maybe corrupt...

My Desktop - Caution 2560x1024, 5mb PNG

Too Large to embed, Attach - Clicky Heree

I use the XP Mode that is with Windows 7 (separatly downloaded, Although maybe included in later builds)
Allows you to use a licenced version of XP
Although its just VirtualPC and you can install your own OS onto it aswell...

Oh, I have never noticed this myself Is it using excesive ammounts of cpu when its 'lagging'?
What Delay are you using in cfg.txt?

Hello

So i have been building a Flight Simulator for quite some time and have always wanted to build a race car simpit too. I just found your AWESOME software. The downloads above I assume are the latest edition. I downloaded both the exe and the rar files but have been unable to install them (i do know they are both the same file just saved differntly) Anyway the install gets to 40% then it stops after about 40 sec it shows "Not Responding" What am i doing wrong.

Thanks for the help and for the software.

What Operating System are you using, the setups automatically install and register the required dll,ocx files. It may be failing when doing so
