So:
Formula XR (Renault): 190CV and 490kgs -> 387CV/ton
Formula BMW: 140CV and 455kgs -> 307CV/ton

could be a nice competitor at some tracks

Quote from Zachary Zoomy :does anyone have this? I'm really thinking of buying one of these and I wanna know if this a good deal. is it durable? whats up with the adapter needed?
I did an intensive search on RSC but I found nothing relevent.

these video links seem to indicate it works well with LFS:

I have it and I had no problem at all. It has more than a year and works well.

Quote from GP4Flo :Enable Javascript, it's already like that for ages.

I think you didn't understand me...

Actually, we can see the earlier added lines to translate in green. Lines that are identical in yellow. But when a line that already exists gets updated in the English version (as the last player-guest updates or the skin_help update) you cannot quickly see which ones need to be updated. If it was.. devs would not send an email telling which lines to change.

Could be nice to have an identifier to let us (translators) know which words, phrases or keys have been updated or which ones needs to be retranslated.

I mean, actually, we get a mail telling us there are new things to translate or which keys has been slightly updated... but.. when there are updates to some already translated keys (as the last player-guest updates or the skin_help update).. could be nice to get another colour (say orange e.g) to identify which phrases needs to be redone or reanalyzed, this way would be a lot more easy to know which phrases has been updated.

Quote from AndroidXP :@-M-: Maybe a replay showing how you smoothly drive into a wall (a regular wall, not a red-white barrier) and it violently bouncing you back could help me understand what you mean.

as aNiBaRRo posted at page 2, here you have a good example, not a wall, but a car:

Quote from Scawen :In short, don't worry, in the next bunch of physics changes I will be looking at improvements to the collision system.

that's all I think we needed to read


btw, we wrote this thread becouse we thought next patches would be physical patches, as you said at some thread. We're not questioning your way to work

Quote from Don :But cars flipping over curbs is not the same bug as when you hit a barrier and fly to Moon.

no, of course, flipping over curbs is not a bug, crash to slightly touch a tyre on a chicane is a bug

Quote from SabersKunk :So, do you use custom layouts in your races?

some times, when cutting is possible and when pit entrance/exit line is large


ok, maybe 40% is a bit too much, this should not be the normal case, but the last races where in fernbay, blackwood and southcity
car2airplane bug

The Spanish LFS community wants to ask for an urgent bug resolve.

We all know about the car2airplane bug. When you hit a fence or another car slightly, your car flies to the nearest airport or over another car... but... the biggest problem is that most of the times will end over his roof, upside down....

This bug was not such a big problem until now... but since we got the new "can reset" update.... this bug has become a huge problem....

At LFS-Spain's leagues we used to have over 150 people racing every monday, and before patch X, the 80% of our racers were finishing our races.

With the new patch X and with the "can reset" option disabled, we've seen than nearly 60% (edit: 40 was a bit too much) of people can finish. We've seen the problem is when you hit slightly any fence or any car, you may fly and end upside down....

We discussed to enable "can reset" option to let people drive to pits and repair his car or continue if there was no damage, but if enabled... it repairs your car and resets tyre temps... and this is not what we want...


As a community, we think this collision bug should be at the top of todo list for next patches, because with the new "can reset" option it has became a big problem and a bit annoying bug.

Quote from himself :I am using SoftTh to play on 2 monitors (both attached to one Radeon 9800 Pro on AGPx8 of course). However I can not figure out how to increase the performance. After setting the 3072x768 resolution I have about 17fps at single player. However 1920x480 resolution gives only 5fps more Is there a way to boost the whole thing?

edit: Nevermind. Solved.

could you tell us how to solve it?

I'm doing a similar application using LFSLib.dll (part of the source code, so LFSLib.dll won't run into a PPC)

Would be nice to colaborate between us, so, if you need some help, I'll try to help you.

My application only can run outgauge data, but soon it'll be possible to run outsim data, insim is a bit more difficult

I did a mini app to work with PocketPC, but I was trying to use LFSLib.dll, and it won't work in a Compact Framework.

Anyonw knows how to "convert" LFSLib.dll into a Compact Framework? So it can work with a PDA.

do you know if this dll can be used with a smartdevice C# project?

EDIT:

I think the answer is not

Read at: https://forums.microsoft.com/M ... stID=1231117&SiteID=1
Quote :class libraries run on the device must be built against the .NETCF version of the BCL (mscorlib.dll, system.dll, system.xml.dll, etc.). .NETCF will not resolve types that are compiled against the desktop version of these assemblies. If you want to share the same binary on device and PC, you need to build against the .NETCF assemblies. The desktop CLR will retarget .NETCF assemblies to their desktop counterparts.

Can I compile LFSLib.dll with Compact Framework? so it can work with a PPC C# project

Quote from buedi :I am currently "working" on an Insim / Outgauge App for my Windows Mobile 2003 and Windows Mobile 5.0 PDA. But Progress is really slow, because I have not much time. With Luck I can code the Application once a week for a few hours. And since I am learning programming while writing this Application I am really very slow. But I want to finish it... first I have to adapt it to the new Insim Version :-/

And do you think you could release your early code ? So we could have a base to start with!

I'm really intereseted in!
New way to start a drag :)

"Immediate join at start of qualifying now starts from pit box" -> I understood "All qualifying cars now starts from pit box"

Then... I read it a second time..

if it was a poll I would vote -1

disabling auto-handbrake at starts is ruining playability at all

we are talking about 1% part of a race, why should this be so important? let it be as it is now...

is your "something like that. But never brought it to an end" easy convertible to PDA compatible ?

or maybe you could realese the source code, so someone could develope it.

I know how to programme, but don't know how to programme for a PDA compatible.

it would be nice to have outgage and outsim data in a PDA

maybe we can use this sourcecode http://www.kamelstall.de/lfg/ to work in a PDA
