Hello,

A 6-7 month lfs racing team. At the moment it only has kart racers in it. Has a 24/7 Server on S2, which has a combo of UF1 & Fe1. With LFSLapper. Visit us at KRRacingTeam.i8.com.

Enjoy...

Hmm... I just jumped on a server . Just ask for the leaders setup (Remember to say please ). I recommend starting on the CTRA Race 1. (Beginners Class/Slow Cars). Spec the leader for his lines. And most of all ENJOY!

Quote from [d9] :every server owner can decide about of its guests. i automatically ban by hand nazi, etc. nicks...
unnameds are mostly idiots, who can not even read server requirements, so on my server they are kicked every 30s or with "no name no game", "kicking time" or "welcome" messages. (for jokers with unndamed nick or other creative people is there still possibility to use invisible characters etc. protection...)

Do you have anybody in your server?

Hmm... Well the make of the CPU is VIA C3. Ive tried running it on low graphics, smallest screen, No running programs which arnt needed and got around 10FPS. Maybe i should stick with my computer were i get over 100fps .

Many thanks for the info,

Hi,

I simply have a Low spec Laptop just for browsing the internet, I was looking at the Required Computer Specification Needed to be able to run LFS. I looked at it and I was quite surprised. Can anyone explain to me a :

Needed
1 GHz Processor
128Mb Ram
3D Graphics Card

Mine

1.2Ghz Processor
256Mb Ram
3D Graphics Card

Not be able to cope with LFS even when it has a higher spec and freezes alot. This to me doesnt make sense is there any way i could get my laptop be able to cope with LFS and run it on a full server?

Many Thanks,

Matty

Hi,

Im trying to upload a Video under Mpeg format into google video and the file contains a wooping 356mb and only 8mins long. I might aswell give up as it would take years to upload that. Is there any format you guys would use to upload onto Youtube?

Many Thanks,

Seen that video before .

I think it does need karts due to the fact, nearly ALL racing drivers have had something to do with them. For example you cant just ask if you can join F1, you have to build you way through the stages (Cadet, Minimax, Junior Max, Senior Max, Junior TKM, TKM Extreme, 125 Gearbox, Biland etc). You dont have to do all of these stages like you could go from minimax miss out junior and go to junior TKM. This is a different engine etc. TKM And minimax and the other maxes are different karts. The cadet is a starting kart but there is a kart for babies! called the Baby Kart. As Luis Hamilton started in Karting he had to make his way through it like this then he was spotted as a good drive then went onto Faster machines. Now hes ended up in F1 with a MASSIVE wage but a debt aswell (Shouldnt take long the ammount of money your on). In karting there are 2 (Or should i say 3) different karts all together,

2 Stroke Engines, The engine size (For example 100cc) is lower but there quicker due to how the work.

4 Stroke Engines, Higher Engine Size (500cc) But the engines are probably around the same.

The wankel engine - Alan , He invented this, a video on his website www.karting1.co.uk, A kart with i think (If i remember correctly) 50BHP, this can beat a Biland round a track, Biland are fast karts but the wankel engine has power at the top end, normal engines have it at the bottom. So really you thrash the engine and it thanks you for it. A Fantastic kart that was Alan! (He Plays LFS and comes on the forum, im sure this thread will attract his attention!)

I see as karts are really the start of the Motorsport on tracks, Not many people jump into cars straight away, Karting lets you get the feel of contact and learning the racing lines. And maybe in the near future you move on? As im sure alot of karters will submit and be invovled in this thread. You would be alot better if you jump into karting for around 6 years than you jump into cars straight away. You wouldnt know the lines, how to set up the car, how to react to an error which would of accured.

MRT - The MRT doesnt really handle like a kart, It seems to not have a feel of a kart or the look. To be honest im not a big fan of it due to the gears are different (Motorbike engine?) and karts dont have F1 Stubs (Which the wheels fit on to) and at the back i can't see an axle? I just can't get the hang of that.

How about a pole being added to the thread? Will give a better idea of who would like what? And shouldnt this be in the suggestions forum?

Any way,

Many Thanks,

Matty (Karts FTW!)

Finding You Speed/Bandwidth Downloading/Uploading Results

Hi,

Ide think it would be interesting to find out for me and others, to compare are internet speed results. As you all probably know, my is rubbish, this would also give us a guidence of what provider to go for and if Wlan or Lan. Also Which would need to be included is your providers name and Bandwith (Up to **Mb). And if your ADSL, Cable, Sat. This Would Give a good Idea for LFS users to see which is the best, for more stable results AND less or no timeouts!

For Example :

Adsl
Up To 16Mb Bandwidth
Lan Cable 10m (Or Wireless Signal Strength)
Downloading Speed : 3036 Kbps
Uploading Speed : 808 Kbps
Aol


The Link To Go Off :

http://www.wugnet.com/myspeed/speedtest.asp
(Remember to Click To Start MySpeed, Which is in the top Left)

Now My Results :

Adsl
Up To 8Mb Bandwidth
Wireless Signal Strength Low>Good
Downloading Speed : 819 Kbps
Uploading Speed : 343 Kbps
Sky Boardband.

Thankyou For your time,

Matthew
