restart lfs
re-download & install lfs
try to connect to a different server
try to connect several times

that´s just the basic things to do

maybe checking the firewall settings might also help, although windows firewall allows pragrams started by you to connect to the internet even without asking.

ok, sry. I was more focussed on the missing "spectating" status in the lfsw progress window then the actual cause
/spec user -> lfsw progress not spec [fixed]

the title says it basically:

when i make someone join spectators using "/spec user", there´s no message on the server saying "xy joined the spectators", and also, when i check the lfsworld progress window right after it, it doesnt show him spectating.

Quote from balee :Wow! What's that?

with like 70m per lap, it´s 210m after 3 laps - that´s not really 1 km, is it?
anyway, you´re lucky! i´ve done several hundred laps uf1 on autox layouts (mostly banger races), and it doesnt show a single one - only bl1 and 2.

silly question maybe, but how is it possible, that whatshisnameagain bought like 10 licences and gave them away including some quiz, right here on this forum? ... i think some of you know who i mean.

Quote from tonyonparas :I have 180 degree logitech formula vibrator or something...

First it turns pretty much the same speed that in tah car but then the cars wheel starts to spin a lot.

Not a wheel i recommend to anyone but at least its better than any other controller but a better wheel.

it´s not the wheel, but your controller settings in lfs. the "wheel turn compensation" on your screenshot is set to 1. that´s the second slider from the top, in your language called "Ohjauksen lineaarisuus".

if you set it to 0, the wheel ingame will turn with a constant speed while you do the same to your wheel. so, if you can turn max 90° into one direction and the ingame wheel can turn max 360 (=4x90), then the ingame wheel will always turn 4x your wheels turn.

if you leave wheel turn compensation at 1, then it does just what you said: the closer you are to the center, the slower the ingame wheel turns.

Quote from jonny__27 :Personally, i like to oversteer a little bit, having just around 5 degrees of slipping, except on single seaters and gtr's, where i need downforce. i drive better that way.

there´s a GTR in lfs demo available? wow, didn´t know that!

ping 37/39 to liveforspeed.net - so those 2 tests don´t show any problems, do they? ok, timeout at the second hop ("zeitüberschreitung der anforderung"), but after that it went back to normal

can´t confirm the problem.

Hosts: Can Join 679 - No Reply 10 - Wrong Version 0

62 non-empty servers

589 servers with a ping below 100ms

seems pretty normal here

how about the "off-topic" subforum?

anyway, check joox.net, might help to let time pass faster.

don´t waste time using logic to prove anything to atlantian. it hurts to see how some of you put so much effort in talking to him in a comprehensible/reasonable manner. it´s hard to accept (as he is human and has a brain just like us) that he can not think! but this is what he has proven to all of us who can.

he can´t, he probably never could, he surely never will.

there are more like him - very rare, but i´ve met at least one of this kind before.

and i´m sure that you can not learn logic thinking. feel free to post ONE example that shows i´m wrong (not you, atlantian - anyone else but you)



everything else i wanna say would be against the forum rules and
make no difference anyway, for reasons i just told you, so ...

/select yes

agree with drifting about half texture size. also a lower options->graphics->user LOD setting might help. there´s just one thing about that slider that might give you a disatvantage on track: the lower you set user LOD, the closer other cars need to be to appear in your mirror.

to reduce FPS drop at the start, go to options->misc and turn "dynamic LOD reduction" up to the max: 1.00

this will make other cars at the start look like cubes, but at least it chould be playable again.

yeah, you just left our server after you asked if we want you to leave, so i had no time to explain further... then i see this thread of yours, so just a word from me:

a high and/or unstable ping makes cars look like jumping left right all over the place, the faster you drive/more grip you have, the more dramatic this effects the actual cars position. on the oval, where you drive pretty close to other cars at high speed, this is just lethal, so we´re kinda constantly looking for ppl with high pings.

to get a descent ping, just make sure that your line is solely used by lfs... noone knows better then you what other things use your connection. maybe your girlfriend playing WoW on her laptop in the next room, or you´re in some bigger network like one of those houses for students, where the whole building is on a 100mbit connection and every second pc there is downloading sth from rapidshare ... then you can´t really do anything against it.




and for that blocking rule, well, that´s simply a rule we have on our server. like other servers have a rule like "don´t talk to the admins or you get banned". just make sure you read the welcome screen and maybe the !help, $help, %help or whatever messages once you´re on a server, and you´ll enjoy your stay.

k, this was more then one word, but i hope it helps a little

cheers

i swear this is neither german nor english ... maybe gerlish/denglish

anyway, my answer is: wrong password

remember, you can set two different passwords, one to make the server private (/pass=privatepw), and one admin password (/admin=adminpw)

your sets are still there, but the physics/tires changed a bit, so the sets are not perfect anymore....

http://www.lfsforum.net/showthread.php?t=34784

and yeah, just use one unlock for the patch ... you get a new unlock once a week, up to a maximum of 2 if i´m right



oh and there are a few more changes in the new patch, like you have to watch the clutch temperature, so no more flatshifting in some cars ... just make sure you read about the changes

burning virtual fuel instead of real one is kinda environmental-friendly anyway. so i´d say the guy with the most time spent in LFS (instead of a real car) should get this award ... guess who he probably is

or the award goes to the devs ... tbh i drive (even more) like a grandma and therefore less fuel-consuming in real life since i play LFS. no need to get an adrenaline rush while you could actually cause a REAL accident.

Quote from whitford :you go to overtake and then you either crash or take wrong line so your better off not bothering

sry, but am i the only one who doesn´t get his point? if you have a stable set, there´s no way to pass? that´s why you need like a set that is unstable enough to be fast? what?

ok, i assume you didn´t do extensive driving on the oval, so:

i did some quick test runs, with my "stable-but-not-fast(-enough-to-pass)" set and plaztik latest set in the fzr. and i was not one hundreth of a second faster with plaztiks set. if plaztik insists in being faster with his latest set, then ok, lets say it´s like that:

with my older set, he can get below 38.40 in 30% of his laps,
with his latest set he can get below 38.40 in 80% of his laps.
So let´s say his latest set is half a hundreth of a second faster (0,005s).

driving 360kph, you drive 100m in 1second, or 0.5m in 0.005s.
you´ll never reach 360kph in an fzr, so in 0.005s you drive more like 0.4m. back to comparing the 2 sets, that would mean that you may loose 0.1m (10 centimetres) per turn (including the little bend on start-finish).

Now i wanna see you say "DAMN, i lost that guy´s draft in that turn because he´s a tenth of a metre too far away from me. i NEED his setup" just look at your hand, like the distance between your thumb and your ... 5th finger (germans call it little finger, no clue about english). and then go online, join the oval, watch a car in front of you and estimate how many times there can be a tenth of a metre between you and the other car until you loose his draft...

i use the stable set because i do NOT crash with it. and if i drive the wrong line, then ... i dunno, it hurst my brain how you can say it´s the setups fault if you drive a wrong line. it really hurts!
