Quote from Impreza WRX :
Have you tried GNOME3 or Ubuntu's Unity interface? It's the same storm of grief and rage from users of the most popular desktop and distro of Linux, but a year before Windows 8 came along. Also, MacOSX has a similar launching panel now, but it feels stiched-in like an afterthought. The end of the Start menu will still happen, and many nay sayers have not even tried to actually use the new menu design and set it up in a way that would be efficient for them. They try it for 5 minutes, go "WHAR IS MENU?!! >" and give up with a table flip, instead of looking at the simple instructions.

I liked the idea of Unity but for a one stop centre that you were to access all your stuff from, it wasn't actually very comprehensive in it's searches. Plus once they stuck the amazon spyware in, it was bye bye from me. I now use xubuntu with a piece of software installed called "synapse" which does what unity aimed to do, properly and doesn't by default send my search entries to amazon.

Hey, all four members on my team (absolute beer and marlboro) signed up using the sign in server and were on the team page and then in the past couple of days one of them has disappeared and now needs to use the sign up server again. I can also see this has happened with a member of absolute beginners neverending sunshine team as well.

Obviously, it's not that much of a big deal to sign up again but i thought i should point this out.

Looking at the videos on youtube, that high pitched sound when the cars brake is horrid.

I have the xfx 7870. Works really well. Ditto what forbin said about checking your PSU and also the actual card itself is quite big, dwarfed the card it was replacing sizewise.

Quote from chris_uk :Can i just ask... Why are you pissing about with 3d support when there are far more important things you should e working on?

Quote from Scawen :no

I ain't the boss of nobody's time but personally things like lag crashes catapulting people into infinity and beyond and track bugs like the kerb on kyoto national affect everyone's racing on a daily basis. How many lfs users have 3d? So I kinda think he had a point though you can obviously spend your time as you wish.

Nothing makes sim racing look boring like driving 30mph to the supermarket for your shopping.

Quote from Gutholz :I know moderators do not get paid for what they do so after a while it can become boring.
Still I think moderators should service the forum instead of ranting about these same ever repeating things.
You have the power to make a difference by doing small things.
For example since years the league section has many inactive subforums, making it very cluttered. Why is nobody sorting that out?
Sure, it is not exciting as an LX8 but if new players can more easily find which leagues are currently running that is a nice thing, too.

This said in an adjacent thread is correct. It's all very nice having an archive of leagues from years ago but having to scroll past a list of them to get to information about current events is silly. Make the LFS leagues and events forum tidier and current so that people can easily see what's going on rather than having to click down into sub forums and then put that at the top of the forum.

Quote from BlueFlame :I couldn't find a bit where it specified they were the same as F1 tyres or not, it only said the compounds used were the same..

"Just as is the case for Formula One, the P Zero Yellow soft and P Zero Red supersoft tyres have been nominated" That means the same tyres.

http://www.gp2series.com/News- ... ns-and-glamour-of-Monaco/ I just typed "gp2 tyres" and this was first on the list, proper detective work that.

What bothers me about the tyre thing is that it's completely dependant on what Pirelli do how teams fortune's go. So mercedes are being heavy on their tyres, therefore they have relied on Pirelli making their tyres at least somewhat durable. Ferrari and Lotus seemingly the other way but Pirelli, who appear to be just playing this by ear a little too much could have quite easily made a tyre more durable than they meant too for teh Spanish grand prix and this would have favoured Red Bull and Mercedes, nobody has actual time to prepare and they just seem to be some sort of lottery of design your car a certain way and hope Pirelli makes tyres that favour your design. It's stupid.

I'd much rather than they limit the amount fuel they can use, at least that would be tactical and encourage some form of coherent technology advance.

Quote from sti228 :Thank you for information people. Today i make icard in bank, and they told me to come and took it tomorrow. Also they said that 5 $ is Charges for 1 year. So tomorrow i will upload 45 or 47 $ in my card.

But now i am interested how to pay for game. What is this extra credit ? It's for skin slots ?



I have 2 questions. First one. Which one i must choose here ? I think - first, because icard is credit card.



And than how to fill it ?



I think tomorrow i will try to buy it, but with this funcion: Buy LFS S2 license (unlock S1 & S2 level content).

Hope everything will be alright, and i don't have payment problems.

P. S. Can i somehow find people (from georgia) who already have S2 license ? Or list of this licensed members from our country.

The credit is for downloading hi res skins of other players in game. Wait till you play, if you have a good spec computer and other player's skins look crap to you, then that gives you the option of making it hi res.

You fill the form with your card details and address. The field titles are pretty self explanatory.

Couple of screen shots from races. In the first, I was approaching an off and the pic is taken through the chucked up dirt. The second was a near miss of a stationary spun car

I think it has more to do with the lack of development in their genital area than their opinion of the pace of LFS development.

Not defending those people because people should be polite and welcoming to newbies but it's not a perfect world and by 14 he should be mature enough to rise above a load of crap talk in a computer game without needing his dad to come online and make a fool of himself in the forum.

Was someone's team name really "BullNiggur" or was that a joke on the spotter graphic?

If you ask me, Vettel was the only one thinking long term. Him winning a fourth WDC by less than 7 points is a far more likely scenario than Mark Webber being 1st or a close 2nd.
