Probably the track layout drawing, for the new setup screen and .. in game?

There were new .pth-files, too!

Quote from Quint999 :Application tried to create a window, but no driver could be loaded. Make sure that your X server is running
..
if youve any good pointers to get wine / lfs running i'd very much appreciate it, thanks

My guess would be - change /dedicated=nogfx to /dedicated=invisible, which i'd guess would stop LFS from trying to create a window.

Quote from Jakg :if that doesnt work try this file, rename it from Ping.mp3 to Ping.bat, seeing as i caqnt upload .bats here

Maybe a good idea to actually try the batch file yourself first.

Quote from Honey :i guess that people with no asio hardware prolly have so outdated hardware that they will not run anything newer than windows xp.

If LFS is using DirectSound, anyone who has sound in LFS could also run DirectX ASIO. Simple as that. It's not nearly as effective as native ASIO support of course, i think most if not all Creative cards these days have native ASIO, so a Creative card owner could run sound at ~2 ms latency.

The ASIO SDK was still completely free and without any form of royalties last time i checked.

Quote from DEVIL 007 :And whats the CPU usuage using ASIO?What was in your test?

Around ~26-28%, running Cubase SX3.

I guess it's fair to say LFS would never need/use the complexity offered by Cubase, thus load would drop quite a bit.

Quote from Lateralus :ridiculous considering that the X800XL is quite a bit more powerful than the 9800XT.

~25 fps on the grid, 40-90 fps while driving depending on all it depends on, Celeron D, Radeon 9550SE, 4xAA/AF (720x576 :shy

Something's wrong with your stuffies.

Been there.

I think i solved it by using /e, eval.

Quote from Honey :this is a good point, but you'd be surprised about how few people have an asio sound card...moreover it is some years that audio is integrated on motherboards

What i'm saying is everyone has an ASIO card, even integrated $0.5 chips.

Attached is a realtime recorded clip of my budget realtek chip on my budget motherboard playing 9 channels of asio sound, using 6 different virtual instruments and 2 mastering plugins. At 16.6ms latency (DirectX).

Quote from Honey :.. it would only work for users with expensive audio cards

Not really, ASIO has had DirectX drivers for over 7 years. With reasonably simple content such as LFS' engine sounds a budget card/chip should easily be able to run with latency well under 20ms.

There's also http://www.asio4all.com/ (WDM).

Quote from Cue-Ball :I think you've got your numbers wrong somewhere.

Actually, i think it's you who's got both your numbers and units a bit wrong.

16 kilobytes per second equals 128kbit/s, still a quite common upstream speed.

256Mbit/s equals 32 megabytes per second, not a very common upstream speed really, and i guess you mean 256kbit/s, which is 32kb/s.

Quote from Vaillant :What's the meaning of "artificial"?

"at x amount of speed, set the wheel rumble to an amount of y", without any real connection to physics.

As joen says, defragmenting after uninstalling something is basically completely useless, but if you need more speed: http://www.oo-software.com/en/products/oodefrag/

Quote from nutty boy :What is AA+AF.

Anti-aliasing is a way of making an image looks softer, by first rendering the image larger (hence the x2, x4) and resizing it to the final size with some trickery to make neighbouring pixels affect each others colour, resulting in softer edges due to more gradient changes in colour between close pixels.

Anisotropic filtering is a method for enhancing surface graphics rendering, mostly noticeable on steep slopes in the distance where there's usually quite a bit of blurring and loss of detail, which AF tries to reduce.

Follow Renku's first URL to find out how to turn them on.

I'd be happy to get 50kb/s, the forum is obviously bandwidth limited, which is fine, but it does seem a bit extreme.

Average speed of forum attachements for me is 8kb/s, reminds me a bit of using the internet - 5-6 years ago.

If my numbers are right, 128mbit upstream could hold 8 racing cars at 3 pps, amount of cars drop by 1 car each step up in pps (4 pps 7 cars, 5 pps 6 cars.. )

How broken is the broken wheel? if the pedals still work thru the 'broken' wheel, just keep both wheels plugged in.
