Quote from Tweaker :

.. if you had it unchecked, your wheel would be loose all the time, and you wouldn't have any resistance from the steering wheel if you slid or anything. It would just be loose and you wouldn't feel the car's steering tension come into play.

Because, if you try and do a test with the wheel, always do a 360 in your car and let go of the wheel. Just like a car's wheel would really act, it would spin freely and try to countersteer on its own. When you have the option unchecked, it would not do this

That can't be right, centering spring has no relation to current forces, my centering spring setting is unchecked at 0% and my wheel turns (by itself) as it turns on screen, as it should, from the current forces.

Edit: difference with centering on/checked at 0%: none.

Even if you're not firewalled, you need to forward the server port from your router to your PC.

If you're running a server on port 63392, forward that port to your PC.

Heres my edit, ive learnt from Evans tho, its definately not cliche so you cant say its bad!

Amazing.

Oh it's explorer, not winamp. sorry

Add explorer.exe to the DEP ignore list then, probably not really a great idea though.

I guess something icky is happening when explorer tries to grab some info on the file.

Try another media player or add winamp to the DEP ignore list, system->advanced->performance->data execution prevention.

Quote from Darkone55 :

When the video is finished I should import it to Premiere, and then put music under it. But then I still can't export it to 50 FPS..

Add the music in virtualdub.

Any laps you do in any car will add to your "skill", if you had 20,000 laps in other cars, 5 days for 1:36 on BL1/XFG would be pretty damn slow, but with 5 days total experience it's not slow at all.

Why not join OLFSL, next race is BL1/XFG and it's still a week away, and the following races will give you a few new combo's to practise.

Quote from Darkone55 :

But if I use half the speed, at 25 FPS. How can I add music to it?

You add music when the video is finished, i.e when you've speeded it up to the fps you want it to be.

If you don't have environment to build it, here is binary, so you can test your app..

Thanks, still doesn't work tho.

It's pretty strange, i can get lapper working by chaining ..


.. but lapper won't 'initialize' connecting to my proxy, which behaves exactly the same in the above configuration as it would without gateway being involved.

My proxy should in theory support infinite clients, runs fine with both dedilink and racemanager connected, but i can't figure out how to connect back to the incoming port in php (ie. lapper), any of the ones i can sniff out seem to be wrong. Would be spiffy if lapper could send the port it's using in the packet, but i should get i working sooner or later i guess.

Quote from gwendoline :

each insim application using his own specific port.

Any insim app is free to listen on any free port, there's no such thing as specific ports.

Lapper sends no port (0), meaning ..

Quote :

Note : If Port is zero, LFS will send replies back to the port of the incoming packet

I actually made a 'system' this morning, a very simple web interface to add a ban for x amount of time together with a small reason and an mpr. The list of bans gets downloaded every so often and bans are added thru insim, /ban <username> <time>. On every request for the list, expired bans get deleted.

The web interface currently lives at http://lur.h1x.com/lfsmbl/.

Problems include the obvious "who can add a ban", and the fact that my insim daemon this runs on is still unreleased and undocumented.

Speaking of ^ that ^, for the sake of tidyness you should let users decide which port they want lapper to use instead of sending "0".

Sending "0" also confuses my insim proxy.

Quote from wheel4hummer :

Another problem: If I turn my wheel one direction about 70 degrees and let go, it will start rotating from side to side and it will go faster and faster. This makes it hard to control sometimes.

Set your force strength lower.

I'll join, my XRT is getting dusty.

I've found rendering to Uncompressed RGB / Uncompressed PCM for audio/video from Premiere saves me alot of time, and lets me experiment with compression in VirtualDub instead. Sound, for example, need only be compressed once this way, using direct stream copy for any adjustments on video compression later.

Quote from Bosse :

Do I want it to be interlaced?

You don't want interlaced video on a progressive display (pc monitor).

Quote from Becky Rose :

256kbit/sec for 20 players is hardly a problem.

Um, 256kbit/s is 32 Kb/s, enough for ~11 players at the lowest pps.

Quote from Matrixi :

You might want to put on de-interlace when you compress the movie in VirtualDub.

He might not want that, captured video from fraps is not interlaced.

Good quality of course, but i'd much prefer higher framerate over huge resolution.

~1,7mb / second, you'd hit a Gb for a 10 minute movie.

Can't really say anything about the content, except for the music, really the techno equivalent of a php-nuke website, push the "make techno" button on your "music maker 2002" and this comes out, "hello template".

I think it's right.

Quote from Becky Rose :

71 fahrenheit is 21 celcius... Could this be what the driver was elluding too? I'd pass out at 71 celcius, and after 2 hours i'd be crispy.

I very much doubt it, since he also mentioned the rear windscreen (plastic) was starting to melt.

Mods are great for a completed product, which LFS isn't, even tho it feels like it.

Addon tracks wouldn't hurt tho, even while LFS is in progress.
