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".

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.

Quote from spsamsp :Ok... But as long as i have AGP them i am fine, right??

These specs on a Dimension 4400 doesn't mention any AGP slot, however, this specification of the chipset suggest it supports AGP4x. So if you do actually have AGP since the chipset should support it, it's still only running in 4x, whereas a modern AGP card would want to run in 8x.

In my opinion, you've waited too long for a performance upgrade, too many core things about your PC are outdated (400mhz FSB, AGP4x). Still, if you have AGP you could buy a decent graphics card which you could bring along for a completely new PC.

If you'd download everest, click "Report", do a "System Summary only", "Plain text", when it's finished hit "Save to file", save and attach the file to a post here, giving advice would be simpler (knowing what you have and what you don't).

spsamsp, PCI-E is still so new you can buy a brand new computer without it, a PC from several years ago will not have PCI-E, PCI-E and PCI are two extremely different things.

Did some random browsing/reading yesterday and found a neat comparison.

Aston Martin Racing guy: "my third le mans was pretty hard, we all drove 2-hour stints with in-car temperature peaking at about 71 degrees". (308km/h)

Random LFS race report: "was hard concentrating with 27 degrees in my room!" (0km/h)

You probably timed out as your LFS was frozen for 20 seconds.

I often hunt for/look at atleast 200 example shots before buying a camera.

Quote from EGGHEADNCJ :Does anyone know of any Copyright Free Dance or Rock music sites, that i can get the music for free? I need the music for a video but i dont want to get done for copyright, as i have no music that is copyright free

No one would ever care what you'd put into an LFS video, in terms of copyright etc.

Anyway, http://www.google.com/search?q=unsigned+mp3

Quote from mrodgers :NOOOOOOOO!!!!!! Don't fall into the Aston National trap!!!! You'll end up there forever. It's almost like the oval. It sucks people in and doesn't let them go. I should know, it's where I have my most laps. Hehehehe

:uglyhamme

I'm finally free, i think. Crossed that finish line in mid-race, stopped, thought "right, them last 100 laps brought nothing new, what's next".

Did you have to compare it to the oval? :hide:

And turn off insim on demo hosts, getting statistics without lfsworld is just another reason not to buy the full thing.

Quote from NotAnIllusion :*Oh yeah, and what happens when more than one person plays LFS on the same PC, but only one is an intentional wrecker? For example if the kid brother's a bit of a tosser but the big bro is quite clean a driver.

Big bro buys a license and passwords his PC.

LFS (demo) could supply the master server with one of these hardware-based keys, if the key doesn't exist an 'account' is created needing no user input, the player gets assigned a username tied to this 'account' (guest19538 etc.), which server admins can properly ban.

Quote from danowat : .. the throttle wouldnt work, this lasted for what felt like an age, in reality it was probably only a few seconds, but the car was stranded illepall

Anyone else encountered anything similar?.,

Yup, had a race tonight where my brake pedal just stopped braking (while braking), and it didn't work ..

Quote from alco64 : .. until i took my foot off the accellerator and pressed it again.

Substitute accelerator with "pedal" in the above quote.

Not the first time it's happened, but it's been so rare i've not bothered to do anything about it yet.
