What guy?

Quote from colcob :

I made my first foray into demo servers for ages recently, and I must say it wasnt what I expected.
I just randomly picked a server and found myself in what was apparently 'the Last All Fast Demo Server'. They had some kind of server side insim script that kept everybodies PB's, and if you couldnt do a 1.33.99, you got kicked.

Anyway, I hadnt raced GTI for months and only had race_1 setup to play with and could only manage a 1.35.00, but the nice fellows didnt kick me because my ill-gotten unofficial hotlap chart fame. Which was sweet.

It was like wandering into the wild west expecting lawless chaos and finding a little outpost of switzerland where the rule of law was ruthlessly enforced. Kind of cool really. I think it was a NOS team server.

Yeah that's my fav demo server the admins are pretty cool people and always willing to give you a decent setup.

Why let it get to you, there are far more frustrating things in life than LFS.
I see you are licensed, just play on licensed servers.

Dan.

Some times I get sick of the faster cars and I enjoy demo racing more beasue it's closer and more competitive.

I was playing in a Demo server before and this team called "IDI" would just sit at the first corner than ram the leader and attempt to ban them, they were succesful 2 times. then they rammed me and attempted to ban me saying I was a wrecker using their set quick keys and I got banned.

I have not been this frustrated at LFS before I punched the computer screen and hurt my hand. I just thought I'd share this with you so if you see an IDI member just ban the idiot.

Quote from Gunn :

Don't you mean "for all the Melbournians who like to encourage ethic stereotyping"? I think about 0.005% of forum members will understand maybe half of the localised "jokes", none of which are particularly humourous in the first place and very few of which are relevant outside the state of Victoria, including most of the slang.

Well I thought it was hilarious, and appealing to "0.005%" of the forum, I am in that 0.005% I thought it was great and I sent it to some of my mates and they thought it was great as well. You see lot's of videos about American's making fun of ricers so I don't see what the differance between that and this is only that it appeals to a diffrent audiance.

LMFAO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! That's one of the funniest things I've seen.

Quote from snewham :

Not really a near death experience but nearly made me S**T myself lol.

Went out to the local shops on my bike to get some milk cause my mum used the last of it up.

My front brakes have been dead for a while but I decided to still take it as I still had rear ones lol.

On the way back, going nearly top speed down a hill and some ford focus pulls out in front of me. I swerve to avid it, hit a lamp post and landed on my face in the road

Anyway, I survived with only a few bumps and bruises but could of been a lot worse.

Lucky for you I'm still here

That's pretty funny becasue almost the exact same thing happened to me, my mum woudln't drive me to the shop, so i got on my push bike with an already broken arm rode to the shop on the way home i have a big hill i have no front brakes only rears it was in the wet had a bag on the handle bars. Any way I was flying down this hill with this car infront of me some little white suzuki and the lady driving it without using the indicator pressed her brakes fairly hard to pull into her drive way, my first reaction was to pull the brakes, remember i'm riding with a broken arm and the back wheel locked up and i was realy not expecting it, it slid out sideways so i let go of the brake and it gripped and threw my off I landed on my broken arm again, and broke it further it still hasn't healed properly it's been over a year and I rolled two times then I lost count, and I just remember opening my eyes watching my bottle of coke rolling past me and the lady helping me up then driving me home.

Quote from Mekaza Bitrusty :

I was just wondering if anyone knows of an importer of race tracks? I am only interested in the V8 Supercars Mt. Panorama track.

I wish it was possible i'd love to take the uf1000 around bathurst.

I drive on the RHS I tried to drive LHS but it looked like I was falling out the car.

Quote from sdimm88 :

I saw that there has been a LFS tweak for the S1 version of LFS and I wonder if there is one for S2 or if someone is working on it?

Are your glasses dirty?

Quote from Scawen :

Could some people please stop thinking that the only reason they don't get physics updates is because of hotlaps. SPRs and hotlaps being made invalid are only one reason. But i'm seeing the same thing mentioned all over the place, some myth that hotlaps are stopping people getting new physics updates.

If there is any change in physics, there is an ONLINE COMPATIBILITY issue. Old physics and new physics cannot join together. Some people will download the test patch, and some people will upgrade their hosts. So then the people with the new version, would be all alone in their sub-community of people who like to get incompatible test patches. So then they'll say "we like the new physics" and some other people will start to get the new patch. Meanwhile, the people who never heard about the new patch, will wonder where everyone's gone. Then we'll discover a bug in the new physics so hundreds of people will be annoyed that they got the test version and didn't wait for the final version. Then a new patch will come out with some more improvements. People will wonder whether they should get the new one or not.

Then what you can't imagine is the anger that starts to be stirred up. Posts all over the web on different forums and shout boxes "why are there so many stupid patches" and "what is wrong with these developers". For some people it's a big effort to download a patch, and it makes them angry and uneasy.

Compatible test patches are very easy, get them if you want to, no disruption to the community. So it makes sense to do as many compatible things as possible (which need to be done anyway - it's bad when people can't type in their own language) before starting on and releasing physics changes, changes to car models and tracks, and other online compatibility changes. Anyway, how could i code physics changes, at the same time as updating the language support? I can only do one thing at a time.

So, as we always say, and as we have learned from experience, incompatible patches are kept to the minimum, due to the community distruption they cause. Compatible test patches can be released freely and that's the time when many game updates are done. When i'm working on the incompatible things, you probably won't hear from me for a few months, as i'll just be focussed on those very difficult things, and there won't be anything to test until several things are done.

Two cats running sideways.

I think a 10mile stretch of road with an adjustable finish line would be pretty cool, most of you may think it's pretty pointless but with 20 cars all trying to draft each other at 300km and people flipping crashing into the wall out of control would make a pretty entertaining race.

Wouldn't let me space them out so it's a bit hard to read.

I did this a few days after I did the 1/4 times cars 0-100km/h (62.15mph) and 0-160km/h (99.44mph) times with defult setups.

FXO GTR - 10:88

XR GTR - 11:63

Fz50 GTR - 10:99




Note: I had two attempts at each one and chose the best time.

I would personaly hate to see real cars in LFS, all it would do is cause 3,000 13 year olds wanting skylines with big exsausts and spoilers.

I play a fair bit of demo racing, I use to enjoy racing the XRGT against the XFGTI but the thing is the XRGT always won, so the GTI was increased by 4kw, now the gti is getting 1 second faster lap times and it's totaly one sided again. Any way my idea is to increase the XRGT power by 2kw jusyt to even them out again.

I'd personaly hate to see more real cars in Live for speed, every one will be requesting new cars and there will be arguments that they aren't simulated close enough to the real version. About 100 13 year olds would request skylines and body kits ect ect.

I say keep the cars they have now, they're diffrent, they're good and they're original.

I noticed if you have your foot down 50% of the way at 6500rpm you only get half the psi pressure to what you would at full throttle and 6500rpm.

Don't turbo's run off the exsaust? so 6500rpm would have the same amount of boost no matter what amount of throttle because it's the same amount of exsuast pressure.


Note: Not exactly sure where the turbo psi is messured from.
