Sorry Jakq but after all the threads and all the stuff you say you wanted and then you go a pick this (nothing wrong with the car) you have no idea what you want.
Buy the damn car and never make a thread about buying cars again.
Looks like you need to do more than a little re-wiring to get that to work, so you'd have to take the DFP apart anyway (which would help you remove the gear knob)
How does it connect to the DFP's gear lever switches/wires/connectors?
Problem is that if you skimp on the wheel you will lose out on the plus points it brings to the game(s). You can use the wheel for other games as well.
Second hand Logitech momo or driving force pro (if you can find one with your £) would probably be your best bet.
As for tuts for driving the bigger cars, the bigger cars really need a progressive throttle, like a pedal. Basically you need time driving them, there is no short cut. Driving the less powerful RWD drive will help.
No. LFS doesn't make use of multi-cores. With the newer CPU's the architecture makes them run things better, don't use the ghz's as a performance comparison marker (like you could in the good old days). And RAM really won't help at all with FPS, thats more for load times.
You just need a newer system, nothing special at all.
Can't remember about the change log but as the z'ds go up assume so does the usage requirments. From what you've been saying it wouldn't take much to tip your system over the edge.
The important bits of mine that will make a difference to LFS FPS, Intel e6750 (2.66ghz) and a 8800GS graphics card, everything maxed out and no FPS isssues at all.
.....it should at least run LFS a bit better than that, what grahics card to you have? You could trying giving your system a good clean up, not with a hover! I mean running spyware, anti-virus, clean up software, defrag (meh, I know) loads of stuff.
Obviously make sure you're not running anything else, MSN and the like, will cost you a few FPS.
Yeah but the incident was an accident, if anything you caused it then wanted someone else banned for it.
You got a ban for swearing, taking into account your history a decision was made on the length of time which you don't think is fair.
Instead of politely asking for clarification or a shortening of the ban you've started multiple threads, many, many posts insulting the people who take time and money out of their lives so you have a server to race in.
Why should they listen you to you after that, why should they let you race?
You want a specific rule that defines the length of a ban, they don't have them. They use their derision, taking the users history and each incident into account.
It sounds like you've been watched for a while now. Your attitude after the incident was bad, it seems to continue now, you feel you've been wronged and are shouting to anyone who will listen and not listening to anyone.
Why would they want you back in their server after this? I wouldn't. They don't have to let you race their.
Popular server + people getting banned = millions of threads here with massive arguments that never end.
You got banned from a server, take up in the correct place.
OMG - You hit the barriers which put you into traffic (they couldn't avoid you), then the collision detect bug fired you into the air. No one wrecked you, no one should be banned it was just an accident. Then called for an admin to ban someone for nothing. The car's that hit you were the innocent party, there was no way they could avoid you, if you hadn't hit the barriers yourself no of that would have happend.
You got the ban for swearing.
What should have been you pitting and re-joining has now turned into a ban, well done.
He is just giving him self the best chance in WRC he can. Subaru don't compete anymore and they we're out classed in the end when they did (unfortunately).
Not really got a car choice but I'd go with myabe £1500 to £2000 on the car, use the last £1000 (or more) for insurance. I swallowed hard and paid mine off in one go and it saved me about £150.
Also think about parts, depending on the make the price could go up quite high.
Rallying needs a kick in the ass, x-games is not rallying but for some of those guys to go to WRC or some WRC guys to x-games, how freaking awesome would that be.
Just think is Loeb had thought, I wonder how far I can jump this ****er!
Rallying needs some personality, these guy brings it (yes, they tend to be annoying Americans) but at least they have a personality.
