Modern ABS can indeed stop the car faster than any driver possibly could. A person can't threshold brake as closely as ABS system can.
Only exception is with studded tyres on ice where locking the tyres is the fastest way to stop.

I know it, we can't create maps for LFS. But if we can, we gets more players = more money for LFS Team ?

Maybe. But...
1. The devs are fine moneywise
2. More money wouldn't speed up development anyway

Quote from danthebangerboy :

I know that, i was just thinking if the same could happen to me as before, in that the z5 patch i was running was made obsolete by the z8 patch, making me unable to connect to the server.

Don't use test patches if you are not ready for unforseen problems.

It's because brake discs are now drawn differently than before, hence they cannot be seen from behind.

Quote from Takumi_lfs :

Well, we already have a forum. Demo racers can also upload skins here, Unless you guys want to upload non-demo car skins

Well, demo racers are allowed to make and upload skins for the S2 cars here too

Aww

Quote from MR_B :

it did......... it doesn't anymore.....

Same here.

Quote from shiny_red_cobra :

I'm amazed that Eric bothered to make 2 separate textures, but didn't bother to make REAL holes in the disc.

Maybe because it looks silly when the wheels are rolling.

Quote from teamvarna :

How do I get the new car I VIEWER files and I want to have a version X, Z, Y am please help

Extract the viewer in to a different folder.

Quote from pjuniorbra :

I can play online now with the new car Volkswagen Scirocco, after decompress the file LFS Viewer 6A.exe

Um, what?

Quote from Nadeo4441 :

I got this error, maybe it is for my graphics card...(nV FX5700LE )

Are you sure you extracted all the files?

Cool.

Quote from pipa :

Getting a fatal error when i wanted to start the game, since i didnt update to wincrap xp sp3.

Well, update...

Quote from David 96 :

I'm bored on the demo and I don't want to do anything about it.

Aww. Though luck.

Check the actual amount moneybookers has for transaction. The exchange ratio might be different in moneybookers than the one you used to check before hand. Also as obsolum said, they might charge some additional fees.

If everything else fails, contact the LFS support here

Quote from [UKR] Race King :

So what if the lfs cars "look like real cars"?!?!That doesn't mean that it has real cars.

Well, in rFactor (and other sims) a real looking car is enough to make it real

CPU: 5,5
Memory: 5,0
Graphics: 2,1
Gaming graphics: 2,2
Hard Disk: 5,5

My GPU broke two days ago and my backup card sucks

Quote from Jakg :

It's iPod Touch - not iTouch.

Might not be it's technical name, but many people still call it iTouch. It's kind of a short nickname for it.

Quote from Woz :

This is the point I was trying to make there is actually a difference, it might be so infinitely small that it is ultimatly pointless

There is no difference. You are still thinking (subconsciously?) that the 9s stop at some point. They don't.
Zero, point and a huge amount of 9s is not the same as zero, point and infinite number of 9s.

Quote from Becky Rose :

So keeping are triple multiple of infinity, we divide by infinity: (3*infinity)/infinity=3
Of course we could argue that 3*infinity=infinity and infinity/infinity=1 but isn't that simply missunderstanding the concept of infinity?

Not in my opinion. Multiplying infinity with any number does not really matter because it will still be infinite. Also infinity/infinity probably equals infinity instead of 1, because infinity is not a set number. Infinity is really such a powerfull statement in any equation, there is not really any way of removing it after it has got there.

Quote :

I think reasonably it depends on whether you want a division by 0 to break your sum or whether you wish to carry on processing it with infinities. If you can't handle the division by 0 then you are constrained and prevented from ever having to (as a programmer I can argue lots of cases where it would be good if computers could handle infinity as division by 0 sucks).
Rather than avoid the problem and say division by 0 is undefined, isn't it better to tackle it head on and simply consider infinity as an endless array? So that instead of hiding from an unsolveable puzzle, we simply handle the puzzle with a new concept - that of infinity.

If computers could handle infinity programming would be easier for sure. But the thing is that there is not really much you can do with it. If it comes up as the result there is no way of representing it (except with a infinity sign) and if it was part of the equation the result would most likely be infinity.

Quote from Becky Rose :

Interesting point of view. But 0 in a multiplication is always 0, so doesn't this then become a question like where the brackets are in a big algebra statement - ie: what numbers is more significant, 0 or infinity? I guess by that logic, 0.

Doesn't really matter because if infinity would be more significant the result would be inifinity and if 0 was the more significant the result would be 0. Neither of those are 3.

Quote from J@tko :

Anything divided by 0 is infinty, even infinity.
So infinity/0 = infinity

The offical result with divison with zero is undefined. The result closes to infinity the closer you get to zero, but division by exactly zero is not defined.
Actually a simple proof on the undefideness is that if you would expect that for example 3/0 = infinity, then infinity*0 = 3 which is not a true statement. Therefore the first statement is wrong.

Quote from Becky Rose :

Ah that's because you are trying to imagine infinity as a physical thing, when in reality it's only a theory. Maths is theory.

That was exactly the point which I was trying to make.

Quote from Becky Rose :

False. Infinity is no harder to grasp as a concept than 0 .

Maybe it's just me then. For me it's easy to grasp concept of nothing or no offset.

Quote :

What, like that figure of 8 thing on it's side?

I meant the concept. I for one can't imagine a infinite amount of anything. I can imagine none, one, half, two thirds, two, hundread million, ... I can even imagine a negative as a offset in a coordinate system. But not infinite.
