Don't be afraid of reporting people. It doesn't matter if you sometimes make a false report, that's why there are trained professionals watching the reports so they can make decisions based on them. Besides I haven't seen them complaining about excess amount of reports yet.

You could try HIIT. I hear you will lose a lot of weight in a short time and it doesn't even take much time of your day.

Quote from CSU1 :Give demo users the LX4 - simple as, after driving thousands of demo miles in the LX, the demo racers will be little flyers=)

Fixed.

Quote from obsolum :If I remember correctly Pitspotter no longer works with Patch X.

It does work now. Gai-Luron made a X compatible version of it. It's part of the LFSRelax pack of his.

Quote from Austin31287 :Can someone help explane? How i can get it to work because there is 3 folders and were are they meant to go

^- write like that in the future, it's understandable.
Quote : i am only insulting people who insulting me

Don't do that. It doesn't help, it will just make more people angry and more people will start to insult each other. That's the way wars start.

Quote from trackah123 :so people that cheat in the demo can also be banned by ip
maybe a "signing up for a free demo-account" isnt such a bad idea?

You can already ban by ip in the demo.
Signing up for the demo wouldn't help much. There isn't anything stopping people creating a new account everytime their previous one gets banned or something.

It's normal to have muscle twitches once in a while. Infact a normal person has some twitching everyday, it's just it often goes unnoticed if you are doing something else or it's in a muscle you don't really notice. Magnesium defiancy is what usually causes it. Anyway no need to worry if it doesn't happen all the time or for long periods of time.

PS. I had once had a twitch in my eyebrow for ~2 weeks straight, that was annoying

Quote from isamu :Hello. Did patch X fix the "slippery tires at low speeds" problem? I tried playing the game about a year ago and just couldn't continue due to extremely low grip at slow speeds. I would spin out even at 20mph

There are no physics changes in X (except clutch pack preload). The tyres were tweaked back in patch U already (april 06). Besides the tyre physics don't work very well at low speeds. Also why were you driving that slow anyway?

Quote from geeman1 :Last night when I was driving there.

Quoting myself is fun

Anyway, I just wanted to say that today the rules seemed a bit more formed already. More people seemed to have grasped the difference between wrecking and bumping people now.

Quote from Becky Rose :On the B&J server, it is perfectly within the rules to spin another car - what isnt acceptable is ramming people into barriers or wrecking them. We ellected not to call it banger racing because most of LFS sees the word banger and reads the word wreckfest and starts driving like idiots. It's actually a lot more fun, and usually gives better results, to try to drive properly - but we've no problem with contact on the bump and jump server, that's what the bump part of the name is.

Last night when I was driving there, there seemed to be a lot of confusion what exactly is considered acceptable. Some people were overreacting to small bumps and nudges and on the other hand some people were doing what could be considered wrecking. I especially disliked when people tried to ram through a tight spot even when it was obvious that they can't get through when we were racing on the Champange layout.

To be honest the rules aren't very clear on what you are allowed to do and what you are not.

I Race 3 server!

The GT2 class is so greatly balanced. Very different cars, but still very close racing.

That wouldn't work like I would want it to. I would have to add all servers to the favorite list to see them all. That asking for S2 servers and then asking for S1 servers would work just great, just don't clear the list inbetween, only add the S1 servers in the mix on the right spots.

Quote from wabz :Not really. When we request the server list from the master server, we specify what version we want, and we can't ask for both. It would be possible to ask for S2 and then S1 servers, but I really don't see much point in doing that.

Ok. It's just that now that CTRA is back and the LX competition servers are S1 too it's a bit of a nuisance to first refresh S2 servers and then refresh S1 servers to see which servers are available. It would be nicer if they could be both refreshed with just one button press and then they would be listed on the same list. It would be easier to decide what server to join when you could see all possible servers at once.

I was sent sliding and I think I hit the tyres on left side and was thrown rolling.

Quote from Clintcom :ts the same login as my Forum one right?

No, it's a different password. To unlock the game you need the GAMEpassword. If you have forgotten it, log in at LFS main page and you can change your GAMEpassword there with your WEBpassword.

3rd lap, before the eau rouge, I braked, the person behind me didn't (not enough atleast) -> uncontrolled sliding -> uncontrolled barrel rolling -> totaled right shock -> End of Race.

It was fun for the while it lasted. Hopefully SO goes a bit better.

It is possible and could be done, BUT JPG is already implemented, it literally supported on all software and OS' and most importantly it works. Don't fix it if it isn't broken.

I am not a fast FZ5 or RAC driver, but I don't think weight makes helps on a track like AS Nat that much. It's mostly long flatout straigths so power is more important than weight. So if you are trying to balance these cars you would probably be better of limiting the power of FZ5.

Quote from J.B. :So switch off the adblock firefox nerds!

On a side note Adblock by itself doesn't block those banners on the lfsforums. They are not even blocked if you use the block list from pierceive.com (they have a great auto-updating block list add-on there too). So the user has to make conscius decision to block those banners if they are currently blocking them.

Small details like this will probably be left for S3.

0.6 seems the most likely choice. Altough, it could be reserved for a significant change, like S2 going final. I guess we will just have to wait and see
