Quote from Blas89 :

Yeah why people doesnt speak Spanish xD well when other people speak another languagge i just stay there trying to learn something and if is german i say "bümsen" or "tchuess" when i gotta go xD, hardly to know

yo hablo espanol ;P
pero no muy bien y escribier es mas dificil

it's very practical if you can understand many languages, and if you learned latin at school you know even more ;D

Quote from duke_toaster :

I speak some German but not enough to understand people talking on TS and i can understand some on text chat.

Maybe the LFS community could make a sim racing phrasebook lol.

As for automated translation, once I translated an Italian recipe and it came out with bullshit.

Ok let's start with a common phrase:
"Beweg deinen Arsch von der Strecke" -> "Move your ass out of the way"

Quote from Woz :

I would prefer they remove the electronics and make the race about skill instead of computer control.

LFS without computer Oo illepall

I agree!

GrandlHuber shiFt not shit

Quote from RoCkBiGdAvE :

But then someone sits afk, on their last lap, at T1... Not fun, especialy if kick/ban is turned off and no admins are online.

But +1 for the idea (when people aren't afk)

No restart while someone is on a lap faster than his current best lap or the lap of the last driver who qualified?

this has already been discussed many times

Quote from Hyperactive :

If the outcome of the poll has basically no effect on anything, why there would be a need for the poll anyways?

To stop people spamming "+1"

Is "Do not post your new improvement suggestions here! This also isn't a discussion thread about the suggestions! Comment the suggestions in their own threads, thank you." invalid since a week? ^^

Quote from BlakjeKaas :

A pit crew would be OK. But it sucks.

Let me explain:
You go in pit, somebody else also wants to go in pit.
LFS doesn't have auto-steering while in pit (thank God)
But what about the people driving through the pit crew members...
You just drive through it, and I hate it...
I don't know if it's that cool to have...
(Especially if auto-sterring while in pit is needed)

just give a drive-through to the driver who killed your pit crew

(pic made by Matrixi? )

(IMG tags removed by Gunn? )

considering the devopement speed of s2 there should be an "S2" on the stone, not "S3"

Scawen as you have implemented those minimap changes... wouldn't it be possible to use the same setting for the virtual starting light? It's very often hidden under some chattext.

Quote from zmbi :

sorry but thats to complicated for me ^^. Could some one write it for me? would really awsome.

write what? a tutorial?

download patch U30 from here and then just go to the control options page ingame and click on the "alt +" button in the middle. then you choose one of the free fields on the left klick on it and enter "/shift n". after that you click on the corresponding field on the right side and press your wheel button.

what was the problem?

didn't scawen already wrote something about a new reset-system but he can only implement it in an incompatible patch?

Quote from Blowtus :

Ok, then it's not a bug. I found it a little disconcerting, but I like the map on the left anyway I decided If you wanted to avoid the jumping back and forth with it (first lap of qual it is on the right, then moves to the left) it would make sense to me to have it start on the left always in qual. But quite minor I guess

There is an option to lock the map on the left side.

What Nascar Track?!

Use the

Quote :

struct MsgToConn // 64 chars - send to LFS and on to a chosen connection (0 = host)
{
char Id [4]; // MTC + zero
byte Conn; // connection
byte UniqueId; // destination player UniqueId : if set, Conn is ignored
byte Sp2;
byte Sp3;
char Msg [64]; // text message or /command, must end with zero
};

With conn = 0 if I remember correctly

Quote from Gimpster :

How diffacult woudl it be to to read engine RPM and Throtle position to generate a sound like the one in the video and then feed it back inplace of the original to the sound system?

Outgauge wouldn't provide the resolution required sadly, there would be lag. The best method, imho, is the audio equivelant of what Kegetys did with the ghostcar app. Hijack directX and find a way to divert the engine's audio layer through an external app which would apply the effects, render and return to output. IIRC, directx provides classes for rudimentary reverb and lp effects, which can be hardware accelerated as well.

Have you looked in the "LFS carsound expansion" thread in the movie section?
There is already a programm, which adds additional engine sounds based on outsim data to BF1,FZR and XRT.

Imo a 10 minutes race is the best length

Quote from ORION :

shift+F4, doubleclick Firefox icon (you click IE icon ;P) select lfsworld.net, click skins icon, select file, click upload, race.

alt+tab is faster imo

BTW, I don't know how it is in Croatia, but sending money by regular mail is prohibited by most countries post offices...

I'm pretty sure no one officially checks if there is money in your mail

he means scripts triggered by these events

i like it, but now its telling me my PM box is 98% full!

Quote from axus :

I quite like the new quote system with the View post button and the mutli-quote option.

Quote from Hyperactive :

That multiquote seems quite nice, would have gone unnoticed without axus

omg that is awesome ;D

Why don't you just drive one lap and then the hotlap?

yeah more "not regular" triangles would be good =)

and perhaps you could even add an option to zoom the minimap? like zoom in but leave it in the upper corner or to zoom it fullscreen for a better overview when spectating?
