oooof here we go again

amount of memory won't be of any help.
as long as it's 512MB, or more, you are... ok (just tried and lfs with 12 FBMs has 244MB peak working mem)

loading the game will be slower (since whatever is loaded will have to be swapped out to the hdd which is a slow process), the less ram you have, but the fps you will get eventually will be more or less same, no matter if you have 512MB or 12GB

what's with you, shadow, bose? is it because he's a demoer?

i would gladly give you some ideas about that

when, in the near future, you decide to start it, we'll be here for suggestions to save you some monies

having sustained oxygen deprivation and possibly smashed your head on the ground

yeah sounds like fun

also:

if you snore, your brain gets less oxygen than it should, which is bad, because the mechanisms that correct such things do not work while sleeping, only when awake

what parts are getting worn?

haven't seen an electric motor that somehow loses its power with use.

maybe it needs some lubrication after all

if i say "somewhere on the motherboard" will you reply with "what's that?" or something?

...

it might be covered with plastic or something.

the battery is the shinny round thing you see in the pic above.

different suspension geometry might feel different... but it's probably that you're getting used to it. :/

just for kicks, reinstall the drivers

what else do you have connected on your pc with USB?

physics calculations still need to be done, methinks.

it's not the "driving thinking" that the cpu needs to do. it's the physics engine.

and just so that you don't get the wrong impression that i just want to be a buzzkill

you can get 2GB of ddr266 on it working, maybe, but it (the extra GB) won't help lfs. if you manage to use higher clocked ram (ddr333 is the max that chipset supports and i'm talking about 2x512 now) and drop the latencies, you might gain a bit of performance. also, the fastest cpu that mobo supposedly supports is the 2.6 northwood which is not any faster than your current cpu.

may i suggest you sell this pc for peanuts and with those peanuts buy a new one?

a phenom II x2 even the cheapest one that is like 65 gbp is leaps and bounds faster than what you have
coupled with a mobo that supports ddr3 (100gbp) you will
  • have a shinny new machine
  • get faster performance even with on board gpu
  • be open to upgrades later on
just sayin'

you don't have a cpu powerful enough for 20 AIs.

that's it.

first of all the view is quite different between real life and LFS
second, many real car speedos are like 10kph off

a p4 can't handle 20 bots.

no, do not remove the battery.

near the battery there will be a jumper with "CLR" or "CMOS" or "RST" under it.



you turn off your computer, take out the blue thing you see in the pic and connect it to the two other pins (2-3) for a second and then put it back to where it was (1-2)

Quote :...and stop shitting in your PC senninah25, it's a very bad habbit

no, it isn't EDIT: well, ok, it's a bad habbit, but not a bad choice when running out of ideas and the pc is stubborn LOL

my father, ooooold coder, on the phone:

"good evening... yes, everything here is fine... oh... i'm listening... yes... yes... ah... well i can't be of much help from the phone but... try wiggling the cabl-- oh... i see... Well you can try something... turn it off and whack it, not too hard but enough... yeah... ok i'll be waiting"

hangs up and tells me "naaaah... they won't possibly try it..."

5 minutes later, phone rings

"Yes? Yes... oh, did it?... Ahahaha, good! now immediately get an external drive and start copying files... yes... well, glad to have been of help!"

do a lap with 1 AI then with 5 and finally with 10. observe the CPU usage each time.

that way you will know if it's the cpu due to the AIs

Go on...



...make its day.

but srsly? sounds like your hardware is dying. either the mobo or the psu. hopefuly none

wait... you said it works in safe mode but not properly? which means that the vid card might fail when its driver gets loaded but work with the generic driver (Without acceleration).

i'd look into that. maybe.

the law dictates what lane you may or may not use

in greece you may only use the rightmost lane that is available.

so if the right lane is free, you may not occupy the middle or left lane.

this particular discussion is like the favorite trollfest/flamewar subject in greekforums.
