yeah, but first time under braking the paint will go away really quickly

Quote from vane :

G force is relative to inertia and velocity isn't it?

"lateral acceleration" is u^2/r

"lateral force" is m*u^2/r

"g force" isn't exactly a scientific term.

oh well

in the city i'm in now, walking is faster than going by car o_O

hey TVE, fancy a guinness?

Quote from DEVIL 007 :

Try a grid of 20 AI or full grid at online racing and you could see how having support for multiple CPU cores could help.

cpu usage would go to 80-90%, possibly less if the cars aren't AI.

still not convinced LFS needs optimization now.

if, in the future, the engine gets upgraded, then that's the future and there will be more powerful CPUs.

i'm having difficulty not thinking you are being unnecessarily pedantic.

the CPUs out now = a cpu you can now go buy. like a phenom x2 II. which is quite cheap. in fact it is one of the cheapest current CPUs.

i get 50% cpu usage, of one core only, with 12 cars on the grid.

if that is not 'light', then... what would you consider 'light'? minesweeper?

Quote from DEVIL 007 :

I would not really agree here.
Put all the AI on track and then its not that light anymore.Or when someone have all A64 X2 3800+ and you are behind the whole field at start. The second core on this old processor which is not the fastest one could help if multithreading would be used in LFS.

That was just an example. I dont have this CPU.

you skipped the "considering the CPUs out now" i wrote.

unless you count the Atom in there, which hardly counts as a cpu for any kind of gaming pc.

"Ive being keeping up to date but bleach and naruto are dragging this shite out! "

just read bleach 364

oh shit oh shit oh shit oh shit!!!:eek:

oh they just arrived

close things you don't use in winamp (media library, file scanning, mp3 player support, blah blah blah)
turn of visualizations
minimize it
then run your game. how does it go?

multithreaded software may run faster on a cpu that has simultaneous multithreading (SMT). "hyperthreading" (an intel buzzword) is a light/lame version of SMT.

a single core that has some feature like that might benefit.

not lfs though, lfs is really light on cpu usage considering the CPUs out right now.

if you think you will upgrade it later on, ddr3. otherwise, ddr2.

wtf is revolt?

ffs dude, 4 clicks and you could have found out.

Quote from pärtan :

+1

for the love of god, no.

no

just... no

wtf are you thinking?

if you're into that sort of thing, go play ReVolt or something

about the ssc... one of the test drivers has said that there are some problems

like

wheelspin at 200mph

9l is small
you want the weineck cobra engine. 12.9L natural aspirated carburated 1000HP cobra.

and contrary to most others here, it looks like a car too

you don't need force feedback to do that

in fact, force feedback is output. not input.

when the brakes need more pressure to work, it is a matter of software, not hardware.

the feel of the pedal doesn't change much, if at all.

so, what am i supposed to do now?

Quote from the_angry_angel :

rfc1918.

well, the lan addresses in the network i am located are of the form 150.140.

it is a lan. we have a gateway and all. (ok i am not so sure about this bit)

what am i supposed to do now?

can't do vpn here.

why does it have to forbid using these IPs ?

hello?

lfs won't accept IPs like 150.140.z.z as LAN addresses.

well
i want to play lfs with a friend
we are at the university and the IPs we have are 150.140 etc
so i want to start a local host but it won't let me.
what do i do?

you mean crashing

Quote from dadge :

please tell me the rate at which the bits are transfered through the bus?

jesus
it is NOT 'bitrate'! noone but stubborn ignorants call it that way because instead of admitting their ignorance and adopting the correct terminology try to edge every bit of logic they have left to make their choice of words seem 'logical'. it is not a rate of bits! rate of bits is a notion that is valid only in a discussion where compression (usually) is concerned where you actually have a stream of individual bits. in a graphics card there are entire words dwords etc that are read at once. it is NOT a bit rate because the 128bit that you see does NOT talk about individual bits (like you have in an mp3) NOR does it talk about a RATE (which you have in an mp3. 32Kbps. 32Kilobits are transferred every second, exactly). it talks about the WIDTH of a DATA BUS. there are 128bits that are available to be read at every request. bitrate implies constant flow. buswidth does not have anything to do with 'rate'. it does not imply even a clock to exist. you are not forced to read it at every clock.

if you want to speak of these you gotta learn the language.

Quote from dadge :

my previous post is a good example why you should make sure you're awake before you post.

what? is that supposed to make me feel insulted? you called me a cock slammer earlier, what is this one going to do?

Quote from dadge :

look at a spec list for any graphics card and tell me where you would see the phrase "bit rate" but how many times did i say 256bit?

what does it have to do with anything in the discussion that you don't call things by their proper name?

Quote from dadge :

so forget what you know about graphics cards and put yourself in the OP's shoes. when you then look at the spec list (which i recomended) you then see the bus width and beside that it would say 128 (or) 256 (or) xxx bit. that's what i was talking about and you misunderstood me.

and how do you help the OP by naming that number as 'bitrate' ?

Quote from dadge :

i still stand by what i said. the bit "rate" of the bus width is one of the things to look at when buying a graphics card. surely i couldn't of fluked my graphics cards purchases for nearly 10 years?

bit rate of bus width?

what the **** can that possibly mean?

no, he said he made them.

café crème cigars are nice, they go really well with some aromatic filter coffee

what?
