what is the full text of the red message?

In insim the "racelaps" variable has a double-use for the different modes LFS has: practice (no limit) and race-length via laps or time limit:
// RaceLaps (rl) : (various meanings depending on range)

// 0 : practice
// 1-99 : number of laps... laps = rl
// 100-190 : 100 to 1000 laps... laps = (rl - 100) * 10 + 100
// 191-238 : 1 to 48 hours... hours = rl - 190

So a change would break existing insim scripts, replay parsers etc for little gain.

Oh, yet different idea:
I googled this "Uncheckitprogram" mentioned in your hosts file. To me it looks like a malware-blocker that itself is malware. It is hard to even find the homepage of that program because all results are about "how to remove it."
The entries it added to hosts file seem okay but who knows what else it does. I'd get rid of that and possibly reinstall OS.

/edit
definately virus:

random guess: in your router's setting try changing IPv6 to IPv4 (or other way around)

because the videos have non-demo content before having bought license and that makes modified game seem likely cause.

great, thanks.
after copying the file to server it instantly worked. (did not even need to do the ?force_load url thing)

---
also with this replay of a 24h race lots of things went wrong:
http://abnl.racemore.de/mpres/league/DOP24h/1/R01/r/
It looks like only the starting drivers of a team are listed. (plus possibly first drivers after rejoin from garage)

Quote from Racon :what are the chances of a random download error creating a collision?

zero.
random download errors are not a problem: In worst case the installer does not work and you wasted a bit time and have to re-download.

Problem would be a purposefully altered file (for ex: inserted virus) that with tricks could have the same md5 as the original. But imo as said: a very theoretical problem.

Quote from Racon :If even one single bit is changed in the file, the md5 won't match. What else is there to care about in this case?

The problem is that the md5 hashes are not unique: Two files can in theory have the same md5. With some fiddling it is possible to purposely create two different files that have the same md5. See the entries on this blog:
https://natmchugh.blogspot.de/2014/10/how-i-made-two-php-files-with-same-md5.html
For practical purposes it would be more difficult though.

Quote :think of it like wearing a seatbelt,

imo it is more like wearing a seatbelt in a car with airbags BUT not wearing a helmet. Everybody can in theory think of a serious crash scenario where the helmet might give you extra protection, but in 99% of cases the seatbag and airbags are good enough. And in the 1% cases the helmet might not even matter.

Hi
These replays of event 6 do not parse:
http://abnl.racemore.de/mpres/league/S3/3/
The page says:
Quote :Fehler: (0.6R)

Maybe mpRes needs update for new LFS version?
I attached two 0.6R mpr files if you need to test..

On sundays there have been practice races during the previous seasons. Basically you can drive the excat same races just without the championship standings.

For other events on sundays see: https://www.lfs.net/leagues/calendar
(eg AB league and currently AWS series)

Quote :if I'm right the only leagues available are S3 (As in Season 3, or S3 License..?) and Formula League (What type?)

S3 league = all cars and tracks of LFS (with some limits: no rallyetracks etc)
Cup = seperate championship every third sunday. currently it is FBM Cup with sprint & main races.
In past there were Rally Cups, F1, Fz5 with success-ballast,..and other such stuff that is bit different formats.

K.Kivilo :
I think races are usually very clean, but with GTR cars there is always potential for "surprises." cu Smile

I do not always spend two hours tweaking my race setup.
But when I do, half the time goes into finding good rim color.

No race today because of the ongoing 24h DOP.
Of course servers can be used for practice, upcoming race next sunday 29th is:
XRR & FZR at Westhill International

Look at tracker and LFS-remote. Order is hard to say because it still rotates with the pitstops. In tracker you can click the teams to see when they did last stops. (most teams drive bit over an hour between stops)

NZG vs WCL is very close now with same times since last stop

it looks like on the "live progress" it did not update the laps after rejoin.
-BC-Nirma has 36 laps on "live progress" and 68 laps in remote (in tracker too)

Did you make copies of these folders?
data\setups
data\layout
data\skins
If yes then just copy them into the new install.
If you had custom textures or other stuff, then also copy it into the new install and overwrite the existing files.
