OK, im on the city driving server. There are these to guys in front of me in FXOs. They are understeering on the corners, and driving like little old grannys. I accidently rear end one of them twice. I left to the pits due to some damage, and i say sorry for what i did.

The next thing i know, these to noobs are ramming the living shit outta me in the pits, not leaving me with anything to do. So, i call one of them out to a race. Settle it propaly. They reject it. Then all of a sudden, they start flaming me for no reason, and swearing at me. This really annoys me when i get sworn at, as i dont like fighting or argueing. So i retalliate like any other person would. I leave it, and walk away. Them still giving it the biggen.

They carry on ramming me as i try to drive like a normal human being. Then, they start making comments about my age, and how they 'arent scared of a 13 year old'. This really got to me, so i flamed them back. So what if im 13, i can still drive as good as anyone else on LFS, and obviously have a better attitude than most of them.

They vote ban me, shouting comments like 'ban the ****er' and 'the little bastard is only a noob kid who thinks he's hard'. Well, for someone who has hardly retaleated, im not really thinking im hard. I get ban voted out.

Now, this really pisses me off. I only crashed into him by accident, and didnt mean any trouble. Its idiots like this that ruin LFS. Sorry for the use of language btw. But im really annoyed now, and thats not what i need, during the things happening at home (i WONT go into that).

Ah, so you're the "harlen" my AIs keep on saying that their pals love wrecking.

Yay im well known! But seriously though, it does really get annoying.

Well, i decided to have a few runs on the rallycross. Just to make a change from driving through the standard Fern Bay over an over. It was actually very good, and really fun. So i decided to look for some servers, and take my new rally set against some real players. But i couldnt find any servers running a rally course. So, is it underated? Not many people seem to run it.

Is it only me that is constantly being wrecked by the AI? Whenever i race AI, they always wreck me, and they dont seem to notice me. I put this in the bug section, as i think they should be programmed to be aware of their surroundings, and use their brakes, not my bumper.

Dude why would you want rFactor? You betrayer!

Teehee im 13 and got a turbocharged Nissan 100NX... JDM ftw.

Yeh, i agree with the other guyz.

In the summer holidays, i went to Wales. I know this is a while ago, but i never really thought about claiming it back. But i was playing demo LFS (i didnt want to waste any of my unlocks), but i just got so bored of noobs wrecking, i spent an unlock. Later that night, the computer played up, and we had to send it back to the factory settings, therefore loosing an unlock.

Now i dont mean to sound like a noob, but can i have the wasted unlock back? I had it for about 4hours before we had to put down the PC.

Uuuum. No.

Quote from the_angry_angel :

In this particular case its a server side script, that appears to be written with php (I say appears because you could add the perl handler to deal with .php files, or anything), which takes the data in from the query string appended to the URL, processes the text from the query string, then using GD (or possibly imagemagick - it depends on the system) it converts the text into an image using some predefined math to position the text properly. The actual work to create an image isnt that tricky, as the GD/imagemacik libraries do all the hard work.

Its all a bit high in the sky, but thats basically how it probably works - if you're truely interested you may wish to pop your head around the programmers section - theres a fair few scripts and what-not available, and we can always poke you in the right direction.

To run PHP you need at least the following:
* A PHP interpreter, with the relevant extensions (such as GD)
* A text editor to write the script
* A browser to use the manual on php.net

Technically a web server isn't required as you can call a php executable with an additional argument of a script - but it means that it won't output via a web page.

Of course there are plenty of other languages that could've been used instead.

Thanks man, im gonna go to the programmer section now and have a look.

LOL

I agree lol.

Teehee

Sorry for the noobness, but how do you make these scripts? Ive seen loads that people have made, but i just dont know how. What programs, etc do you use. Cheers

Yeh, its such a great track to practice on. So many different corners, long, sharp, hairpin, 90degree...

Put it on a naked flame? Maybe a soldering iron, or welder?

OK, ill get a DFP then. The only reason i didnt want a G25, is because of the price. Otherwise, id get it. Thanks for the help guyz

Well, on my xmas list is a new wheel. Im not sure which one to get, but the Logitech Driving Force Pro seemed to appeal to me. Is it really worth buying though? Id get a G25, but im not rich.

Im looking for a wheel with about 900 degrees rotation, that can be adjusted. So, is it worth buying?

I know lol...

Youd be suprised how many times i go on drift servers to touge (yeh i know, there isnt a mountain. But you can still sorta), and people say to me 'WTF is touge'.

I love touge atm. So i thougt it would be great to have a downhill mountain touge track. It could be used as a drift track everyones been begging for to!

Anyone else love this server? I think the track is awesome, and the people on there are great sports. I would like to get in touch with the admins if possible. Does anyone know who they are?

I know this is an ulra noobish question, but does the Logitech driving force pro work on computers aswell as PS2? I want one for my PC, but every review i see is about the PS2.

Im in aswell...

Lmfao, 101 questions???
