Quote from deggis :What do you mean? The quality is always the same, it's just takes longer or shorter time to download.

Resizing to a lower resolution is a loss of quality IMO.
I don't know about filefront, but comparing youtube with google video, google video uses (or used to use, dunno how it is now) a slightly higher resolution than youtube, which meant a better quality (at least in my terms of understanding quality), but therefore longer download times.
(Don't think, my definition of quality is only resolution though)

That should be "We have a lift off"

Youtube works fine for smaller bandwidth connections, such as mine. Of course, the more bandwidth you have, the better the quality can be, but I'd still prefer a low-res version anywhere, that doesn't needs hours of buffering.

PS: Dalek, why did you steal SlamDunk's avatar?

First of all: very nicely done!
Second: I would approve of a version with those fake-belts, they may not look very realistic, but at least a bit better than drivers without belt

Quote from tim.ellis :- snip -

I go by that nickname in real-life too, so everybody who knows me should be able to recognize me. Also it's quite a bit shorter than my full name and makes it easier to type, so there's no intention to hide behind that name or to look cool by choosing my nickname instead of my full name, it's just to make it easier for me
You have your nice and short "Tim Ellis" oppossed to my "Michael Herkommer"; I hope you get my point.

Anyway, nice first post

Quote from XCNuse :Dunno, I remember there being one of these before though, I can't remember, it might have been someone else.

P.S. There is still such thing as useless offtopic threads.

P.S.S. I still don't really see much resemblance.

P.S.: It's P.P.S.. Like in "Post Post Scriptum", not "Post Scriptum Scriptum"

It didn't seem as an insult to me anyway, more like an evil humor, which I appreciate, and seemingly Ian sees that the same way, not as a personal offence

Quote from MAGGOT :[EDIT] Anyone know what the prize purse is for this event? Is it sorta like LeMans where it's mostly about the pride in finishing with a small payout, or does it have a larger purse? I understand this event is not as "pro" as LeMans is, in relative terms, so it may have a small purse regardless, but I mean in comparison to the rest of the VLN races and so on.

It's practically only about finishing, just the drivers with the blue lights have real ambitions for the overall win, also mainly for the prestige. Because of the vast amount of classes they have there, a lot of people have chances to win their classes, but as I said - 24h Nordschleife is mainly about finishing, you can see that if Team A decides to push Team B the last 10km, even if they're rivals, just so Team B does count as finisher
If you wondered about the blue flashing lights: The 20 fastest of the training get them, so the slower drivers can tell more easily if that's a really fast car that is about to lap them

Something like the music addon pack, might be nice to see LFS' standard textures in high-res done by Eric. I'd rather have him do the car models first though ;p

Quote from Infiniti :Okay LFS fans,

I am in Germany for an exchange student program and my host lives in Dortmund. Next week we are planning to go the the Indoor karting arena that I guess used to be the largest in Europe! If you want to come, or if you can tell me anything about the place (requirements, how much it cost, and how fast/powerful the karts are) just drop a comment here. I think it may just be my host and I and mabe my best friend and his host. I think we will do it either on a Friday or Saturday. I will be in Dortmund until June 20th. Then I leave for Munich for 4 days. Just for a FYI, Deutschland ist wunderbar! and I have been living the teenage culture... drinking beer, going to Diskos, and flirting with European women!

Agreeing on german beer being better than american beer?
Too bad I'm far away from Dortmund, I can't give you any advice

I loved Olaf Manthey's comment just now:
"Now that the race is red-flagged, and the cars are collected at the start-finish-straight, parc ferme rules apply, meaning that nobody is allowed to work on the cars. And those guys in the blue vests are there to make sure nobody actually works on the cars." - some mechanic points at the monitor and says something Olaf - "But because they can't control it well, there are no parc ferme conditions "

What was basically told the last time: Some drivers got it in pits even before the race was red-flagged, because it was too dangerous to drive; there even were drivers outside who didn't know where they were (i.e. didn't know about the next corner) and stopped with hazard lights.

edit: 4:28AM - something happend ... Some kind of security car drove along the start-finish-straight

Quite foggy out there

As for the onboard footage - you'll see more during the daytime I bet. Too bad they don't seem to do it during night.

edit: Oh, red flagged because of the fog; let's see what happens next
