The F08 Is certainly harder than the FOX but i have to say the F08 is a damn lot easyer (for me!!!) to get a lap out of than the LX6 (and its baby brother). They may not be particulary fast laps but they tend to be on the road (facing the right way) than (LX6) facing the wrong way on the gravel/grass (usually knackered).

FOX = FUN
F08 = HARD(ER) but MORE FUN
LX6/4 = AAARRRGGGGHHH!!!! (pulling wheel off desk)

just saying

ps this is not a point to start an argument its just a veiw (so sorry if it offends).

Quote from hardcoreobscure :Hey

This is my first attempt at skinning so advice / criticism is what I need. I realised after I finished that u can skin in higher res, hopefully when I get the time ill update this to max res as I only chose 512*512 DOH! :banghead:

Anyway here it is Skyline influenced but I just made the design up myself then added logos and tried to keep it simple for my first go!



Thanks in advance - J

It quite nice could you post the template?

Okay i got hacked off with it yesterday and called in support (stax dad, always helps to have a pc tech in the family). I had it in bits and tried different ram and older cards to no avail. I was going to do a blank and rebuild but could not be arsed.

Killed of alot of things booting up using msconfig (i love that tool), still nought happened. much anger on my part.

So deleted LFS and did a fresh Download and install. And walla (did not have to unlock for some reason but cool) much better frame rate. Thanks for all your help.

one question tho. why does blackwood have a really bad frame rate compaired to other tracks?


ps tried the sound card thing and got worse frame rate for disabling hardware support. but changed to normal instead of full and that seems best. thanks for that.

thanks for all the help gouranga and be happy.

merry humbug

Quote from the_angry_angel :Are you sure you're port forwarding properly? i.e. to the right local ip, and the right ports (dont forget LFS needs TCP and UDP).

ICMP (Internet Control Message Protocol) is usually used by ping, and a few other apps. Its not needed to be open.

ports 29339 and 63392 both tcp and udp, are both routed correctly
and these are the ports that i have lfs set for (well 63392, the 29339 was one that was recomended)

Quote from MadCatX :Are other games running OK? I don't know what is 6600LE, but whatever it is, it MUST be able to run LFS smoothly. run 3DMark03(http://www.futuremark.com) and post your results. Also try to send us your WHOLE system spec(Motherboard, Soundcard, driver versions....). I think we'll be able to help you.....


Thx for correction...., I gonna update my knowledge...

here are my sytem specks

Quote from the_angry_angel :I'd hazard a guess its likely to be the 6600le. They're not known to be the best cards in the word - admitedly I havent had one, but they're supposed to be fairly slow. With the transparent windows now in LFS this *could* cause a problem. In theory.

A few solutions:
  • start playing with graphics settings in LFS - there could be a setting combination for you in there
  • temporarily swap out the 6660LE with a friend and see if you can get any change in performance
  • Out of interest, is the AGP slot running at full speed? That should be an 8x card.
Do these problems always occur? Or does it get worse over time?

Over time, Ive played with the settings (i would have gone better GFX but all my retailers around me suck). I have put the priority on LFS up to "Realtime" and get arounds 5-10 FPS better but its a strange one as i can play a server thats packed and it runs great, log out turn off pc and then come back on a while later, again back to the same server with all the same drvers and its 5-10FPS time.

Would updating to PCI-x give any better performance or just a CPU upgrade do it?

Have done all the nat (napt) and disabled firewall to no avail. Asked my ISP about online gaming and they said that they fullysupported gaming (and claimed to have no internet barring inplace).

I load up a dedi server (or a non dedi it dont matter) log onto it(either by ip (dedi) or by running it). and i get my frendon the phone saying that he cannot connect, the few who get further all i get is "Guest timed out". My fire wall was at fault for a lot of my games but i sorted it, giving LFS and VIETCONG full accsess, even to ICMP (whatever that is).

Getting annoyed, the games best feater is online play against friends.

Any further help would be great.
Stax to all you have helped thus far.
Much appretiated, the more ideas going around will eradicate the problem

I am using a router and I have al the ports open that need to be open, but still my online games connect fine (even tho if i use dedi i have to use an ip to join) but the problem is that none of my friends can join the games. It bugs as the guys who got me into this game are the ones i wanna play.

my fire wall prog is allowing the ports as well. I an connecting using the default ports any others all have the same problem. I just wanna play games with my friends. Pleasse HELP
