Does it detect in windows? (Step 2. from my previous post)

Windows self calibrates the wheel when you boot up Windows. (Well it does for me in XP, vista should be the same)

If you want to calibrate it in LFS, you only need to click recalibrate axes in Options || Controllers || Axes/FF menu. Then move all axes full motion. ie: Rotate the wheel to full lock left, then full lock right. Depress accelerate fully and release, same for brake and clutch.

While you are doing this you should see the sliders moving in available axes.


Once calibration is complete, see step 3 in my previous post. Assigne the correct axes.

Test you wheel actually works correctly. Go to this screen....

1. Windows START || Settings || Control Panel || Game Controllers

Select Logitech G25 Racing Wheel USB >> Properties

2. When you move the wheel physically does it move the wheel icon in here?



3. If it's being detected correctly in that screen above, then you haven't assigned it to the correct axis in LFS...
Options || Controls || Axis /FF


If you can't even get step 1. to work.....
What Windows version do you run, XP or Vista?
What version of the G25 drivers do you use?
Logitech Profiler || Help || About Profiler >> Version... (5.02.116)?
Have you tested the actual USB port you plugged your wheel into? Try a USB mouse or USB memory stick, see if the USB port really works.
Does the wheel fire up and self calibrate when you boot the computer? Like this.

Quote from Bean0 :

It could be done using parts of existing tracks, layout objects/checkpoints, and insim couldn't it ?

Yes true. If there were barriers that didn't throw you to the moon and a choice of fences/armcos objects then we would have enough to make really good touge courses. So we just need good barriers/fences objects really.

No that is not possible. Only way to share skins automatically via LFS is through LFS world. If you want this type of thing you will have to upload them yourself somewhere, and then provide people with the link, maybe a password protected FTP location or something. Or photobucket account with password access. =)

ha, yeah, weird stuff.

I made an XRT setup with ABS on in Z13.
Saved the setup.
Imported that setup to Z version
Drove at AS3 in version Z with that setup.
Made sure I slammed the brakes and ripped on the wheel
Saved that replay, (In version Z)
Played that replay back in Z13.
At the point I slammed the brakes the ABS kicks in 'cause the tyres go orange.
Then boom - replay OOS error.

I think this means patch is backwards compatible, but not forwards compatible. hehe, so lol. Personally I don't think this needs exact case needs to be fixed. It's a pretty convoluted way to crash the replay, not very common practice. But shows that version Z can transmit some sort of ABS related data to Z13.

edit:
Maybe not. Maybe the replay just dies because the Z13 version makes the car do something (physics wise) that didn't happed in actual Z version replay. I don't think version Z applies the ABS in practice. In Todshooter's case, I think his game instance on his end expects ABS to kick in for "havoc" so shows it on his (Todd's) screen. The guy who he is spectating - "Havoc" doesn't actually get ABS, and his tyres are probably locking up. Havoc's car does what it's supposed to do in his version Z, which is NOT get ABS function.

Here is a replay made in version Z with a setup made in Z13 with ABS on (brake assist is off). Play this back in Z13 you will get ABS kick in and then a replay OOS error at 30secs.

Now if you'd said "IE for facebook in your LFS so you can chat & drive while you 'T' chat & drive" you would have won this thread.

Quote from sinanju :

#Clanprotection



Can't you just password protect your server so that only people you give the password out to are able to get on?



Or does 'Clan protection' have some other meaning?

He means so only clan memebers can use the Tag in their nickname. A server password alone can't stop that. For an example, our CLC server only allows registered CLC team members to use a [CLC] tag in their nickname. If someone puts [CLC] as thier tag the insim app server boots them and prints the reason is "attempted hijackking", gets a laugh everytime.

@Becky Rose: I've spent two 12 hour shifts reconfiguring networks, my sense of humour is somewhat wonky. I read what I wrote and thought "no-one will get that & you will look like a lunatic" "delete" post.

Hope you have a nice day at the races. I'm very envious.

</OT> sorry.

nvm, my brain is mush today

step 1: Press T
step 2: skills....

Something to note, if you use arrow keys for anything like gears or steering, then they won't work in the F12 menu. So you have to hold SHIFT KEY to use the arrows in the F12 menu if they are assigned to other controls of any kind.

Maybe he meant the other type of 'drag'

hehe I lol'ed

Might not be relevant, but do you have a Microsoft Keyboard with the evil F-Lock key? If so, F.Lock must be on for function keys (F1-F12 keys) to work.

I swear they invented that key to kill productivity in the workplace. Almost every worker at my company has been disabled by this stupid key.

PSD files are for photoshop...(or GIMP) You can't drop them in LFS folders for LFS to use them. You MUST first make a skin with the Phototshop drawing program and save as JPG. This isn't complex stuff.

Just go over to the lfs skins forum. Here I took one quick look and found this for example.

MUCH better/sturdier design. But now it can't be called Rinoseat...
Have to call it Bullhorn or something.

Goodluck with new design

Quote from !!the king!! :

On Z13 i have fps 20 all the time and on 0,5 Z i have about 100. any solutions?

Well, try a fresh install of Z, test that again and update that one to Z13, maybe something in your LFS graphics settings got changed and you weren't aware. Also check out the shadows settings off/low res/high res. Improvements in the shadow quality might be effecting you FPS.
