This just seems to be a massive flaw in the HLVC system.. the whole green tarmac area at T1 is HLVC valid

He stole my audience

My G25 pedals started playing up recently (potentiometers going), so I claimed on the warranty.

I had to send proof of postage and the picture of the steering wheel itself, and I asked if I would accept a G27 (at NO EXTRA COST) because the G25 was 'no longer available' (I dont know the exact details - maybe it was power connector related).

Anyway, I accepted the G27, and now I have a new G27 + a G25 in pretty good condition that I could probably sell for a tidy sum following some maintanence work on the pedals

If I were you I'd say 'This wheel came with a 2 year warraty blablabla, I want a replacement product blablabla' and then tell the support guy that you know of several people who have had a G27 replacement. That's assuming you want a G27.. otherwise demand a full refund :P

Best of luck

I'll add the number of votes for each person later, although it is more or less the same, since most people rated everyone iirc.

The final scores are as follows:

1st: macsy - 4.11 / 5
=2nd: skiper - 3.89 / 5
=2nd: Taavi(EST) - 3.89 / 5
3rd: TuomasH - 3.66 / 5
4th: maxiim - 3.35 / 5
5th: jensbrix - 3.31 / 5
6th: GAVD999 - 2.74 / 5
7th: Furiously-Fast - 2.17 / 5
8th: Mustangman759 - 1.61 / 5

Also, if anyone has any further comments or suggestions on the voting system, please post them here

Quote from Jakg :

Example - before and after pic. Ignoring "after" is covered in dust, are you honestly saying it looked better before?

It's only better now because nobody knows it's a diesel :rolleyes:

Although the exhaust pipes are still a bit of a giveaway :P

He probably gave jens a 5 and everybody else a 1

No wait.. I can find out that info myself.. I will have a look later :P

Quote from DevilDare :

Lack of stream = Fail.

Never mind, you can watch my stream of my garden when I get it up and running again later

The 2010 Kyoto 500 will take place on 26 June 2010, with the green flag to fall at 16:45 GMT.

Quote from JO53PHS :

Could you unban me now?

ditto

Could you unban me now?

My tyres tend to go just after the first lap, so I will probably need to stop a few more times.

Regarding fuel, I'm going to start with 100% to make sure I dont run out before my first pit stop (on lap 2 I think)

Quote from pik_d :

I'm calling dibs.

I'm 28 seconds off the WR but I think I'm pretty much on the limit in terms of pace. I just need to come up with a good strategy.. I think I'm gonna go with 49 pit stops as opposed to 52... the tyres will just about last between stops.

Just delete the entire contents of LFS/data/move and put in the files I uploaded, then tell me what happens.

I fail to see why this shouldnt work

And you dont loose all your skins when you reinstall LFS... there's something called making a backup..

You have probably somehow accidentally deleted some of the driver animations.

Copy the .ban files in the attached ZIP into LFS/data/move

Quote from MTnRunnr :

****** The big improvement I would like to see is adjustable AI driver strength. I feel that there is nothing more fun (except of course racing real peeps) than setting AI strength higher to keep the racing challenging. Today, I was on As2r and stopped twice in a FXO to let the field pass, and still won a 30 lap race.

LFS already has this - AI speed changes depending on the skill level you set (Newbie, Learner, Ok, Quick, Pro).

Although having said that, the AI still aren't fast enough to have a proper race.. but thats why you race online

You don't need to 'code' the DDS files... they are basically image files, but you need specific software to view/edit them.

Try Paint.NET

Turning the wheel from lock to lock might fix it.

It seems that on my computer:

Having the wheel plugged in from startup = Always calibrated no matter what I do

Plugging the wheel in after start up = Goes out of calibration when I switch windows out of LFS / alt tab to another program.

You already made a thread.
