Btw, FWGAFF, I will not be at GTAL tonight (?) because someone else will most likely be hogging the one computer now in my house. And LFS at 18 FPS is useless anyway :doh:

Quote from PMD9409 :

Didn't know you had a website until deko sent me a link.

We've had a website in one form or another since NDR began:

Original Bravehost website (December 07 to July 08)
Synthasite website (July 08 to October 09)
NEW SHINY WEBSITE (October 09 - Present)

People actually visit our website? Awesome

(I'll give the most reliable ones other than me, in order :P ) J@tko, TFalke55, Wilko868, hyntty, Timdpr, JO53PHS.

I like how you have ended on a high point, going from least reliable to most reliable






The only reason Jack is supposedly reliable is because he is in the doss years of School where he only has to go to school for about 3 hours a week, and thus has more time than me for NDR :doh:

Quote from dekojester :

You would have known about four days ago if you were ever online on MSN for a sufficient length of time or would maintain your PM box so it wasn't full. Clean that out !

Numero 1: I wasn't here from Sunday morning until Tuesday night
Numero 2: People keep sending me useless PMs that I don't need.
Numero 3: My computer is being repaired by some uncontactable laptop repair man, and therefore my copy of Photoshop is not currently in the same county as I am.
Numero 4: I will clear my PM box now
Numero 5: I will do the number boards as soon as I have my laptop back. Who knows how long that will be though..

Regarding number boards for Season 2, they were all finished and ready for release a few weeks ago.

But then RaceSIM closed down or something and now I am waiting to see if I need to put a different sponsor on the numberboards or not.

Yeah, I was going to fix that, but after some investigation it seemed the fix would be pixel by pixel colouring / clone stamping, which I didn't have time to do tonight

I must admit, it is more noticeable that I thought it would be

I actually did cut out the windows and then 'reglass them' . No cheating here .

The back window is not really (intended to be) solid. The combination of it being tinted and the general darkness of the boot makes it look like it may be solid

Final Entry

.......High Res......|......Preview

Quote from TurboBlaster :

Hm, is this caused by Z19? The gears onboard are red.

For the love of christ, how can you live with that hideous dashboard caused by using a Pre-patch Z DDS file?

Quote from ADOLF1612 :

the tacometer is only showing the left indicator, this happens only in the road cars, btw.

The other indicator is in the speedo.

Nice work on the dashboard lights. Out of interest, there is what appears to be a trip computer on the RAC. Is there any way of resetting this or is it purely to look nice at this stage?

It's not really important but I was just wondering.

Quote from Senninha25 :

Wasn't it 25 drivers in the only race I entered?

Well last round was postponed because we only had 5 drivers :doh:

Quote from 5haz :

Fusion involves releasing energy by making atoms fuse together (I think!)

Kinda does what it says on the tin, doesn't it?

Quote from Senninha25 :

Do you know about any league with more or less 10 drivers?

Yes I do. The Mini-FBM series run by New Dimension Racing

Quote from JasonJ :

I think maybe your CPU is getting bottlenecked by layouts which are quite CPU intensive.

Now that you mention it, that is probably quite likely. I know it really shouldn't be, but the speed of my CPU does seem to be the weak point of my computer.



EDIT: Although saying that, my CPU usage never went about 57% when running that replay. Maybe if I wait till my Norton subscription expires (20th November 2009 - looking forward to it ), I might see an improvement.

At present, there is no way to turn off or close Norton 360 unless you unistall it. Fail.

Thought I'd try and post something vaguely helpful regarding the low FPS problem. For me, there are currently several 'problem areas' in the replay posted. These being at the exit of T1, mid way through T2, the exit of T3 and the T5/6 bit. As well as probably most other turns followed by AutoX objects.

LFS Patch Z: 50-60 FPS in all the problem areas.
LFS Patch Z18: 10 - 20 FPS in the problem areas.

I also tried with Z15, which was pre-improved multiple screen support. There was still the same 10 - 20 FPS in the problem areas, as in Z18.

I don't know if this helps, but it would be interesting to see what FPS other people get when playing this replay in Z18. (Ignore the fact the replay is named Good FPS. This has no relevance to anything :tilt

Oh FFS.

I can't even drive this track because I get like 10 FPS on half the corners. Stupid Z18

Daughtry - What about now

Quote from MAGGOT :

The unfortunate part of it is that anyone in Ontario, as of October 26, must use one while driving. Or, be like me, and just ignore your phone when you're driving so you don't have to look like a tit with a bluetooth earpiece.

You have to use a bluetooth earpiece? Does any other hands free device not make you like a big enough nob end?

Quote from Intrepid :

Well you could spend your £12 on something more worthwhile then

That's a very good way of putting it.

Quote from 5haz :

+100

Love it, winter evenings with a red sunset are better though.

As a matter of fact, the view out my window has recently been looking like someone has put a red photo filter over it in photoshop

Snow in October? It's not fair
