russraine, I disagree with you.
The source code of an application -believe it or not- is a very personal thing. You can't force a programmer to give it away and most of us already thanked Smith for his work so far and respected his decision to keep the code private.

Freeware is not the same as open source btw

Glad I could help.
Enjoy the game

Yup that's the situation.

Not much to talk about really. Things like that will always happen.
It's just plain old human behaviour.
No worries. It just needs you to be a little picky with which racers you 'll race with that's all.

There is a setting in Options>Display called "Draw driver / wheel".
Make sure it's set to "Driver ON Wheel ON"

Quote from kurent :People who hotlap alot usually have alot of replays that they don't upload. They just choose the one that just makes it as a WR. When somebody beats that they upload the next best replay that makes a WR.

lol go easier on this X-Files theory.

People upload their best hotlaps and then they give it another shot and improve their pb so they upload another.

I don't think that they use a hot-lap stock.

You don't want to verify what aids/views/controllers the other person uses.
You want to be able to FORCE your preferences to him as an admin.

As you can have the view you prefer, the controller you prefer and the setup you prefer so anyone else wants to have their own also.

The more comfortable people feel with their settings, the more time they'll spend on the track trying to be fast and clean so we can have nice races.

As I said before, customization is a feature not a bug.

Amen Woz

This hardcore mode keeps coming all the time. It's getting annoying.

If someone wants to race in custom view no problem. If someone wants to drive with the kb/mouse no problem again. And so on.

Let people enjoy the game in any way that suits them.
It's called CUSTOMIZATION by the way and it's a feature NOT a bug.

Get S2 and join OLFSL http://www.lfs-league.com/

It has this "pool" system which groups drivers according their lap times.
I'll definately join the next season

Upgrade from U to V and then from V to W and it will work. (Smallest downloads possible)

I don't know what are you talking about about Jakg though, but I know that there are no licences lying around.

Just upgrade to tha latest LFS version. Many things have changed since Q.
No need for you to stick with this outdated version.

I answered no, but tbh even if something had happened I couldn't have noticed cause I was too busy playing online for two days in a row

Tomylee, the first one is not a bug. If you read the new features section you'll see that if you go to Options>Display>Interface (the button at the low right hand corner) now you can CUSTOMIZE all colors of the mini map.

The 2nd one is a request/Improvement suggestion and although it's a good one, this thread isn't for this purpose

Quote from JTbo :Well, there is no .zip download, only .exe and as it is self extracting archive I would assume that it would uncompress itself in Vista as there is Vista support in LFS.

As you said it might be an exe file but still it's an archive and WinRar can open it so you could follow my instructions of the previous post.

About your Vista comments I agree with all of them. Surely LFS should work out of the box in Vista as it does in XP, since although they suck at the moment a developer simply can't ignore them

These are really bad news

Anyway, Smith your program was fantastic. Thanks a lot for the work and effort you devoted on this project all this time.

We 'll really gonna miss this great tool in the future...

Are you asking this question in a 57 pages long thread?

The G25 is the best "afordable" wheel at the moment. Personally though I don't like the fact that the shifter appears to be it's weak link as it was the pedal system in previous Logitech's models.

A revB of this wheel with a more solid shifter would worth every penny of it imo.

Install WinRar which supports 7z files http://www.rarlab.com/otherfmt.htm and open the exe file as an archive there (right click on the file > Open with WinRar).
Then you can manually extract it wherever you want to.

Ian you were talking about the LFSW window right? http://www.lfsworld.net/?win=h ... ctivity=1&cars=262272

It might be a little difficult to add three states there, cause Victor uses checkmarks and afaik checkmarks have only two states (checked or unchecked).

The funny thing is that I made a similar suggestion two weeks ago but for the game's browser, where all these options could be implemented more easily perhaps. http://www.lfsforum.net/showthread.php?t=22921

Scawen, may I suggest something here? At the first post of the test patch thread, below the red letters "Warning This Is a Test" I propose to add a small paragraph like this also:

Quote :
How to install the Test Patch

To be on the safe side make a new copy of your current LFS folder and apply this patch there.
This way you can always have your original LFS folder intact in case you want to roll back to it, or to do some comparisons for bugs report.

Quote from Gentlefoot :Strange - I think it must be a position option then. Mine is top right so is replaced by the times list. I guess I must be able to change that somewhere.

Never seen an arrow in the conn list - will check that out. Cheers.

Yes, put the mini map on the top left and it will always be visible.
Options>Display>Third row from top.

+1 nice idea.

It's better to know what we want before the new system is out, rather than asking later and patching it.

Btw, LFS is mainly CPU limited, not GPU limited.

Here's an older post I've made about this topic http://www.lfsforum.net/showthread.php?p=342448#post342448

The patch is only from V to W.

So either download U to V and then apply V to W, or download the whole W version from scratch (recommended).

The Master server has changed, you can't connect with U.

It's all in the first page http://www.liveforspeed.net/
