Can it be a controller issue? Does he have an USB modem or a large amount of other USB devices plugged in?

Try to run GameXP and other optimization software which modify internet settings.

Hmm what if servers could be tagged as invisible?

I bet they meant it not as if it was bad to use others sets but as an encouragement to learn the stuff and become a better racer as a result.

I can't be bothered with it too much, all I adjust are brakes and steering in most WR setups and it's pretty good for 10 laps most of the time...

Not at all. How did you come to think it was not OK? I'm not much of a mechanic myself either, although I would be faster if I were...

Why not download the whole setup field from inferno? No need then to ask for setups on servers, I think.

Any ideas on how to remove lag from a wireless mouse/keyboard(radiowave)? I am at my friends place so I have to cope with what I got here :/

It seems the mouse skips like for a second sometimes and then you notice your wheels are pointing in wrong direction.

Just look for the prices of that same card on your region, just make sure it's a 256MB 7600GT(PCI-E obviously).

Get that with the additional 512MB of ram and you won't need another hardware update in a few years...Gamingwise at least.

Yeah, same wheel

Yes, you got both PCI-Express and just plain PCI slots, they are older and slower.

This might be a good choice for you.

Atis X800 and Nvidias GeForce 6800 series should be enough for you to play S3. They are cheap too.

Quote from Bean0 :Along the same lines, does anyone else smoke whilst driving ?

Well I do, and it really intensifies the experience(immersion) and makes me faster because I concentrate harder.

It's just too much fun...

I'd rather think what's best and most beneficial for LFS.

Sure, demo racers are most likely the biggest bunch to attend if an event of some sort was arranged, I'd still try to get NEW people into LFS.

Who knows, this total stranger could very well be the next hilarious forum spammer, which actually makes me reconsider my thoughts j/k

Giving the licence to a particular pre-defined character, although I believe you when you say he deserves it, cannot attract people into LFS as much as some cool event could.

Maybe a guy who's never heard of LFS is better if you Think about it.

What would give LFS the largest amount of positive publicity and therefore potential customers? That's the first thing to consider imo. Then it would be easier to figure out the details but of course, it has to promote good racing.

So, is it really necessary to give the licence to a demo racer in particular?
kompa

Would it be on one occasion only or maybe an event say every 3 months?

To encourage good racing behaviour obviously but what are the motivators behind this if I may ask?

Does LFS Desktop show the servers?

Sorry for OT but I get "obsolete video" when I try to load any .mpr replays. Any ideas?

Quote from Ziil :Whenever you feel the alcohol costs too much in Finland then you can just hop on a ferrry and come to Estonia for some cheap cheap alcohol and then hop back

That worked really good until the changes in the finnish system. I love Tallinn for all the other stuff it offers, the old city is really something to visit.

You can buy the several times internationally competition winning Koff beer for 17,90€ for a 24-pack, as I did today, yesterday and the day before

I'm a proper finnish drunk, when I'm not drinking I play LFS.

I'll post some language tips when I get my head a bit sober.

edit: beer can be cheaper still but it's gonna change with the new 'legislation' of not being allowed to sell beer cheaper as the more you buy. Hope you get the point, hard for me to put that in english

Quote :Ever since I was little I pictured myself living in finland...

Wow, why Finland?

Crime happens but it's pretty much something you won't even notice if you keep yourself away from the obvious threats...Don't go to parks drinking beer alone at nights etc. 1st thing that pops into mind are the gangs formed by refugees of various nationalities who mug ppl and steal anything that's of some value. In large groups they rule the night full of drunken ppl who can't look after them selves. I have never had any problems and if I had I really couldn't blame but myself.

Finland is pretty safe IMO.

haha, drank 16 beers but that doesn't stop me from posting!

As you don't need tips to attract women, here's the two common things you hear:

What's the time? = Paljonko kello (on)?
Where's the nearest cheap pint? = missä on halvin tuoppi?

I'm a bit out of imagination here but I'll post more later perhaps, if I remember.

I think you'll manage.

PS. Finnish language is easy in the way that you can pronounce it JUST like it is in text. Just try to mumble it as the way it's written, you'll be understood

Be sure to visit Hietaniemen ranta ("hietsu", a nice beach), LOTS of temptative women there so be careful. There's the amusement park Linnanmäki a few kilometers from the centrum and definitely Suomenlinna (suokki) is the place to be on hot sunny days. The ferry to the small island travels quite frequently from the big marketplace near the president's "castle". As you go there be sure to walk through the esplanadi park, lots of happy drunken ppl and a few live performances usually involving just about anything.

Hmm, what else is there...I recall a nice bar which keeps the temperature below -20 degrees celsius so you can really chill when it's too hot. IIRC it's on yliopistonkatu (the street close to the Helsinki univeristy).

I'll post more later, now I must do the basic finnish thing, drink a lot of beer while not talking.
