if you're on lan, just look at someone elses screen, haha!

Drifting isn't fun in RL.

oh, and !tow really isn't that easy

As a little project I decided to use the LFSWorld SDK and create a status icon for servers.

It locally caches the information, and obtains it from the cache for the next 15 minutes. If it is then requested after those 15 minutes it obtains the data from LFSWorld once again, and re-caches it.

To use, simple put this as an image:
http://host.ramdonice.co.uk/hostname
(eg. http://host.ramdonice.co.uk/CTRA%20Race%201).
If required you can add a .gif extention (for BB code)

- Online
- Offline

ok, I've sorted it now!

http://host.ramdonice.co.uk/HOSTNAME_HERE
(add .gif extention if required)

for online
for offline

I am thinking about doing "image sets" for the near future. Let me know if this is wanted!

Congrats mate!

I'll work on something *wink*

IF there's a legit use, why not just have the file sent to you over messenger?

How do I do a !send command?

First of all you learn to program, THEN YOU MAKE ONE!

Not the other way around. Gosh! people these days!

If all cheaters were to stick to one server, then LFS would be a better place.

**** I'd host it!

Although it is good when you leave a server, and start the track that it has the same layout

but this poses a "threat" to the people that don't want to "release" their layout(s).

*shrugs*

PHP rocks indeed. LTC is written in PHP too.

There are a few things that I'm currently developing too - which will be released

Just a by the way...

It's showing S1 servers as S2 - Also happens with LTC3

Quote from imthebestracerthereis :

Yep that worked

Jolly good

To be honest - I dont think the manturity level of S2 is getting any lower than it was before.

If you think about percentages - it would most probably be exactly the same.

If say, out of 1000 people - 50 of those are immature little idiots, if you ten fold that, 10000 people, 500 of them are immature little idiots.

Basically, I think it is just because the size of the community has grown.

Stop new S2 accounts signing up, in 5 years time they will all be mature...

Also - dont forget you are all older yourselves now - you were probably just like them

This happens on the LTC servers from time to time - normally after there has been a connection issue with the server.

Whenever the server has to re-add itself to the master server - is when this issue seems to occur.

Usually a /reinit cures the problem.

*adds to his to do list*

My father is on AOL and he is having no problems what so ever. So I doubt that it is AOL that is causing the problems.

well... i updated textures (reflection mod and stuff)...
put everything to tha maxxx....
but still, i got the feeling its not like it was before...

dunno what i can do ?

installed nhancer? and done all those updates?

Quote from G. Dierckx :

hmm could be handy for making a web-based server control...

I've already got one, and LTC runs off PHP.

I'm tempted to release the web-control for LFS. I'll tidy up the code a bit, and make a few options - and then maybe I shall

Quote from Dutch-ALfa :

wont work.. still its too easy to make a turn :')

@mark, i believe Darren helped me with it.. hope he's online soon than

Try pressing . (period, full stop) in game... it turns up the force feedback level

Quote from Dygear :

I've been thinking long and hard about the system for the packets. And I'm still not sure how I would like to handle them. It might be best to handle them as the methods inside of a packet class, or each of them as there own class, or just individual functions. However, with the individual functions, there is really no good way to then take that into a plugin systems. I don't know, the definion for each packet is done, but the defines also have to be in place. God there is alot of work ahead of me.

Why not have a "settings.php" file - which has a list of "fires"...

And when you add a new plugin, it adds to the list of "fires".
The fires could like "EXECUTE ON NCN FUNCTION plugin_name_send_welcome($conn, $uname, $pname)"

Or something.... Then whenever the class fires its built-in functions for the NCN packets, it fires the plugin_name_send_welcome function too?

You probably need to go
- into control panel
- Game Controllers
- Select the DFP and press Properties
- Then find "degree's of rotation" and set the slider to 540'

ok. now i'am on the part of earning money while cruising ... x,y coordinates right ?

Not trying to be funny or anything - but if you can't do the problem solving side of things - or the programming side of things. Then I would either give up, or find someone that will lead the project

Hey guys, just to let you know I am now offering cheap TeamSpeak servers.

Meh - I know its been a while since this thread was updated - but this is a tool that I would like to back .

MIRROR!!!

Meh - no need to edit his first post to be quite honest - lets face it - all hotlap replays are watched by someone pretty much within the hour of it being uploaded - someone will then report a strange OOS error *wink*.
