Insim packets changed again :
What is your real quest dear devs ?
You wanna ruin regularly all mods helping organisers to manage leagues in progress ?
Why you are not able to keep compatibility between each new change ?

Quote from readme.txt :

Important :
-----------
This is Live for Speed S2 ALPHA.

ALPHA means : LFS S2 is still in the testing and development stage.

And from what I've read the Programmer Forum they all know it and many even welcomed the changes. If you have beef with how LFS is developed come back in $YEAR_LFS_IS_FINISHED and has been stamped as "final", then you have legitimate reason to whine&gripe if major functionality changes is brought with new patches.

Quote from SKaREO :

Better graphics, better cars, better sounds and better tracks equal one kick ass racing sim.

:slap:

That doesn't mean anything if the cars drive like a box on a scaletrix track.

Racing sim is defined by its ability to simulate, not how fancy and shiny the graphics are.

Quote :

One extra car sound is now played (now 5 including your own car)

I guess that was meant as in: when you're using the views intended for driving.

But if you're driving/spectating/viewing replay from the shift+u or TV view, sometimes it gets cut off because there's already maximum amount of sound generating cars.

Mitsubishi Lancer Tuned by AMS
Brake manpower: 2
Top Speed: 0.5 kmh
Fuel: High fat fish & chips

All in the topic really...

Most obvious in the TV view. See my car in attachment on the start and in the finish (1 lap race).

SPR is version W10. But it's not really W9/W10 issue, it's been ever since the sound optimization came ages ago...

Exactly, 129 Iraqi civilians died today in a bombing, where's their thread?

Quote from Dajmin :

Oh yes, and it looks like the devs might be in a bit of trouble in the near future...

I Plan on moving to LA in a number of years, but unfortunately, even the best layed out planes sometimes go awry. We will just have to wait and see.

Do you mean 9/11 or what the duck

Quote from Krammeh :

I have tried numerous times to get this server running, but it just will not have any of it.

I have installed WINE and it will not load, always complains about the X-Server. I have read several posts on this forum but none of the help seems to get my system to run it.

Anybody got any pointers?

Do you start the server with /dedicated=invisible like it says in the Guide: Running a LFS Server thread right above this one?

Quote from jaspies :

GTR2 only costs £12.

GTR1 was when I got it (as gift, I wouldn't have bought it myself) was 50€ (34£) and I guess GTR2 was around similar price when it came. So 50€+50€=100€ (68£). So far LFS has cost me 35€ (24£). So how's it cheaper?

Quote from wheel4hummer :

What qualifies as a WMD then? By the standards of whom?.

Ummm... something like an atomic bomb US dropped to Hiroshima and Nagasaki in WW2....

here's the answer:

Q1. Do your own homework.

Q2. See above.

Finished the game yesterday.

Liked very much. Especially the fact that you can't hog every gun and thing you find. You have to think a little what you need :up:

Minor spoiler folllows:
The ending felt very weird and the story line incomplete like only watching the first 30 minutes of a movie.
Read the walkthrough, and there apparently is several endings in the game. Just so you know if you choose the same route I did, and feel the story left incomplete. Prolly that's partly because I inadvertently skipped bunch of the missions and didn't have all the better armor you might have gotten. (The Brain Scorcher and following missions were a bitch with only the suit I got from the dead Ghost guy and the non-bulletproof anti-radiation/etc suit. )

I was fearing that I couldn't play this at all with my crappy PC (XP1800+/384MB/GF4TI4400), but everything off and on minimum. FPS was mostly playable...

If you're about to take off in a jet fighter, you really should know which buttons to press and NOT try each one.

With a title like "My internet innocence " I was expecting words that were new for you FAR WORSE than "pwned and a pic of copulating same species & opposite sex participants"
