You're much better off if you just install eg. xampp and get a dynamic dns service. That is, if there's no justified reason to use Tor network to hide your arse.

Back to on-topic... enough of that Linux hogwash.

For those who bought Vista, this is how to properly load it

isnt richard burns rally on ps2?

IIRC the physics are different on the PS2, for the worse that is

Other than LFS and RBR, the only ones that have rocked my boat are Enthusia and Ferrari F355 Challenge (the arcade version, arcade as in look the pic) and Hard Drivin' (that was 16 years ago, I was literally blown away then :jawdrop:

I'm not exactly sure is this what you want... or do they work like you'd want them to..

Quote from readme.txt :


Other text commands :
---------------------
Most of these text commands replicate functions usually controlled by
pressing on-screen buttons but can be useful in other situations, for
example when controlling LFS from an external program using InSim.

Game setup screen only :

/ai [NAME] :add ai driver (can specify NAME)
/ready :set ready
/cancel :cancel ready
/clear :clear all racers from list

Game setup screen on in game :

/car XXX :select car (e.g. XRT)
/setup X :select setup X
/colour X :select colour X
/join :join the race
/spectate :spectate or leave grid
/leave :disconnect from host
/player X :select existing player X

............


Host settings commands :

/vote X :no or yes - guest voting
/select X :no or yes - guest selection
/cars [cars] :see below : "Car Strings"



If you need a guard dog forget German shephards and Dobermanns, this is much better http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_Ez5QPW-ku4&eurl=

Ok but how many times have the city been shutdown for animal carcasses, soft drink cans, and boxes found laying around? Those are most often used disguises for IEDs. Not some some bright LED light cartoon character sign giving you the finger.

Quote from Madman_CZ :

LOL! exactly, make a bomb with a flashing warning

Huh?! That's like all the bombs are, they have lights that blink and buzzer that goes beep beep beep faster and faster until it blows up. Don't you watch Hollywood movies AT ALL?!?! illepall

If you're into space, you really should check Celestia. It's bit like Google Earth/NASA World Wind, but for the whole universe.

functionality < candy and it goes straight to the bin from me

Yeah really nice, I try servers in UK and the recomended Latvia and get 110+ms. I start cmd promopt and ping master.lfs.net I get 70ms and from google.co.uk 43ms average


Ed. On second thought, it might be that it's too fancy for my measly pc....

Use that to set the file associations again. It should work again.

Quote from Ian.H :

Should throw a warning

You've used an assignment in a conditional statement.. the above would always return true, regardless of the user ID

Not again!

Took ages to spot that exact bug the other day

Quote from herki :

going further off-topic: don't confuse board-admin with sql-admin. Join dates are usually generated automatically and saved to the db. At least on the board I did admin, I wasn't able to change the join dates. Unless I connected directly to the db that is.

if($user['userid'] = 643643) $user['joindate'] = '1.1.1970';

DBAs? DBAs? We don't need no stinkin' DBAs!

Quote from sgt.flippy :

Okay, I said this before, for some reason this keeps sticking in my head, and here goes why it wouldn't work: LFS renders the track in front of you and behind you, and it calculates how far that would need to be, according to the invisible lines every track has. So here we come to problem number one: it needs that line to know what to render. A city would have multiple lines, which is impossible, or you always have to follow one route and it would probably just cock up.

Here comes number 2 which will smash down your "but the autoX works": a city would be too big to render in one part, the autoX is being rendered in one piece, so needs a lot less resources because it's kinda small.

Get it?

"LFS renders the track in front of you and behind you" -> "LFS renders the track around you" There problem solved. Like in Midtown Madness, Driver, GTA, Monster Truck Madness, Sports Car GT, Screamer 4x4, Mafia and all others I can't remember atm. It's not impossible, and not as easy "just removing the barriers", I know. But very much possible, they just need make it possible.

Get it?

Quote from MAGGOT :

It was just stated a couple posts up that it is not possible with LFS's engine.illepall

Well then it needs to be changed But not now, if that'd be in S3/S4, that would be veery niiice! =)


What I remember (+understood) from the brief explanation someone gave waayy back, the main issue was AI route around the track. Which currently wouldn't work if there were multiple routes. But so? You could disable AI for the open-tracks like it's disabled on AutoX.

Would you care to elaborate on that one, please?

They lose their marbles if the redline comes before the shift point, but I don't think that's what he was referring to...

http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=7382676545570345084 Now, that's creepy

Wow this is waayy better than LFS just look at the graphics! And quality is the same no matter how many times I start it. Awesome! :rolleyes:

Isn't that Jeep Wrangler a full featured 4x4? And not just all show? I can't think why she (I'm guessing here, but quite sure i'm correct ...) didn't engage 4wd and low gears....

There's quite a lot of crashes and accidents here when the first snow comes, but that just crazy, looked more like figure skating

Well at least they didn't jump out of the cars like the idiots in the video few years back.
