Buid myself a new PC in April.

I see you decided to go for the M.2, have you noticed any difference compared to an SSD? I heard those things are nuts!


I guess I'll show off mine.

Asus 24" LED A-Sync MG248Q 144hz (3x)
i7-6700k 4.0GHz
16GB ram @ 1200MHz
GTX 1080Ti 11GB

I installed speccy and noticed it says my graphics card only has 3070MB on both virtual and physical memory. Is anyone familiar with this issue? I'm sure this card should have 11GB.
I'll try other programs though to see if it might just be speccy being silly.

I'm in a hurry, so i'll make it quick.
Winner: KevinRacer

It says S3 licensed for me. You can activate it in LFS now.

Options -> Misc -> Last option; "Display LFS logo in-game" switch to no

I found this.

Are your drivers up to date? Seems like a specced computer.

My bad, I've been fairly busy and haven't been prioritizing the LFS giveaway. A bit late but here it is.
I see some of you that already had S2 tried to join the giveaway, but unfortunately this one was just for demo users (demo to S2).

Quote from kristofferandersen :

Giveaways are active again! Giving away S2 licenses to demo users.

Anyway, congratulations to ramblinman for winning last week's giveaway. I've sent the voucher code and how to redeem it in a private message. Happy racing, and happy easter everyone!

Good luck to everyone in the May giveaway. 12th of may.

Hello.

I've set up 4 new giveaways for mostly demo users to participate in. 1 per month from now to july.
With this, I wish everyone good luck with their chance on winning an S2 license!

Next giveaway: 12.04.2019

Also, since its been so long since the last one I've cleared out the document. We're starting fresh.

I still stand by my point, i think that UFR and up to FZR are GTRs.
You should talk to someone managing the event, they'll know for sure.

Yes, that would be any of the GTRs.
GTRs: UFR, XFR, FXR, XRR & FZR

Hey man.

It was great, good editing. Like lucaf said, a commentator would've been nice. To be honest, the music was way too low for my liking. But great video regardless.

Quote from Tomislav531 :

Fix upshift glitch.

You might wanna elaborate.

I noticed the gearshift debounce was a bit higher than I'm used to, so i just set it back to 10ms.
This can be done in Settings > Misc.
Is this it?

If you use Windows 10, there is a builtin recovery function. Run that and wait 20 minutes and you'll have a fresh Windows 10 again.

You do have 256MB memory, that is definitely a part of the reason you're lagging. But since you haven't always had this lag i would suggest you to make sure the drivers are updated.

EDIT:
Back in the day when i had issues with my laptop, it usually helped to reinstall Windows. I did that like 4 times a year.

Quote from Yisc[NL] :

I use 'DB Browser for SQLite': https://sqlitebrowser.org/

Thanks for this. I did some searching around and it seems like SQLite is serverless, it doesn't have a server/process running all the time. Its a file that the coded program/website reads/make changes to.

Could someone confirm that this is true? If yes, that's amazing.
If this article is right, then I'm gonna give SQLite a try with my C# apps. Would definitely save me some time.

Quote from Scawen :

Options - View - Full width external views

The option is staring you in the face but you can't see it (same with everyone else by the way).

I was struggling quite bit to find this option. Found it eventually, i didn't know it existed.

shift+u to enter freeview. Press options bottom right and turn on Full width external views.

Sadly, I couldn't use LFS in triple-monitor-mode in freeview (shift+u) when i'm on live servers.

Quote from skywatcher122 :

LFS_External itself is old, I would recommend that you guys start using LFSDotNet instead and convert the whole code into new DLL itself.

This.

Quote from bulgaria05 :

Hi, the Insim mod is very good but i have a problem! WHat is the TowTruck tag?
If you have time please answer me

Yeah, it is good but it is old. The towtruck tag should be in the code somewhere.

Quote from Eclipsed :

No,I just saw 6B and became suspicious,so I entered a phase of this in search field - wasn't too surprised about results as I have seen such spambots before. Just wondering what's the target of this? Anyone has an idea?

I've seen many like this one before. They randomly post some text and then after a few days/weeks they edit their post and put in suspicious links.

Quote from THE WIZARD DK :

though i think canada weather would go more to norway than denmark because up higher.but it usually spins that way.

Norway would definitely be closer than Denmark but oh boy! Canada is a tough one to beat. I'm sure they're used to -25c+ degrees over there. We peaked at -22c this winter. Most winters we would get rough wind and -10c, and let me tell ya. You would wanna be inside when that happens.

This thread fits pretty well for todays weather we had in northern Norway.

It had been snowing for 5 hours straight, rained for 2 hours. I was working at the time and had to drive 45 km to get back to work to get some stuff sorted out before going home. Usually this drive takes 30 minutes. It took 1 hour and 20 minutes.

First of all we had to drive 30 kmh under the speedlimit (snow + rain is not a good combo). Tried to go 10 kmh under the speedlimit but would then lose traction to the road. After driving for 20 minutes we found a bus that had driven off the road. It was laying there in the snow, we stopped, walked over and talked to him. Everything was fine, we could move on.

We kept driving and were on our way to the Town Hall (where our office is located). Still had to drive pretty slow due to weather condition and very slippery road. Nothing too much happened on our way there, nearly drove off the road ourself due to ALOT of wind (i live close to the coast in north norway so we always have wind, but today was more than usual).

I forgot to mention that earlier today i saw 4 cars stuck in a parking lot. It had been snowing quite a bit that night. The ironic part is that all of those 4 cars were all-wheel-drive. Yikes!
Its been a pretty interesting day at work.
If you made it this far, thanks for reading! Turned out much longer than i expected.

It could be your LAN/WLAN driver for your computer. Have you tried a neweer version of that? I've had a similiar issue at work, where the computer turns off after a specific time.

I would suggest you to do the same that I did in 2016.
So I had two monitors of the same model. They were 144hz and i wanted one more but the one's i had were out of production.

So i sold them both to a close friend of mine and bought 3 new one's. Same brand and model. I'm pretty sure the one's i bought back then are now out of production once again. But all i know is that they're ASUS 144hz monitors with low ms and i paid approx. €900.

I have had second thoughts about them, to instead have 1 big 32" ultrawide montior. That would've been cheaper.
Whatever you decide to do, you should have all in the same hz.

You signed into LFS as in opened it and logged on to a server? Or signed in as in activated LFS?

Since no one has replied yet. You might want to use imgur or another, preferably a global image service.
I'm getting the Forbidden error.

Edit: or you could upload it to the forum..

Post above should do it.
What LFS version are you running?

Moved post to Technical Assistance.

It is not possible to change username.

I talked with one of the devs about this a couple of years ago. IIRC the racing stats were linked to your username, therefore it could not be changed.

You can always change your in-game nickname though
