Hey guys, check your names, make sure ya don't end up naming name your server:

It's really annoying on LFSWorld.

i'l be watching this one too

Hey guys...I left the house right after the race and only got back now (about 11hrs. after race start) ...anyway just wanted to issue an official appology for my F-up at the start...total brain fart and simply gapped out about the pace lapillepall ...again sorry, my bad Thanks for the restart

seems to me a good candidate to "hit up" would be an internet sales company...alienware, dell, amd, wicked weasel or perhaps one of the 3d model companies...but I gotta think youd get better results if you actually approached them, they aint gonna come to you and say "hey man can I give you money"

what about striking up a deal with Scawen et al...after all the OLFSL is the LFS league right

funny...i get this too but only as the game is starting, before any screen desplays so it never botherd me...will be watching this one

Quote from letdown427 :

I have a DFP, and whenever the wheel is central, it jerks and twitches from side to side.
It is not a simulation of the cars behaviour, I'd go into detail, but i'd rather just say it isn't, i'm positive. As soon as the wheel is no longer centered, the problem stops. I have the force feedback set to 200 in LFS, and have tried reducing it to get rid of the problem, but it has to be set down to below 25 before it is unnoticable, at which point the cars feel hugely over assissted. I was wondering if this has been encountered by anyone else?
I really don't want to have to turn my FF right down, but the straights are just so aggrevating when the wheel is twitching constantly. Even when parked up, it turns left and right, leaving my poor driver flailing his virtual arms.
In the wingman profiler, I have most of the settings on full also, except the centering srping is on 0% I think, im at work at the moment, but will check later, ive tried toying with these ad nauseum, and have just tried to deal with the twitching. Any help would be greatly appreciated!!

Sorry for the long post.

I got the same problem...going down the straights it's kinda like a really loose tie rod. Also i have to hit [esc] after a race to chat so the wheel won't jerk left/right...Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!!!

oops...editied & moved to the sticky

These are all great but what about real life tracks? I mean why not or why isn't there any?

I noticed the same thing...my out lap time was recorded but none of the others

ok I got a question (sorry if it's a bit noobie) How does the tracker work?

Right now it says:Race started on Sunday, October 15th 2006 at 18:16... what I'd like to know is if i can trust the 18:16 start time. So when I switch with my team8 all i need to do is visit tracker & add 90minutes?

it's not like JV's retiring...now that WOULD be cause for rejoice!

you guys know about VCR's right?

Quote from Hankstar :

I have nothing against new layouts but I think we have enough at this stage. I'd prefer to see whole new tracks

I agree BUT how about a tool similar to the Autox Editor that would allow users to add "block-off barriers", thus remapping the track lines into any combination.

Fair enough, depending on your home router it may not work though.

angel....you were right THANKS!
It's working just fine (after I stopped the forwarding on pc#1...thanks again)

So thanks to the angel you guys get another dedicated server to play on (info will be on my site once I lineup a few admins)

wait...I just re-read your post....you mean only i was experiencing the problem of not being able to connect because of the circular conflict and that someone else (not on my pc#1 or #2) would have been fine.

meaning I got it right and don't have to do anything else

Dude that was fast what do you do sleep here

Quote :

You're still port forwarding to the PC1 most likely. You'll have to change that, if you want to use PC2 as a public server.

So I've made a circular conflict! I'll check it out tonight (I'm at work right now )

Quote from the_angry_angel :

When you're connecting to the game inside your network, just goto Multiplayer > Join Specific Game, select Local Network, and type in the local address of PC2. No need to go via the in-game list, its much faster, etc.

ya but I wanted to used that method to see if i got it working

Hey guys...you'd think this would have covered all the base by now but......anyway here's my situation:

internet
--> my router
------>PC #1

-I can host through my game have ppl join and race
-I can run the ded.server (nogfx) app. on my pc, then through the game I can find my "ded.server" and join to myself and race with others joined as well

BUT when I do this:

internet
--> my router
------>PC #1
------>PC #2

-I run the ded.server (nogfx) app. on my pc#2, I can see my server on lfsworld but not ingame from pc#1, also I can not manually enter the server name & connect...I get the ok button then it hangs (pauses like it's searching) then the ok button returns.
-windows on pc#2 has asked and has been granted access for LFS to be unblocked.

What i don't get is it's the same router & confg. and all that. My next step is to switch the slots the ethernet cables go into...pc#1 is in slot #1 / pc#2 is in slot #2...I'm wondering if the router (SMC) is physically internally wired so that slot #1 is a master.

I'm new to this networking stuff so I'm sure there's something simple I'm just missing. Any help would be great!

March 20 is a Tuesday?

I just found this thread ,I think I may have to have a talk with my teammate about it.

Quote from Krutch :

...We plan to go over to my place to drive together and do the change-overs by hotswapping on the same pc. This means only 1 drive will be online, even though we can change the player locally during the pitstops. Do you allow this?

My teammate (my father) and I live in the same city and we did this for a 3hr race earlier this year, there's only one problem with the hotswapping plan...our controler overheated, the steering got a bit squirrely and we only managed to get about 2/3 throttle by the end of it...my advice - make sure you test it for 3hrs prior to race day.

I'll be wherever the girls are

Well since my dad is going too we're actually getting a hotel in Bowmanville (the 5th wheel i think?) cause his old bones didn't like camping last year. (well that's what he said but actually I think the party wasn't his "thing" ) But at any rate we'll be around...too bad there isn't a SIM CLUB TENT like the corvette owners tent.

BTW you're not the Turn1 I know from NH @ SCORE are ya?

BTW I'll be going to the ALMS race at Mosport this weekend & I'll see if I can get new pics fer ya

You mean something like this? I found the FL skin for another car and modified it for the FXR...so you're free to use these but you may want to edit them a bit to change the name & number or I can edit them for ya if you want just let me know.

tanks...was a bit worried, but all better now!

crash?...what server....I cant get into 8 with the pw and the site seems to be down

Quote from banshee56 :

I'll be practicing tonight. Will this be on the official North American server? I can host a practice on the CoRe server if need be.

I saw your post over at the score forum (about the server running already) so I guess if I don't see yours then I'll boot mine up, in any event I'll be on the track somewhere
