Quote from Krammeh :

maybe he has left, since you reloaded the main server list at LFSW.

Lol, of course not.

But I've already noticed the same behaviour during long races.
For instance, during the IGTC races the safety cars, which are the only cars staying on the track all race long for 4 hours with the same driver, have suddenly vanished from the progress window while the guys were obviously still on the server, what the LFSW 'Hosts and racers online' window was still showing right.

My team mate was practicing and he was on the server for quite a long time.

So I wonder if there is some kind of time limit, like two or three hours, and when it's reached the drivers are not displayed anymore for some reason.

We are actually two drivers on ConeDodgers 4. I don't know if it does matter or not but the server is actually set to private.
The LFSW 'Hosts and racers online' window is showing the two drivers but the LFSW progress window is showing only one.

Quote from Blackout :

And for crying out loud, the BF1! Can't drive that thing because the sound makes me nuts!

A bee on steroids


But I hope the devs are pretty well aware of the BF1 and FZR sound problem as it has already been posted many times.

Quote from Clownpaint :

Because of course, to report a double page spread on the fact that the FIA are checking for equality would kind of ruin the months of work such outlets have done on making Lewis seem like God to the public.

The British media are just as bad as the Spanish

I believe all medias, and especially tabloids, are the same: they just don't care about equality-sport-truth but they only want to sell papers as much as possible. It doesn't matter where they are from, all they have to do is to please their audience.

Sometimes it feels like F1 is full of 12 YOs.

It is.

Quote from Rooble :

UT with vehicles is [...] sheet. Looks as if they have vehicles in this edition too, so no deal for me.

Yep, monsters on skateboards :rolleyes:
No wonder why the first UT (now aka UT99) is still played much more than the 2003 and 2004 editions.

Quote from fragile_dog :

UT just makes FPS's fun to play.

Yes!

Tough and close match but it looks like both teams were quite stressed and lacked inspiration.
And Wilkinson saved England's day, as usual... :rolleyes:

Anyway congratulations for the win and good luck for the final, although England will need more than luck only

Quote from Rish :

Predictions for Englands Semi final match with France anyone?

Guess!

Just have to ask, will my computer handle it?

Those large painted adverts on the tarmac run off should be forbidden IMO.
They are like ice especially when it's raining. Quite dangerous.

Yeeeees France did it !

So we are going to meet our good old 'enemy' in semi finals

Quote from mythdat :

On the bright side, Vettel's 10-place penalty has been removed

Some kind of real 'justice', at last...

All in all that's good news, at least I'll keep on sleeping on Sunday morning instead of waking up early for watching at a stupid / boring / useless so called 'race'.

I think I have enough of F1 as it is nowadays.
Let's put the drivers names into a hat and let the hazard to decide who gonna win the championship. Even better than seeing people overtaking in the pits only...

Yes, thanks but, erm, cough:

Looks like your team leader is faster than you

Quote from Victor :

are those Lapper and LuaLFS running locally on the host-servers?

Lapper is running on all of our servers but LuaFS is running on 2/4 of our servers and not on CD1 which is the most populated server.
We could feel the jerkiness on CD1 anyway and also on CD3 where LuaFS is not running.
And yes, both are running locally on the host server.

Quote from birder :

Recently we have had several users complain about stuttering on our servers and have confirmed this is only since the server has been connected to relay.

We have disconnected all our servers from relay and the stuttering has gone.

Yep I can confirm that as I did feel it myself and like Birder said it has also been reported by several regular drivers of our servers who are from different locations/countries.

It was not really 'laggy' but 'jerky' and everything went back to normal for everyone as soon as we have disabled the relay.

I got 35-45 ms pings to the Master Server and to our LFS servers.

Quote from sweetreid :

my prediction: safety car runs out of gas before 67 laps.

LOL


And I woke up for seeing such a 'race'...

Quote from Becky Rose :

that doesnt meen i'm going to allow people in T-Shirts and sunglasses to race on my servers

Wow sunglasses! How do you do that ?

Four pages, and still counting...

<== sunglasses yeah!

Quote from Greboth :

Although from the comments made France played liked noobs

Indeed they did... Really a bunch of noobs.
France has just given Argentina the ball maybe 30 times during the whole match. What a shame...

Fortunately yesterday we had Australia vs Japan for a laugh: 91 - 3
I think this pic explains what happens for 80 minutes:

BTW there is actually South Africa vs Samoa and it a great match

2 days the poc code was released 1 week later if not longer.

Now the facts:

30th July 2007, 10:50 UTC

Quote from muhaa :

I wasn't sure if it was exploitable i needed to do more testing on this which i confirmed my suspicions that it is [...]
but ill send them [the devs] an email i wasn't going to bother them [the devs] till i new that it was exploitable which i know now.

The MPR exploit was posted on the 1st of August:

That's two days.

Quote from muhaa :

We done the right thing just because we released the poc codes and told the developer's they better try and be quick about it because we wanted to release them.

Funny how you change your mind so quickly...
Well, finally it's not funny.
You just don't remember your own words:

Quote from muhaa :

this is safe with me untill it's patched i wont release it till then after patch then i will becouse i can still release the poc after the exploit has been patched.

Quote from muhaa :

Like i've said im not going into detail's about this un-till there is a patch released for it.

LFS usernames with the german umlaut ü are truncated in the progress window although they are displayed fine in the host window.

See attachements.

I've noticed that for the ü only but maybe it doesn't work either for other accentuated characters and/or for other special characters like the scandinavian ǿ or the latin ç ?

Quote from Becky Rose :

Firslty, he's watching this thread

No, the screenshot was made at about 18:05 CET = 5:05pm BST = 16:05 UTC/GMT, about 40 minutes before this thread has been started.

In fact I believe it was the very first attempt the hacker did before creating the other server, a kind of test as a POC...
