Quote from vane :I have been using this as a starting platform to mount my insim on however when my friend runs it on his vista machine it crashes sometimes, i think it may be related to overloading the player list as if you spectate then join spec then join it crashes, could someone help me with a fix code for this?

If he is running it with Visual C# express edition in debug mode, Can you ask him to get some screenies of the error. If he isnt its gonna be a hard time fixing it...

Quote from the_angry_angel :Basically what I'm trying to say, and give you as much information as possible, is that you're simply not doing what you think you're doing.

I could have told you that a long time ago

Yea i guess, I also have Motherboard controlled fans. Meaning they make a lot of noise when the CPU is hot and under pressure and almost nothing when its just ticking over.

Quote from blackbird04217 :I haven't downloaded the new patch - maybe I should start there although I haven't... Are you sure its UNICODE / multi-byte and not just the special ascii codes?

Have a look at the pics in this post: http://www.lfsforum.net/showthread.php?p=704650#post704650

heh, No problem. I was having a bit of a nose on the Slide-FX thread and noticed the stuff you plan on doing. Track rotation, Spam filter, List of rules etc etc...if you want any of that done via insim tell me. I can do it

blackbird04217: I think insim already works with these characters? There was a picture somewhere of a guy testing LFS Buttons and they had chinese characters in them. I could be wrong?

This wont work for you, It uses LFS username to save the data of each user. Seen as your a demo racer you dont have no online username.

Quote from thisnameistaken :Well, be careful. It's not a matter of "I'll just give it some on this quiet road, just this once" - you don't increase the odds of surviving a crash by crashing less often.

I only knew of one kid who had a sports car for his first car - his dad bought him a Porsche when he passed his test. He died in that Porsche a few months later.

This is excatly what ive been trying to say...

Quote from Nathan_French_14 :
edit: maybe we should put this back onto the original topic.

This IS on topic, Its about people getting stupid cars and crashing them. So the age has to change..Sorry if you find that offiensive, but its reality, Sadly.

Its a BMW M3, if you dont want it for speed, what do you want it for? Showing off? Im not saying your an idiot and never will but im saying, a BMW M3 for a first car is nuts. You may have drivin a racing car for 3 years with 265bhp etc etc, but thats a bit different then getting in a 300bhp+ RWD bmw. you dont have no where near the space to save a spin on real roads today. I know a lot about RWD bmws due to my brother owning enough of them, In the wet you may aswell not drive one. If you do, get some tractor tyres...

I obivously cant sit here and tell you what to get and do but im giving you my personal opinion of you getting a BMW M3 for a first car. Theres also other facts, Fuel? Why the feck do you want something that drinks more fuel then a plane if your not gonna drive it fast?

I just think its stupid thats all..

Also you can think of me how you want, Everyone has a personal opinion. Were all just online people to each other, You think im a **** thats fine by me..

Quote from Nathan_French_14 :97 P reg M3 (E36) Convertible. Estoril Blue.

I have had to put it on my dads insurance policy for now though, as it would cost £8k a year to insure it myself (which is understandable! :tilt. I will have it on my dads policy for a year, and then take it on myself.

Are you freaking nuts? I mean this in the bestest way possible but, I hope you crash. Getting a M3 for a first car is like signing your own death wish....

Quote from Ian.H :This would be a great addition IMO. I've lost count how many times I've been bowling down the M25 / A41 on the way to work and someone pull out to overtake. It appears that if you're lucky, they'll check their mirrors, but 99% of the time, fail to _read_ what's in the mirror. Just because they're poodling along at 50mph possibly reaching 55mph for the overtaking maneuvers (although highly unlikely) doesn't mean that everyone is and by the time you flash your lights, it's too late and time to stamp on the brakes. When they _finally_ decide they're going to pull back into their original lane (if 3 lanes available, this will _always_ be the middle one ) they look out their window offering hand gestures

I did a separate single lesson after I'd passed my test which took me out on the M4 at ~19:00 (January) which served both purposes, although the M4 was a little quieter back then.

I wish they'd drum into people what the national speed limit means too. It doesn't mean 40mph

My entire test was "read that number plate 20" away over there".. 20 mins driving about, 5 questions from the highway code (of which I got the first, obvious one wrong) and got told "congratulations Mr.H"



Regards,

Ian

Well, ive only just passed my test. My step-dad has said he will take me down the M4 just to slough or reading and then back again, Just to get a little feel of the motorway etc etc. I do agree, the licence entitles you to go on the motorway and yet there is not one bit of training for it. Kinda stupid really...

CTRA 1 has died, Needs a reboot. Wheres SamH?

Sometimes you get "stuck" on the master server. Give it 5-10 mins it should kick you out when it realises.

Or it will kick CTRA 1 off the master if its crashed.

Quote from mkinnov8 :Now that sounds like its worth waiting for!

Can you talk about output at all? Would it be possible to auto output "something" to a website or a host at least, which could be parsed by php for example?

I'll save my other noob question for pm

I havnt really looked at LFS Points due to the fact ive never needed it, but from speaking to DarkTimes a few times. I see it outputs XML(Current version). Surely he will add that which could easly be picked up by php Or if DarkTimes really wanted, he could upload to a webserver somewhere and make some kinda stats like LFSW and let people query it for websites etc etc....Seems a bit extreme though.
