You can host Source servers for free...

Yeah, but you can't host a dedicated source server unless you own your own dedi box.

I was saying that he's setting it up on Hamachi because it could feature some sort of free dedicated service, where the server is always on - no matter if he has his PC on. I don't even know if this exists, I've never looked properly at Hamachi.

Source servers cost money to run on a dedi box - I assume Hamachi has a free way of doing this and this is why Sun has created one through that.

Quote from DK3X7MJ :

I don't understand why LFS developers decided to put some unpopular car like scirocco, I really don't understand this I see that people who buys that car they are VW Fans or dumb people who has money and don't know what to buy . In my opinion I don't think that this car deserved to be in lfs. I really don't wait for this car, I just waiting for graphic improvements and other stuff. I think that VW company paid to LFS developers that we could play with this car attracting us to buy this car. And why the f*** many people plays rfactor ??? Because in there is abillity to edit cars to actualize your project or your dream car or something like that
Thats why rfactor is so successful. I can play there with my dream car BMW M3 E30!!!!:auto: ,In here there isn't any car that I like, like a Nissan skyline,Z350 mitsubichi lancer evolucion,subaru impreza wrx, BMW M3 ,muscle cars but here we can see non of them... But somehow I really like this game because it has something unusual that other games doesn't have(of course there is much to improve..)
So If here would be veh modification this game would be the best
because developers doesn't have a taste of cars.
Thats my opinion

Now I will have much critic :jedi::chair::fence:

Dumb people who don't know what to buy? Listen - not everyone is into JDM Tyte cars like Skylines and Evo's, maybe someone actually wants a comfortable, economically friendly car that gets them around town in reasonably nice style - some people want a car to do one thing - be a car.

The devs didn't choose the Scirocco out of every car ever invented, maybe do a tiny tiny bit of research before you make such a stupid claim - in my opinion. Its more than likely that Volkswagon approached the LFS team and provided the data, drawings, blueprints..etc for free. The devs simply cannot go to Nissan and demand the rights to copy their cars in the game - they have to pay and trust me, its a lot of money.

hahaha ... you people make me laff
His videos are nothing but childish crap ...
FYO .. the video wasnt mine but another team members.

Seems like he's not the childish one. For no reason you start bitching about Squid, then claim it as a victory when he posts in your thread. I think your logic is somewhat flawed.

The video is okay, it could do with some different colour settings, the plain old LFS look is good in game but isn't too attractive in movies.

Great job on it! Keep up the good work, I love watching your movies.

Quote from Zay :

i would really like 2 see lfs hurry the hec up and realese the scirocco.then id like 2 see them realese some real cars not ones lfs has made up themselves.so,cars like light ones like lotuses would be good.id also like 2 see a car that is acually ment for fricken rallycross.

Real cars in LFS:

Raceabout
LX4+LX6 (pretty much)
FMB
BF1
UF1 (pretty much)

Quote from LFSn00b :

WHY, oh WHY do people have to bring up old teams and such...

(Bear in mind, Top Secret used to be a LFS drifter back since '06, stopped at Q4 of '07 though for some reasons)


Can't people use their imagination for a teamname, instead of getting a copied name which teams have used and it's taken from a real-life brand? ...


my faith towards LFS is losing.

Maybe thats why?

Good luck with your team!

28 - Living on a prayer - Bon Jovi.

YESS!

Those were both 1/1600 @ F4 - was the fastest I could get without using too high of an ISO.

Thanks DWB.

Couple bird photo's - Its quite hard to do wildlife with a 70-200!

Quote from harjun :

yes you are right.
My dad bought a V8 4.4 BMW engine range rover.
Its for towing my brothers race car though.

The DFP is a great wheel - it works great on PC and its much much better than the Momo. I don't think you'll be dissapointed if you get a DFP.

Quote from Amynue :

I saw his posts, but if all they need to do to release the patch is Scirocco, why the f*** is it not done yet?

Because its not finished yet, stop whining.

People are starting to get so rude about this - its pathetic.

Also - You clearly didn't read his posts if you think that all they need to do is release the Scirocco.

I can fouch for the Ka being a good little car, we have a standard Ka, its cheap to insure, good milage, although it lacks in pulling power somewhat I guess your death Ka would be suffice for your needs.

Quote from TexasLTU :

Forbidding people to speak about Scirocco is communism

I don't mind people discussing the Scirocco as a car - I just hate it when every post is just "Its a shame its not out yet" or "I can't belive they missed the deadline".

Or whining should be banned, at least.

Quote from harjun :

when is this car getting released?
I'm a bit bored of the cars now

Only Scawen knows, and if your bored with all the other cars now then I can't see one new one bringing you back to LFS with huge enthusiasm...

You havn't installed your graphics card driver - which is pretty essential for running 3D stuff.

What is a racing car without a driver?

Quote from rockclan :

Probably something really cool

Probably not, I wish all the Scirocco threads were locked and people weren't allowed to talk about it. Would make this place a much nicer one!

Yep - this server still up? I really fancy trying it out!

Quote from Bean0 :

Don't arse about with the computers, they are set like that for a reason.
Contravening measures to protect the PCs would be sternly punished I imagine.

It does seem you have a valid point though, can you take it up with your Design Tutor ?
If he/she can be brought onside then you may be able to get the IT bods to alter the settings for you.

Have you tried bringing in a different mouse?

Tried a different mouse but it makes no difference.

Will ask the IT guy a bit later and see what he says.

Hey,

At my college they have these super duper Dell XPS Pc's that run like crap on the network. Being on a computer design course, a decent mouse is quite essential for things like photoshop. The mice here are the crap standard dell ones, they're probably okay if the sensitivity isn't 3cm = 2000 pixels.

Anyway, mouse sensitivity is turned on too which makes these mice useless. Is there anyway to disable the mouse acceleration without being able to access control panel? I can't install programs either so I guess i'd have to run it from a USB stick or whatever.

Anyone heard of a thing like this?

Cheers,
Jack

I take it you mean you are wanting to report a driver. You can't officially report a driver unless its a serious incident that puts your accounts in risk or something.

You can report the driver to the admins of the server, if they are online at the same time or if they have a website with a report system.

Hope it helps, maybe someone from brazil could translate what I said?

edit: Damn garph and your to-the-point posts.

Quote from X-Ter :

Jakg, I don't know what you're problem is, and it's not my business to stick my nose in it, so I wont. But Race2Play offers good, clean racing, monitored in real time by admins, on very stable servers. Stats are kept, rankings and scoring are properly done and the site is stable. There's nothing to complain about, what so ever. Most series, regardless of sim, is free to participate in and doesn't cost you a dime. What is there to complain about?

The fact they only use the demo cars? Which leaves a pretty boring league in the same old same old cars.

I was hoping for some better racing in things like RAC, LX6, RB4, FO8.

Can someone PM me the pass to the server? I don't have it...
