nope we didn't, since i got a Nvidia N-Force2 Ata Standard microsoft driver running for ages and i have the freezes too.
<<< hopes it's nothing with the memory N-Force drivers or the barton CPU, since you can forget a serious amount of processing speed without them.
And yes, i use the fastest Barton available (3200 Xp+) at nominal timing of DDR400

@Albieg:

To be protected by various net-side irregularyties, you need a PSU thats burst/surge resistant (german standard is 1 kilo-volt for home and office usage, while tests usually exceed 2 kv wich would be "cool" for industrial use) and as a high support time (bigger than 20ms) so bridge out net current-losses due to provider-net-switch acivities.
(notice a room-lighting drop and return to normal, in short timing).
let the search continue.

@kx_mole
how to find out (fast and convienient) what exact version of the N-forced ones i use?

@nick

i was wondering what kind of hd you where using, because i always get a curve like this: (fast test of a Ide).
is it a S-Ata drive, or does your hd-infrastructure limit your bandwith to your drives, or are they just plain fast?
Because even the tests of the c't (well known magazine here in germany) get's results similar to mine...

!!censored knowledge!!
You are not authorized to recieve this particular knowledge.
Access to this knowledge is denied by your current state of licensing.
You are therefore forbidden to learn about cars and street-legal handling of the same.


seriously, this paranoia here is getting me the grips.
If he's a cracker fine, not good, sure thing, but not changeable by your attitudes towards so called crackers.

just go on googling/reading the forums.
Could you just use your selfmade skins in the cmx-viewer?
iirc you can use them there, marvel at them, and thats it.

or if you need to crack the sim for a particular reason at least don't ask that obviously for knowledge about restricted content.

And most importantly, i don't know if you knew but, you should really get s2.

Quote from Richthofun72 :hi !

if you are on AGP card, try to use AGPX4 speed not AGPX8.

bye !

Maybee that's going to shift/solve/better the problem, i noticed myself (ATI) that the freezetime is approx. the same in ANY direct3d utilization, even on the oldest direct3d Nfs or total racing even Viper racing stutters ONCE then everything runs smooth for about a few hours then another stutter occurs...

i'm out of ideas too.

google for "rootkit revealer"
use a few tools from Mark Russinovich (http://www.sysinternals.com/) (u'll get redirected to Microsoft)
or use Blacklight (f-secure)
or read "heise.de" (c't magazine [in german :/ ]) or any equal tech-mag

Hijackthis got reall trouble with a smaller bug on my sys a few weeks ago (no virus,trojan,rootkit etc.) so it wasn't even able to start nor to scan.
Any of these online-scanners were practical useless to me since it wasn't any known "bad" software (in my case).

hope that's more to your liking...

what are you trying to tell me with that emoticon?
to me your link doesn't look trustworthy at all.
i'm sorry but i don't get your argument here.

first i'd like to know if the producer/programmer is trustworthy and reliable.
because what if this thing gets your system clean but installs itself a cloaked keylogger etc...

nice atmosphere in the movie, i liked it...but.

the resolution isn't any HD-standard i know. next time you may try one of these: 720p, 1080i and 1080p (use the smallest one for mpeg4 encoding).
No matter what kind of player (vlc 0.8.6 failed completely in a hysteric error message mayhem) i tried, was never entirely fluid troughout the movie.
(amd xp-3200+ at nominal speed)
I assume because of some unlucky encoding settings, for example: no GMC warp points used at all, bitrate was way above needed levels if gmc would have been used.
i suggest reducing the resolution, or using a less stressing codec.

Or me buying a better computer har har

Ok enough of the moaning, i envy you for the cutting skills and special effect ideas, but i was a tad bit saddened because of the low poly meshes in the short distance camera shots.
Keep up your creative work (and hire someone for encoding purposes :P )

it's a sim for speed (in generall, hopefully some day), any more discussion needed?

they affect the handling in meaning of weight, the bigger they get the heavier they are...
obviously.
and you can use big ballonish tyres for fun purposes (curbs aren't that dangerous anymore) but you won't be able to break some times.
I love to roam a bouncy env. with big ballon tyres (saw these things in a documentary about awd trucks roaming the ice deserts of our planet)
keep experimenting...

hello, i got 2 things circling...

1 i got that laptime twice today (while online racing), and once yesterday...(see pic)
2 is it normal that i need to set handicap weight to one and then to zero to eliminate any handicaps from a setup?
because i carried 20kg in the xrt-bl-forward set, did some testing, but couldn't get rid of it anymore, till today...

that's it...

ok, maybee i'm wrong ,no reality has no timescalable jog or anything [yet] BUT a simULATOR is something to (speak after me...) simULATE sth. or anything.
Who knows, maybee we will have air races someday -life for "SPEED" (in any manner).
I wouldn't want to jerk my time testing some long-shot setup to see my set is bad after hours of working my butt off.
I'm for an OPTIONAL (nice thing the chioces, choose to, or don't) implement of time.
I suggest noone here would like to watch the replay in REALtime only...
so, i assume we keep an open(minded) discussion about it, withOUT tinkering whether sth. is real(ity) or not.
since, we want to learn sth. by simulating certain things we cannot do (in these large amounts) in reality, doesn't necessarily mean we need to prohibit things to be simulated.
Like deep space travell (odd example? so be it, just be a bit more open minded, please...)

the effect is reproduceable, at least with games that use txtures as textfonts like your screen from post 1 or a gta series game.
It's a nice thing to play with using the "dxt-texture-format" feature in "compatibility" to be found in your "DX-3d options" (not Open-GL) in your catalyst drivers.
Maybee a brief switch "OFF" and on again solves your problem on the Fly.
After severall minutes my lfs keeps loking itself (graphic-side of lfs, sim side continues as if nothing happenend) for a few seconds and then keeps running smoothly till i close it.
i'm wonering if this is unique or any others here experienced similar effects.

take into account that certain surfaces react differently from other solid surfaces around the track, especially the barriers...

and since the collision-management (silly word i know, but i didn't came up with a better one) isn't perfect yet...

so NO i wasn't joking, and for the fun-time try to bump your car sideways (easy) into a wall and look what damage is done to your body...

but i strongly wish that the paid users get the full tweakable "restricted-to special-servers-or-single-player-NON-HOTLAPPABLE" version of tweak for s2 vxx.xx (since we paid for it...)

or is there not that big common sense between the programmer/developer of s2 tweak and the developers of lfs?

well is it just me or how long did it take for a new 0.5v version to come out shortly after tweak for s2 0.5v... strange or am i wrong?

if so, please, don't hang me for my curiosity, since i don't have that much time to follow all details to Lfs.
