I have a setupdatabase for everyone, not only wr sets.
The problem is that it's young and there is not much to download.

As said before, setups are very personal and thats why i will tryi to learn to tune myself.

Quote from RevengeR :it looks really nice, but time format should be 00:00.00 instead of 00:00:00 i think.

Your right, now it's the same format as in lfsworld.

Quote from joen :I use Firefox. I checked it in IE and Opera, it's white in those.
But I think there's something wrong with Firefox or an extension or something. Because the weird thing is I saved the page to look at the css, and if I load the site locally it looks correct in Firefox. Weird.

Now it should look better right in firefox too.

Quote from Gentlefoot :Just tried to upload and got this error

Thank you for the upload.
Return to List page

Error 012.

Any suggestions?

Yepp, the time format was wrong...
Did you use the zeros, example 00:58:000
Im gonna check that if I can make it to validate different types of entering the time.

Quote from joen :Simple, clean and effective. I like it
I would make the column headers font white though. It's a bit hard to read with the dark background. But great job

It should be white, what browser do you use?

Why I asked this question is couse I only have this problem when Im using LFS.
I sit all day infront of computers, but not having this problem.
It's more intense when Im driving, not that much looking at keyboard, papers, out of window.
And the trip every 1h to the coffemachine probably helps.

Im gonna check the Hz on my screen, bias and lighting in my room to see if I find anything.
After 3h my eyes are burning, don't think thats really a good thing.

Here is a link to some info about eyestrain with computers and what to think about:http://searchwarp.com/swa24624.htm

Quote from Tweaker :No, my eyes do fine. Maybe you have your Mip Bias turned all the way down? If you go into the graphics settings, you should see the slider-bar option there for Mip Bias, it basically makes things look "crisp" or "soft". And I tend to make my LFS look soft so it helps on the eyes.

Maybe post a screenshot of what your LFS currently looks like???

Great tip, Ill post a screenshot when Ill get home...

Quote from trfab :Yes, I see the black edges in the LFS Viewer. In fact, I notice more now that you mentioned it.

Mike- what rendering program do you use and how long did it take to render my BF1 skin? Is that flourescent tube lighting that you used for effect?

Cheers,

trfab

Hi,
I use 3ds Max with Brazil, 15-20 minutes i think.
(AMD 64 X2 4200+, 2Gb Ram)
The light is omni lights with special designed reflective boxes.

You're the man! Lovely, just blown away. Looks better than I thought it would.

Re: the dark edges, is it something with the template or something I did?

Thanks again!

trfab

Hi,

Can be the template, but you can try to paint a little bit over the edges over the black mask.
Check in lfsview, you should see it there too.

Quote from trfab :Would be great to see how this F1 skin would look rendered with a reflective floor!

Listed with 1024x1024 and 2048x2048.

Thanks in advance!

trfab

Here you go, as you can see in the render there is some problems with dark edges on your skin.

Thanks for all comments, I will try to make more of these when it's getting cold and dark outside.

Boosted: If I had a real toycar I could try to photograph it too to see the difference.
I have some experience in photographing too..

Quote from Gentlefoot :That's great m8. Love the simple drop down lists. I'll upload some of my better sets sometime.

Quote from kurent :I like how simple the site is. No BS, straight to business.

Added a setup for BL1+XRT.


Some comments:

When you select the controller it only has keyboard+mouse. Some drive with only a keyboard and it goes without saying that mouse drivers also use keyboard but not for steering.

And PB's measured only with minutes and seconds??

EDIT: And the info box could be bigger.

Thanks,
Added to Wish List.
You can see the wish list on my site under info-link.

Quote from NotAnIllusion :Hi, I have a slight problem with opening a (dedi config) file for read access. The code does work, but when OpenFile () fails it takes aaaaages (60 sec execution timeout almost) for the script to react to the header () redirection. Also, in task manager it shows PHP taking 99% of CPU cycles. Any idea why this, and why OpenFile () fails with a existing URL type path (allow_url_fopen is On)?

Main code:
$file = OpenFile ($_POST['path']);
if (!$file) header ("location: $self?errcode=10");
// parse file


function OpenFile ($path) {
if (file_exists ($path)) {
if ($file = fopen ($path, "rb")) return ($file);
return FALSE;
}
return FALSE;
}

PHP 5.1.4 running as CGI (php-cgi.exe) under Apache 2.0.59 on WinXP Pro w/SP2

I would like to help you, but Im noob my self and having really hard to read your code.
I always use else statement to keep code readable.
I think your code is not returning the FALSE as it should and that could do that the main code continues without the header.
Try to write it with else commands and but in some debug to see what the code is doing.
