Yep, I can't play any MPR form W17 till W25, all stuck on the start with blue background like kamo described. All SPRs work ok though.
Just type /log test.txt LFS will make the file for you. 
Would be nice to make the new hostlist filter can reset default to "no", since default is also "no" for hosts, and idea is to not use that thing anyway.
Divx will be available for download next week or later. It just takes a lot of time to edit, compress and upload that among other things that are going on there. Like usual its going to be replayed every day during the week. If you don't understand the language it wouldn't be very interesting to see anyway I think. 
Indeed a big crowd, fully full server. It was great, we talked a lot about LFS, new stuff in the patch, OLT server specifics, people in the server, and it was indeed some good racing to be seen. 
We show live races in Serbian leagues every Sunday and we usually concentrate on racing and don't have many opportunities to talk generally about LFS which we finally did today in a more relaxed atmosphere.
But bad thing was our fps. P4 2.53 ghz was at 100% and stuggled to keep up (graphics card was fine, 7600gs). Very often we got almost slideshows and had to talk about that, how demanding LFS became with lots of cars, and how this is only a test patch, things are always improving and so on. But I don't want to go OT with that. Thanks again for being there.

But I don't want to go OT with that. Thanks again for being there. I think I spotted a bug. One player got all sort of error messages OOS PLY... and then when he was kicked new message appeared: xxx was banned. Immediately he went back on the server so he wasn't really banned but kicked by the server. I checked the translation and I didn't mix those two new messages up.
I checked the translation and I didn't mix those two new messages up.Yes, the realistic sound is what I liked best in this video, but its great overall as usual. Though I also got confused by the story...
Though I also got confused by the story... Very interesting. We are broadcasting live LFS races every Sunday on AutoPlus TV in Serbia, and it would be great to have some additions like this. For us, having all this run on a separate PC and using video mixer for overlays would work greatly. As I understood Becky already did something like that and only having problems with writing to avi? Any chance we can see some of what's already been done?

Today was the last day of LFS on AutoPlus booth, we had finals for business league as well as for visitors. Final races were quite exciting indeed, but also we had a very special guest today - Miloš Pavlović, World Series by Renault driver for Draco Multiracing! He was by far the best LFS noob we've seen there, and, after watching so many people forgetting to brake and going too fast and stuff, we were impressed how he learned the track in just 3-4 laps by just driving sensibly, like on a real track - slow at first then gradually speeding up and feeling the car along the way. His time was 1:38.5 after those 10 minutes (2nd best first timer was about 1:40).
Unfortunately photographers weren't there at the time, but TV cameras got many things happening there, and I hope we will show you some videos soon.

Yep thats the same thing, and its still going on, every sunday 21-23h live LFS races on AutoPlus channel, OPS and DEMO leagues. Just tonight we did another demo race, and this time from the TV studio in Belgrade Fair (Wireless Internet fortunately works). We're not talking much about it here cause we can't show you much, but maybe we will start internet video streams soon.
Today was another very busy day, lots of people on the stand, and again 4 times live on TV about LFS + live demo league race in the evening, its really going great.
Some experienced LFS-ers drove today and times have dropped to 1:35.xx. I didn't have the time to try the new set NAI have posted, and for few fast people it wouldn't be fair to change now even if for anybody that drives for the first time it wouldn't make any difference, so we're sticking with RACE_S.

Well, if anyone has a "noob friendly", believable and not too slow setup feel free to share. RACE_S can be unstable under braking if people don't keep it fairly straight, but its quite nice and convincigly understeery under power. Fast setups with locked diff are not really good for this purpose. RACE_S is also nice as everyone has it and can practice at home.
Its really not bad I think, but if you have something better we'd be happy to try.Hmm thats actually interesting idea because lots of people first ask us "how much for having a go?". And of course its free.
Today was naturally quite bit more crowded than yesterday, and tomorrow I'd expect even more being the Sunday. We didn't stop for 6 hours, and there was always someone waiting in line. I think we were live on TV 2 or 3 times today with car import company bosses having their races (Subaru beat Renault in the final corner), as well as visitors races. I forgot to take pictures to upload, there were some interesting characters today as well. It was interesting to watch very young kids, age 8-9, their reactions to slides were really quick and good, while majority of the people were always late to correct and kept going left and right until they crash or slow a lot. BTW, current best lap time is 1:39.22 set by young kart racer Petar Janjić.
Logitech is still running LFS with G25 (not going back to GTR2), only they took out the H shifter as kids were kinda abusing it.

LFS on Belgrade International Motor Show
http://www.sajam.co.yu/sajam_e ... mp;sajam=salon_automobila
Belgrade International Motor Show opened yesterday and will run for next 10 days. AutoPlus, TV Channel where we have live LFS races every Sunday for past 3 months, have set up their studio in Hall 1, broadcasting live from there many times during the day, and on their stand we set up 3 PCs with LFS competition for visitors and AutoPlus prominent guests. Blackwood GP, XF GTI, few mins practice and 3 laps race with RACE_S setup and best race times can bring fastest visitors some nice prizes from sponsors. 3rd PC gathers the results, writes tables etc, everything's been going well, and even if the stand is a bit away from the main crowd we still got quite a lot of people try out that LFS they saw on TV, and explained to a lot of noobs whats this all about and how to drive, and where to get it.
Some piccies from our stand (maybe the oldest guy to try LFS?)

Quite a bit of sim racing is present throughout the show this year. Logitech brought 3 G25s with Playseats, 2 of them on Playstation 3 with some F1 arcade game, and 3rd is a PC where they tried to run GTR2. Funniest thing is that they got so much trouble with GTR2 they called us and asked to install LFS instead, and so we did and also properly set up G25 with shifter and everything, even with our sponsored skins and track ads (Logitech is one of them so I guess its ok).
So there we go, people can try LFS (demo) in 2 places in the show, and with a great wheel too.
Chevrolet brought WTCC race car of Rob Huff, equipped with BRD FF wheel and pedals integrated in the car, where you can sit inside and drive two laps of Zandwoort (with all the helps on). Guy from Virtual-Games, Nuno Espadinha, is the host there and he said they couldn't even run RACE because of the Steam protection (to even run you need Internet!) so they had to convert the car to GTR2 and are using that instead. I honestly expected bit more, both wheel and pedals had huge deadzones and paddles had to be disabled because of some screws, but nevertheless it is cool to sit in tight bucketseat and have trouble to get out of the racecar.
I'll get you updated with more pics and movies in next days...
Oh btw, thanks to DoN for the posters, and to TeazR for making us the skins on a short notice.

Sorry, I couldn't make it home in time yesterday. Next week I'll be there.
It's also in cfg.txt:

My guess is that Flip means if config is reversed.

Well, when I look again at "why I play" (which is often the case with any Krani's movie, they are always so enjoyable to watch again and again and they always seem better and better the more I watch ) I noticed how the sounds of engines actually sing with the music! Every cut is made to the music, and every sound is appropriate with musical phrase. Its amazing. Maybe its a coincidence in some of the shots, but it really fits extremely well.
In your video, some sound cuts are few ms off from picture cuts (and some minor crackles at those moments), but thats less important. Just fitting sounds to the music is a bit off which makes it distracting in terms of picking which shots where I guess, and also engine sounds are just a bit too loud I think. You probably didn't want to cut precisely to the music on purpose, but maybe because of sounds one really has to? Because sound is another musical element.
But to both of you (and others who dare to try it) great job of doing something different (and better) with sounds!
Also I don't know how and why Krani always picks so great racing shots, while yours just seem to miss some excitement, its hard to describe. Its very good, its just missing something to be great.

Sounds great, I'd like to join in. I can't guarantee to be there every time though but I'll try to.
I can't guarantee to be there every time though but I'll try to.Just letting you know that this thing is still alive and kicking and slowly getting better. We are producing some kind of show about LFS every week. If we dont have live OPS races, there are race reviews, drivers interviews, other short presentations etc... Everything is replayed few times during the week, and we are very lucky to have this much time and space on TV for LFS.
Thats from U35 and I also like it best. Problem with it is lot of clipping when wind kicks in and with lots of cars in sight, so we have to lower car sound volume to something like 4-5 and even wind a little bit.
I would vote for "slower" but I only used G25 with H shifter for two days, and now I had to return it. Heel-toeing was great fun, 3 times more work than with 2 pedals and paddles and autoclutch, so it was very difficult to get really used to it at least in this short time.
I'm very interested if it is indeed possible to drive at "WR pace" like this. I suppose it is with ehough practice and dedication.
