how the hell did we drag our arse through that game!!!!

Quote from danowat :

Well, tomorrow is the first day of my "real" training, culminating in my test on Wednesday, so fingers crossed it doesnt rain between then and now!!!.

Dan,

You'll be alright!

Quote from Albieg :

I might try in the weekend, if it's not too late, with a setup almost equal to yours (laptop, desktop and router), using a dlink router. I can't do that before saturday, unfortunately. I'll let you know.

Look forward to your results!!

Where else do you get developer feedback like that!!

Unlike some other poor buggers trying to get info out of their developers
Sorry for that!!

Managed to get connected to the master server!!!

Question:

Is it possible to run lfs on a laptop as a host server behind a router, at the same time, on a pc, behind the same router, connect to the laptop (host) via the master server?

At the moment this is causing problems!
Any assistance greatly appreciated.

Andrew

Thx mate, Just did more searching and found the answers..

Cant wait till it arrives, fed up using keys

makes driving the rwd more entertaining

Just got my DFP a few weeks ago and its brilliant.

1st download the driver from the wingman website http://www.wingmanteam.com/ and install it, then plug in dfp and hey presto it works a treat, its as simple as that!! You can then edit the profiler to suit your self for all the buttons

Do any of you english guys remember before the cbt etc, there was still some sort of limit, however, if you had a sidecar, you could ride anything!!
blokes could ride a gsxr1100 with a flexible third wheel on the side , which moved up and down to allow the bike to lean over, to get around the sidecar rule!!!! didn't look good though!

Quote from danowat :

Very tough question, to start with I would say something small, low capacity and cheap, screw image till you get some NCB behind you.

BTW, Alfa's are VERY high insurance, I looked at a 156 JTD and it was group 16!!!.

Dan,

My first was a mk2 escort, £300 to buy and the same to insure (in 1989) it was dead simple to repair because it was a dead simple car. Unfortunately today, most cars these days are much more complicated to repair and run!! But its the insurance which is the killer, so you need to check that first

Quote from yegadoyai :

Considering what I got up to in my mums Corsa after passing my driving test there is NO WAY I'm getting a bike. I trust that I'd be safe and all but it's all those other buggers on the road that make it unsafe. At least in a car I've got a ton of metal as protection from thier ton of metal.

yeah, tell me about it, i t boned by some old pillock in a micra, he just pulled out on me. when he decided to look my way he then STOPPED, if he'd carried on i would have missed him as i was already heading towards the back of his car. but my right hand side hit the back end, 5 broken ribs, broken collar bone and a puctured lung. the 'best' bit was getting a ride in the air ambulance, although you dont see very much as you are looking straight up into the sky!!
off work for 6 weeks, but test riding soon to be mine zx7-r after 4 weeks, trouble was the collar bone hadn't fully repaired so 'floated a bit'!!!

but enough of the doom and gloom, when the weather is good (yes i was a fair weather rider) motor bikes are the best!!

Quote from danowat :

I just want to ride it so badly!!!!!

http://i9.photobucket.com/albums/a96/danowat/Image3.jpg

You could start it up and ride it on the centre stand!!!!

I can't remember where you were doing your test, but i had mine in bristol. The examiner actually follows you round in his car!!! The instructions are to keep going straight unless told otherwise, i kept losing him as he was stuck in traffic whereas i could carry on. An intense half an hour but well worth it!!

All the best

Andrew

Quote from BigDave2967 :

I been searching on the S-S servers, and I see drivers using MRTs, FOX and BF1s, but not v8s.

Doesn't anyone want to drive the v8s anymore? I feel lonely .

give me a few days, just getting used to a new dfp and learning to handle the v8

Quote from Greboth :

Try this.

Open up the files use the magic wand to select the writing.
Create a new layer and have this layer selected.
Go : Select ----> modify ----> expand ---> choose pixel number
Then go: Select-----> Feather -----> choose value 0.3.

Then fill selection with white and there you go

Edit : If you cant do that then post message up and i will (or sumone else if get there first) post the images up with the white egde to them

YOU ARE A STAR!!!!!
THANK YOU VERY MUCH INDEED!

Andrew

Thanks for all the input!!

I tried the BMW again around SO, thats just insane everywhere, its pure adrenalin as the corners keep coming at an astounding rate!

Quote from ajp71 :

Fern Bay Green - love it and hate it in equal measure in any car

i'm getting that way, the frustration does my head in but get it right....

Quote from Rtsbasic :

Its fun to try, I found the DFP doesn't really counter-turn fast enough without a bit of help, normally I run rally in 420 degrees, I've never seen a rally car with the full 900.

Sounds like your having plenty of fun with your DFP though

Hi Rtsbasic,

Cracking wheel, been relearning all the tracks turn in points on lfs!!
Makes quite a difference on full mode, certainly well worth it, thought i'd try rbr as well but very difficult so i'll try your suggestion!!

Quote from deggis :

Forget 900. It's hard enough even with 240 degrees.

tell me about it, at least i was reasonably rubbish, now i'm pathetic

Quote from Jakg :

its an FPS meter atm

no its not, its a temp guage, the fps is an extra dial

Quote from Rappa Z :

i like BF1/As North.

any bit in particular that feels good?

Having just bought a dfp i thought i would try this using 900deg mode.....
HOW DIFFICULT!!!
anyone else use dfp in 900deg mode?

Quote from _Rob_ :

That bit of FE3 that the OP likes, but on FE3R, it's just that bit more challenging
What car? Well, LX4/6 or GTT for me

more challenging still!!!!
jeeze the way i mentioned is tricky enough!!

whats the most satisfying combination of corners and in which car?
for me, i've just been learning fern bay gold in the FO8, the section after the first chicane and on to the straight is mad!!

It turns out i've got Photoshop Elements, i take it this is not the full blown photoshop, so it doesn't look like i've got all the options
