2: I just voted for SO long so don't think it is closed.

Well, you can still vote of course. But it won't do any good
I can't close the poll So officially its still open, but it won't change anything now.

Quote from southamptonfc :

BF1 SO long

1: BF1 wasn't in the options
2: The poll is closed

Quote from geeman1 :

Fun car, but I am afraid the server won't see much popularity with it. :|

We'll see.

After a while I will switch to AS North with LX6, FZ5 and RAC.

Fun combo

The result:

Track: Blackwood
Cars: LX6
Laps: 5 laps
Wind: No

Surprised that the LX6 went away with the victory. Sweet :-)|

I'm going to let it go a bit more.

But I have to say I am disappointet that it seems it is the "standard" setup that is going to win.

Blackwood
TBO
5 laps
No wind

Thats original ;-)

Quote from RiGun :

LX6 on AS North without wind was my choice, it's a really nice track and the car makes it even more fun, the bad thing is that most ppl don't know hot to drive the LX6 so they give up and the servers end empty

I know, but that combo was kinda popular last year right after North was added.

Quote from zeugnimod :

It would be nice if everybody actually reads the first post and the options. Unlike Mc21....

Yeah, but when they press all the options they don't really make a difference annyway, since they give all of the options 1 point.

I have noticed that our teamserver isn't used much.

Its still on W-patch, but I think that version is still popular.
So what I want to do is to let you lads decide which combo, how many laps and so on.



Happy voting.


PS: Only one vote for track, car combo, laps and if you want wind or not. Please.


Edit: Can a moderator remove the "t" in the combo word?

Don't know if Scawen remembers me having a graphics problem with LFS - the whole games gfx would go wrong, the menus would all be white and the tracks and cars have no textures or rendering etc.

Well it still happens every now and then, say once a month, but usually happens when using Alt Tab and Shift and F4 a lot in one LFS session.

¨My advice would be to only use the Shift - F4 method.

1. What colour is my hair.
Red!

2. Why does my wife not like me
Because you are giving away money to random people on the internet.

3. What colour is my car....I want exact BMW colour spec please (hint not to different from my hair...doh..)
Red, 234 drops of yellow, and 56 drops of black, and some blue.

4. Why should I stop drinking whisky so much!
So you stop giving away voucher codes

What happends if people get inactive?

Quote from Ball Bearing Turbo :

B) I get a LOT of stuttering when using high-res skins. The worst case was a few seconds where a car actually paused on screen for a few seconds and the sound "skipped". That was about 3 seconds (!)

Same here, LFS were running with 90 fps++ before, now its stuck on 60fps and I get the stuttering to, it seems like it is the computers fault, but it happened after the new skin system.

Quote from Scawen :

Yes that is strange. It's an old bug though... I've looked into it before but couldn't see anything wrong with the code.

The problem is no-one has found a way to reproduce it. Maybe it's related to how you selected the track, what you had selected before, how you entered LFS, that kind of thing.

If there was a way to make it happen every time (or at least often) then I'm sure I could fix it.

I got it too on westhill with the TBO cars and the LX4. Annyway, I just entered the garage several times and finally the message stopped to appear.

I'm paying. £1 is nothing. Its just a symbolic amount of money imo.

I can't see the pics, buuuhuu


Are you guys going to do teh same today?

Quote from Rayo :

I prefer the official ladder system.

Official ladder system?


Though, this is just an idea for something that could be done with the new patch. Lets say 10 cars in each division.

Quote from detail :

Though, you can see so many collisions in LMS, that I'm not sure if LFS racers, who are quite careless, are able to drive safely.

I'm sure that that isn't going to be a bigger problem than it is on public servers atm.

The KY long config would have been the best track in LFS if it weren't for the oval part.

Yeah, I know :P

That was allso why I came up with the idea
But you aren't planing on putting some more weight on the FO8?

1 Race, 3 GTR cars, 3 champions, one for each car. + one overall champion

The thought is this.
With the new balancing option we can use lets say
FZR in GTR 1 division, an XRR with weight/less power
for GTR 2 division and FXR with even more weight/less
power in a GTR 3 division.


Thinking about LeMans where they drive many
car classes at the same time around the same track.
Though, there isn't really that much difference between
the fastest and the second fastest group of cars.
The ballancing have to be in a way that the classes are
uneven enough that the leader of GTR2 can't catch up
with the leader of GTR1, unless he/she makes a mistake.
But the classes have to be even enough that the fastest
GTR2 car can have a chanse to catch up with the slowest
GTR1 class car. Lets say 3 to 4 second difference between
the fastest on a track like AS Historic

Doing this in LFS means that we can change these
cars to be highly uncompetitive in a league, and we can
have races with 3 divisions at the same time (catch my drift?)


All drivers and divisions will share the same points system,
meaning that if a GTR 3 car manages to win the race (highly unlikely)
he will get the same ammount of points as a GTR1 car if it had won.
Meaning that there will be four throphy's. One each for the three GTR classes, and one overall champion. (most likely one from GTR1.)


Doing something like this in LFS would have been loads of fun,
the thing is that I don't have the time nor the spirit to manage an
event like this. This is just an idea, and I would love it if someone
made it happen.
This could allso be used with the TBO and LRF classes, maybe the
TBO and LRF classes together even.

Is anyone interested in something like this?

I had to cut the grass outside.

damn

I've set up the Heart of Racing server on that combo. 6 laps, just ask if you want more ;-)

Quote from Bawbag :

I think what he means is when you are just driving around killing time that you should let the leaders through without any holding up of any kind. I completely agree, when I join a server and join a race 3 laps in a 5 lap race, if the leaders come up behind me I let them by without compramising them at all because I am only on track getting some laps in for the next restart.

Ovcourse in a longer race the above rules should be used if they are being overlapped simply because they are slower, but if they are 2 or 3 laps behind I think it's pretty stupid holding up the leader when your race is done.

My thoughts exactly.

I think he's good enough to join Heart of Racing. eeeh
