Having the exact same problem with different graphics card - Radeon 9550. LFS running fine for more than 1½ year, but a some days ago it developed this problem. Maybe while updating to patch W?
Tried updating display driver, but still refuses to run. Maybe a new bug introduced?

Only if its speed drifting =P


I donno, Limiting like that wouldn't be nice. Once you open a car you should be able to keep driving that car no matter what license.

I think its the only way to even things out AND to get people learn more driving skills. For instance, a lot of danish drivers only drives fwd cars, thereby missing a great aspect of racing. illepall

Quote from vari :

...I would have changed it so that FXO is the only car available for silver drivers and for them only...

Thats by far the best idea in my opinion!

Differential sound gone? Since updating from U20 -> U30, the high-pitched sound from a revving rear differentail is missing. Try for yourself = Make a gear setup, where the rear differential is 7.500 or highest possible. This no longer yelds a sound

It doesnt seem to make a difference whether you drive with the roof off or on? In my opinion, it should have a lot more wind resistance with the roof off. Because of that, it seems there is no reason to mount the roof at all?

This must be an aerodynamics bug.

Four players from my team has been testing this:

When doing ALT+TAB to go back to windows while running LFS, LFS randomly freezes. You have to do it 5-10 times, but then all the suddan you have a nice freeze, requiring you to hard reset the computer. I guess we all have nvidia cards, ranging from 6600LE to 6800GT. We believe this phenomen was introduced in patch U20. Can you please have a look and verify that there is a problem?

Thank you.

Jesper

Noo, remove ur current lfs install, and make a new one, just dont forget to back up the skins,and setting folder

Thats exactly what you should do.

Regarding the answer from victor to "humbleridderen", I think that should be pinned somewhere for future reference, so that race admins know for sure whats going on.

I'm just waiting eargerly for that possibility to rewind a replay. Would save lots of time, when trying to do screenshots etc.

Quote from col :

Pretty funny, first you state publicly that the guy is a cheat, (an assumption based on ignorance), and then you tell him if he has a problem with this, that he should go to your forum - lol. Aside from the fact that the forum is run by folks who have demonstrated poor knowledge of LFS (or very low level of intelligence?), it's a foreign language forum. Telling him to take his problem there seems like a pretty daft suggestion !

Maybe you should just apologise to him here ?

First of all, I'm very willing to apologize. The reason I asked him to go to our forum is because I could miss it here. The forum i suggested him is indeed for foreigners, in english.

I will kindly ignore you're insulting me. Since you weren't at the server when this happened, you haven't got the knowlegde to participate that deeply. I were there, and it did in fact look funny to me. I have never seen anybody lag so much without "speedhack". When it also wrote "joos-main" in red, which i remember as being a modified or older executable, I took the decision, based on lag and that message. Furthermore, the outstanding lag was causing other drivers to loose connection.

To Webster: I sincerely apologize if you really didnt do anything wrong, but now you know why i did what i did. If you're right, then you have major problems. Either your machine, internetconnection or both is not operating properly.

How about being able to filter servers locally? That i could ban those servers in my lfs here?

Quote from Webster :

After a long time I decided to try racing online again. I always had a lot of problems keeping a connection. Earlier today when I tried at first I was upset because people seemed to ram into me for no reason, but I thought fine, I'll just keep going. I lost connection, rejoined, then got a message from someone which read "Webster, don't use hacks"(or similar). I honestly don't even know exactly what that means, was I being accused of something? I'm just a middle aged guy who's not too computer savy(and can't type and drive at the same time lol) but wants to race cleanly. I do remember once getting a message "Webster, how come I can't see you"? Maybe that's why people were driving right into me. Can anyone tell me what's up with the no hacks message? I think it was VCS ...not sure.

Yes it was VCS indeed. You were logging on and off and the last time it said in red "JOOS -main", which means you run a modified version of some kind and we will NOT allow such things on our server!

It is not okay to go try out "mods" on public servers, unless specific told it is okay by welcome msg or other.

If you feel this is not correct, please go to www.vcs.dk and post in our "miscelleneous" and we will treat you with respect and take it from there.

For the last few weeks, I noticed that on top of my serverlist (because of the low ping as they are located in my country) there are two danish servers called something with "fedpik.dk", which in english is "Fat Dick".

As I also have children racing online, I think this is beyond acceptable! Are there ways to avoid this?

Yeah... Pretty dead!

Quote from MZWiZard :

I noticed that even in patch T, when driving the longer tracks like Aston GP, part of the minimap disappears in the top and left. Would it be a simple fix to move it a couple of pixels? And to compensate, make it a little smaller?

Kind Wishes,

Jesper

I meant: Would it not be an easy fix?

Quote from Pablo.CZ :

I dont like virtual mirrors and other huds, but what about many times suggested ability to set left & right view angle? Today, 90deg is totally useless for me, i cant see mirrors and situation before me.

I second that. Left & right view should be fully customizable in degrees of turning head.

I use "NHANCER" to turn on 4xsupersampling and 2x2 multisampling combined together with 16x anisotropic filtering. My shimmering is history...
