Quote from clippit :*Silly LOOK AT ME post*

I suppose it's what your used to.

Yes, the prices for Young drivers here are very expensive. Once you hit your twenties however, then the prices are very cheap. It's not like it means we cant have a fun time driving. For example, you cant deny the fact that us Europeans get the best selection of cars out of the entire world. Same thing goes for some driving roads too.

I personally love the roads in and out of my town, Redditch. If i fancy some twisty, fast roads, then i head towards the Bromsgrove Highway and the Cloverleaf. If i fancy some country roads, then i simply head towards Studley and Coventry. All of these places are no more than 10 minutes away from my house. And as for driving near the coast, then i go to Cornwall, which has some of the best roads in the UK.

I love England.

Ooooo. I remember this thread!

Well, thanks to this lovely, cold, snowy, icy weather we are having in the UK right now, i have a new pet hate.

Hit and Run drivers! Twice, yes, TWICE i have had my car hit now. The first one was fairly light, and put a small crack in the bumper which didn't bother me at first as I'm getting it painted after winter, but my poor car has got a fair old smack some point last night, and has put a 10 inch dent in the rear wing.

Don't get me wrong, the dent is easily repairable and the car does not require a new rear wing, but the dent will still put on a hour or so worth of labour when i do get it painted, which will end up costing ME money, and not the ****er who hit it. It would of been nice if there was a note on my windscreen saying "Sorry.", but no. They just smack my car and run!

****ERS.

I have a slight Birmingham accent, or what we call, a "Brummy" accent. Luckily, it's not that strong, and I do not talk like a Brummy.

I sound a little like this, just not as much.

Go to 3:17.

Haha!

I don't know why, but the burning Rover on the side of the track really made me laugh. xD

I'm going to vote for you!

Don't take it too much to heart. It's only a Forum.

It's no big deal if you have got an Infraction. People will not instantly think your a nasty person, or avoid you now that you have gotten one.

And as for Franky being on a mission to punish you, well i think that statement is just because he was the one who gave you the infraction. I'm sure you would of said the same thing about SamH, or Bob.

If anything, he is no more annoying than you, and you are a very annoying little child.

Luke, WTF are you having a go at this guy for? I also don't know why you brought America into this discussion. It will only start an argument.

@ madfinn. Congratulations on your purchase! Have fun with it.

Quote from Osco :miatas don't have distributors

Senn: that does sound nice indeed

Is that just Miatas or MX-5's as well?

Fantastic. I will continue on with my "destructive tone" and "out of hand criticism".

Mainly because of the snow, and the fact that life is pretty damn fine at the 'mo!

Boo bloody Hoo Sam! Is it a Golden rule NOT to criticize photographers photos? This is a Forum. If your expecting 100% positive criticism from everyone, then you shouldn't be on a Forum in the first place.

My comment was not nasty, nor was i trying to discourage the guy from taking any photographs in the first place. My point was that the quality was very bad, and i wanted to know whether it was something to do with the Camera, or just the general environment (Harsh lighting at night).

The squeaking noise is a little concerning, but i don't think it's anything internal. Sounds to me like it's either the Auxiliary belt squeaking, or an actual Auxiliary part squeaking due to the cold, like the Alternator for example.

Theres multiple things that could be causing the car to misfire due to the cold, but it's very hard to diagnose a car over a Forum! If i had to take a guess though, i think it would be something to do with the HT Leads and/or the Distributor Cap.

It's a bug with the collision detection. It will also happen if you stay in someones pit garage, and they come out of the pits, spawning inside your car.

It is a bug that has existed for years and is well known.

LFSW can be found HERE.

Open the program you used to edit the skin, so Paint.NET for example. Open up your skin file (The one in 2048x2048) and then resize the skin to 1024x1024. After you have resized it, save the skin with the same name, over writing the 2048x2048 one.

KEEP THE PROGRAM OPEN AND DO NOT CLOSE IT. Goto the "My Online Car Skins" section on the LFSW Desktop, and upload the skin which you have just resized. After it has successfully uploaded, go back to your editing program and press UNDO (It will be either Ctrl+Z or in the toolbar somewhere), this should put the skin back to it's previous state.

Then, save the skin again with the SAME NAME and overwrite it. Then, once you have loaded it in LFS, everyone who has the high resolution downloads should be able to see the high resolution skin when you play online.

EDIT: No. You do NOT have to pay to upload high res skins and use high res skins you have downloaded. You will only need to pay if you want to see everyone elses skins in high resolution.

Thats when you download other peoples skins. To see there skins in high res, you need to pay for high res downloads.

I have never payed for high res downloads, but i can still use skins in 2048x2048 or higher.

Heres how you do it.

Before you start making the skin, make the base the size you want (2048x2048 for example).

After you have done everything you want to do to it, resize the skin down to 1020x1024 and save it with the correct name, for example XFG_thisismyskin.

Upload the skin to LFSW.

After you have uploaded the skin, hit the "undo" button, and this should put the skin back to 2048x2048 (or whatever size you had it before then). Then, save the skin again with the same name, and overwrite it. Then load the skin in LFS, and Voila! Your done.

P.S! If you have already saved the skin after sizing it down to 1024 and closing the program and then re-open the program, stretching it back to 2048 wont work and the quality will be terrible. You can only do it by UNDOING the previous resizing while the program is still open.

The new one i got for Christmas was apparently bought off eBay for £120. Comes with a 3 year warranty too, so it might be worth checking out eBay for another.

A guy on another forum i go on is also having the same issue.

Quote from boothy :What do you expect from a 1/4 second exposure on high ISO? Even though it is f2.8 and has IS, nothing will beat good hand holding or even better a tripod. And it is a compact digital camera, smaller sensors < DSLR sizes (APS-C) < Full frame for quality and noise.

Edit: or in fact, a 2s exposure.

Which is why i was asking was it the Cameras fault or the Users/Settings.

Some funny videos there Velociround, but i have to ask. Why is it, that you Brazilians/Spanish/Mexicans always say "kekekekekek" or the worst one, which is "jajajajajajajaja". Why the hell can't you guys just say "lol"! It's really annoying!

I've just looked it up, and it would cost me £200 for a new one apparently.

So is it just the settings you have used, or the capabilities of the camera? It's not that i was trying to put you down about your pictures, but the fact that there so blurry and full of noise makes me think my phone could take a better picture.

Quote from Zay :Lol dude.
You can't blow up an engine in LFS and what happenned there was you ran out of fuel.
If you were running normally and then suddenly the engine cutrs off then you ran ouyt of fuel. Besides, if the engine blew up you would know it, because the engine would make a 'pop' noise and there (very likely)will be black smoke. If I were you I would go crawl up in a whole and hide from the hummiliation of of not figuring out something so obviously obvious, and plus, you could have just pressed F12 and it would say: Fuel:0.00%.

Haha! That's rather hilarious.

You try to make yourself look clever by pretending you know something, then make yourself look like an idiot after you have been proven wrong!

I suggest you go crawl up in a hole. I also suggest you go back to school and learn the correct way to spell and use grammar.
