Quote from tristancliffe :Tools -> Options -> Web Features -> Load Images -> Exceptions. Try that

There is only one adv. server I added myself in the past. I can see all pictures in lfsworld, all tabs but I can't click on it (except desktop icons).

Victor>
Yes, everything look OK, but I can't click at window tabs or at track pictures or some picture buttons (for example "Show" on Online Racer Stats). Desktop icons for opening windows, racers submenus, combos, resizing windows etc work well.. Seems like some "submit" function broken? Track pictures can't get focus, I mean it's background don't change on mouse over.
crtl-f5 or all cache clear didn't help.

I will try fresh FF install, we'll see

EDIT: oh no, fresh FF install to new directory, fresh FF profile and the same problem..

EDIT2: I tried my test XP instalation on second partition where I have FF 1.5 RC2 for testing purposes and site work OK.

Should be moved to technical assistance

Tabs in windows on LFSWorld.net don't work for me. Yesterday it was ok.
It's only me or some site problem?
Firefox 1.0.7

EDIT> IE works, maybe something on my side..

I think developers haven't purchased licenses, so they race only on demo servers under fake names

Quote from thisnameistaken :I've been thinking about getting an XGA projector instead of a monitor when I next upgrade, for similar reasons. Ooh, actually, two projectors would solve the "LFS on two monitors is crap because of the line down the middle" problem!

Why 2 projectors? People use 2 monitors coz one is too small, but when you have projector making picture 100"+ there is no problem with size.
I tried projector (Sanyo 1024x768 ~2800$ (prices are much lower now)) about year and half ago and realized that 3,5m (~140") is too big. Imo ideal size for driving is about 100" and you don't need 2 projectors for this size. Another problem is to have place for 200" projecting screen at home.

Bug? When I edit (for example player name) and delete color number, some other char instead of folloving char appear. Example:
player name "^4p^1o^7a Pablo", delete "7" and "*" instead "a" appear.
I know some ^X are codes for changing codepages, but iirc not ^a..

Quote from Scawen :The special key (to make those buttons visible while a text entry box is open) will probably be CTRL or CTRL+SHIFT. This would only be used for unusual purposes, for example, someone like me who only has a UK keyboard layout installed, could use that to switch to Cyrillic and write a Russian word.

CTRL+SHIFT and/or LEFT ALT+SHIFT is used for changing languages and/or keyboard layouts in Windows..

Quote from Scawen :This post would be more useful if you stated which fixes you can't wait for. .......

Scawen please don't count "^X" characters to length of player name and number plate strings. We started new league and decided to use real names, but many guys can't use whole name with colored team tag.

This will be great for watching replays and making videos. I'm using custom/ext view for driving (slightly different than built-in incar view) and I need another 'slot' for bumper or whatever other view from car (when making video). Setting custom/ext2 ruin my custom/ext driving view.
More camera 'slots' please!

Quote from Scawen :Text width remains constant in wide screen modes

thanks, LFS menus looks great again!

Quote from Scawen :It's wider. It's a side effect of something else and i decided to leave it because it seemed to be more readable.

Because the letters needed to be squashed a little vertically, to fit in the accents, so they were then made larger on the buttons and user messages, to compensate. And that left them the same height as the old ones but slightly wider.

I decided that looked better than the old thin ones, so i wouldn't go trying to adjust all the widths again... but everyone else's opinions are welcome, of course.

Is there a chance to have option to set "characters aspect ratio"? (wider ones looks like on old 8bit computer for me ).
I'm using 1280x720 screen resolution and then aspect ratio of characters is different and characters looks too wide and ugly.

EDIT> I tried 1280x1024 and characters looks great! But on my 16/9 resolution it's much worse.

I had race with forced pitstop yesterday and I was looking for setting not to change tires too (90% works but "never" option will be nice)

Changing fuel slider start from 5% to 0% is good improvement. Not only for pit refueling but for initial amount too. We had race in lowest fuel consumption (longest distance) and 5% for start is very much when you can do lap under 0.1%

Agree with Cue-Ball. LFS has very good physics, but it's true that some cars are too "slidey". Not only LX6 or RAC.. For example RB4 on asphalt goes to skid nearly in every curve. Another problem with braking, stock tyres can blow up after several very short wheel locks - didn't notice on my real car
Problem is that this bugs can discourage new sim racers from buying and even worse, these people can discourage many friends when they tell them that LFS isn't real and that GTR (for example) is better (which isn't true!).

Quote from Tweaker :...
I'd really like to see the engine damage back to the way it was before.

Me too. And I'd like to see cooler damage.. Many friends said me that it isn't so realistic game when you can do heavy front crash and no engine damage..

Quote from L(Oo)ney :Like i said to morrow - Im not willing to share my scene, as you wont learn anything by using a pre-setup scene.

You'll either have to follow grudds 3d tutorial like i did, or wait for ian.h to release the rest of his scenes.

Sorry.

OK..
I'm 3ds noob, I made some FZR renders from scenes but now I don't have enough time to learn how to make my own scene due to the one picture
So, I will wait for Ian.H scene or maybe for long winter evenings

Quote from Boris Lozac :"All cars" servers are really not helping LFS!
...

That's true! Sometimes I've only 1 hour for playing LFS and it took me over 1/2h to find server with TBO coz most of servers are "all cars" and I must find out what cars people have. And when I finally find adequate server, after 5 minutes join someone with FV8 (coz it's not restricted) and spoil race...
Result is that sometimes instead going online I hotlaping or doing something different than playing LFS.
Connection thru "Display list of games" bug [fixed-P4]

Sometimes during server list writing out several red "Could not find host" messages appear.

After that
- if you press space to stop host check, game write out "Stopping host check" and "freeze up".
- if you do not press anything, list of games is finished, but "Press SPACE to stop host check" message don't disapear and game "freeze up" again.
In both cases, you cannot click on any server and connect, ESC or something else don't work.

Only working thing is [?] button for display players on server.
So you must close game by close application button [X] and try again and again..

Quote from SchneeFee :i used only 1 static camera (at 0:22), what do u mean?

Sorry for my bad english..
Static cameras - I meant cameras which are on static place like in tv and only rotating and zooming - like in your movie.
I don't like unrealistic moving cameras behind the car somewhere in air.. but it isn't your case..
As I said, great movie!

Great movie, great static cameras! Maybe it will be better not to use onboard camera in position of eyes, but after all it's one of the best over 100 movies i've ever downloaded.

Great tool!

Is it possible to move mates from one group to other? (only delete mate and create again in other group works for me)

Idea: it will be nice to see what car online people driving - on servers with all cars enabled I don't know what cars are in race before join
