ok done some testing with team mates on that server

i dont know if it was because of the ping or somthing but there was a little lag, idd say for someone with a smaller ping would have no probs.
it seems ok to race on from our team but we are all in australia so we are always going to get some bad pings.

otherwise great server mate thanks

btw i done a network debug and got around 0.50 off the other drivers in there and that was with 5 of us in there.


good luck with the server

just looked but not there ?

ill look again in 5 mins

thanks racemania

edit its up now thanks

Quote from manintightpants :

Heres an early fzr skin in 2048 and 1024 res. I can edit the skin if you want me too or if you are happy with it I can transfer it to any other cars you want

ok this is what some of my team mates asked for:

some nice big DDGTR on the back and the sides where you got the other logos please and if posible one on the wing.

and can we have one for the xrr cause one of the members runs the xrr the rest run the FZR but still good job thanks

is there a way to change the color behind the skin like to diff colors instead of the silver if not dont worry but just thought idd ask.


thanks racemania

mmm ok maybe your wheel might not work on you pc due to age the madcatz one i got is analog and didigtal so i think thats why it works i also know that all wheels dont work for pc so maybe an upgrade to a better wheel might be the go i know you can get them on ebay cheap mate just got one for $12.50 au and its awsome for lfs.

other than what ive said theres not much else i can help with im not a teccy but i do understand a bit about stuff like this


ok well hope you have some luck

racemania

hi all just wanted to know what to do here

ive got my server hooked up ports fowarded and everything works well my team mates conect to me no problems at all but there is some lag
the problem i have is idd like to go see how many servers are online and pings compared to mine but whne i load the master list up i get every server except mine is there a way i can see mine.

this is how i have my config for the internet

router > my pc running lfs > my server hosting lfs

and then back to the internet all ports are fowarded to the server computer hosting lfs.

its not important but i would like to know for a referance thanks

racemania

Quote from Mazz4200 :

there is a little programme called DXTweaks (think thats it's name), that might help you get it sorted. Give me a couple of mins and i'll see if i can find it for you.

[edit] Ok, that took a bit longer than expected (Yahoo is shit).
Try this page, http://www.wingmanteam.com/lat ... adgets.htm#DX%20Tweak%202 there's a lot of really useful stuff here. It's not all for Logitech stuff either, i used DXTweaks for my old Thrustmaster wheel before it blew up

that wont support his wheel his is a lotus wheel not a logitec thats why theres a xbox one already made for pc games xbcd so i recomend trying that before anything else

sorry about this but i didnt have a propper look before and have now just realised that this wheel is a lotus one.

have ago at the above post of mine and ill see what i can come up with for you we will get you racing in time for that s2 license

Quote from RoCkBiGdAvE :

Thats what i did to get my pedls working too.

I set them to RX+ and RY+ if i remeber correctly.

Theres no button on my wheel to change it from digital to analogue so its always in analouge. I admit the game is more fun with the wheel (but i have to re-learn my driving stlye ) but its just the rree play it has when straightening up thats the problem.

I've seen a nice wheel for £30 down the shops, not to sure on what it is, but its nice and has a nice feel to it. The man even allowed me to put lfs on a laptop he has and try it out and its spot on. No DFP's tho

xbox will always run as analog im sure unless ive done somthing wrong but if you go in game and click options>misc>and find analoge steer and turn it to full you should then be able to play with it till you get a setting that works.
theres also the controls area in game where you can set diff steer settings from what i know you will need to play with them a bit till its just right also if it has FF turn it on you will love the game even more i just cant imagine playing with out it now but have to admit when drifting its dose get hard to control.

with the steering wheel have you got the latest update for xbcd i think there up to 7 if i remember corectly ive emailed the developer many times about problems setting the controls up but still no hot fix for it yet.
also has it got a calibrate button on the wheel if it dose is it working corectly, if you have a xbox controller wired the same plug that in and see if it works if not then it could be your wires hooked up wrong i had this problem when i first done mine i had the wires in the wrong place and everything was backwards, if your control works well idd see if one of your mates has a wheel and try theres out could be a problem inside your wheel like a circutry board or somthing other than that theres not much eles i could think of other than,

when you spliced the cord off the xbox steering wheel did you keep the little black spliter before the conector on the cord or have you choped it back too far i know form another control i done that this part is needed i dont know what its for but the controls dont seem to work as well without them if you can post a pic of the wiring from usb to xbox wheel just to see how far up the wires you cut.

thats about all i can do for now but this dose work for me and has been for 2 yrs now.

thanks racemania

cool thanks man there nice

heres one a team members worked on but its plain and its private atm

so ok ive set a new team from australia heres the details here

monaro : team member / website stuff


we are starting off with just 6 ppl on the team but will be looking for new crew members soon all are welcome to join

thanks racemania

hey just read your full post here ive got my xbox madcatz2 wheel hooked up and works fine

the way i done mine was with xbcd and just set the pedles to sliders i dont use in lfs set a profile up so when i play diff games i dont have to re set it up all the time the steering worked out good just play with the analogsteer in game for a better steering feel also when your driving if your frame rate gets too low the wheel wont work as good
the xbox wheel works really well and i cant think of anything better to use it for as now i never play my xbox its still put to good use


hope this helps a little best i could come up with

well the team is drift drag and grip so it dont matter about the decals just any that look good atm would be cool.

as for colors i will ask my team mates and post back

thanks for your reply

[EDIT] colors any of these or a mix orange, red, blue, green, black

Quote from DethMag :

Think I joined about the same time...and I never raced online until April this year

Now i've been away for 4 days in New York on business (on a cruddy work laptop) and i'm not sure if I miss LFS or my girlfriend more!

definetly LFS i went away last month and i missed LFS more than my wife and kids its way too addictive.

but hey thats what you get for buying s2

i think if my wife had the chance she would delete lfs from my hdd just to be able to talk to me lol


@Mini_ron_82 you will love it online, its more fun than playing offline

Quote from Snookle :

@racemania: You might have a firewall blocking LFS registering your server with the master server.

mmm i turned off my firewall and still nothing this is how i got my server hooked up

modem----> my pc ----> server
then
Server-----> my pc ----> internet

its thew only way i could get my server working till i get new router with my adsl2+ next month

i have a direct conection between my server and gaming pc then all internet has to run through my pc first

sorry if its in the wrong section but thanks for advice

thanks racemania

Shafz.

mmm i cant find it aswell just lucky i kept an old copy before i updated

it was there a few weeks ago though so maybe the dev took it away to stop confusion in the downloads i know of people who have downloaded the old s2 alpha Q in confusion of what to download

but maybe i might be looking in the wrong place

sorry cant help more
