How to run LFS on both monitors?
Thx

I'm quite sure he wants it to run on both of them

Just another idea...laptops generally have a special key combination that must be pressed to activate the external monitor...maybe a monitor icon on one of the function keys...you might need to have a look at your manual.

Mi sono ricordato che i portatili, in genere, hanno una sequenza di tasti da premere per attivare il secondo monitor...magari c'è un'icona di monitor su uno dei tasti funzione...dai uno sguardo al tuo manuale.

Hi.
I think you can easily do it, without much hassle...
I also have 2 monitors (primary 1680x1050 - secondary 800x600), but not the same resolution, I think you are lucky to have 2x1024x768, from this perspective.
When the game starts, say on your primary monitor, press shift+F4 to "window" it. It must NOT run maximized.
Then, drag the window accordingly, sizing it in order to fill both your 2 displays...Maybe you'll have to adjust your in-car view a little.
I think it's enough, I didn't fiddle with LFS graphics config.
I can do it on my pc...

Italian translation follows...

Ciao.
Penso che ci si possa riuscire, senza troppi problemi.
Anch'io ho 2 monitor, di diversa risoluzione (primario 1680x1050 - secondario 800x600), e penso che da questo punto di vista sia meglio averne 2 uguali, come hai tu.
Lancia LFS e premi Shift+F4 per metterlo "in finestra". LFS non deve essere "massimizzato".
Poi trascina la finestra, ridimensionandola come ti serve, riempiendo i 2 display, al massimo dovrai un po' aggiustare la tua visuale dal posto di guida.
Secondo me basta così, a me funziona, non ho smanettato per niente nella configurazione grafica di LFS.

I have a DFGT too, but I use its red wheel to set FF level, that's why I never replied to your post...
I wouldn't use it to control Media Player...

Quote from MudPuppy :Oh wow, that is all quite a revelation!
......and S2 has not yet got as far as beta, but rather a lot of people bought it in this present alpha stage. Good lord! That is not something you'd expect to see happen every day........Most odd.

Don't get this info wrong!!

NotAnIllution's post is 100% precise (as info), but I must say that, though it's "ALPHA", the current version of LFS has nothing to do with a real alpha version of any software...
I never had a crash, a BSOD, or whatever. It's rock solid, go for it.
Plus, you get all those extra lovely cars & tracks.

Quote from burnsy1882 :I might, didn't know if I would be allowed to do so, but yeah, would probably be a better idea to give it more exposure.

As long as you give the obvious inspirational-credit to Erazotropa...Devs and admins here are smart people I really don't think there could be any problem whatsoever.

Quote from burnsy1882 :...So hopefully I can get more than just 8 people so far download the program.

Cheers for your new VLFSD Clone development! Good to see it revamped!

In order to get more than a few downloads, you should maybe start a new thread to get more attention ??!?!?!?!? Just a consideration...

Hi.
How can I export only one car to 3ds format ??
I have tried to:

open the V2 scene,
select a car,
select all (press A),
export

but when I import the generated 3ds file, all I get is the standard "cube".
I have installed Python 2.62.

Quote from logitekg25 :i see no bug

Look closer

Yeah, I don't know it's really a >bug< (nor does it really bother me that much) anyway there is that darker line on the lower end of each light, then its reflection should correspondigly be on the higher part of the (reflected) light, no ??

Cool program!!
Some of my first tries: the first 2 screens are 7+ hours rendering (V2 scene) with the office pc overnight.
Notice the "bug" on the reflections of the RAC 2 lower front lights (second pic).

I guess it's Airio which adds splits, sectors and so on...
You find these features in every "Airio powered" server.

Actually, I don't think there is such a possibility...never heard of it anyway...
DFGT - mechanical dead zone
Ripley
S3 licensed
Hi there.
Have been looking on several forums, but couldn't find an answer...
Well, as my lousy skills slowly progress, I find this mechanical dead zone more and more annoying, expecially when changing car's directions, there are those few degrees of rotation when the wheel doesn''t respond as it should. Yesterday I made many laps with the RAC and it was quite obvious that this is a major problem.
Being my first wheel I didn't notice it right away, and I've got accustomed to this "feature" (which has always been present).
There is no dead zone in the calibration, wheel runs steady and smoothly, but I feel that something in the inner mechanism (FFB belts...I guess) has a bit of "play", and the problem is present only when FFB is set > than 0%.

I don't even know if mechanical dead zone is the right description for these symptoms...anyway the question is: is it a known issue ? Is there a way to fix it ?
I mean is it possible to open the wheel and tighten something ?

Quote from morpha :...older versions have a bug resulting in non-linear feedback at 100%...

Can you confirm that this bug is resolved in latest 5.04 Logitech software ?

Hi.
In Logitech software I have assigned the "." (point) and "," (comma) keys to the DFGT red wheel (point is CW rotation, comma is CCW).
They are LFS reserved keys, so it works without further assignments.
