Unless you think you're really going to be using the 3 pedals + shifter and all the other fancy stuff that comes with it. Id recommend a Driving Force Pro (DFP) which is tonnes cheaper and does the job perfectly!
You've probably already fixed this problem by now, but I might aswell post this anyway.
I know whenever I reinstall Server 03 and all of the drivers for the gfx + Dx update I need to change the Hardware acceleartion back to full to allow LFS to boot. Although you say you are running as a dedicated server, im not really sure if it will help much here.
But if you can, bump up the hardware acceleration in your Display properties and see if that solves anything
Spiking is when the pots just go all haywire, irregular contact or something...
As for logitech replacing your hardware beacuse its old and not working, well wouldnt that be like replacing my shoes because they've got a hole in it?
Great tool, just starting to use it more often now but Id like to suggest a few things if that be ok?
Firstly would it be possible to have the selected item refresh whenever I have it selected in the server list? Have it on a small interval or something so that I don't need to refresh the whole list to find if there is a free slot available. Perhaps also include a 'Wait to join / queue' type function too, which starts LFS and connects or notifies me as soon as a slot is free.
Also, when I browse a server to view the players that are in the server, perhaps once a player name is double clicked it opens up there LFSWorld page to view their stats?
I'm sure these things could all be implemented, you might have already thought of them yourselves.
Once you reinstall windows you need to readjust the hardware acceleration, Im not sure if you need todo this with ATI but nVidia doesnt adjust it for you. You'll know it so if you use the nVidia control panel, if you right click on your desktop and go to properties, then try and select the nVidia tab in Settings, it will error and tell you why.
Probably isnt DirectX because XP has 8.1 I think as default.
What about all the riots and havoc England supporters cause over seas... Im not suprised they went all out and layed down a beating, its not like England is known for its peaceful and loving football fans is it?
And take that attitude and stick it up your arse, dont like what we have to say to your posts? Then dont post anything at all, Im almost certain you've said something along those lines before.. Oh wait
Practice what you preach, or get the phuck out of church.
Oh you're the fella who called me a 'countriest' and a 'british fag' to which im neither, your attitude stinks too but what the hell.
Oh and Im sorry for overtaking cleanly on the outside of the Oval and you hitting me, I wasnt aware you had to overtake on the inside... Really need to get my hands on that Oval LFS rule book
Ok to put it bluntly.. No one cares, The reason you're getting alot of 'smart remarks' is purely because you're wasting space with really petty stuff. If you want the respect you seem to command then drop the topic and just move on, be the bigger man! :ernaehrun
Ill update it to the next proper patch but I dont think its really worth knocking another one up just for V2. If you still want it though ill PM you the updated version, it shouldnt take me more then 5 minutes to renew.
NTL (Now Virgin Media) would be my first choice, perhaps a little pricey but its realiable. The customer service for NTL in general sucked, but its now under new management so perhaps they will improve in that area.
The modem and the topbox blew because of a thunder storm, they sent an engineer around 2 days later to replace it.. No questions no fuss..
You're 8 years old and you're on the interweb with your own team and team website, thats just scarey to me. Not because you're 8 and you have mad computer haxor skills, but because you're probably not 8 and you try and fool people into thinking you are.
Oh my heart bleeds for you really it does, but you spam this forum silly.
My opinion is this : Whatever you can afford, buy it. The performance gain of things in the same price range is minimal, infact its probably not even noticable. It all comes down to money and how much you can spend and when you're next going to upgrade to a newer system.
