don't forget about that other app - camhack, it overrides LFS set camera height, I tested and it does work with TV director.

looking forward to the next big update to LFS myself, most console games don't really ever get an update, not to the same extent as LFS anyway, you get more value for money from LFS, that's for sure, and no online subscribtion to play it either.

Hot damn this is good, in five minutes I had got some cams setup and it worked.....! Amazing!
Do you have any problems with me trying it on OLFSLtv (www.lfs-league.com)? Happy to add a link back here, or whatever.

I'll give those a try!! - although setting the tv to primary display messed things up once before for me a while ago.
TV out

Hi there,

Does anyone know a loop hole to the tv out problem where if you clone your screen with the tv, any video files in a media player do not show on the tv, just an empty media player with sound?

Cheers

Don't think they'll be any streaming of this tune up, as I have an MOEgt race Sunday too.
great

This is sound like a good tool, especially the action detector.

I've experimented with autokeys, which works, but this sounds better.

So far all I can do is get views and cars switching automatically on a set routine, but very interested in this for OLFSLtv (www.lfs-league.com), would be willing to finance for a final version, if not freeware of course.

- edit.

Ok, I've just used it and it is fantastic.
only two complaints.

1 = if someone is standing on track after a crash, the camera stays on them for far too long, even when they are standing still.
2 = maybe it should jump to the leader every now and then, watched a race where the leader had no action, the camera never went to the front, stayed in midfield.

Other than that, brilliant.

I too would like help with other tracks, if needed.

Well I did a short test last night on redline racing, and I did indeed have an auto car and camera switching tv stream. Once the new hardware is ready, a 24hour stream should be easy.

just found a good program, although it doesn't recognise the tab key, any way to swap tab in LFS?

Hi there!

I'm about to re-setup the live video and audio streaming system for OLFSL. It was previously run by guy called Fireball, but I'm giving it a try now, will be a bit different, but hopefully pretty good.

It has proven sucsessful in it's previous managed state, but I'm also looking to create a 24 hour stream, with automated camera switching.

Is there an add on, which would cycle through the camera modes, cars in a set, or specfied order, for times when it would be unattended, like when I'm in bed or at work?

Forgot to come back and finish this thread.

I traced the graphics problem down to graphics card load, whilst trying to overclock, this happens more, so obviously the strain gets to it sometimes.

The BF1 and FOX display problem, was simply the option to change the colour of the display to black in the LFS settings, moved the bars to the right and walla, the display is back. Problem is, if you make the display black, the text should change to match so you don't lose all the text.

Both problems solved anyways.

Quote from spookthehamster :If it's so important, wait until you're in the pits or at the end of the race, then say it

Well most wheel races don't do that...!

I've had nothing but bad luck with LFS and gamepads, to be honest, I think Windows itself has a big problem. Calibration in windows always seems to fly off with me after a while, which is crap as games consoles, even wireless ones do not need calibration, even with different makes of controller for the same machine. Pisses me off as I like using pads for games sometimes.

Quote from Mike85 :They count as characters for chat, so they loose their initial function. I still say the car should go to AI mode when chatting. And the name of the player would change ("playername" + "AI controled") so that others know that he is currently chatting. The AI would be the "learnt" AI. Or it could also be semi-automatic. AI + driver control. Like, the AI would drive, but the player could take control whenever he wanted.

I think it would be nice. I also have many more ideas which I have to write down sometime

I like the idea in theory, auto pilot sounds good, but, it would be too easy to let it do the whole race after it learnt what you did for ten laps!
Chat for mouse users.

One thing that still bothers me, is when driving with my mouse I press Chat (t) you cannot control your car anymore. Please change this so people who can drive and type with mice don't have to pit to chat. Guys with wheels can, so why not us?
yup

Programmer wanted

Hi there.

I have a defunct chat program, which I like very much. The servers it used are well and truly dead, what I want is to change the sever path the program uses, so I can find all my old chat friends and we can use this program again.

I got a dissasembler and think I found the relavent address string, but can't see how to change it etc.

Wondered if any programmers out there could help me.

Thanks

Has anyone done the Italian Job video yet, with three UF1's or UFR's?

Around South City, maybe with some autocross bits added on?

Would be fantastic.

Some sort of MSN plugin or mod that instead of the personal message, shows if/where a driver is on server. I know there is already something like this, but not for MSN.

Worked fine for me!

Much prefer new BF1 sound.
Good, but not great
russraine

I think all the updates to the menus etc are good. The sounds are fine but no better or no worse than the last.

However there will always be people unhappy with however it sounds, sort of an impossible task getting it right for everyone.

Good work, but still to 'Synthetic' for my liking.

It's like Piano sounds being played on a keyboard. Sounds good, but a real piano sounds like a real piano and a keyboard doesn't.

I didn't get a PM! :weeping:

Realised I can't make it Sunday now anyway, off to see some stand up comedy I think. Bad timing, as last time it was the cinema.
