I don't know the cause, but it looks as if it might be related to code pages and language settings.
Do you rename the files in any other way than through the LFS menu? For example, have you copied and renamed them in Windows file manager?
How do they look in the data\misc folder?
Do you sometimes change language settings on your computer?
What is the "language for non-Unicode programs" on your computer?

The failed upload attempts don't all add up, they are overwritten by the next attempt, so hopefully you don't need another slot. I can't add an extra slot as we don't have a system to do that and I can't get into coding an exception.
About the Cloudflare upload timeout, I guess you have tried the option to not include the png files, to reduce the size of the upload? I can't do anything about that at this time because for me it would be a big project to make a new upload system, and Victor isn't willing to do it.

Have you checked your email?
Just leave us in peace, we are working very hard and will update when there is something interesting to say.
In the meantime you can read the recent progress report. https://www.lfs.net/forum/thread/110003

I guess that must have been a temporary glitch?
We haven't had any tech support emails and I've just tested and it seems OK, and yours seems to be running at the moment.
Do let me know if you get another problem.

I don't think it's a bug, those higher numbers represent the output mesh.
Triangles should be relatively simple, I guess some of the ones you selected are mirrored, so the output number is more than you have selected.
Points are a bit more complicated and there will be multiple points where smoothing groups or mappings meet.
For instance a simple cube with one mapping would have 4 points per side, so there would be 24 points even through they are built on only 8 editor points. 3 points at each corner, which you can see if you turn on normals (nrm). Each output, game ready vertex can only belong to one mapping or have one normal.

Thanks for the report. It was a bug in the old code, that fortunately had no other side effects.
This was not the mod team, I did this alone after we received a technical support email.
I shouldn't have included the threat of a ban, that final sentence was not needed and obviously annoyed you.
I wish we didn't constantly receive support emails about offensive political or religious logos and slogans, bad behaviour, racism, etc. We're just trying to make a nice game for people to get together and have fun.

Thank you for the report, I've fixed that now. I caused the bug when I reused the field for signup notification thread in a recent update.
Yes, the AI path doesn't store the mod's version number. It's only really about vehicle width, a wider one is likely to invalidate the path.
Great bug finding again! Thanks for working out the reason. The car is probably a fraction wider in the later version, and at some point in the generated path the car goes right up to the driveable limit.
What we actually said:
When dealing with complaints from users we would prefer not to get involved in political judgments, but instead LFS should be free from this stuff, so we asked you to remove the logo. Not such a big deal really.

Thanks, fixed that now.
I've just done that now.
Up to 3 in list will remain in a single column.
4 or more will split into two columns with the left column containing the first half of the list.

Hi, the server has been restarted and set up for the new IP, and appears to be working correctly now.
I closed the hosts down at 13:00 UTC but they still haven't made the change by 21:00 UTC.
Just now the server seems to have gone offline so it looks like they are making the change, later than expected.
Anyway, it's too late for me to work on this but I will do the updates and restart in the morning if the server is up and running as expected.

Australian Hosts Downtime 5th/6th February
Hello Australian hosters,
We received notification that our provider is moving our instances to a different Hypervisor on 5th February, to improve the service. That will mean some downtime.
This should be taking place at some point between 13:00 UTC and 20:00 UTC on 5th February, so that means late in the night in Australia, 5th to 6th February. So I hope that means minimal disruption.
I'd prefer our instance not to be shut down while your hosts are running, so I plan to close them by 13:00 UTC and stop the hosting system on the server. I'll check in occasionally and when I see the server has been restarted, I'll restart the hosting system and restart any hosts that I closed down. That it hopefully before 20:00 UTC otherwise I'll be looking in the morning on 6th February.
If that is OK with you, you can just leave the hosts running and they will be offline for some time as described above. If you prefer to avoid the downtime then you can move your host temporarily (to Hong Kong or USA, I guess).

OK, I think it's fixed now, you can use Korean and other non-Latin characters without starting with Latin or a colour code.
Thanks for this bug report.
I've done some experimentation and while I don't yet know the answer (it's in Victor's web code and I will keep looking) but I found a workaround.
I found that you don't even have to start with a Latin character. You can start simply with a colour code and then it will work.
For example:
^1한글
This will start correctly, in red colour.
You can use colours:
^0:black
^1:red
^2:green
^3:yellow
^4:blue
^5:magenta
^6:cyan
^7:white

Yes, I did that intentionally as it was pointless seeing the semi-inactive ones up at the top.
It is still possible to enforce an order if required, but now when they have no enforced priority, they will be sorted by latest post date.
The idea is to help make it easier to see where the action is taking place, where signups are happening etc.

A quick bit of Sunday work, I've added the ability for admins to edit anyone's entry.
You can see the "edit" button on the left, below "remove" in the signup administration page.

Finally I have included withdrawals on the notification thread.
I don't plan to work on this any more today but will do so if you have any problems.

One more small change as I noticed the Race Green rally signup has included "Country" as a field.
I've now made "Include user's country in CSV export" an option. As you wanted that, you should switch on that option (in Edit season, just above the signup thread option).

I thought of this in the night and had to add this feature to try to solve the remaining problem with not using forum signups.
In "Edit season" you can now add an optional sign-up thread.
So in your case you would add https://www.lfs.net/forum/thread/110364 (or just the thread id 110364) and then you will see a notification of new signups.
I could add a similar notification for withdrawn/deleted signups which would obviously be easy to add now that the system is in place.

Reason : removed example notification thread
I used to smoke roll-ups but restarted each time I tried to stop.
My fitness had declined due to a mainly sedentary lifestyle (and I guess smoking didn't help either).
Eventually when I took up running and cycling to get outside and become fit again, I wanted to be faster and it was embarrassing to smoke in the car park at mountain bike events (hiding behind my car) so then I finally stopped at the end of a packet. It is possible to just stop, best to plan it ahead, reduce the amount a bit and then stop on a target day. But you have to understand that you will never smoke again, not a single puff. If you can't honestly make that commitment then I guess there's no point even trying.
Physically for me it was a feeling like being thirsty for a couple of days, then for the following year or so I could think of a cigarette at any time when I would have had one in the past. But that connection gradually disappears as you do those things and don't smoke.
Now, approaching 13 years later it is very rare for me to have a thought of a cigarette and it's very easily dismissed, just seems a bit odd that it still pops into my head on rare occasions.
