Hi, have a look at this thread: http://www.lfsforum.net/showthread.php?t=76204 it might be a bit useful for you...

Basically, you or your friend (who ever is hosting the game) need to open their ports (port forwarding) in thier router.

A quick guide on what you should do can be found on the LFS Manual: http://en.lfsmanual.net/wiki/H ... rwarding_.2F_Home_Routers

What you should do is the same, but the process varies from one router to another.

First find out the correct make and model of your router and then go to http://portforward.com/ and find what steps that you should take...

(Find your router make/model, click skip the advert (top right of screen), from the list of software select "Live for Speed server" and then you'll see the exact steps that you need to take).

I still remember my first time; it took ages Have fun!

Edit: No need to buy a server (unless your planning on letting a lot of people connect). Simply set up port forwarding and you'll be fine if you've got a good connection.

Hi. What's the ping to the servers? You can see the values on the hosts list screen.

Please post your results for tests at speedtest.net and pingtest.net. When you're selecting a host on those two sites, select a UK host (The AirAttack Servers are hosted in the UK as far as I know).

You may have a 8 Mbps connection, but the connection through to UK might not be optimum...

Try connecting to various servers; not just AirAttack. Does the same happen when you connect to the cargame.nl S1 server (which I believe is hosted in Netherlands/Germany)?

Go through the first post: http://www.lfsforum.net/showthread.php?t=29454

If none of those work - have a look through the whole thread - other might have had the same problem and solved it already.

Who's got the time to find that out?

Hi,

The admin command (or found the dedicated server's config file)

/maxguests=2 :max number of guests that can join host

Shouldn't that do the trick?

Also use

/pass=Pass :if required - password

For the password protection.

I hope this is what you were looking for.

PS: This info is taken from the LFS Manual (http://en.lfsmanual.net/wiki/Hosting).

You're thinking of Dygear.

Okay okay, just thought it might spice things up.

Search for the keywords "only for multiplayer hosts" and set "show results as posts". Go through the results - this too has come up number of times in this forum; you should be able to find a solution easily.

Repeat the process for the next error that'll inevitably come up...

Please use the "search this thread" feature and search for "TCP ERROR" and have a look at the results: I'm sure EQ Worry has described what this means what you should do to avoid it (or to fix it).

Hi.

Turn the wheel lock to lock to calibrate it in-game (turn it fully to the left and then fully to the right).

If that don't work make sure that you have the latest drivers from Logitech, that your wheel is properly calibrated in windows and in LFS...

Yup.

How long have you been away from LFS (or is this not what you're asking... :duck?

Quote from cris12821 :Plus in my version I have never ONCE saw ANYONE in multiplayer or Hot lapping.

... and what version might that be?!

You'd always find a few hundred drivers online at any given time (peaking at 1000+ at European evenings). Have look at www.lfs.net and the number of "racers online". You can find more info about the history of the number of drivers online using LFSWorld.

Hotlapping is purely single player. You need to set a hot lap and upload it to LFSWorld - so naturally you won't see anyone in that mode.

Quote from Mario Dallacurva :to give to her the GAMEpassword so she can enter with license s2
while I am not giving the WEBpassword.

Whilst this is a noble action - the LFS user agreement (which you agree to before buying a license) state:
Quote :You must not give your username, WEB or GAME password to other LFS users.

http://www.lfs.net/?page=agreement

And its likely that LFSTech monitors the I.P. address at each unlock. If the account that you're going to give a way for a month (10 months, 10 users - 10 unlocks) - the account might be flagged for misuse and banned globally (Or it would be easy for 1 person to buy a S2 account and give the GAMEpassword to his friends so they can all play). I don't know if this is being done for sure - but I suspect something of the sort does happen to prevent people abusing licenses.

It would be best if you clear it up with Victor before giving out the GAMEpassword for any users.

Good luck with the races!

You could post the .cfg file here and someone can have a look if something is defined incorrectly.

Make sure you edit out the passwords before you post it here.

Just wondering if parameter 6 is this:
/mode=demo :demo / s1 / s2

Sounds like you're a bit late.
