Sorry, but I haven't come around to updating this article yet (and have, quite honestly, forgotten it completeley recently ). I don't think that I will update it soon, but if you look for a solid PHP5 insim-platform, check PHPInSim in the programmers section.

Quote from Becky Rose :

Easy fixed, just imagine him naked, it's what I did...

Bad, BAD image in my head now...

PS: Wow, Victor has changed a lot since the last photo I saw!

Quote from Scawen :

Hehe, it's MASSIVE compared with an XFG!

As a rough comparison, compare a Citroen AX GT with a Golf GTI.

German small cars are not at all small. Have you stood beside a "Mini" ?

Did you ever bother to take a look at, lets say, a current Mercedes Benz C-Class limousine? Those are BIG German cars.

German "small" cars have a great advantage, however: Let's compare the Scirocco to the new Fiat 500. The Scirocco might be a bit larger than the 500, but the other difference between those 2 "small" cars is that a person that is taller than, say, 6 feet can still comfortably sit in the German "small" car

Also, come on... most of these "very-small" cars can't be classified as "cars" really... It's more likely they are lunchboxes on wheels!

Quote from Bob Smith :

It's not difficult to look up the model on the internet and match the engine. You should always have researched before opening your mouth, IMO.

w00t! There's still someone around with that "perfect world" fantasy?

Quote from Victor :

I'll be at GC on thursday. Wear your LFS shirts if you have'm for identification

Oh how I'd love to go. But alas, I won't have the time, for school reasons. Can you come to GamesCom in Cologne in 2009?

Quote from CasseBent :

Chirocoocoo

I LOL'd at this one

For anyone asking for screens: Rest assured that this car looks as great in LFS as it does in real life (which is, quite frankly, absolutely freaking great). Me won't say no more :P

this sounds like some sort of homework. is it a piece of homework?

Quote from ACCAkut :

Any progress in LFS is progress, but we'll see what happens.

There is a second article from the ESL, and that one doesn't name LFS at all

That is because the article was published before the information about the Scirocco in LFS was declassified (which was just yesterday, actually).

EDIT: @ Bob Smith, in my opinion, if it's the FXO's new dress, then this new dress at least looks frikkin good

Quote from danowat :

I just brought new HDD video cam, so I can bring that and video the whole event if required.

w00t! we haz a video!

definitely video the event! you karters want that we homestayers get jealous, don't you?

sad news to hear, really. They were always benchmark for all the others, the team to beat... and above all, a bunch of nice guys. Now they're gone. A pity

Quote from thisnameistaken :

We had considered going camping in Bavaria actually but it all looked a bit too oom-pah and lederhosen, and that put my girlfriend off.

Lemme tell you something, not all of Germany is like Bavaria (Bavaria is not even considered part of Germany in most jokes ). May I suggest Cologne as an alternative? It's a great city, and even if it's only because I live there

Quote from Sponge :

Well.. just updated to Z and this happend.. is it me or a bug? (this happend with all cars btw)

I think a big, solid WTF??? is well in place here.

Quote from sgt.flippy :

It's pure logic anyway, there shouldn't even be a sticky about it. Anyone with a bit of intelligence should know never to give out their details.

This just isn't how human societies work, I'm afraid. We have the Stella Awards, after all...

Quote from diablo21 :

Thought i'd add a pic

WANT.

definitely +1, good idea.

There are also already nice components on the market that make it easier to create an OpenID service. My favourite is Zend_OpenId. It has both a provider and a consumer class.

Quote from DarinSRT :

I didn't have probs with the shifters.. I just drive like that.. They felt ok, but someone already posted at RSC that they break very easily.

The paddles break very easily indeed because the little "nipples" that push the button inside the wheel in the end are plastic by default, but because this is a problem known to Thrustmaster, they send you a package and you can exchange those things without any problems within 15 minutes. All you need is a screwdriver.

Quote from DarinSRT :

IMO.. I would take this 270 degree RGT over the Porsche wheel. We have one too and will do a review.. You can compare the overall rating.. The Porsche pedals are pure JUNK ! Anyone remember the Thrustmaster springs from the T1 and T2s way back when.. They're back in the Fanatic Porsche pedals..

The pedals on the RGT are much better than the DFP or the Driving Force Pro GT.. If they didn't look natural, maybe cause I wear a size 12 shoe. ?? THe config may not look good, but they felt fine. The brake is more progressive than the clutch or gas.. but not by a huge amount..

I agree, the pedals of the Thrustmaster RGT are really high-quality and feel very accurate.

Quote from DarinSRT :

I agree with you guys though.. I need more than 270.. If I was on a budget though.. I think I may go with the RGT.. If it had at least 500 of rotation and an 11" wheel.. It would rock..

Signed. However, I am happy with 270 degrees, completely enough for me


PS: Someone asked if the shifter unit is removable: It is not. The sequential shifter and the wheel are one part.

Quote from Qvarnis :

Do you accept my driving style to S2?

Sorry, I`m just excited about getting the license after 3 years of waiting.

And for those who are mildly blind, unable to read small texts or just isn`t capable of understanding various things, I`m the guy on the FMB called [D-Styles]Hanska

welcome to S2!

Quote from Scawen :

I prefer it smaller neater and antialiased like it is now than how it was before, but there is a question of whether to use a plain (antialiased) circle (very easy to do that) or a slightly more traffic light looking thing like it has now, or maybe a cleaner version of what it has now. Interested to hear opinions on that...

To me, it looks great already. Opinion: I think it would look much cleaner if you could use a more modern traffic light image there, an image of a traffic light with LED lights. If you wish, I can go out and take photos of those.

Best regards

Quote from Dajmin :

Clearly they interpret the initials as Baby = Man + Woman

you just made me laugh so freakin hard...

Now to you, Scawen... damn you. You are always late on patches, but you also always have the damn best excuses one can imagine. Best of luck to you two with your new child .

Live for Speed is featured in the most current issue of the German GameStar magazine. It is featured in there among other games in the first article about the current GameStar League season.

Picture of the article can be found here: http://static.4players.de/lfs- ... nts/files/img.php_240.jpg (Picture made by Edvin "TNH" Zec of #low-racing)

Translation (of the relevant parts):
The Fanatec Live for Speed premier league found its 30 elite drivers. In a dramatic qualification they were able to secure their place in the highest class of the GameStar League. In the first of 2 qualification groups, GT-A, The two LFS-drivers Hendrik von Eye and Johannes Scheuerle grimly fought for the first place - in the end, von Eye was able to claim it for him. In the second group, GT-B, things happened to be nothing less serious: With Nils Naujoks, one of the best LfS drivers in the world was on first place here. The level of skill in the qualification was generally very high: the driver on 16th place only missed qualification by a narrow 20 points.

[[ Stuff about money here; this season of GSL issues more than 30k € worth of cash- and non-cash-prizes; every driver who participates gets money for every race he/she participated in ]]

Game-TV broadcasts the thrilling matches live! The precise broadcast plan is accessible on the internet at www.game-tv.com. We wish the best of luck to all participants - and we hope our spectators will have a lot of fun.

- Does AF work in LFS? (meaning, texture filtering 2x, 4x, 8x is different (better) than none or 1x) YES
- What graphics card? XFX GeForce 8600 XXX (GeForce 8600GT Chipset)
- What driver version? Driver Date: 09.01.2008; Driver Version: 7.15.11.6932 <-- last 4 numbers = Nvidia Driver base version

'Nother question that might be worth considering: do you guys use Vista?

Microsoft recently brought out a patch that was meant to enable the users to install SP1, but cancelled the distribution of it since they had to admit it caused a lot more problems than it solved.

So, even though its unlikely, if you all have Vista and all have the Update 937287 installed, try to remove it to see if that cures the problems.
