Hi!
A small and perhaps dumb question...
I have used the function ch (chart) and recived this (and more).
What character is used after the name, I tried to search for ' ' but strpos() miss. I think it should be something like "\\n" but that don't work either. I hope there is something else than ' ' or how do you solve names with a space 'Nisse Hult"?

135260 517 biggie
135370 513 Flotch
135590 517 RMachucaA

...

Would be glad for a answer
/Tooby the noob

Not true!
You can add your skins in folder LFS\data\skins but the automatic download wont work in the demo. Your compititors wont see your skin - you have to send your skins thru mail or msn...

Quote from Michael Miskella :

nerf the restart button
force it so you can only restart after so many laps are complete. good to have a race shaken up a bit and people learning to improvise on situations, would get most people taking t1 a bit more carefully seeing as there would be no quick fix. being clean ahead after a t1 crash or being right in the middle i've never went for a restart, people need to learn how to accept racing incidents.

best way ive seen a server setup was with reversed grid positions, that way the people that know what they are doing are behind and alot less likely to plow into everyone and gives a bit more adventure for the faster drivers. dont recall one restart on that server, shame ive only seen one server use it.

Good!
I think people have to learn to live with the decisions they make...You mess up at T1 -> try to get to pit or leave the race. The ones left in the race:
1....race on and no possibility to a restart
2. ...or they leave the race (no one left in the race) and make it possible for a restart.

Quote from D34N0 :

This is a link to the function file_get_contents http://uk2.php.net/manual/en/function.file-get-contents.php

It is only available in PHP 4 >= 4.3.0, PHP 5 as stated in the above link.

Heres a link to the PHP Quick Manual Reference http://www.php.net/quickref.php

Also if learning PHP I found the tutorials on this site very helpful http://www.tizag.com they gave me a good understanding and it's just the tip of the iceberg

Thanx! I thought I was a total looser. I've started to look at the tutorials and uppdated my php install. Se if that makes any difference

I have just started to try to learn PHP. Perhaps a big start but I tried to recive some data from lfsworld and the result goes like this

"Fatal error: Call to undefined function: file_get_contents() in c:\phpdev\www\lfsdata.php on line 16"

I got phpdev423 installed. Is the problem that the function file_get_contents() don't exist or...I would be glad if someone could point me in the right direction.

Thanx

Hi!
I don't inderstand your question, but perhaps it's http://www.lfsworld.net/ you want (folder: Racers and host online).

/Tooby

Thanx! I loose then but not with much

Thanx!
Been reading too...And my basic understanding is that weight should not interfere much with top speed but I got thoughts from a friend of mine So now it's time to find some answers.

i read in the Miata files and found this:
"The rolling resistance is approximately proportional to the velocity:

This approximation is probably the weakest one in the model."

I have to look alittle more

Hi!
You write "/mustpit yes" in the text file for the dedi server or inside LFS and use patch P2.

Quote from marsden1002 :

just check various of car sites cant you??

Fast-autos.net

I am not intrested in top speed of different car makes/models, more about the formulas used to calculate resistance. I have used google

Hi!
Anyone knows a site where I can read about physics concerning cars. I would like to read more about roll/air resistance and how much or if weight has anything to do with top speed.

Edit: spelling

Why dev crew dosen't release anythin new since Aug. 7th? No change of sounds (start engine) or other minor updates...

Why don't you buy so that the devs can get paid for what they do?

I found some templates for cars at RSC / LFS. Would it be possible to copy them to this thread. I feel I can't do it because I am not the author/owner.

Hi!
There is alot fast guys how use keybords for driving. But you will need alot of practise (even with a wheel). Start with the slower cars when you go online and practise the fast ones offlline.

Quote from J.P (GB) :

Got it sorted!

thanks guys....thanks alot! apreeciated!

Quote from Pabs(Sco) :

Did you extract the files over the demo or seperate directory?

Also have you "unlocked" you full version?

If not look at the pictures

Not to forget GPL...

I do like the "history" behind the cars in rfactor and the demo of rfactor worked like charm compared to GTR/GTL, so rfactor will be on the computer later on (I think). It will be fun to se what the different modders will come up with.

I changed from GPL to LFS because the online experience is so fun/good and now when we get more cars and track combinations then I can "master" I like it even more. There is alot of nice people to met on the servers, easy to connect and then we have the team behind it all .

But it's good that there is several sims, so people can find the "game" of there liking

Regards
Tooby

Edit: hmm I cant read..."-Post your car" and what do I do illepall
This is my or... or will be when finished
