Thanks for the progress report.

I have no bad feelings about the delay in the development of new physics. Everyone, who has been involved in doing such things, would agree, that these things happen from time to time. But I still don't get, why you don't release the new track, why you don't improve those cockpits, which still look a bit outdated. In my opinion most people are a bit pissed because of the lack of new content, not because of the delay of the new physics.

Hi,

I don't know, if this cheat is a new one. I just would like to inform Scawen about it.

Date: 26.4.08
Kombo: GTI/GT on BL1
Suspected cheater: The Great Goatsby (Goatse)

Quote from [GR]Evolution :

In my opinion this is one of the best improvements. Think it logically, can a human head turn 90 degs and see 180 degs? The movement now along with the camera is much closer to reality.

... of course, you're right. Now it is more realistic.

1st of all let me thank you for the patch!

It would be great if there were options like:

[ ] side view in two steps: 45° -> 90°
[ ] side view in two steps: 90° -> rear

I think that watchers are not connected directly to the stream creator but to a relay server. So it doesn't matter, if there is one watcher or there are 100 watchers. It would be the same for the stream creator.

Nice! Thanks a lot!

...hehe, really nice! Thx!

If your FFB strength ist to strong, even if you have set it down to zero, just press Shift-C for reinitializing input devices. This works for me.

Quote from joen :

Game developers and game users working this closely together to continuously improve the game, an extremely rare phenomenon in games development. This is one of the thing that makes LFS so special So great thanks to the devs and the community are in order. Have a cookie all

I totally agree!

Patch W48 seems to work fine. Performance has increased in shift-u mode.

I just came here to open a new thread addressing this. Good news, I am not the only one whishing this for the next patch!

Hi Scawen,

thx for your reply.

I agree, it isn't a matter of framerates. But it can change the "look and feel" on some tracks. Maybe you could add a simpler option, such as "sky on|off" to let us choose between the former ellipsoid option and disabled sky?

Hi,

where is the option gone to switch sky on/off with? It used to be in options/misc.

... there was a feature in "Grand Prix Legends", so you was only allowed to reset, if nobody's near you on track / was coming to the reset-position of your car.

... or you may install LFS Display, which is to be found hier.

Quote from Bawbag :

Don't make the mistake I made though, I banned a guy called "Go sideways" I thought it was the guy using the hack I saw yesterday whos user was "Sir sideways". Obviously unbanned now though.

I thought, the lfs name of this cheater was "Sir_Sideways"?

Quote from 510N3D :

If i understand you with this comment you mean theres no need to publish this stuff here.

Then you got me wrong. I just wanted to say that we not only have to say "let's lynch them" but we have to _do_ something. For we can't lynch anybody, we should ban them from our servers.

Quote from GP4Flo :

An easy solution would be to remove the S2 license of every user who cheats. Thanks to the replays it should be easy to have an evidence.

We do have such a paragraph in the License Agreement, so why not use it?

...nice. +1 for that!

Quote from 510N3D :

Disagreed, shuting up about this topic (cheats) is what we should not do in any case.

... did I say so? No! Why do you think I take part of this discussion? Right, because these cheaters destroy our game. The only thing I intended to point out was, that we should do what we can to clean our servers form those cheaters. That's all.

... there's really no need to lynch anybody. Just ban proofed cheaters from your servers and the number of their "playgrounds" will decrease.

Hi,

I have searched the forum for some detailed information about the charakter codes - unfortunately in vain. I know that there are color codes ^0 -> ^9, but are there other codes which could be interesting for insim/outgauge tools?

Hi,

in a way it is not that bad that these cheats appeared. If Neo hasn't done this cheating tool, it would have been created by another person and probably would habe been used in a more secret way. Are you really sure that there haven't been such tools out there? Just 3-5 km/h more top speed and noone would have had a suspect. We all thought that there weren't any cheats out there, now we are proofed wrong.

Of course it would have been much better to inform the devs without letting it spread out. This was really a big mistake by Neo and the other Portuguese. Now it is out and the worst thing about this is that every fast driver is assumed to be a cheater.

Of course we all want Scawen to work on other things like weather, better A.I., LX8 But on a long-term basis for Scawen it is not wasted time to make LFS safer.

And hey, why don't we create a cheater list, so all teams could keep their servers clean by banning those cheaters?

I think this request just deals with fullscreen mode, where "height" and "width" are really the display resolution unless you set them both to "0". Then it puts LFS in windowed mode, but doesn't give you control over window bounds or placement.

... yup, that's right. This is the way I change position and size of LFS window:


Left, Top, Width and Height stand for the size and position of LFS window.
