I've set it like that and both my and the replay from the link show data screen. But I'm not using the patch, I use official H version.

Try downloading the replay from the link and see from there if it's still happening, maybe?

It is rather you should download replay and check it with test patch (in the end the thread is all about test patch, isn't it?)

With version H it is okay (which ofcourse I will be using while the bug isn't fixed).

I just watched the replay of the race and it doesn't show your data disapearing. Did you save your replay, that maybe shows what happened?

I've explained it already. It happened right from the beginning and whenever Litmanen was close to me in front or at some side.

You need to have "Draw driver / wheel" option set to "driver OFF wheel OFF"

Quote from Scawen :

Which bug are you talking about? It looks as if you are replying to Flame's post, but I can't see how the bug he found could cost you a league race.

Sorry to hear that a bug cost you a league race! Better make sure I know what it was!

Yes, I was confused by dissapearing dashboard and crashed the leader and myself. (he still won it but I spectated)

I just got this nasty bug aswell. It happened on normal racing server and costed me a league race in the end.

Seems to me this happens whenever you have any other car in your view.

UPD and you have to be close to another car to get the bug

I can press that graph overlay buttons when I drive with mouse, while mouse pointer is hidden. So I can accidentally close it while driving with mouse

Is it bug or feature?

Just did a rough testing with paused MP replay (32 cars grid viewing from the cockpit of the last car).

FPS increased like by 1.5! (90 instead of 60). Epic win here

The graph works well. I get something in the Wait field only sometimes (and I can't reproduce this), or when VSync is enabled. What does it show exactly? Waiting for GPU?

This is really useful for client-side insim apps, yet host control apps will benefit with this aswell IMO.

One particular purpose is to be able to distinguish different open config tracks from client-side insim apps.

There is a little enhancement you can do. When I have UI center shift + UI scaling I get somewhat funny result with LFSLazy interface. (pic 1)

In the main LFS screen it causes buttons highlight to work wrong, while clicking is alright (it clicks the button under cursor, not the highlighted one). (pic 2)

And when I tune the buttons I get significant offset in the lower part of the screen. (pic 3)

There are more and more open config usage in events these days, so I am here again with couple more ideas on how to identify the tracks.

First is intercepting insim button packages. You can get track name from airio powered servers by passing !tr message packet and then intercepting the response (which is either buttons window with track name or just message in the chat).

Another way which doesnt require airio or any tracker on server, is using md5sum or any similar hashing algorithm on the layout. You can get the layout info by setting ISF_AXM_LOAD in the IS_ISI packet. Then you collect whole layout into some buffer and then calculate hash sum of the resulting buffer. That way you will get unique ID for every possible track.

And lastly, it would be nice to simply be able to enter track name manually to LFSLazy until we come up with something proper here.

Yes, I totally agree that non-cycling way would be more flexible.

EDIT: and there is even way tomake it compatible to the older version. We can have Home and End buttons for it for example, that do not cycle through, while keeping arrows working as it was before.

Quote from Gutholz :

-allows binding "turn repair on/off" keybinds to wheel

I didn't get this bit. You can make toggling keybind by some script like this:

and it will be cycled.

BUT, if you make it non-cycling, you can make even better 1-button scripts like this http://en.lfsmanual.net/wiki/Script_Guide#.22F9_.3E_F10_.3E_F11_.3E_F12_.3E_Off.22_Toggle with indication (like adding "/echo repair off" and "/echo repair on" to approporiate script)

So, this one is must have

Seeing that H* patches are somewhat focused on performance issues, I got a question. Are there any plans on deploying 64bit version?

It might gain in some bits due to bigger processor register space and some wider compiler optimization possibilities.

New update to support 0.6H3

New button system is disabled, but here is one more screenshot where I draw borders around buttons as well.

Are you gonna do them rounded and with configurable transparency?
Also text shadow is must have here, because then you don't need those button backgrounds opaque too much.

Also, apparently it looks like you're able to draw transparent stuff O_o. Then why don't you make car radar opacity configurable? I had to make it really small, otherwise I can't read some important stuff on F12 menu (like amount of fuel to put on pitstop). And by the way, you can make yet another option to reduce radar opacity while in F12 mode.

I do not see any parameter going in that way ... but I am not expert.
The board is an amd radeon 7950.

On that note, I have to say that I couldn't figure out how to set my AMD GPU to full-power mode. Using standard AMD driver control panel or windows config whatever I do it drops to 300 MHz occasionally (having low gpu load and pretty low temperature like 50 celsius), so those FPS drops are hard to test for me.

I heard of people forcing the card to go on full power by using some overclocking software, but I never had a go with it.

When I open this link (page 37 of XR skins thread) https://www.lfs.net/forum/thread/5643-XR-Skins-%28All%29/page/37 I get empty page. If I skip 37 and go to 38 it works fine.

One more strange bug found. When I connect to host (with no cars on track) sky isn't shown initially. To reproduce this I need non-empty host, so that its not in the lobby screen.

To get sky working I need to join with a car.

You have to have some specific tweak, otherwise you will end up having everyone lagging too much.

Afaik, there is no way to check and limit actual tweek parameters server guests use. Technically that would require changing the values that LFS cheat protection works with. The way tweak works now is that it just disables cheat protection what so ever.

There was a "Tweak controller" initiative to achieve tweaks synchronisation between server guests, but afaik it wasn't released.

Button rate 10.00 and steer center 0.6-0.8 for me, no problem on any car in sprint racing or hotlapping.

Yes, the only car I ever used less than 10.0 control rate was FO8. 0.8 steer center reduction afaik is default value, which always worked fine for me.

Well, you can also remove spaces before punctuation marks ("Current version: 41", "More..."), because normally you don't have spaces in front of punctuation marks.

Version 40 sometimes makes my lfs screen black if I go full screen and then back to window. And I can't seem to fix it. Where can I find version 39?

UPD: this happens after if I am with car on track.

Quote from Eclipsed :

Is there any chance to get the Westhill logo visible around the track? The one found in WSTinfo.dds is way too small to use for any graphical purposes,couldn't find any other dds file (beside bin,which is also too small) with this logo.

Its was easy to recreate

Rony, why don't you put awesome curbs like this?

Hope I can do it aswell, combo looks funny
