Quote from Victor :

if you change something on a host, it should update on lfsworld too. Doesn't matter if someone is on the host or not.

Well.. in this case there seems to be a problem in my script.. For some servers I get 0 laps (but I know that 10 laps have been set) and for some others I get the correct value :/ Ok, so I should have a look at this.

By the way: is it possible to make pubstat donations via PayPal?

Is it possible that the Laps byte will only be a non-zero value if the server has currently a race running on it?
I have set my server to 10 laps but there's nobody online. And LFSW gives me 0 as value for laps. Is this correct that this value will only change when there's someone driving on the server?

Some news from my side:

I'm currently developing a complete new server script that is LFS World based especially for those users, who don't have HTTP or FTP access to their LFS server.
The script is currently in alpha state and should enter beta testing within this week. There's still a lot to do but it already works very stable (tested with a lot of hosts today).
I'll keep you informed about the process

I can take the German part of the translation

Now i know, why i don't like french people :P The are even too bigheaded to talk english in an english-speaking, international forum....

Very nice! Thanks a lot!

Ok, this stupid bug is now fixed. I'm verry sorry about this.

You can download it right now

Quote from the_angry_angel :

Something I've always hated, but today more than usual; reading other people's code. Unless both myself and the other programmers / coders are in a "metal-sync", I just tend to think "wtf, I wouldnt do it like that" and not get past it. Either that or I need a few days to get into the api and mindset of the coders.

know this problem, too but since working in a large software company, where you get some bugs assigned of which you didn't even knew the program itself you learn this very fast

Quote from ajp71 :

Vykos what are you talking about I really don't understand why you have to drag nK in here?

Of course I don't know anymore than anybody else speculating about the patch, but it seems like LFS is probably going to be used by BMW Sauber in a pitstop challenge. So what I was saying is that if BMW Sauber have a pitstop challenge it is unlikely they'll use a sim with no little pit people?

Who talked about a pitstop challenge? Its just a racing challenge. So no signs about pitstops.

Yes, could be. BUT: why is lfs in this intel-airport spot? Why is this BMW Sauber F1 car the "news" for yesterday?

It all fits together..

Quote from sinbad :

And this would be worthwhile for the LFS devs, why?

If you make a contest, you need a free platform, where everyone can participate.

Think about the Ocrana Racing challenge together with Fujitsu-Siemens

Quote from MadCatX :

of course, looks like its made in 3D studio or something like that. Aand here comes the question... if LFS will really contain BMW F1 car, why to make a video in external program, when you can use animation from a game??? You are getting crazy guys (plz dont take it like an offence)

Because the devs don't want to make it too easy?

Quote from MadCatX :

I hope that video on that wierd sïte isnt form LFS. That car moves SOOOO UNREALISTIC there(especially in the first drift).

BTW, how did you get that, VorTeX?

i think this is only a small animation to make the people get interested

well, someone from the german forum found this page

Quote from Madman_CZ :

interesting thoughts but its all just more speculation my friend!

of course.. but the first time since this speculations about the patch started, i really believe in something and really think that some speculation is true. and thats that one i mentioned

ok, we'll all see, but i hope i was wrong with the date :P

Intel seems to be starting some "racing challenge" with an online game where you can win a BMW M6, starting at 22nd of april..

and when we now implicate all those new "pictures" (wtf?? pic), the intel spot and the sentence of the guru "but who needs a minute in blackwood"...
i think it's clear that the mentioned online game will be LFS and will include the BMW Sauber F1 car with the target to hit the 1 minute limit of blackwood.

and i also think that this car will be a demo car, so that everybody can participate to this challenge.

Guys, have a look at this: http://213.202.247.220/index.php?sid=&p=game

so i think it's clear: patch release will be the 22nd (so f.....ing long)

Quote from Honey :

i tried to see how many heart attacks it would have caused a news like that

sice only 2 people replied, must be all others had an heart attack

no, it's just, that nobody will response to something like this, since this was one of the most sentences you could read in every lfs forum

thanks i'm just sitting at the front of my pc all the last hours, because i cannot get to sleep...

i need this patch to start thinking about something else.
