I think what he means is:
Usually it is not possible to even add AI-drivers on open config, but appearently he somehow circumvented that block/check with the lessons-editor.

The map is clearly showing a closed circuit

Quote from AHMETFURKANCAKIR43 :

Hi everyone,

I encountered an error.

"Invalid texture XF_plastic1 - Not square"
"Can't open : XF_plastic1"

Help me please.

Interior color is white :/

I'm gonna translate that error message for you.

You have an invalid texture, that is called XF_plastic1. It is invalid for some reason, and that reason is the texture is not square.

Is it that hard to understand?
You have downloaded a texture that is done for an older version where square textures were not mandatory. You can simply resize the texture so it is square, or you can look for another pack that complies the requirements to work.

Shouldn't we receive a notice that a maintenance is scheduled?

There is a notice, that is not even on the main page of lfs.net, as you have to enter the news section to see it. Most people won't look at that page unless they are new or a new patch has come out, etc.

But of course, when I (a managers of the biggest LFS community in Spain) received the first questions about the downtime LFS.net was already down, so I had no idea what was happening.

Twitter, Google+... nothing. As always Scavier forget this thing exists (as stated by Victor on a previous maintenance or failure).

Email notification? Nope, that would be too much.

That sounds really good, Whiskey.

Is this the page where all the upcoming races can be seen?

Yup. There you can see the upcoming races or the full schedule of all the leagues planned or completed in the past.

Quote from cargame.nl :

Cesav is extremely big.. In the high days they even did three servers but yeah, there is not much interexchange of drivers between leagues.

It's nice to be apreciated outside our country We have weekly races with 50+ drivers, not as big as the 90+ of the old days, but we are not a small bunch of people there hehe

I agree on the lack of foreign people in leagues. Our website/forum/rules is translated into English (and French, though it'd need an update), but we weren't able to bring as many non-Spanish speakers as we intended.

Everyone is welcome to join us if they want: www.cesav.es

VW, doesn't want to ruin their chick car's image and reputation having a poor performance in-game sliding everywhere like ice skating.

Wrong!

VW was perfectly fine with current physics to display its car in 2008 Gamescon. It was Scawen's decision to no release it to S1 users due to the flaws they discovered after the deal with Rockingham track.

Mornin' peeps,

Is this library compatible with visual basic? I prefer not to use C# as I am quite familiar with VB.

Thanks in advance!

It is .Net, so yes, you can use whatever language you like most.

Let's remember here that any increase in any texture size has the ability to affect performance, especially on ancient rigs.

That's why everyone has a settings menu in-game to adapt to its own machine

Pointless because we are still catering to Windows XP.

Oh, better call Scawen, maybe he should remove Oculus Rift Support so you can keep whinning about nonsense...

Done. I attach the psd file so anyone can tinker with the design.

I was bored and did a "quick" edit. I know is the opposite of your idea, but I made it just in case you'd like to see a more realistic look.

Player's names above cars have AA enabled, but when a driver loses connection its name is not AA enabled.

I attach a screen capture where you can see both cases at same time.

I see a new post from yesterday, and it is now shown as read, so it seems fixed.

In this case this is the thread bugged:
https://www.lfs.net/forum/thread/1917-Cars-we-wanna-see-in-S3

I see this bug quite often, twice a month or so. Didn't find a pattern yet. I can get rid off it click the 'Mark forums read' (https://www.lfs.net/forum/8/markread), but I guess I shouldn't be getting this bug in the first place.


Anyone with the same issue? Or is this a random thing per individual users?

Quote from Vertical_Drifts :

How do I fix this? It was working before

Nope.

Quote from Gutholz :

I think in offline mode it has always been like that? Only in multiplayer it continues recording if you pit or spectate.

As Guholz suggests, you can create your own server, so it records the whole session. BUT remember that doing that will result in a bit jerky replay instead of a completely smooth one.

Quote from noR. :

Thank you for answering! The game freezes just after a few minutes, so it really should not have had the chance to overheat.

It doesn't take more than 5 minutes to (almost) reach the max temperature in CPU/GPU. I wouldn't rule out this posibility so quickly.

My HD5750 dos not have any problem with Windows 10. If this is relevant to the matter I don't know xD

After that long post I was expecting some info about your CPU load, or a screenshot of the physicss wait/sleep chart in LFS.

How are your CPU temps? Maybe it is thrttling a lot causing all that.

Quote from Miaaaam :

So why pinging server is part of the test procedure (detailed on the first post of this thread) if the server does not answer to ping request ...

Quote from Miaaaam :

$ ping master.liveforspeed.net

PING master.liveforspeed.net (188.122.74.158) 56(84) bytes of data.

Because that test still tells us wether your DNS are working correctly.

But yeah, you would have to point where your LFS is installed, and it would not be ideal in all cases (for example if you don't want to restart LFS).

You can grab it from registry "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes\lfs\Shell\Open\Command" (Works for me in windows 7)

But LFS does not require to be installed to work

Sonce Windows Vista you can't play on more than one display while on fullscreen (you can play on a window stretched across all the displays you want).

That's why AMD released Eyefinity, and nVidia created Surround. Thought your displays must have the same or quite similar resolution.


I have no idea what GPU you have, and neither do I know if Intel supports this.

I don't know what could cause that, but buying a licence will not make a difference, that's for sure.

Quote from Whiskey :

The answer is right there. If you create a server from the game, it's going to ask for an admin
password. Then you'll know what to write in LFSLazy settings

... or you can just click "read cfg"

Never used your program, but that is a really handy feature

Quote from CZE :

Hi.I try run it in offline game but it gave me an error about worng admin password : LFS did not respond.Possible Admin Password error.
Go to multiplayer->start new host and make new sure that field Admin Password is matches define admin password or leave it blank.

And next uestion what is Pub stats key and what tu put in to this box?

You can get your PubStat key at www.lfsworld.net

Your InSim is probably sending too many buttons. The TCP buffer saturates and throws that warning. If this is the case you have to reduce the amount of buttons sent at once.
