Not really a ladder system but...
I've been using a system to rank drivers individually on SCORE. The rank is based upon performance in the current league or series and is not in any way connected to the points table, but rather where in the field you finish the race. Works pretty good

...and what is so wrong with comic sans?

SCORE server is located in Europe
Sweden to be exact, hehe

Quote from Hankstar :

I don't view the wheel on-screen as I can see my own hands on my wheel and shifter, so I don't mind either way if this gets implemented

Dito
Why have a second set of wheel and hands on the screen when you got them in front of you in real life? Hehe

The sort of behavour described above is something I never would allow for. Neither a newbie, nor a veteran. It's plain wrong.
When ever I have my host machine running I have it save the replays automatically, and anyone that experience this sort of stuff on my server just have to email me about the time it occured and I'll have a look at the replay. If it's beyond all doubt that the person accused of "ill behaviour" is in fact doing it on purpose or by neglecting other drivers and general racing rules, that driver is banned.
I sort of hope that my server will become a santuary for good clean racers that way. Both newbies and oldies

Quote from Hankstar :

for the record though, I've met more than a couple of human drivers online that haven't been much better than the AI

Amen to that. Some humans have really forgot to attach their brain before driving

Thanks Silkswift
By the way... I found out that when I press the Welcome Message button in RaceManager (I use windows version since I don't have a clue about what "pyton" is) I actually starts the VoteChecker. Is there an update?

Thanks
I allready new about Racemanager and it has a lot of nifty features. Problem is I can't get all of it to work, and I can't figure out how to use the relay. Problem is (i guess) that the configurations is a bit technical
For the end user (that's me and a lot of other peple) a simple interface is absolutley crucial. That's why even I can get PitSpotter and AutMessage to work. Compared to those two programs, Race Manager is really intimidating.

So... I'm still waiting for an InSim mod that has Rolling Start, Track Changer, Auto Message, Pit Spotter, Ghost Car and may some other stuff I find usefull, all in a nice package with a clean and easy to understand interface

...the "ultimate insim mod"? Let me explain

I use LFS Auto Message a lot when hosting. But when I'm racing I like to use the PitSpotter mod. Is it possible to combine these two into one mod? And while we're at it... Why not put the SlickMod and the Ghostcar mod in there as well. And possible the neat track changer feature from RaceManager.

Well I know I won't have to explain further... All these mods are very usefull, but you can only run one of them at a time. I would like to run them all. Since LFS only allow for one InSim program at a time, I guess the program would have to be multifunktional instead. But is it possible?

It's a guy that tells you if there are cars beside you. Much used in Nascar style racing, but very useful for any kind of racing. The spotter tells you "Right Side" to tell you that you can't go right, or you'll hit a another car. And it also tells you "Clear" when there's no longer any danger of moving left or right on track.

I've started a campain on SCORE to convince the people there that LFS is the sim of the future. Since 50% (or more) of the regular visitors are from USA or Canada, I think I'm doing my part to spread the word in the right direction.
Progress so far... Four of the regulars have signed up for the league. Two from Europe and two from Canada.

Love the Amiga (1200 is it?) in the photo. Mine gave up on me a while ago, but I'm trying to get hold of a new one

Does your LFS folder have spaces in it's name (like this: "Life For Speed" rather than "LiveForSpeed")? If so, try to rename the folder to something without spaces in the name. Got this tip when I had trouble running it...

Yes... The cars in the STCC mod all have to obey the same physical laws
The difference is in engine performance, weight, aerodynamics, track width, wheel base and so on.

Different physics mean they all are individual cars. That there is a distinct difference between how the cars handle and feel and that they all have their own strenths and weakneses.
Still, they are all competitive on most tracks.

Saying it's impossible to match cars with different physics so that they are even are just plain bull... I created the STCC mod for Nascar Heat and it has 8 vehicles in it, all with different physics. There are even mixed FWD, RWD and AWD in that mod as it was in real life (STCC season 1999 and 2000).
I got these cars running with in a tenth of a second of each other on pretty much any given track, and it only took about 3 month of beta testing to get it there. One single patch was made after initial release since it was a general opinion that the AWD cars had an advantage on some tracks. After that, they are all considered equal and you can drive the car that most match your driving style and still be competitive.

If an old sim like Nascar Heat can do that, I bet it's possible in Live For Speed as well. It's only a matter of testing.

Well I'm a sucker for class racing and never can get enough of cars from different manufactures trying to beat each other. In real life there is a series called Dutch Supercar Challenge, and they match cars into classes with a Weight to Horsepower system witch proves to be very good. And as said in the post above, two of the three GTR's are closely matched, but still got their strengths and weakneses. The third need some work though.

So... More cars in the GTR class please, and a couple of more cars to match the small GTR's (XFR and UFR) and make them equal to, but not the same as, each other. Thanks

Last free and clean version of Roger Wilco can be found on SCORE, in the files section.

Reminder:
It's less than 20 days to season start at Blackwood GP. It's time to pick a ride and start tuning your car for this event. See you on the grid
Oh and of course... Newbies are welcome

Roger Wilco is 356 Kb and the interface can be understood by my grandma.

I know that TeamSpeak and Ventrilo are the voice chats most poeple use, but I never really got to like them. Maybe I'm stupid, but I feel I never had any real control over them.
I use an old version of Roger Wilco (last non commercial version) and even though it's not as crisp clear as Team Speak or Ventrilo, it does the job it's supposed to do.
It's small, easy to setup and use and it's totally free.

God Jul / Merry Christmas to all of You from all of me!

Got some endurance experience and I really like the XRR :eclipsee_

Patch or no patch, doesn't matter. Have a Very Merry Christmas. I know I will.

Bought a new MOMO wheel
