Rules are rules unfortunately.

I just hate the FIA for being.. the FIA..

imo it has killed F1 in the 2000's, before then it was awesome, now I don't even hardly watch it anymore

Quote from Flame CZE :Even if I wasn't licensed in S1 days and wasn't racing like you, I really like MRT races. Very close and it's a lot of fun.
Edit: There's a MRT server running now, a just.Racing, not much people there but I'm going to race there

:eek:

I would join but i've been stuck doing this render for the past like 4 hours only thinking it would've taken 1!

Quote from Bose321 :yeah but it's still useless, you go fast, hit a wall, reset and do the same for 4 times?

More fun than flooring the gas and waiting 40 seconds until you hit a wall, reset.. and do it again!


Now please everyone, either on topic, or get out.

You mean resolution?

Dimensions are like width and height in inches.

The buttons may be moved around a bunch, but it should work,

..what screen uses 1600x900? that is pretty wide....

I miss the old S1 MRT races... how come no one does those anymore?!

It's all these either big fast Formula cars, or the slow stock cars, nothing in between!

A fast go kart would be beyond tons of fun though!

Here I go again... AUTOX STUFF!!!!1
.. needs to be checked out, seriously!

Yea the angle mirrors thing has been in the improvement section now for about as long as I've been part of LFS..

As for seeing who's beside you going in to a turn, the only way you can do that in a car in the real world is looking around.. standard mirrors for sure don't do that!

Unless you install extra wide angle mirrors on your car..

@Forbin, yea the racing school at RA is kinda like that, it's classroom for several hours, do a little autox cone work to get a feel for the car, lunch, hit the classroom again, and eventually hit the track, and the second day it's more classroom, then track again and back and forth

Minimum age for the cars though is you have to at least have a beginners license so..

At that age then you just have to beg your parents in the first place to drive you to the track, and then figure out who's going to pay for it all!

No I know, I'm just saying, he's saying it will prevent crashing, but if you can't see out the back lol.. that isn't helping!

No I 100% agree, I've been wanting to see the mirrors fixed since early S1!

Quote from racerboy59 :I agree. We need more realistic mirrors, especially side mirrors. It will help prevent crashes, as less blindspots and better visibility.

Holy thread bump batman!

Older problems with more 'realistic' mirrors was increased calculations (less FPS), but really they will only help on outside mirrors, the rear mirror would be restricted (seeing rear window, spoilers.. etc.)

Quote from Chrisuu01 :Demo users do not help to keep LFS alive so they dont realy deserve credit IMO harsh maybe treu YES

Not 100% true, there are a good number of very positive demo users that give back to the community.

But sometimes and typically yes, but eventually they either leave LFS completely, or get a license or otherwise.

When you grow older logitek you will realize the true uselessness of cussing, I never cussed in highschool but maybe once, first semester of college everyone I was friends with he shouted our heads off with cuss words because we were out of highschool and thought we were cool, by the time second semester came around we started to realize how truly pointless and idiotic we sounded.

I hate it when little kids cuss, I want to punch them in the face for knowing that junk anyways.

The only time I laugh when people cuss is when it's like 90 year old grandparents, I think it's funny when they start to cuss

Quote from danthebangerboy :until the nazi's used it, and that is sadly what it will forever be associated with, WW2

No see that's just ignorance is what that is, if someone thinks of it that way, then they're doing it wrong.

Oh god, of course political correctness!
PC is the dumbest thing in the world, you know.. what happened to the world the last 9 years, in the 90s it wasn't like this, in the 80s it sure wasn't, 70s.. getting colder, 60s who cared? 50s being polite was normal, but even then there was no such thing as PC...

No you want to do an assignment.. pick up what I started doing this new years (I had to stop because I was running out of time etc. [exams were getting close and I just couldn't keep it up] started falling behind so I just stopped while I was ahead)

360 project; take a photo every day and make up a quote for it.. it's fun, makes you get out and think a little!

Quote from logitekg25 :maybe there should be more competitions giving out liscenses to the winner...like theveryend did.

Hah.. you go right ahead sir and do that, but I think I am going to save my money for gas, food, etc.

Honestly if I had loads of money just sitting around I would totally host some types of competitions of all sorts of stuff (anyone can be fast but being fast doesn't mean you deserve a license), but seeing i'm a college student with no job.. don't count on it from me right now lol

Quote from AutoPilot :I just checked prices on newegg and:
- the cheapest way to have 4GB of ddr800 (the same speed as in studio 15) is 2x $25 = $50
- the cheapest way to have 6GB is $25+$170 (the cheapest 4gb module) = $195.
Upgrading through newegg from 4 to 6 would therefore cost $145, and that's assuming you can sell 2Gb for the full price.
So, Dell's $115 is actually cheaper. You could go with ddr667, that would be $105 for the upgrade...

Okay it may be cheaper, but who needs 6gb of ram.. honestly?

Unless you're working on poster size images, you don't really need it that much, 4GB will suit you just fine.

I mean sure you can go ahead and get the 6GB of ram, but that's only 2 more gb of something you may not even use. I still say save that money and wait for ram prices to drop considerably (like they always do)

Just.. whatever you do, don't.. get.. a 9400M in a laptop, it sounds nice and all.. but it's an integrated card, I didn't realize that until two months ago.

Quote from Jakg :True - but if I can make Avast never need me to do anything (and endure the occasional "i've updated / read ma blog bitch" notification that hides itself in 3 seconds) I might as well use something, as it's not going to slow my PC down at all.

It rapes my mothers' stupid toshiba laptop, we have it set to run at 3AM but it runs whenever it feels like and it just it's like.. EXCUSE ME! CAN'T YOU SEEM IM BUSY?!?! it just freaks out and I just hate it.

I mean if I had a desktop that was faster and could just churn away at stuff .. maybe, but I like to use every drop of power my machine can lend me so..

I mean like I said, if you're just safe about it and not an idiot, there isn't to to much of a reason to freak out about it.
