I know he's not shown much in the last season, and I must admit, I haven't watched one race, nor will I watch any race from this season.
But I still prefer Schumacher. Granted, there were moments of complete shame when we could see moves like taking out Hill in 94, again in 97 on Jaques etc. But still, after watching epic races like Barcelona 96, Silverstone 98 and many others from when F1 was still F1 and was entertaining to watch(which ended when Mika quit racing), those events alone are enough for me to admire a racer as much as I admire Schumacher.

Yeah, I understand what needs to be fixed in order to get this running. Just thought it might be a good thing when you're looking through the AIRW Best Laps, you can see which servers are(if the time is recent) running your wanted combination and have a connection with AIRW.

Hi,

is it possible to add the server on which the player got the fast lap featured on AIRW Best Laps list?

R500 and 996GT2 on "The 'Ring". Impressive driving.

I'll give it a try. But beware, I'm not that good at skinning.

Quote from Dennis93 :Instead of telling him how useless his 'Manger' obviously is, try to help him to improve instead of just nag nag nag.


idiots.

How can you help with re-inventing the wheel?
Don't have the time to try it, but by the description of it it's nothing more than simple input drivers on your team and maybe add some more data to them, like maybe laptimes on certain tracks etc?
Like said before, this can be done in like 5 minutes in a spreadsheet application like Excel.

You want the skin to be the same as the one you posted. There are two problems.
That ninja from the shirt wont fit on that skin.

/troll off

The skin file you posted says DO NOT EDIT IN ANY WAY.
If you convince me that you are the author of that skin(don't know why would you ask for help then) or if you can provide the authors "ok" to edit this skin I just might try and make something for you, when I'm done with the skin that I'm currently making.

Oh yeah, one more thing. The file name says "XRT", but the skin is obviously for the XRR from an older version(mirrors don't match etc.), so for which car do you want it?

Good point. Or "notepad.exe", as it doesn't seem from the description that a lot of data is manipulated here.

Or maybe even better, after reading the readme file, one could also use a spreadsheet as provided by Excel/OO.o Calc or I think even google docs holds some spreadsheet capability, to help you track your team member data.

Quote from hyntty :and I really don't get why you've bundled it with an sql server.

Probably he hasn't heard about SQLite or any other "portable database" you windoze peepz are using.

Quote from EQ Worry :OK, LOL, not that it matters much, but I updated the item to:

# PROS: Do not send driver/track/car/lap data to AIRW - boolean
# Please set this item to FALSE if you're running a tweaked server
# and use Airio PROS, the only version communicating with AIRW.


Great! The universe is back on track!
Kidding, kidding. It was just a suggestion, didn't know you'd actually listen to me.

As I thought.
Maybe change the comments of such settings to: Enable/disable sending driver/track/car/lap data to AIRW....

Hi,

a question regarding the configuration files, more specifically this section:
Quote :# PROS: Do not send driver/track/car/lap data to AIRW - boolean
# Please set this item to FALSE if you're running a tweaked server.

Does this state that only in PROS version one can turn off sending data to AIRW or will it not even send any data to AIRW, no matter what option you set here in a FREE version?

Regards

Yes, I understand that.
But it seems, GIMP doesn't when converting.
Here is what I get when I convert your .psd to .xcf, without including the help part:

Yeah, I managed to open your kit with GIMP.
But there are some black spots all over the side of the car. You have added a mask layer, but it doesn't mask anything now. I think it's black-full-opacity, I've tried inverting but the lines still don't make sense to me then.
The layer name is "Lines", but instead of lines I get black patches all over the car.

And if I ever make a skin that I will release I'll make sure to include your credits in it for your masterpiece. It really is wonderful. But mostly I just like playing around GIMP when I'm bored and make skins, just for fun, not even I use them.

It doesn't show transmition/wheel speed?
Funny. When I drive the XRR into the sand and rev it up in gear the speed goes up, but car doesn't move. So that does show wheel speed if you ask me.
Don't know what happens if all drive wheels lock up, if the speed drops to zero.

I'm not going on Gentoo. I use Slackware for ages. Gentoo doesn't offer anything special to me that it would be worth for me to change the distro.
I compile everything from code anyway, by hand or by using slackbuilds.

I know what you meant, and I've also tried shutting down the server(LFS ofc, not the whole machine) and leaving it like that for 30 minutes and starting again, with no effect.

Uhm, those aren't GT class cars.
GT class cars are, corvette, saleen, ferrari, porsche, panoz, aston martin etc.
Cars that are normally in a production class but modified heavily, what we already have in LFS(XRR, FZR, FXR), considering their "production little brothers" (XRT/XRG, FZ5, FXO).
Lolas, Audis, Peugeots, etc. are prototype race cars. But yeah, would love those.

Quote from yankman :One other thing, if you like to have full control of your binaries (=compile them from source) and squeeze the last bit out of your hardware try gentoo distribution.

<-- Slackware maniac. Thanks for the tip tho.

I know, stopping and starting right after makes it act...strange...mostly, the insim port doesn't get bound, but that's not the problem here, as it is listening on both ports.
I know it might not be kernel-recompile-related, but that is the last thing that I have done on the system, so I'm kinda, sorta out of ideas.
And inspecting the whole thing on my side, it seems to be working good, but I have no clue why is it not showing up there. I have even enabled logging everything from my firewall to see if anything LFS related gets blocked, but all passes through just fine.

Thanks MadCatX for trying it out.

Well I've ran into a problem now.
LFS server has been running fine, has shown up on server list and people could connect to it.
Now I've recompiled the kernel to the newest stable, 2.6.37.2, and the server doesn't show up on lfsworld.net server list anymore. Why is that? Inspecting the connection list it is connected to LFS:
tcp 0 0 my-IP:29999 lfs-IP:61506 ESTABLISHED 23372/wineserver
tcp 0 0 my-IP:47387 lfs-IP:29339 ESTABLISHED 23372/wineserver

So firewall is not blocking. The darn thing just doesn't show up there. I'm guessing it doesn't show up in the game either, and no I can not test it out right now. But if anyone would be so kind, server name is "GT3 Racing", without quotes.

It also shows that airio does connect to the server, so have no clue what's going on.

Oh does it now? Seems that I don't have the newest installed then.

Yes I know about that.. But it's in PSD. I don't have PhotoShop and ImageMagic failed to export all layers as it should so I couldn't get off the filler or anything else for that matter. Most of the layers we're just black or rainbowy.

If daloonie doesn't mind and if anyone would be so great to save these layers separately for me, it'd be great(not all, just the filler and some body parts).
Where can I find some "car parts"

Hi,

where can I find some specific car parts, like in example, the opening for re-fueling on a GTR car, like this:
http://www.shrani.si/f/21/of/3U6WwKPr/fuel.jpg
It's from a Panoz Esperante GT2, I've tried putting this on, with cutting, stretching, rotating etc, but it just doesn't look good. Does anyone have a "database" of such stuff that we can put on our cars?

ColGaddafi: I always wanted to know this, but couldn't ask the right person to ask, and now you came along and I just can't resist!
Does it hurt to be stupid?

I'm giving up on you. I think not even you know what you want.

Stupidity is strong in you, isn't it?

You complained about how XRG could use bigger wheels, stiffer suspension, more power(turboes) etc.
And I told you, why it doesn't have any of that. Well mainly because of what I stated before and because it already has 2 bigger brothers.
