The trees should be brought back into the chicane IMO

Strange, I didn't even notice the bigger changes before I read about them here. Which means that I also haven't had any problems with the new track. Which is nice.

Edit: Why isn't there a :P smiley?
Edit: Yay, found it!

Haha, great thread I remember most of the stuff mentioned...

This is not that old, but I did some proposals for making the tracks better and this was a better Blackwood pitlane exit.

Edit: Haha, was that Racelife video that old? Brought back memories and now I feel like an old grump.

I play mostly on cruise servers, in 3rd person view and I use a gamepad, so I'm at a big disadvantage now.

Deggis, great job

Ok, what I meant was that you can manage by speaking English, but you can be despised at some occasions when not speaking Finnish. Which means that it's good to learn it. :P

Yes, you would need to learn Finnish, although you can manage the basic stuff with only English.

Quote from JTbo :

It is very same with English, at, on, in, etc. are perfectly mystery sometimes

in = ssa, ssä (sisässä)
on = lla, llä (päällä)
at = kin (jollakin, jossakin)

Of course now comes the trouble, Man was in the house = Mies oli talon sisällä (llä, wtf?) so you need to take time and learn every bit so that you can speak even remotely right

So in our language there are rules, but then also exceptions to rule, which we have many, I think almost as much as rules if not more and that is of course thing that is hard.

Hän on autolla = He is at the car
Hän on autossa = He is in the car
Hän on autotta = He is without a car
Hän on auto = He is a car
Hänellä on auto = He has a car

:P

I had a good laugh reading this thread - I mean, seriously

I am not a good drifter nor drift much usually, but I managed to do drifts easily during the test-patch period. So whine off and go learn how to drive if you can't manage.

Quote from DeKo :

You can but trying to do it properly at racing speed would be a pain in the arse.

You only need to match the revs to do it in LFS, so it works like in real life Takes some time for them to drop though.

I just remembered to post here, yes, I am in the club!

Cool update, now just the patch to wait for

To be honest I haven't played LFS for a while, but I suppose this will change after the release of the patch

Sorry mates, turbo engines get better mileage and more power when the difference is only "the same engine with and without a turbo". That is because of better fuel burning in the engine because of more air. (Although I'm not an automotive expert, this is how it was explained during our truck driving courses in the Army).

Why do you want to get admin rights anyways?

Well yeah, open up the case, remove the bios battery for a while or reset the bios, that should get rid of the bios password if you want to.

Also, boot from a Linux live CD and you have access to all files on the Windows partition. If you find the password file, it should be possible to decrypt. I haven't ever fiddled around with that stuff, so I can't say for sure. Google is your friend.

I speak:
Finnish, as mother tongue
English, very well (I study it)
French, very well (I study it)
Swedish, quite badly (compulsory at school)
Spanish, quite badly (want to learn it though, tried to study it)
Wolof, some words and sentences (spoke quite well when I was 4, not anymore )
Japanese, some random words (pantsu kudasai!!! :P )
And latin will start next thursday (compulsory course)

Quote from NitroNitrous :

This article is interesting

That page is extremely good as well, as it explains something about interlacing not many video capturers know (that the fields shouldn't be blended).

And interlacing was the first video compression technique to be used.

Download ffdshow as this might be a directshow problem.

Here's a small list of my favourites in random order (yeah, I watch quite a bit of anime):

- All Ghibli movies
- Cowboy Bebop
- Honey & Clover (yeah, I'm a hopeless romantic)
- Ghost in the Shell
- Steamboy
- Full Metal Panic
- Neon Genesis Evangelion
- Kumo no Mukou, Yakusoku no Basho
- Great Teacher Onizuka
- Planetes
- Akira
- Koi Kaze

And some others.

Quote from DeadWolfBones :

IMO, the chicane on/off the oval at KY3/R needs to be either 1) made into a hard 90deg+ corner that requires serious braking, or 2) straightened out and made into a (tight) sweeper that (in the Rev config) switches very quickly into a (tight) right-hand sweeper. It would make for a much more exciting section either way.

I'd change it like this:

VirtualDub

DK

It can't make mpeg-4 compliant files.

Quote from BlueFlame :

I haven't met 1 person who doesn't Watch Animé porn, just because they 'watch a bit of animé'

Hello mate, here's one person who watches (good) anime series and not an inch of hentai

Why did you have to bring that point up anyways? That was pure flamebaiting joy.

Quote from Gil07 :

FreNo - brakes? freno is brake in spanish iirc

That's what I thought too. It's frein in french.

Technically this is the problem we have - we are spending our resources by simply getting rid of good stuff that could be reused. Similar to the videos of destructing electronics stuff (blend the ipod, smash the ps3).

I've been in one car crash, and it involved our car and a tank

We were driving on the motorway passing some army trucks carrying tanks (Leopards to be specific), and suddenly one of the trucks we were passing started to veer right towards the exit. My dad was driving and we both wondered (having been drivers during our military service) why the truck is not following the others.

Then suddenly the car in front of us jumped to the right lane, revealing a car coming straight towards us on the wrong side of the road. My dad had quick reactions and turned right, but came short of correcting the movement and we hit the truck sideways. Sadly for the car, the tank's treads came about 4 cm out from the truck's sides, which meant... Well, I'll post the pictures.

We got even onto the newspaper Helsingin Sanomat for that
