We've done a lot of research into reasons why that could happen but we could only conclude that either your router or ISP is having problem routing UDP packets. Some ISP's seem to block really tiny UDP packets for example. Others just don't like UDP at all, albeit temporary usually.
That's the test forum you are referring to. The bugs forum is always open : http://www.lfsforum.net/forumdisplay.php?f=7
But I'm afraid your problem is not an LFS bug.
:/
I have just gone back to version z22 and z22 works fine :/
Nothing is wrong with it and I don't care at all about one additional entry. I was merely pointing out that, since as I understand you will be using the installer for everything from now on, including testpatches, regular users who do have a problem with it will have to go through the procedure with every update.
Personally I dislike the installer for a different reason, which is that it overwrites existing files without prompting the user. Obviously a solution to this problem would be rather complex as you'd have to distribute a hashtable with the installer to compare existing files to, check if they are the originals and only replace them if they are and prompt the user otherwise. I don't ask for that, I don't really ask for anything, I was merely supporting Dygear's - in my opinion reasonable - suggestion.
I did not have to reconnect, i just pressed shift-n and it was back to normal. However, very strange that everyone on the server lost the sound at the same time.
I saved the replay. Strange bug indeed... Also happends in the replay
(cutted the replay because it was to big to post it here, still you'll have to FF to like 24m 45s).
Tell me if it doesn't work or need the full one. (since mpredit sucks a bit here)
I can confirm that the sound vanishes - I think Niko caused it. Watch the pit exit at 24:45, on top of the bridge the where the left corner down to the exit ramp starts; Niko crashes and flies off into the trees. His car hangs there for a second before the sound cuts out at the exact moment where he respawns onto the track. If you watch him directly (first person/follow view, not shift+u), then the sound bugs out even more and the camera doesn't respawn at all.
I have the same message in Opera 10
How did you try to connect? I went to lfsworld.net, Servers, and clicked "join server". I'm using Opera 10 and I got a security prompt message asking whether to allow the website to open lfs.exe or not. I chose "Yes", allowing access, and my LFS opened and instantly joined the server I had chosen to connect.
Same thing goes for IE8. Everything's working wonderfully.
Maybe your ISP engaged a Firewall, that´s what happened in my case (more or less same problem). Try calling their support, solved my case at least.
I've removed your posts because they are basically spam - this is not a ranting thread.
Also I removed the replies to your posts so the thread still makes sense.
What would be helpful is if you quoted the poorly translated lines and suggested an alternative.
I think it is unlikely that we would use it for test patches, unless we are testing the installer.
Did you have LFS Join installed before? I think maybe you would get that if the messages are still going through LFS Join.
So... if that is the case I think you should uninstall LFS Join.
I've also attached this useful tool which is like a cut-down installer that only add or removes the associations.
Save the exe from the zip file into your LFS folder.
Then after uninstalling LFS Join you can run the association tool and make sure the lfs:// association is enabled.
NOTE : The translations are not finished in the association tool.
I got the same parameter 1 invalid message when trying to join: [url]lfs://|[/url][SR]+Hotlap+League|0|S2/ but once I deleted the association and joined it on LFSW with: [url]lfs://join=[/url][SR] Hotlap League it worked 
I had installed Join2LFS but I have uninstalled it. Basically I just deleted its files.
I also ran the tool you attached with no success!
Firefox has the following associations available:
I will translate them for you:
- Always ask
- Use "C:\LFS\LFS.exe" %1 (default)
- Use LFS.exe
I'd better check this...
On which website are the Join links you are trying to use?
The LFS World ones : http://www.lfsworld.net/?win=hosts
And the "online at" under someone's name should work.
Other websites may not yet be updated,

Well that's interesting. I didn't use LFS World links. I clicked on some links of the first type you posted.
So can't I join to a server through this type of links? Is there an issue with character encoding maybe?
edit: The links I followed are available here: [url]http://gvrteam.gr/forum/viewtopic.php?f=64&t=1147[/url]
Just click any "Join" link above of the boxes!
E: ^^^ I guess that kind of answers it ^^^

Are you sure you're actually clicking a well-formed lfs:// link?
A correct link must look like this:
If someone creates a link that is just
you'll get the parameter 1 invalid error message.

Yes I noticed that on our homepage http://www.sonicrealmsracing.co.uk/ where the join links to our servers haven't been updated yet to include the "join=" therefore don't work
[url]lfs://|GVRteam%20Demo%20Server%20%232|0|S2|/[/url]
Well there isn't any "join=" part in the above link...

I click that above and get the parameter 1 error.
I use lfs://join=GVRteam%20Demo%20Server%20^h2 and I can connect...

Yeah. So either this kind of links should be updated or the LFS should work with them too.
I think that's developers call.
I think it's the responsibility of whoever puts those links on their page, etc. to use the now correct format. I can't imagine the URL format will ever change again, now that it is implemented in LFS itself, so it should only be a one-time change anyway.
I love the file associates so when I download a replay it'll automatically open in LFS.
And the install is a breeze, thanks Scawen! (Y)

It is definitely time for all LFS websites to update to the new format.
The problem you encountered inspired me to write some instructions to help any LFS website owners to update their links :

I guess the guide is what is needed for the webmasters!
