Well, I played LFS the other day, and closed down as normal. When I come in today, it makes me start a whole new driver. When I click on my name, it says it can't read it. What happened?

Well, there has to be some punishment for driving at the oval.
j/k, no idea what that could be.

Hehe- I guess you saw me there? I really need to figure this out. Lost all my server pb's.

What, that can't be. PB's are license bound afaik, not to the player you chose ingame.

PS: the LFS forums add "online at ..." under your avatar when you're playing on a server.

Ahhh I know about the forums thing. Its just that the servers hold your PB with your selected username. Like if you had a bob 1 and a bob 2 username under one account, both would have their seperate times on tracks.


I jujst want my old username back.

No you have one account and one username. You can have several drivers names setup in-game so you can switch between them, but they still register with the same account name on LFS World to store your PBs.

So you cannot loose your account PBs or details from LFS. They are stored on LFS World. What you have lost sounds like your driver/config from in-game.

Yeah. The in-game driver account. Bob1/bob/2 in the example.


I think maybe the file was corrupt? But each server with the lap records displays the best laps on that drivername.

I want my old driver name. It's in the colors I want, and it's KrisIsAwesome

It still displays in the driver selectiopn, but it can't be read. So now i have to use an "L" in the "Is" instead of actually spelling it right. Is there a way to remove the old drivername? It wont let me in the game.

listen, it will not delete your pb's, they are saved as "Kris-Is-Awesome's pb's" or whatever on LFSW, it doesnt matter whether your called Kris, Bill or Betty your pb's will still be there!

Try renaming the problematic .ply file in ..\data\misc
