I just had to do a few laps before going to sleep, only had time to try clear morning and wow, even without modern shaders it is really beautiful, great work!
That is strange. Was that at Kyoto? It seems like some kind of memory corruption. Can you make it happen again? Can you remember selecting any options or pressing any keys before that happened? Was it ok when you first joined and then this happened after a while?
Clear morning looks nice indeed. It gives me that kind of warmup session feeling. At the same time I am disappointed to see that it replaced my favourite weather conditions.
- It was at Kyoto.
- Can't reproduce.
- Can't remember doing anything that would have caused it.
- Forgot to save replay
- Initially it was fine, it happened after a while.
- It fixed itself when the race was ended and a different track environment was loaded.
- The client version at the time was *K6*, not 7, just to clarify.
- I'll definitely try to get more info if it happens again.
Specifically, it happened while the LFS window wasn't in focus. I had left the game client connected to SRS:TestingGrounds in the background, while I was doing other things like browsing the web. No way to tell exactly what I was doing at the time. Maybe it has something to do with the new handling of window when it's not in focus?
At one point I had a brief look at the LFS window to find the error messages and the corruption. Nothing more I can say about it at this time.
Thanks for the info. A couple more questions to help me try to reproduce it.
1) Was LFS minimised at the time when it was not in focus, or was it in a window?
2) Is it possible the host changed lighting or track environment while LFS was not in focus?
1) I would say windowed, not minimised.
2) Changed lighting in the same environment, very unlikely. Changed track enviroment, possibly. Various tracks and cars were used while I was connected.
This probably isn't high priority but it seems to me the KY2 PTH file is outdated. In my data/smx/KY2.pth was modified 7/1/2005 but you can see from these screenshots it doesn't match the current track/smx data. I have plenty of other tracks to keep the driver entertained, but thought you'd like to know. The corner is the second left off the oval if you were running KY2R.
The red line is not the line provided from the PTH files, I only use the PTH files to get the left/right edge of the track, blue and green lines in these shots.
Agree. Clear morning looks very nice but I miss Cloudy Afternoon, it had a great English feel - not that the new one doesn't have it It would be great to have both.
