Quote :3. Unlock Rules and Regulations 3.1You may install S1 or S2 on 2 computers for your own use or to race a friend on a Local Network.

I guess that is simply that if you unlock one game online, you can then do another using same credentials (again, online activation). I suppose this is because the activation server allows 2 different IP address on same account. This is interesting to know but i dont think it will help me.

Thanks for the ideas though - keep em coming!

Quote from Jakg :look in the "cfg.txt" file for "Port 80" - if you change it to "1" it will let LFS unlock via port 80!

Nice try mate, but sadly the proxy requires authentication and LFS does not use NTLM (Windows NT Lanman) authentication or even have any settings to enter the proxy details manually. So all it does is try to send the activation
direct from my PC on port 80 and fails.

Any other ideas? LFS developers - please put the option to use a proxy into your game, as there is in many other games these days - you are preventing many customers from playing your great game!!!!

Well finding out the port used to unlock is progress, but sadly i do not admin the proxy firewall, just out everything within our domain.

I suppose i will have to come up with a ligitmate excuse to get this port unblocked for a short while.

What if i was to install on my laptop and then take home and activate and then bring back into work, would all the other people connecting to my laptop be able to use the extra cars and tracks when playing a LAN multiplayer?

Hi

I am a system admin for our organisation. We use a proxy firewall to route all internet traffic, this requires logon but uses domain user ID.

I cannot active LFS because it does not have any proxy settings nor does it utilise the IE proxy settings.

Can anyone tell me how to get around this please?

Thanks
