to use the face track program
download my file first
http://www.mediafire.com/?5ogvmgx8b3ojkzb
copy and paste it to the (Settings) folder in installed folder of face track

open program and set settings as I say

1.in (Profile) choose the downloaded file
2.in (Track Source) choose (Face API)
3.in (Game Protocol) choose (Fake TrackIR)
4.now click (Start) and then let program track ur face
5.enjoy the ride!

And how is that correlates to my post?

Quote from Neilser :

However, the peak acceleration at a given engine speed if you have a choice of gears will be in the gear which maximises the engine power.

That doesn't make much sense to me. At a given engine speed you have a given engine power, and since transmission doesn't change power only rpm and torque (except for the transmission losses, but that's not the point here) you always have the same power at the wheels for a given engine speed, no matter which gear you are in. Perhaps you meant wheel speed.

Yeah, weekends would be great for me too.

Quote from Juls :

Today I wanted to use the LX4/LX6 online. Unfortunately there is no server with a proper combo.

Just a little plug. This week we (Dead Men Racing) run the LX4s at SO chicane route rev. This week means from Thursday to Thursday. Though tonight is a special "team racing night" (details are here http://www.lfsforum.net/showthread.php?t=41394 for the interested) other nights are regular racing, and every sensible man (and woman ) is welcome, no matter the speed.

No need to be sorry, it's perfect.

We are over 1800 now.

Quote from Polyracer :

To get an advantage you buy better equipment as in real life, not to "cheat" by having a better but unrealistic view of the proceedings.

I don't see it that way. I think chase view is a good compromise between expensive equipment and realism. Ie: chase view itself is not realistic, but it gives a better peripherial view like multiple monitors, and this itself gives the feeling of realism, by providing something like that you have in real life. I agree, that the ability that you can also see ahead on the road much more is a clear advantage over cockpit view, and it doesn't have anything to do with peripherial view. But as I said, it's a compromise, and compromises are never perfect.

Quote from JTbo :

I find that it is not that people like to ban chase view, but more like people like to ban force cockpit view option, which I can't agree.

Ah, aye. Well probably I'm one of the few, who uses cockpit view, always used, but still can't get what's the problem others have with chase view. I hugely miss my (real life) peripherial vision though, my dream is a 180° monitor setup.

Also, I'm racing (almost exclusively) on a FCV server (dead men racing, the place to be if you hate boring combos *shameless plug over*), and I don't think we had more than 1 or 2 occassions where someone complained about the FCV since the introduction of it in W (or which patch). But of course, I guess the unusual combos already filter the average Joe out, so it may not be representative.

Quote from Lateralus :

Interesting. I have a Momo too so I use auto-clutch also. What advantage does the button have on starts?

I would like to know that too.

Many people use the argument that chase view should be banned becuase it gives the advantage of seeing more. Going by this argument, shouldn't we ban 2-3-more monitor setups also? It's unfair to those who don't have enough money to use them. Oooh, you say those are realistic? Yes, but they still give you an advantage. The same advantage that chase view gives you, to have some peripherial vision, just like in real life.

Ahahahaha, rotfl.

What about chatting (VoIP or IRL) and driving? I can't do that either. I'm so much concentrating on driving, that I simply can't chat nor listen. If I do, I crash.

Well, guess what, I just bought a car, which has a dashboard exactly like this: http://www.vectralcd.de/ersterTest.jpg Funny, isn't it?

But in LFS i prefer analog speedo. I used digital when I was a beginner in LFS, and used to glance at it at the apex. But then I read that you should drive by the feel, not by numbers on your dash like a robot, so I tried it, switched to analog, and didn't look back.

Do you know what I don't understand? I tried it with 20AIs on BL1, with 8xAA (that's how I play LFS) and 0xAA. There was no difference in fps! From that I would conclude that my gfx card does almost no work, in other words it has heaps of surplus, the cpu is what limits the fps here (which is btw a core2duo @ 1,8Ghz, please Scawen, implement multithreading).

But: then I lowered the LOD from maximum to minimum, and I gained some ~10 fps! This is totally contradicts to the fact stated above. Ie: If the gfx card has surplus, how do you gain fps from lowering the gfx details?

Hm, wait a second, computing gfx involves the cpu too, even hardware T&L can't leave out that step entirely. So maybe that's the reason? Computing AA requires only/mostly the card, but computing verteces requires more power from the cpu too, and that's already on its max computing AIs and physics.

Opinions?

I used to check the hosts joined/finished races ratio.

Ah, how nice. No wonder they are arguing about who was first.

Actually, I don't know this expression. What does 'free to good home' mean?

For anyone interested, this week we are running LX6s at SO town. We are active every evenings from about 21:00 CET to 23:00 CET (20:00 UTC - 22:00 UTC). A dMr week is from friday to thursday, with a 1 hour long race at thursday. Everyone is welcome as long as you're clean, regardless of speed.

Don't waste your time in replying me: I will be taking my second two years break.

Cheers,

Oh my god, don't do this to me, I'm crying right now. ((((

Quote from kurent :

That is one weird spike.

Not that weird if you think about it: It was the formula 1 race. You could clearly see that people left when it started, and joined back after it.

Yep, as garph said, report them to the wrecker barricade: http://barricade.ukct.net/

Quote from Kalev EST :

Race 2 is usually on GTR´s anyway... At least that´s how it seems to be when I look at the server´s list.

Imo Race 2 lost some of it´s drivers to SS and BnJ servers but what really killed it off was making it alternate between GTR´s and TBO´s. Now when the car classes switch the server empties instantly because most people only like one of those classes. (I only like the TBO.) And getting an empty server to fill up again is much much much harder than keeping an already occupied server occupied. People join servers that already have people in them.

Yep, every time I look it's GTRs, or it's empty with TBO. I don't race there much since it was almagamated.

Exciting racing moments, genuine engine and ambient lfs sounds mixed with fitting music altogether packed to very atmospheric and nicely flowing video gem, 9.5/10.

Thank you very much mate! I almost forgot this thread/movie. I just watched it, it's as great as the others. Very good movie Kraniwani, keep up the good work.

Yep, that's it.
