Someone once said that 'the day we have a black president in America is the day pigs fly.'
Wouldn't you know it, 100 days after Barack Obama is in office, Swine FLU.

ANyone who wants to see skins in hi-res should have to pay the artist!

Thats what I needed to know.
So I will go with nvidia, to keep both cards in the same family. Heck maybe I can always sli them later when theyre super outdated.

I will run them separate for 3 monitors.

thanks.

Thanks...
so running two cards in sli mode has no advantage/disadvantage from running two card (not in sli) when using sftth for 3 monitor setup?

Im currently running two monitors off the 8800gtx (I only 'use' one monitor for lfs though)

I just picked up a 3rd monitor. I'll have 1 lcd widescreen in the center, and two regular format lcd monitors on either side.
I currently have an EVGA Nvidia 8800gtx card, and understand I need to pickup another PCI-Express video card.

I sort of prefer to get another nvidia, so I dont need to worry about driver issues and such. Ive read they can be bridged, and in most cases a slower card can be used. I dont recall the numbers but I believe my 2nd pci-express bus is slower than the one the 8800gtx is currently in.

so, how do I go about doing this? get an nvidia slower card? (recommendations?) bridge them? or dont bridge them?
etc

if connecting 2 computers directly, then yeah a crossover cable is needed. If you have the means, you swap pins 1 & 3, 2 & 6 on one end of the cable. Google it to be sure, (youre swapping the oranges and greens). or just buy a crossover cable.

The blackviper site is pretty good. It describes in basic language what each service does, and recommends settings for each. I use it quite often when setting up a new pc. He lists the defaults so you know how to set everything back to normal again.

Likes: To know what Maggot is up to with this chair. And likes to think about getting out on the boat this weekend for the first fishing and golf outting of the year

Dislikes: the 4 days between now and the end of the week

The guitar and drums from rockband will not work with our 'guitar hero 2' (all this on PS2)
But the guitar from 'guitar hero 2' works with rockband.

So, is it possible to use glasses with dual or triple monitor setup do you think (As long as the monitors match refresh rate or whatever the requirement is)

Weve not played GH World Tour. But we have rockband and guitar hero 2.
I like the songs on guitar hero more... but I like the guitar from rockband much better. The frets on it are easier on my fingers than the button style GH frets.

Quit them both and get a new job in a different state each week like this guy.

Ok not THAT kind of dirty...
THIS kind of dirty.

Does rfactor not have a forum?

The fuel filler is 'bent' because it was a kit I made to resemble IRL cars of sorts, where the fuel filler is recessed into that bend form sidepod to engine cover.

MSZ garage link is in my sig

I think this would be cool. Driver could be housed in a sphere for total immersion. Add some shocks for vertical movement/drops (bumps)


Now all we have to do is figure out how to make it for under 2k

Having something 'crappy but new' is better than 'great and old'?
Thats like saying 'I want a new kia rather than a '69 vette'

Im not sure whats up with his site. It didnt used to ask for password and username, but if you click the close x a gazillion times, the username password window finally goes away.

Have a track building contest.
Devs gives outlines/rules on file type, image maps, etc...
then they choose which ones they want to implement. Most of the hard work has been done, and they get to control whats added into the game as they see fit.

I think that, no matter what route you take, its difficult to pull much over 1g, and therefore you wont get as realistic as real life. I dont know for sure, but I am guessing that force dynamics tries to compensate for this by giving you a wide range of movement. But saying you dont like the way it looks without having actually tried one? Im not sure that's the right approach to making a motion rig. Considering its motion were talking about here, itd be wise to try to test some actual motion through feel rather than eyesight alone.

Im not saying that force dynamics is great, bad or indifferent, simply because Ive never tried it. but one things for sure, i would sure as hell like to try one.

Now, onto a cheaper method? this guy built one out of pvc pipe and windshield wiper motors. browse through the site, hes got alot of how-to's, and videos. THough he built it mainly for flight sim, he also has vids running LFS with a wheel on it.

If you can change the channel the wireless is using, it may help. They sometimes interfere with wireless phones, other wireless networks and devices (depending on what sort of wireless your using).

Since your disconnects happen quickly, it might be worthwhile changing the channels to see if it improves.

Though most likely a cable is going to be your best bet.

um... Aren't there spotters in real life?
If someones too lazy to look left or right, they're probably too lazy to bother downloading such a tool.

He did not guess Natty Bumppo (First great american frontier hero). He instead guessed Marlboro Man.
