Is there any way to use some kind of debug-mode on LFS? to see what the imput is from the pedals?
Because the only thing that has been changed is that I have upgraded LFS to the latest patch.

The only thing that has been changed is the upgrade of LFS.

I do not use any special game-profile for LFS and uses the standard. I have re-saved it, delete it and made a new one but still the same. the strange thing is that when I use combined the axes follows smoothly the gas/break pedal.


Here is how it looks when I have 50% break.


and here is when I have 51% break.

I thought I wrote so much and yet I missed to write that

Yes, I have made that setting so LFS will use seperate axes.
When I use combined axes in LFS and in the controlecenter it works just fine. The axes-bar runs smooth but when I use seperate axes the break-bar has like 2mm span and goes from 0-100% in two steps.

Hi

I have an old MS Sidewinder Forcefeedback steeringwheel.
Before the latiest upgrade I could use my break as normal (seperated axes).
Now when I try to use seperated axes the break freaks out. I have tried to reset and recalibrate the axes as well but it doesn't work?

Some how the problem is now that I have only two stages of break. I have to push down the pedal about 50% and then the "break-bar" shows from 0% to 50% immediatly. when I move the pedal like 1mm more I get 100% break.

As I said, I've tried to recalibrate the axes but it doesnt work with the break. The "workaround" is to use kombined axes (with the gas) but that's not a long term solution!

When I check in the sidewinder controlcenter the break-pedal works just fine. When I push like 10% it shows 10%. So It must be something with LFS here.

Anyone got some solutions or ideas about what it can be? (No, I can't buy a new steeringwheel either).

That's good you found your problem and could fix it.

I have also found mine!

For start, you can't have F-Secure (antivirus) online. You need to deactivate it. For some reasons it will stop the guest info package to be received. I knew that since earlier so that hasn't been on.

But the major thing was my ISP. I have 10MBit/s connection via fiber. (wonderful by the way) I called them and told me my problem. they told me that there wasn't anything wrong with my connection so I had to get some tracert's and mailed them to them. It was some kind of routing/BGP-problems that they had. Sometimes depending on the load they had at the time my traffic was routed in different ways. One of the ways had a routing problem.

So my problem was actually a ISP-problem! But keep in mind to de-activate your anti-virus program.

Quote from Bogey Jammer :That's I want to know too to understand the problem. I gonna ask the developers for it.
I tried Wireshark but my network knowledge is limited and I can only see that there's no network traffic when LFS is waiting guest info..

mmm, we are going nowhere :weeping:
It would be shameful to give up LFS just because of that connection problem :tombstone

Same here. I can't see any connection attempts to either the master server or the actually host. and now I mean nothing happens.
It would be nice to know what it is actually waiting for. Is it my computer who's listening for something that never reaches my computer. Yes, there is nothing arriving at my network cable. I have sniffed for everything but nothing comes up.
I have tried without my router and the built-in firewall so I have exposed myself to the internet without any firewall at all so that's not a issue here (with blocked packages in the FW).


I think it is somekind of a major error actually. If it was just one server that I had this kind of problem with then I could understand that it was something with just that server which didn't send me the guest info but not it is almost every server.

I wouldn't like to give this game up just because this! It's a good game/simulator! but it's not fun to drive alone

Tell me/us if you get any answers from any developer!

Hi

I have that problem as wel. "Did not recieve guest info".
I have checked with my firewall. I donät have one installedon my computer but I have one in my router. I have tried DMZ, without router and everything. Nothing works for me. I have been abel to join two servers now in two days and none of them had more than 3 players online.

Exactly what does it do when you get that errormessage?
