Apologies about the links not working. I have now updated the domain name to point to a new server so the links should start working again in the next 48 hours.

Sorry again that I haven't replied sooner but I haven't logged in for a long long time

I can only assume that the app still works.

Cheers,
Marco

All insim add-ons talk to the server via the /insim xxxxx port. LFS then talks back to the server on a different port (often hard coded to your insim port +1). Other add-ons will allow you to configure the "listen" port manually. Every add-on must use a different return/listen port but the same insim port.

Well I think the show get's less and less support from traders because it is meant to be a trade show, not a "Let's sell everything cheap so that all the dealers don't get so many sales throughout the year" show.

Quote from Niels Heusinkveld :Yes that is the misconception imo! Of course torque curves aren't identical but if you imagine a variomatic, a 7000rpm 250Nm engine would accelerate the car just as quickly as a 3500rpm 500Nm engine! So torque doesn't tell you how fast you'll accelerate at all, because torque gets divided through the gearbox and final drive.

Ferrari probably uses the wind tunnel and computers to optimize the car body shape and most of all some underbody diffuser, accelerating the air out of the back.

Ok, I said in simple terms. If we are going to start throwing gearbox drive ratios rpm and god knows what into the equasion than you are not talking about simple torque / bhp figures anymore.

Quote from sinbad :I hear that a lot, but don't understand it. Please explain.

Ummm thought it was pretty clear ^^ ....

Your Top Speed is limited by the amount of bhp you have, and of course the weight and shape of the car, wheel/tyre diameter etc.

If you have a lot of torque, you will get to your top speed quicker.

"In theory", a car with 200bhp will accellerate no faster than an identical car with 150bhp (if they had the same amount of torque).

Torque and BHP ... Simply put, The amount of Horsepower you have determines how fast you can go, the amount of Torque determines how quickly you get there.

Not sure what you mean. The REN is returned/decoded just like any other TINY packet and should read 11 on the fourth byte. Not tested this but unless there is a bug in the insim protocol that should be the case. It's only fired when /end returns you to the "home" screen though. I don't even know if it's fired after everyone has left the server.

It's been bugging the crap out of me the last few days with the XBL problems. Hopefully they will sort it out asap.

my Gamer Tag is black halo uk if anyone wants to add me for some FM2 action

Quote from The General Lee :If you send it back, they send you their "revised" version and that doesn't click and is very quiet

Mhhhh in that case I might have to think about sending it to logi for inspection

Nice one!

Aren't you a little concerned about the quality of setups that might be uploaded?

Quote from [UKR] Race King :why don't you send it back?

Because I am an addict and can't survive without my G25

Might take the gear shift to bits sometime and see about fixing it - not that keen on the h shift as it's very clicky and has no real feel to it.

Quote from Woz :I find normally if someone bitches about wind being enabled it means they care more about lap times than racing or they have learnt to drive LFS like a robot and cant deal with it when its enabled. The second case is easy to spot. You hear something like "ffs I brake at my normal marker but can't stop in time whats going on" or something similar where they are sure its not their fault
