Thanks for offering your help...
...however we already got a replay covering the last part of the race.

Quote from felplacerad :

Hm, just tried U28 and LFS totally froze.

Gonna try once more.

Edit: nope, happened again, just after retrieving the list of players it freezes for a few seconds then CTD.

I can see the window with crash information but it disappears before i can get the info.

When trying to start an offline race... after loading the track and clicking OK, U28 quits to the desktop without any notice. XP SP2, Intel P4 2GHz

Attached is the replay "test.mpr", after about half an hour my team mates realized that my car was no longer visible.

At Qualy-time 33:16 I ("KR-schofei") parked my car and for a test I asked my team mate "KR-Steffen Luther" to hit my car. I had to tell him my car's position for he couldn't see it.

He hit my car but with no damage on his side, whereas my car got damaged.

Quote from Honey :

Scawen, i think i found the way to reproduce this bug, please read my comments on this bug report -> http://www.lfsforum.net/showthread.php?p=185362#post185362

it seems to happen when the server is under "some stress", to test it:
- join to the AutoX Compo Test Server (seem to be the most affected server -> see InSim considerations in the liked post)
- let other 15 or 20 be in the server (the more people, the more frequent)
- spectate/join/away commands will trigger this bug after a while
- verify yourself ISP has nothing to do with it


hope it helps, cheers!

Just like to confirm this bug.

Happend now the 3rd time after updating my LFS from Standard U -> U20 last week that others don't see my car, same effects as GAS-Hugo described in
http://www.lfsforum.net/showthread.php?t=7059

Dedicated Server (KR Krautracing): Version U
Track: FE1, Cars: XFG, XRG
Players: a mix of U and U20,
some players use InSim Apps e.g. LFS Display

Bug is not depending on the number of players.

My LFS: Version U20, no additions
System: P4 2GHz , 768 MB, XP SP2 + up to date MS patches, DirectX 9c

Quote from ORION :

1. The collisions system has been like this ever since, at least since Im in LFS (1st April 03)
2. The amount of energy is calculated by how far the cars overlap when colliding. Any other method would be really complex. Just remember that LFs calculates the main physics only 100 times a second - this isnt much. When you drive with 300kmh, the car will move 83cm EACH calculation, that is almost one meter.

Online you only get 6 packets/sec, so it's even worse, although there might be some interpolation in between.

Difficult to understand is, that a collision is handled differently, one car gets tossed around just like by titanic forces whereas the other driver very often not even realizes that his car was hit (and in fact, his F10 doesn't show any damage).

Quote from Hankstar :

It's pretty generous imho, considering it's playable online and has three cars, while most race-sim demos I've tried in the last year or so have had one car and no online content at all...
Like Gabkicks, I would like to see some suggestions as to how to improve the demo instead of all these people saying it just isn't good enough. A demo's meant to be a taste, a teaser, a demonstration after all...

Yes absolutely, those who are complaning about too few cars and too few tracks don't really want to spend money for software, they always want to get anything for free.

In my opinion restricting the demo would be an improvement as the demo is far too complete, 1 car 1 track and/or limited online racing time should be sufficient to get convinced. However, the devs are rather generous, so that many demo racers stick with the demo for years instead of buying a license.

S2-S looks as if all S2-Q cars (especially the previously nasty RWD cars) have been converted to BMWs and follow their slogan:

Sheer Driving Pleasure

THANK YOU DEVS

An incredible software has got even better !

Any additional car is welcome.

Driving the BWM Sauber F!.06 within todays most realistic sim will be a very exciting experience, no question, although personally I would prefer to have a BMW M3 GTR in LFS.

Now with the BWM Sauber F1.06 LFS rounds up the whole bandwidth, from 55hp Mini to 700+hp F1 cars, which also demonstrates the outstanding LFS physics being capable to handle them all. This is one of LFS's strengths, so people can pick up various types of cars depending upon their preferences.

To me this April thing isn't just a simple patch, it's a major update and will mark a milestone within the whole LFS development process, especially since major global players are now involved. Although we don't know the details about the partnership with BMW and/or Intel, everything seems to be possible now. Real race tracks as requested by many people are no longer out of reach, this has become more a less a matter or manpower, so sooner or later (guess even sooner) the devs will have to enhance their development team.

Quote from ajp71 :

I love it to bits, so challenging. In GPL the three tracks I normally go near are Mallory Park, Cadwell and the 'ring.

I bought GPL at that time only for the Nürburgring was included. Took a while until I got down to 8:16 in the Lotus. However, I lost interest in GPL when I had to realize that other racers started cheating by replacing the Lotus engine with the more powerful Honda engine.

Yes, the Ring is not for beginners, neither in a sim nor IRL. Years ago when I was living near Cologne, I went to the Ring quite often to watch the races or just to do some laps of my own in various BMWs. And I can tell you, no words can describe the feeling.

Quote from v4forlife :

tbh, with some of the comments about comparing, yes, there will be people saying(if we get the ring) that its crap, and how come i can go 20-30sec faster in a car on lfs, as opposed to a similar car in rl, well, you also have to factor in the armco in rl. in a gme, you have no fear, but, and back me up anyone who has also been to the ring, its scary as hell, thinking that one patch of oil from a morning session could effectivle kill you, cause it may have gone un noticed, or whatever.

"Nothing gave me more satisfaction than to win at the Nürburgring, and yet, I was always afraid. When I left home for the German Grand Prix I always used to pause at the end of the driveway and take a long look back. I was never sure I'd come home again."

Jacky Stewart


Jacky Stewart was it who gave the Nürburgring Nordschleife the nickname "The Green Hell".... nothing to add.

The devs were teaching us a lesson

Easter is the most important religious holiday of the Christian liturgical year, so most people don‘t have to work on Easter Day. It is sunday anyway. Should we really expect the devs to work rather than celebrating Easter?

The Blackwood Guru is a wise man. Unfortunately people usually don‘t understand what wise men say, the Blackwood Guru is no difference.

The old blackwood forest guru once said...
"better waste a minute in life [by pressing F5 and waiting for the release of the patch], than life in a minute"
"but who [really] needs a minute [of driving] in blackwood [on Easter Day at all]?" [ -> nobody !]

Unfortunately the Guru is a Blackwood Guru only, so he did not talk about other tracks besides blackwood. Otherwise his words probably would have been clearer.

So the message is:
There are more important things in life than a patch/update for an already excellent product.

Quote from IKHAM :

I had LFS downloaded on my hard drive about a month ago. Meaning to play it, but kinda forgot about it. However seeing as it was the easter weekend and i've got 4 days off work, i thought i'd give it a go and i'm glad i did.
...
Now all i need to do is get myself a steering wheel. This joypad isn't going to do the game any justice.

Welcome to LFS,
yes a wheel is a must. Consider buying a force feedback wheel especially since the FF implementation is just excellent in LFS.

Looks like some people will start loving statements like

"It's done when it's done."

from more serious developers who name their baby alpha 0.5 Q. And although omitting the suffix "pro" the quality of their work is indeed PROFESSIONAL.
