Quote from Scawen :On my computer it automatically puts a sheet of paper behind a tiny version of LFS icon. No shit!

EDIT : attached picture shows the automatically generated thing.

How to change the icon via code (example for SPR file):

Create a registry key called:
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.spr , default = sprFile

then create:
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\sprFile, default = Live For Speed
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\sprFile\DefaultIcon, default = "C:\LFS\LFS.exe,0"
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\sprFile\shell\open\command, default = "C:\LFS\LFS.exe \""%1\"

This will use the main LFS icon for the SPR files, or change the DefaultIcon value to another Icon :P

Thanks for the comments guys..

this is definately not a "I am going for good".

n1Racing is very quiet at the moment and has been for some time. I found a new game to play which is taking up most of my free time (Eve-Online). But I am sure I will reduce my gameplay on that at some point.

hopefully the rest of the n1 members will come back, I would hate to see n1Racing die...our Team Manger is away on Army duties and for the rest I dont really know. A few may have moved to other teams, our forums have been dead lately.

I even tried to become a member of the OLFSL crew to keep me in the game, but with RL commitments on a Sunday I was missing most of the races.


I really love driving sims...infact I can not even driver anyother since I played LFS so I am sure my passion will return...possibly within the new F1 season.


And as Arnie syas...."I'll be back!"
I have lost my passion for LFS

Well after a break of several months I have tried to come back to race, but still there alot of idiots out there and gettig a good clean race can take several attempts to start.

I hope to be back at some point, but I dont see it in the near future.
So until my passion returns I'll see you later.

When does Comma Seperated Value not mean...

When does Comma Seperated Value not mean Comma Seperated Value?

When your working on Euro style documents.

I am wrighting a program to read in values from a CSV file and add these values to a structure.

Works fine in English as I am using a ',' as a token to find the data, but I just checked a csv saved on a German OS and the "Comma Separated Value" is a ';'

So when does "Comma Seperated Value" not mean what it says, everywhere but English!!! :hbomb:

Scawen,

I know how a pain it can be to support different codepages, but luckily I have not needed to support 2-byte Japanese (I see your not supporting that yet too )but I know I will have to adapt my program for that soon

So far I have worked with 90% of Windows codepages including Greek :P

Good Luck!

Well this looks like a good place to place this, this is a very simple LFSW theme for the Pocket PC 2002, 2003 & 2003SE

Just got myself a MDS Compact and messing about with themes, I'll post more if any one is interested.

On a side note, some people will block messages in race too, so they wont get to see the request.

Quote from clp :I run 1920x1440 on my primary 21" CRT and 1600x1200 on my secondary 19" CRT

since the original post was in relation to web design..

one of my all time pet annoyances is web sites/designers that insist on maximising my browser window.. i mean, seriously, .. do they really think i want to run a browser in a 1920x1440 window? illepall

CLP

I agree @ work I have a 19" TFT @ 1280x1024 and I do not run my browser on full screen, but at home running 1024x768 17" CRT I do.

now how can I swap these without my company noticing ....... :P
