And in a few months we can also celebrate the 5-year anniversary of the latest new car.

October 11 this year marks that 200 weeks have passed since it was announced that the Scirocco would be out in a week. But hey, whats an extra one thousand three hundred and ninety two days of waiting when we all know how awesome it's going to be?

Quote from The Very End :

Haha
Not to mention our border got exctended yesterday, almost up to north pole now reach our new borders.

So now we rule over even more loads of water and ice! Btw, could we be any more off topic than this?

Quote from The Very End :

Lol fu Finnland, your the only barrier that prevents Norway from jumping over and raping Russia back to stoneage.

We do have a stretch of border towards Russia, you know. No need to deal with them drunken Finns to get there.

On cruise servers, I shake my head at the cops whenever they manage to bust me. If the animated drivers could look up and down, I'd be nodding in true "Night at the Roxbury"-style all day.

Quote from NSX_FReeDoM :

the blackwood straight in the bf1 gives me just enough time for sex with my girlfriend.

BW straight with UF1: Put a book on the accelerator, clean the house, watch 6 episodes of Family Guy, do the dishes, have a look at the screen just to make sure the car isn't heading off the track, reinstall WinXP on one of the other computers just to pass time. After this is done it should be about time to start turning.

BW straight with BF1: What straight?

Intel E6750 @ 3.0GHz
Gigabyte P35-DS3R
4GB PC6400 RAM
8800 GTS 320MB
M-audio Delta 2496
Vista ultimate, 32-bit

And, of course, the G25

LFS will run at anything between 70-200 FPS at 1680x1050 with 4xAA, but I use vsync to keep a rock steady 60FPS.

Quote from Taavi(EST) :

At 1st i thought it looked like the house was as a wing for the car, and the car had a chimney. But now when u pointed out the XR i saw the real car.

No, I actually think you were right! Devs! Why didn't the XR Motorhome make it into S2?

Quote from hrtburnout :

You mean this?

Is that LFS S1 on his monitor? The car looks like the XR

Yup, center spring is a no-no. And lower the in-game FF strength till the wheel is stable as said. To much FF makes the wheel feel "jaggy" when turning it slowly anyway

For some reason i was looking at this shirt at a LeatherMan store here in Oslo, and didn't notice the patch at first. It caught my eye as I put the shirt back in the rack. Cool, huh?

If you look closely, it actually says "Live FUR speed".
I would've bought the shirt if it just wasn't so damned ugly


Is this really allowed?

Quote from spsamsp :

Or the host could just choose which conditions they want the race to be in...

That's probably the best solution. Keeping it simple

Quote from DethMag :

That does sound good in theory...for the road cars

It wouldn't work to well for the single-seaters though as they don't have lights!

Now there's a point... Single-seater races at night isn't very realistic anyway is it? I didn't think about that when I last posted.

Besides, night-time races would probable make LFS more system-intensive. Which would be a shame as I love being able to play it on the crappy comp at my parents' house whenever I'm there for the weekend But as the game evolves towards S3 it'll most likely become more system intensive anyway, I guess

Quote from Greboth :

For now i dont think this is a good idea, but if we ever get different racing conditions like night racing then it could be a good idea. Although as said would cause problems as people would race udner different conditions.
So maybe the clock in car is the same as the clock on your computer but the day/night is set by the server time.
eg -If server is in uk then runs gmt time so day and night would be to the gmt times

Or just imagine if it was possible to have every track being synchronized with their respective timezones, as the LFS tracks are located all over the world.
Ex: If you are playing on the daytime in Europe and you join a server running on Fern Bay (Jamaica) the race would be at night because it would be nightime in Jamaica IRL Anyone following?

Sounds cool, but such a feature would present problems in multiplayer. Players on different timezones around the world would be driving under completely different lighting conditions in the same race.
Imagine a player in Europe racing an Australian player, one of them would be driving in the dark and the other one in daylight Wouldn't be very fair I think...

I have the clutch assigned to the X button on my Driving Force wheel, and it works fine for me as my thumb usually rests near that button when I drive
I mainly use the clutch to build up revs and powerslide my way out of nasty understeer situations (works about 2 out of 10 times...haha)

My budget rig...

AsRock DualSata s939
AMD Athlon64 3000+
1024 Mbytes of RAM...the cheapest one I could find :P

Hercules Radeon 9600 256Mbytes (Slightly overclocked using Omega drivers and Traytools. Zalman Heatpipe fitted for silence )


Screen resolution is 1200x900, all LFS settings max
FPS are between 30-50 with AA and , and 70-100 without AA

Oh, and I always use cockpit view.

i thank anyone how helps me

This happened to me once, I believe I just reinstalled the game instead of trying to fix the issue... But how about reinstalling/updating your graphics card driver?
