Also Hi from here I have S2 since a couple of days and have played the Demo over about half a year. Thanks a lot to all the brains who made and still make this wonderful Sim reality. I bow in deep respect.
At first I'd like to say hello and many thanks for that great Simulation. I liked it as a Demo but I love it as the full monty, it is just great, but I start to repeat myself. Now to my problem:
I have two operating systems on my puter, Win98SE and Win2000Pro.
Win98SE is mainly for Games and for messing around. Normally I play LFS from this OS.
The Win2000 partition is for work and I leave it as untouched as possible.
Due to some sound issues with Win98 I gave LFS a try with Win2000 (same Installation !!!). It appears to me that it is running more stable in terms of frame rate and the sound is also much better with Win 2k. And since LFS doesn´t messes around with the OS I decided to stay with Win2k for LFS. NOW comes the problem:
The game was already unlocked under Win98. When I started it up in Win2k (as I said, from the same location than it was with Win98) it was again in Demo status. Still no problem here. So I unlocked it again under Win2k. BUT when I started it up again under Win98 it was back in Demo status. Now that I have only one unlock left I would like to know if it is possible to run LFS from two operating systems from the same location or do I need two installations, one for each OS ? Can I have both unlocked then ? Apparently it is quite impossible to run both at the same time.
@xaotik: thanx for the link, will give them a try
@jmkz: also thank you for the link. Man, these guys are really pissed and the only thing, the poor girl from CL can say is: "refrain from using bad language on these forums", Very funny !
Although I have onboard sound on my MB I use a Soundblaster Live Value soundcard in my system (Athlon XP 1,6 GHz, 256 MB RAM, GF2 Pro). My question is, whether there is an influence on FPS if I use onboard sound or external soundcard. Meanwhile I am quite happy with the FPS rate I get, but since my system is on the low side, as you see, I am always looking for the optimum. Before I start experimenting, I would like to know your experiance in this issue.
