Kinda does what it says on the tin, doesn't it?

Somebody should mock up a bean tin that reads:


FUSION

(may contain traces of Higgs Boson)

Sounding interesting, but I can´t imagine how it looks like... could you post a screenshot?

Why don't you just try it? Anyone can with Z18, although your framerate might suffer too much to still be playable.

why the frick are my packets sent all around the interwebs just to find google??

Heh, I'm 14 hops from that IP.

It takes me one hop to get to my router (I'm behing an AP), a few hops to get out of my ISP, a few more to traverse the internet, before finally hitting google. A lot of hops doesn't necessarily mean your packets are going all over the internet, just that there are a lot of pieces of hardware on the cables that connect you to google.

You will notice all of the subforums here relate in someway to LFS, whether directly (beginners/tech assist/setups/addons/etc), or indirectly (hardware - needed to run LFS, racing talk - this is what LFS simulates). Everything else must go in off-topic. I don't see how general software discussion relates to LFS.

Edit: MudPuppy, is there really any software that is incompatible with LFS, or causes issues? It's a fair point, but if there's no need...

If you have issues with a particular, please (try to) take the issue up with the server owner. Even if they frequent this forum, the matter should be dealt with privately.

Scawen, values are the same when the bug is not occuring, when it does, I get two click releases, the first is wrong (and presumably is the one used) and the second one is correct. Right clicks do not trigger the messages at all.

Not all cards will run 3D in 1x PCI-E slot though. I had to upgrade to an SLI board in order to get a second 16x PCI-E slot so that the card would run in 3D mode, and thus do more than merely extend my desktop onto the third display.

when i set the number of monitors (left or right) from 1 back to 0, the screen moves to the side and i cant make changes any more. after some digging i found that deleting views.bin set things back to normal.
using softTH.

Aha, I think this is the issue I've been having. If you don't delete that file, what happens if you just repeatedly mash the left and right mouse buttons instead of just single clicking? That seems to get it to work for me.

An interesting idea, but remember that a car takes a lot more physics and rendering processing, not to mention memory, so you'll never be able to add 512 cars instead of hay bails, and I'd imagine that for every car you added, you'd be able to have one less person join the server. There's also the issue of the dedicated server, as I don't think it runs the physics, so either it would start having to, or somehow get this offloaded to one of the guests.

Tweak does not work for demo users anyway.

Would definitely like to watch a decent video made with the mod.

Shows promise though.

Don't go off topic you newbie.

Wolf is a type of dog. I nealy went with Panther, as that's a cat. The domesticated versions are boring as hell. A good pet should either eat me, the postman, or ideally both.

Wolf.

This is related to the way trailing arm suspension creates jacking forces which cause this unusual behaviour. I'm not sure if anti-dive or anti-squat geometry works in LFS at all.

Please use existing threads on this topic.

And what evidence do you have that your account was taken by someone you know? Anyway, since you only have a demo licence atm anyway, there's nothing stopping your from creating another account for the month, if you feel it was definitely not you who used the hack.

Enough of the "my team > your team" dribble.

Did the trick! I was able to copy the file without the hard drive going bonkers, but presumably the data was already lost, as I get a few frames of corruption in the video (at the point where it would normally freeze). Still, better than not being able to play it at all.

Thanks, I'm downloading the demo now.

Quote from PhilS13 :

Slam the throttle : Your finger will be feeling wheel bearing friction + the exact same amount of torque that is accelerating the other wheel.

Quote from Shotglass :

how exactly do you judge which kind of diff youve created?

Compare tyre forces, if they are equal at all times*, then diff is open.

*Steady state, of course

With diff model B stated above, tyre forces stay within 5% of one another, which is pretty good given the massive integration error involved at the time step.

Quote from Shotglass :

also im guessing your open diff model doesnt handle excess input torque correctly

One wheel will spin more than the other, unless resistances are exactly equal, in which case they will both accelerate at the same rate, which is only ever going to happen when they are in the air.

Quote from Shotglass :

uhm... no

So why is it then that keeping the felt torques equal creates an open diff, and sending equal torque to each wheel creates a LSD?
