Quote from a112 :If you maybe mean that key is jammed,it's not,but i will try it with different keyboard,also when i put mouse as control device,it's doing the same thing!

Is your keyboard connected thru USB or PS/2?
If its thru USB try different USB ports and then restart the comnputer.

Anoither point:I had the same problem on my old machine that keybard started working really weird as well the mouse.I found it my CPU was overheating

Quote from erick.matthias :tried the PING, timeouts and 100% loss of ping. so no luck. I will ask around my dutch buddies.

IP is 82.44.126.169 btw

sorry but thats not really wise to posting the IP adress here if the above adress is from master server.
I cant ping the server as well but that could be pretty normal.Just security reason.

use 5.10 or 5.11 for your graphic cards.Should work definately.
If you use LCD set the refresh rate to 60Hz.Some LCD have probems with diplayzing picture at 75Hz even they should without problems.

Did you get the LOW FPS where you are behind many cars?
If yes then its combination of the slow graphic card and your processor.

If you get this slow down also when you are just alone on the track then the most nottleneck does your graphic card.Its really not a good performer.

Dont use AA(can be found in drivers) with this card,set less details in LFS.

Quote from nutty boy :OK. I'll check all the PM's as soon as I can.
Vain is definately through, he found it and sent a screenshot.

btw NB is not the secret message that stands for nutty boy and I'm going to put that in my layouts somewhere everytime I make one.

After every this cha;ange can you make clear what was the hidden riddle?

Quote from Woz :The DX10 hardware also has DRM built into the hardware and unless you have DRM enabled hardware throught the complete chain from source to render, be it sound or vid, it will downgrade or not even render. This even follows through to your monitor, which must be DRM enabled. Just read about the new Nvidia DX10 cards they are working on, these have DRM in the hardware.

Sorry but you are wrong its not the DX10 hardware but its special chip on PCB thru which are going data to HDMI connector.That chip has special key which code the signal so it can meet the DRM requiremens.

There are already some cards around which have this chip and they are DX9.

This DRM is about those special chips and software implemantation.

I really dont want Vista after I have tried it.The interface is more complicated then Windows XP had and this will be an issue for most regular users.Vista just eats memory so for upcoming graphic orgy titles you will need like 2-4GB of memory because Vista can easily eat 400-500MB that was without any of program running in background.I can imagine the memory using could go easily with all these fences interfaces up to 1GB.Jesus....what si really Microsoft thinking.For me the Vista still looks liek a another fiasco.I think Microsoft is really quite aware about this thats why is delay by delay.

Looks at this for example. Microsoft made it clear that OpenGL support would only work as a layer sitting on top of Direct3D. There was going to be translation involved and thus a performance hit.They have changed their mind and OpenGL will now be natively supported in Vista without layering over Direct3D.

I think there will be more and more changes to Vista because Microsoft had too much visions but there was lack of looking back into the reality.

Quote from dave4002000 :i was thinking caterham from the first pic and now with the second pic it definately looks like a caterham but with somekind of wide body kit.

edit: and didn't caterham make a model 14? as in Caterham 14? or am i thinking about the caterham 7..lol

Ok this was a really hard one and I could have been thinking about it befiore posting the 1st pic.
Its made here in Czech republic and its called Kaipan 14.The name Kaipan is also the name of the manufactur.
They usually made copy of Lotus Seven not this case ofcourse.

Feel free everyone to post his "what am I?"

Tristancliffe,
you have must been drinking too much beer again .

Seriously the point it rather that he cant still admit that he made obviously some wrong things so some part of comunity is really upset.I said already he could help devs much better just not giving it to his friends hands and give the aplication directly to Scawen.

There will be always holes as you cant achive 100percent vulnerability as it sometimes less time and sometimes longer time but its very important what approach will take the guy who has created something like that.

I will not bash n3o here and there because he at least found out a bit what this small aplication has caused and trying to fix it.

Quote from Victor :You have a brain you know - use it!

Victor,
sorry couldnt help myself but you are throwing up last weeks better and better quotes

@CSU1
Your last comment was a bit harsh.Dont you think.You are trying to find too much consipracy here.I know people who spend like 4-6hourse every day just practising their lovely LFS.Then guess from where their nice laps times come.

You are quite new so it seems you really dont know how the things are going here or in game exactly.you dont know who are the "old" guys with good reputation but you will learn yourself.

Tweak is for example the guy who created the template of LFS website its really rubbish to call him potential cheater or even someone linked with those creators of that cheat.

Watch around and I bet you will enjoy the LFS more and more.Good practising really bring results.

Quote from DownShift :oh dear god no, if they up date this game to DX9+ my FPS will go form 35ish to 10! PLZ DEAR GOD NO. i dont want to quit lfs becus my computer cant fliping handle the game :/

Dont worry.You would have the same game but some people could just set higher details like DX9 effects.I bet Scawen would made it this way so nobody would have a problems.

Quote from filur :Angered peoples, you do realize that testing a piece of software for vulnerabilities is basically the only way of finding and fixing them? There's a reason for exploit testing software such as Nessus being available.

Would you rather have n3o finding this sort of stuff and keeping it for himself? would be alot "smarter" to keep this a secret and then get to the top of the MHR by cheating as little as possible.

You also do realize that even if n3o is a skilled programmer, he's probably not the greatest programming genius that ever lived and hasn't spent four years working day and night on this, meaning this sort of exploit could probably be (quite easily) found by other people too, fixing it would be very beneficial for LFS.

In my opinion, n3o has helped Scawen find a serious exploit, meaning Scawen had time to work on the updated track selection menu instead of looking for obscure exploits.

More usefull and wise would be just giving it directly to Scawen instead of spreading it around.He gave it to his lets so called friend and the end of story we all know...
I bet Scawen would be more happy then see people angry now.Just my 2cents.

Quote from n3o :, i did nothing wrong, its just like mecanik or LFSTweak.

I dont want to start flame discussion because its notmy taste but its obviously that you have done something wrong by giving the program out of your hands.
The point is that your tool works online for latest patch while the other not.

Its like I would have a weapon and give it to terrorist and they would made somethign wrong.There would be no excuse for me.I would by guilty.I know its a bit harsh but thats just my opinion on this issue.

Hope you can still fix what you have done.

Quote from ZORER :My connection is 25kb/sec max speed and it costs about 25€ per month.

I know that feelingWe had it here like 3 years ago exactly same.My 1st "broadband" was 192kbit for 40Euro.
Now I have 5Mbit for 33 .

Give it time.They cant resist forever is it will be more and more visible they provide sucky service.

Its not as simple as you think.At the time S3 in the middle of the development that could be probably around 2008 almost all of the new sold computers will be already running Vista as OS.

This mean all the graphic hardware will be DX10 compatibile but rather DX10 native hardware.There was clearly stated that the graphic companies nor the Microsoft will provide support for Windows XP with DX10.It mean no drivers for WindowsXP at that time no DX10 for WindowsXP.
Its just almost impossible to integrate(at least it looks like that) DX10 into windowsXP because its fully rewritten API not like was DX8 to DX9.
It call different way the hardware.

So if Scawen dont want to let the LFS be lost in dust with less and less people buying it then he will have a problem probably not going with DX10.

Scavier need new customers to cover the cost of their daily life,cost of the all staff around LFS.You have to see it frok more angles.

I would rather see at least some DX9 staff in LFS around the start of 2007.It seems S2 could be finished before 2007,sure my pure speculation but it looks a bit logical.

P.S:I am a bit skeptical guy I agree but I would like to not see the all above to happen really.I have already tried the Vista and its total mess with all the changes and I even dont see them usefull for regular users who have even problem to unpack/pack a file into a zip file and other problems.I am daily deeling with people who have problems to work easily with current Windows XP.I dont see excuse for all the fency Vista staff and eating so much memory.My XP have after the start usually around 120-140MB nothing more.Vista had 400 at least:-(.

Quote from SamH :You're speaking of a guy who has manufactured a cheat. You think he will not manufacture a lie?

I'm not suggesting that his cheat doesn't work on S2. I'm saying that it should not be assumed, just based on his claim. His word can not be trusted.

I think he is dumbass who is trying to show off how good he is.I am not saying he must be right but unfortunately it looks like a more true then a lie.

Only DEVs or moderators could give some light on this if its working online in S2 or not.
