Avira, for sure.

I'm also using Avira, it's made by germans and germans are painstaking, as a virus scanner should be

kkrieger is a 3D first person shooter with a size of just 96kb. I found it really, really impressive, a demonstration of programming skills.

Made it a bit more dramatic:

That was great, and kind of sad too.

R.I.P @ the driver

:wow: that was truly awesome

Nice video, thanks for sharing this. This looked like the 2005 Raceabout, while in LFS we have the 2003 Raceabout, could be a reason why it felt more stable.

WINE is open source, so you can compile it on ANY arch.

Never tried it, but I doubt that you can run x86 applications on a PowerPC using Wine. I think you would need an emulator to do that.

Quote from feat :

Don't get it.
How can you play some RPG or ''WOW'' style games at the same time while playing LFS Simulator. I don't have ANY ideas.

Ok i just fixed that, hope this suits you more:



Yes i know i'm late with this

That's my current desktop



The Wallpaper is made be Bioware: Aribeth from Neverwinter Nights says goodbye.

As far as i know from the way port forwarding works in my router, yes the port has to be open and accessible, or noone will be able to connect to the server.

Can't say what's wrong in your config though. But in your config there is a line which says "62292 - server port". And you're forwarding to port 63392, is that correct?

-Try to capture while LFS is in windowed mode (shift+F4)
-Capture LFS in a very low resolution, like 320x240, to see if your HDD is the bottleneck.
-Let Windows defragment the disk/partition where Fraps saves the video

Fraps is already very fast, I don't think you will find a much better capturing tool. GLC is very efficient, but it's only for Linux and OpenGL (I know this doesn't help you ).

I hear sound from the video, but the screen stays black. Whatever video format you used for that video, even ffmpeg can't play it. And that generally means it's very uncommon. Why don't you reupload the video, using something widespread like Xvid.

Thanks for your ratings. I had a feeling the onboad-cam part wouldn't be liked very much. But getting this 1/2 laps done, without loosing control of the car was really hard work, and I hoped that would be visible in the video.

Since there were some friendly words for my last video, I was motivated to make a new one. So here it is, my third LFS Video.

The video is simply about driving the BMW Sauber F1 without having the traction control activated. The video is devided in two parts, with part one standing for raw and fast onboard-action, while part 2 is more like an analysis of the driving, using close-camera slow-motion shots.

I hope you enjoy the video.

Quote from anttt69 :

Brian May

Yes, he's the greatest of all times for me. :bowdown:

Also I always liked:
James Iha, he made some incredible guitar solos for the smashing pumpkins.
And the edge from U2, just for his guitar solo in "The Fly"

I think at least VLC should be able to play Theora videos, even without the codec.

The only thing i can imagine is that the video file got corrupted during the upload/download. Can you give me the sha1sum of the video file? You can find the sha1sum tool here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sha1sum, if you look under "External Links" theres a Windows version of the tool.

If you never used sha1sum before:
-Copy the sha1sum.exe into the same folder where the video file is.
-Open a dos box and navigate to the directory where both files are located.
-Type "sha1sum.exe bad_driving_inc.ogg"

After a while it will output a string, which should be exactly:

0e14b8bb525c47e072de28c6dcf3f65148cc21f6

If the string you get shows any difference, then something went wrong during the download.

Edit:
The songs name is "Drink a pint of blood a day". The band is called Milhaven, they release all their music for free on the internet.

Quote from Kid222 :

I have problem with HQ version. I've installed codecs from first post, but everytime i try to launch video, every program crashes.
Any ideas please?

Thats strange, the codec worked fine for me with Windows Media Player 9, not even a reboot was required. Which video player(s) did you try?

Well maybe it was not such a great idea to use Theora, which is still a "work in progress" codec. I'll make another HQ upload using the XVid Codec (this will take a little while though)
