Quote from BlakjeKaas :His point is that he probably cheats.

He drove 25 megameters today and only used 23 liters of fuel.

His time on blackwood is 2,5 seconds.

Let's assume he did do 25000 km in one day.
That would mean an average of OVER(!) 1000km/h
Do you see my point? (or his point)

He could have used some tweak tool and set up a practice host for himself, without incurring in any serious cheating, couldn't he?

Quote from ard50 :I did that but after the first lap it wouldn't trip the lap time when I crossed the finish line.

You must have missed a checkpoint. Try to erase it and replace it somewhere clear from obstacles.

Quote from ard50 :I'm looking to make an FSAE Endurance style track. It's autocross like in that it's made of cones but it's multiple laps.

Is there a way to make an autocross course that you can take for multiple laps and have the times recorded?

Yes. You just need to set checkpoints and a start/finish marker.

13 SC. Thilo to try and contextualize the use of 'potato' in a joking situation, but it will sound just like a half-baked scietific argument at the beginning of the transmission.

Oooh, what a comprehensible list. That will definitely stop people from asking for specific setups.

Quote from AstroBoy :Most times the race has 20 million saftey cars :P
Id also like to detest the penalty received as the rule states "2. All skins must also contain all elements required by the published skin kit." Which my skin does! Decal placement is never mentioned and can be open to interpretation.
Regardless i didnt make it but that is still absolute crap and you know it!

I think you meant to say 'protest' the punishment.

Quote from CSF :that's mainly been because they have not been able to identify a 10 until they signed Kagawa, so have resorted to playing Rooney there.

Some people would say he's at his best playing in that role...

Marco's always pissed when he doesn't win. He's like Hamilton but crap.

Quote from Tinytacohead :Sweet - thanks for the answers, but now I guess that leads to one more.. :o does that mean when somebody else see's a new/my skin, they see it in 512? (tho it was uploaded in say 1024)

In 99.99% of the cases, yes. Car/Helmet skins can be uploaded to LFSW in upto 1024/512 pixels, respectively, and are then compressed to 512/256. There is an option under the Misc menu in the Options that allows you to select whether you'd like to download the skins in their original or reduced sizes, or if at all, but to download the skins in their original sizes, you need to add credits to your LFSW account. £1 would entitle you to 2,000 downloads of 1024px car skins, for instance, but I don't think anyone uses it these days. In fact, you can find many skins in much higher quality (usually 2048px) on the forums and team sites, for free.

Don't interfer with my helpful answers, Silver. :P

Quote from Tinytacohead :Which I guess answers/leads to question #2.. when the game auto-downloads other players skins, do they go in the main skins dir? I've always just assumed they went to a different folder where they were automatically put into some type of compressed format. (as this is how a flightsim I play handles custom maps, when one plays an online room with a scenery they've never flown)

They go into a different folder, but are not compressed as such, they are merely downloaded at lower resolutions (512px), while still keeping the original names and .jpg extension, so, in practice, you could transfer all the skins you've downloaded to your main skin folder and race with them yourself, as long as you didn't change their names. Although you'd probably want to give berth to several moral and graphical questions that would arise from that, as you'd basically be pirating and your skins would look shite.

Quote from Tinytacohead :I'm sure this is a dumb question, but I was wondering if removal of skins that came with LFS would cause issue.. as in will I still see them during online play, if somebody were to use one I've removed? I'm guessing yes, but wanted to be sure before removal from my skins folder...

In principle, no. To see other players' skins you must download them to your machine - like you do when you download LFS the first time for the default skinpack or through LSFW for custom skins if you're S2.

However, considering the intricacies of the human mind, I would guess someone, somewhere, has had the default skins uploaded to LFSW with their original names, so, it's possible that they'd be downloaded again if someone was using them to race online, which obviously negates the effort of erasing them in the first place!

Quote from xtraction :dont know if its because of summer.. but its never pitch black in the UK anymore.. it always feels about 9o'clock when its 2am :|

That's because of the urban lighting. Although the more you are up north, the more likely you are to experience permanent dusk during summer (tho it should only happen if you're on latitudes higher than Aberdeen, for instance).

Maybe it's a little late for this, but you really should enforce the SC speed during the race. If SC speed is 130 kmph, it is 130. It's not 150 and, definitely, it isn't 100. Brake-testing cars behind during SC periods, like it happened pretty much everytime we had a yellow, at least in the 3 sessions I raced in, should be penalized.
