65 pages and no update.

I'm just trying to figure out why did they make an update system if there isn't any update anymore.

And the thing gets interesting. (about the greek thing above :schwitz

Wait until I set my PB's driving after a bottle of Johnnie Walker, then you can release the new tyre physics, Scawen. - Because I did almost everything in this game except this AND playing while... "doing"..


Btw I brought S1/S2 to help you to continue the progress and pass the Z28. It was a year ago, but hell I don't really care. It's always the same story: LFS gets boring, then I try another Sim, then I realize how awesome LFS is, especially when it's compared to any other Sims that I can play only with a mouse and a keyboard... And then, here I am, back to LFS doing my old drink and drive challenge. (Yeah I'm still trying, but now offline.. i really dont understand why some ppl gets annoyed about drunk drivers in LFS! somehow they take it too seriously :shrug

And before you ask: why I drink and play LFS? Because If i do this IRL i'd spill my drink... duh! ":/
Also I can't get my S2 License suspended for DUI , even in cruise servers... I mean, if it takes that long to release an interior, i couldn't expect for this anytime soon. (it was a joke, don't kill me guys)
and yeah this is the most off-topic post ever in this thread

btw, i know this is really (*reeeaaalllyyy*) OT, but looking at lower advertising on your Messenger, where it says "DVD GRATIS", it stands for "FREE DVD" in portuguese... Why whould Microsoft use ads keywords in portuguese in other languages' Messenger?

are they that dumb?

ROFL

Quote from zeugnimod :

I guess we might see a sudden decrease in wrecking as well.

Yeah, and/or probly a bunch of "SM Servers" instead of "Destruction Derbys" ones...:uglyhamme

Quote from Luke.S :

For all we know VW could have asked the devs if they want to put the scirocco R into LFS aswell. So that could be what is holding up development time.

It could explain everything.

But I'm still calling the game as LIVE FOR WAITING...

Even seeing LFS at its deadline, the price i paid for LFS was the best money ever spent this year. (believe me: i've got drunk several time this year)
I bought mine in March or April (i can't remember lol) and the only thing i regret is waited almost three years to buy my license.


don't think twice, just buy it.

---
just don't buy it thinking that it will help devs to release VWS soon, cause it won't happen anyway.

Quote from Aid :

whats speaker feedbacks? are we talking about the same thing? i have a feeling we don't. i don't know... what i know mic fb has similar symptoms because i had it in the past.. why only lfs? i don't know... maybe its a bug? or maybe it happend when there is constant loud sound for enough time for fb to build up tried another racing sims? i'm only guessing can't tell u 100% however that would be 1st thing i would check.. and i would check it few times to be sure, what really is causing it? i don't know

Sorry, I was taking about "Loudness Equalization" setting under Optimizations tab.
It's checked here, could be it. I'll uncheck it, test and report. Thanks.



@dougie-lampkin:
Can you check if it is checked there too?

(/me ashamed?)

Quote from Aid :

sound like typical microphone feedback... also u can try to gradualy decrease directx audio acceleration..

so why does it only affects LFS?
even if all feedbacks are off, even the speaker feedbacks, it's still happening?

Quote from dougie-lampkin :

For me, it can happen at any time, it can't be reproduced at will. I could be sitting in the pits with the engine running, or I could be out racing. It's only LFS it happens in though, and only in the test patches.

Exactely, is happens at any time and seems to be related to low fps rate, or at least can cause it. Actually I don't know if it slows down LFS in any way. It sounds like "reverbation over reverbation", or "sound stream over sound stream", i can't explain. And at some point the sound gets louder and louder and louder and then it seems like LFS restarts the sound engine. A hick up happens in the game, and the sound gets lower, also I get better framerates, before it starts again...

All I can see is that it could be related to some model of Realtek HD chipsets, and probably is related to low fps, since my laptop has a Intel G965 onboard video chipset and I get around 25~45fps at 1280x800 (my guess, i can't remember).


Well. Its a real known issue for now on.

Quote from Feffe85 :

yeah it must be.. as i have REALTEK audio thingie here :/
damn shit..

It's now proven: IT IS Realtek related bug.

that's bcause Scawen's playing LFS offline day and night :S

Quote from Feffe85 :

i tried with the default engine sounds, and still get the same thing. tho it takes longer to produce, and its quite annoying when out of gas and trying to get to the pits :P

Here the same. I suppose it is Realtek HD driver related issue, it isn't?
as I run LFS on my Sony Vaio Laptop.
