It depends heavily what you want. I use Winamp, Foobar2000 and Deliplayer2.

Foobar is simpler than winamp (imho), but i don't really find Winamp harder to use or any slower which some people claim. If you want to make plugins, skip foobar and use Winamp (foobar plugin instructions are total mess compared to winamp). Playlists in winamp are very good and if you emphasize that feature I would go after Winamp.

If you want to play lot of different formats, especially old formats, Deliplayer2 must be the best. For example it plays all kind of old Amiga formats used in games

EDIT: That's for music, I use different programs for video (like VLC Media player).

I drove that kind of lada 10 years ago (not my car :schwitz. I cannot remember that the gear map would have been in any way unusual.

I do remember that the only thing that worked flawlesly was the horn

Quote from lawdog :
I actually have an MPR called %$#&INGCAT.MPR (only not censored), in which I had a sure second place finish ruined by him. I'm thinking of reporting him to the Wrecker Barricade.

Your cat has a license!?

Cute cat. My cat used to sit on my keyboard sometimes, but it didn't show any interest to what i was doing (trying to do).

Quote from Leprekaun :There is one which I just found last night . Its good fun . Its one of those games where you roam around in cities, go race with other online users, buy parts, join crews, etc. Its called DriftCity. Check it out!

Looks, sounds and feels like Outrun...with a multiplayer option.

Except in the '80s it took 458kB, not 458MB.

Quote from LFSn00b :Couldn't find a better song, if you don't want eurobeat in it...

Maybe "Out of Touch" (by Hall and Oats) would have been more suitable?

Don't care even if you are new. It doesn't hurt trying to learn. Remember that nobody is master from birth.

In 15-20 years ago I played with trackers (tracker song players/editors). I even tryed to compose some simple tunes. Usually the first step was to investigate some ready made songs how they are made. You played the songs with only 1 channel on first and learned how it played with only e.g drums, then tryed other channels (eg. keys channel, vocal channels etc).

Sidenote: The tracker songs are not totally dead. The best tracker songs are very good (e.g IT and XM mods) and Winamp plays almost all of them. Besides they are much smaller than mp3s often. For example one good techno/dance mod (IT tracker) I have has 38 channels is 4:20 long and only 900kB is size.

So go for it. Experiment and learn

Cats are nice. You need good humour with them and they do not try to lick your a** like dogs. Instead they think your job is to serve them. But they do show affection to you if they think you deserve it

I had a list of famous cat haters and cat lovers in some book. The hater list was full of dictators and other lunatics. The cat lovers were usually intellectuals. No wonder really. My cat got really hurt when you tried to control its behaviour to your liking (e.g lifted it away from your chair where you wanted to sit).

Oh thank god. Finally. I thought nobody gets it.

Hey, this cannot be that hard.

- 2 figures on the left make the band name. Think what each of them are, especially compared to each other (kind of more 'civilized' synonyms)
- figure on the right is the song name. It is not really what he is doing, but rather what he suggests or orders to do. The exact figure kind of underlines it.

When you know the answer the clues should be quite easy to understand. I thought it would be otherway too.

Nope. Wrong way.

I'm not quite sure exactly what music class this belongs to, but it might be I didn't exactly follow all the rules. Let's just still say it's pop and fits the rules and it does have proper words.

I saw the music video years ago in MTV. Interesting and very different from the usual videos.

I see. Never heard bobo in that use.

More hints.
- 2 of the figures make the band name, 1 make the song. Guess which make which.
- song from early this decade (iirc)

(I guess Beano must be away :tilt

No. (interesting, but where do you see dj bobo? )

Maybe I have to give the first hint. Maybe some of you have understood there are lot of details, but they are not important. Try to think what each of the figures are (their basic features) or what they try to say. Rethink from that. (same in english: forget the details!)

Yep. I made a prog which auto-rotates combos and I missed that thing too. I put the list clearing only after somebody mensioned it to me. So you are not the only one

Quote from BBO@BSR :Mine will have something like that on it:

Hmmmm... (let's see if I can still read those)... So you have an error from the processor, saying it cannot recognise the value in the code register to be a legal command.

Beano is very good in this (I thought they were sports commentators)

Assuming the other one is correct too, I post this...

I think if you empty the racer list (the start grid) in the entry screen and then try to enter with a wrong car it forces you to choose a correct type. So after you have typed that /car command, type /clear (iirc), to clear the list.

You cannot get all laps into XML file currently (although the required information is there so it would simple to add). The best times XML file is for the best split and lap times for each player (and for each car) ever visited the server (offline is like a single player server).

You can get all your laps done during that 'stint', by typing !laps. It displays all splits and lap times for each lap. It also displays the pit stop duration and reason. If some time is in red it is the best for that race/stint. If it is yellow, it is your personal best for that race/stint. You should do this before restarting or going to car setup (they clear the lap stats because they also reset the lap number back to 1).

Another way to see consistency is to type !stats and checking the best lap, theoretical best lap and average lap time, and compare them.

Quote from Avatar13 :just did a test again and I got it to work. I guess I didn't type the proper command to close vcom before exiting LFS? not sure but this time it did record for me. Thanks a lot again for your patience and help in getting this newbie up to speed on your great program!

In the setup there is a line like this: best_laps_save_interval
Put there something over 0, or it does not the save best lap XML file. By default it is 20 (20 mins). You can put smaller. Especially in offline use it can be much smaller. It is the interval how often it automatically saves it.

It should also save it when you nicely end vcom (i.e. pressing ESC or typing the end command).

Even if it wouldn't save it your lap times are still safe in the log file.

Quote from Avatar13 :That seemed to do the trick! Now for the next stupid question... you knew that was coming, didn't you.

I see that a .log file was created in my log folder. Opening it up just shows unreadable characters and my name. No other file was created. How do I now use this file to see my various times? Thanks again for your patience with me on this!

Well, how about looking into the /out directory? Double click the xml files (should open into a browser and look like a web page).

I guess I could have said here RTFM(read the fine manual)

Quote from Avatar13 :More info for ya. I was able to get things to somewhat work. After typing in the port within LFS I get:

Insim-UDP: No Slots Available and then:

Insim-UDP: Already Received ISI

and this last line just keeps repeating endlessly. I tab out to the Dos box and see the same old thing with Vcom saying it's waiting for LFS...


Any new ideas with this info? Thanks!

Yes. I get the same messages if I intentionally fool the settings so that I try to connect LFS at 192.168.0.2 and put vcom listen interface 127.0.0.1 (in the setup)

To fix that the interfaces would need to be both 192.168.0.2 (or what ever address you have).
