Quote from Chaos :
BBO>..and I will not comment the 2nd part of your post... i guess you don't know me and all the things i've done (and will do) in the LFS world...

Well I think you mean that 2nd part:
Quote from BBO@BSR :...
Tbh you should really think about your attitude.
Sorry to say that but I don't think you are THE special LFS driver and deserve more or better treatment then someone else...

It was just an answer to this (I found that argumentation really illepall, sry):
Quote from Chaos :..why could not someone get special treatment? you see that in your life on almost every step...

For me this part of your post sounds like you think just because you see that in life everywhere, it's right. But I think it's not. If someone is thinking this way then he has a strange attitude for me and should think about it.

Anyway it's just my opinion and it was meant as a cause for thought.

But you are right I don't now you good enough nor have I heard enough about you but good that you do something for the LFS community like many many others do and did also (me including). I respect that. (but that doesn't make someone special or should let someone think he is worth more then others or deserve a special treatment).

Quote from Jakg :just fyi, one particular group of drivers ARE given special treatment, namely the league drivers who, on request, can be given a platinum license so they can continue to partake in the events, ...

I know that (and it's understandable) but it has not really to do with earning the status thing for a normal driver.
It wouldn't make sense if the STCC league drivers can't take part in the league races just because the STCC entry system has changed and they have no license, wouldn't it.

Quote from Chaos :time... i'm full-time employed, study a university, starting my own enterprise and i'm organising the 1. Czech LFS League... ...

That's good for you
but it looks like you never learned this: You can't have it all.
It's called life.

Quote from Chaos :

Tbh you should really think about your attitude.
Sorry to say that but I don't think you are THE special LFS driver and deserve more or better treatment then someone else.

And on the other side the whole idea of the STCC would be senseless.
If 1 driver would not be treated like the other, then the fun for all the others (and it looks like a lot of people next to you have fun doing it), would be taken away.

Quote from Chaos :
BBO> i didn't say i did not have time to race, what i said is that i don't want to waste the little time i have for LFS with some boring races just to be able to drive the XRT in distant future...

Well then I misunderstood that:
Quote from Chaos :which is what i would love to do, but don't have the time for it... so thank you for frustrating me seeing the TBO server but not being able to race there...:ashamed:



Anyway I still don't really understand your arguments.
Everyone (or the really fast guys) has to do the same "boring" things.
It takes some time, true but no one (fast or not) should get a special treatment nor should the system be changed for him.

So you got the self esteem to write here you are so fast bla bla evrytime 1st place etc.
Instead of complaining about the lack of motivation it gives you,
why not surprise everyone (the others) by doing the stages as fast as possible (boring or not).

The faster you are the less time you need for the "boring status stages" and you'll be quicker in Silver, Gold etc status.
Then you meet the other fast guys ealier and you got "not so boring" races anymore.
;-)

Quote from al heeley :there are plenty of LFS servers available that let you race the XRT. Your argument is nonsense, ...

Totally agree.
I also have not much time lately but it took me 38 races and 2 evenings to get my silver and around 53 races and 7 evenings to reach the gold status.

@Chaos
If you say you don't have time for it, then you can't race.
It's as simple as that.
but I would say if you are such a fast driver,
I'm sure you'll do it (reach the status you want) much quicker then the average guys.

Quote from KMSpeed :There are already some real cars (RA,MRT,BF1).
...you probably mean some others too like Ferrari, Porsche, Subaru WRC etc.

Apart from the looks, I don't think real cars will add anything extra to the gameplay of LFS. I don't mind if someone adds them but they just don't excite me to REALLY want them in LFS.

Real tracks would be fun though. (Spa, Monza, Indianapolis, etc)


I couldn't say it any better.

I bought this one a while ago:

Logitech® Force™ 3D Pro

it was "cheap (~50 Euros IIRC)" and uses the same profiler-software then the Logitech wheels.
The FF is not really great (like on my very old first MS Sidewinder 1) or as good as on wheels but for some games it's enough.

Quote from trackah123 :I'm so happy lol.. i got a real amiga 500 and amiga 1200.
with a special transferkit i can put all of my adf images from PC back onto amiga floppy disks

Great, I did it the other way.
Transfered all my noisetracker,protracker, octalyzer etc. mods from HD and Floppy and thousands of samples from the good old times to my PC some years ago (man that transfer with my selfmade cable took days)

LFS is exactly working like the way you described above - (or I don't understand what you wrote)

When I take over someones car in an endurance race, then I can change F11 (player specific brake balance etc.) and F12 (change fuel, tires etc.) The way I need it for that part of the race.

I voted here in error for Patch V.
Was just checking the new posts to quickly
and didn't checked the Sub-Forum

Sorry

IMO I don't think your idea will work

It's not a big deal to register a fake user, name etc.
Doesn't take long nor would it stop anyone.

We already have the best solution because a real good reason to buy S2 is:
You can get rid of wreckers.
Because they are not tolerated on most of the S2 servers and there is the wrecker barricade etc.

After the lap 1 crash which costed us 7 (of course 7) places, the 5 disconnections, 1 laggy connection which didn't allow 1 of our drivers to race at all, 1 pc freeze, 1 bigger crash, some emergency joining and some pedal problems, resulting in flat spots, we are happy that the race didn't ended with the last place for us.

Anyway it was a nice event

Congratulations to Cyber Racing and all the others who took part

Quote from DANDAMAN05 :track still seems to be down... i hope we arnt racing for nothing here...

At least you can say it was the longest race ever. Because the tracker shows: " Race started on Thursday, January 1st 1970 at 1:00...."

Quote from GP4Flo :Is it possible to get this shirt with the current S2 logo colors, just like this one?

That would also be my choice (if available)
front just the logo (colored) and on the back logo with web (colored).

A T-shirt, whatever, with a monochrome logo looks cheap or selfmade (printer+iron) to me

Quote from AndroidXP :I normally vary between L and XL, depending on how the specific shirt is cut (and on the time of the year ), but I voted for XL, because I rather have it a bit too large than a bit too small.

Same for me.

Usually XL or L. In the last years I noticed L often shrinked to much after washing. No not because I washed them to hot but maybe I didn't bought the best quality, who knows So now I usually look for XL shirts first.

I voted for XL for the same reason Android did. Better to have it too large than too small

Quote from D34N0 :Good Idea I like the Black T-Shirt with the coloured logo it makes it stand out better.

Same here.

and we need LFS socks (then the ESL pro guys don't have to race just with black socks in TV shows anymore )

Quote from MadCatX :Seriously guys, reasons why you want login instead of unlocking are completely personal and have nothing to do with current license system at all. So, please, dont request something that needs complete license code rewriting just because few of you find it useful under some uncommon circumstances.

I totally agree.

btw
I usually test every testpatch and never had problems with unlocks and when something went wrong with the patch, Scawen gave another unlock to everyone.

I only once had a problem in the last 3 years with a new installation and a faulty S-ATA HDD and luckily Victor gave me another unlock.

IMO It works perfect the way it is (and protects us from a lot of stupid cracking kids too)

Quote from mcompton69 :I guess that is simply that if you unlock one game online, you can then do another using same credentials (again, online activation). I suppose this is because the activation server allows 2 different IP address on same account. This is interesting to know but i dont think it will help me.

I also don't think this helps you in any way but afaik: The master server doesn't really care with what IP you unlock the game. It just depends on how many unlocks you still got (on the master server). In any case you can't play online with 2 users using the same account.

Thanks

As far as I know it's not a TEAM league.
It was decided by fastest hotlaps who was in or not.

Quote from sinbad :Certain things, steering lock and brake force for example, are very controller dependant, so the option to adjust those should never be removed whatever else is added (imo).

I can't use exactly the same settings for my MS FF Wheel and my DFP or vice versa. So I totally agree.

About the whole fixed setup idea:
Why not can be fun.

Only problem I see is that then more people don't practise car/tracks in front of league races because they already have then a setup.
(btw I always hate it seeing people start somewhere in a league race and don't have a set or know how much fuel the car needs etc. but that's a totally diff. problem)

Quote from LFSn00b :But congrats BBO!

Thx


Tbh this time I practiced a bit and also worked on a setup.
I was really glad to have such a nice final race, where still 3 people could win the whole Cup but then it was a bit frustrating that so many didn't show up. We waited there 15 minutes for nothing.

In the race it was abit like that I had to fight against my own mistakes. But it worked very well

Anyway thx to all who raced today and to Davo for doing the Admin stuff.
