Hello,

My friend said he saw some server with a track (city track I think) that was all open no walls blocking paths around the city and so on. The server name was something like "COAST the city"

Anyways just wondering if there is anything like that? If so where could I download it to run on my own server?

Thanks For The help

Hello all,

I was reading about LFS tweak on the forum and wanted to download it to mess around with it offline. I did I search on yahoo.com but did end up finding a link for it.

If anybody knows a link to download could you please post it if you get a chance.

Thanks

Quote from frokki :Lack of FPS. I'm sorry for not being clear enough!

OT: @ bryanviper, sound effects on websites won't do any favours for business, it was more like a 90's thing

Maybe music and such was the 90s but to have that little sound when you click the links is actually still being done. To tell you the truth everybody that has seen my site has only had positive comments to say.

So based on that I think they are fine there, I trust the judgment of my web design guy.

Thanks

Quote from KurtG85 :Im on a laptop which I am constantly struggling to keep my fps above 20 fps on.
What is the best way to get the most for your money when buying a pc? Is it best to 'build' one yourself? Can anyone do that or do you have to know alot about computers to fit it all together?
I've been dreading blowing 1,000 bucks on a pc for years and years (because im cheap) but I might force myself to do it soon if I can find out some concrete information on the cheapest way to go about it. I also dont know about what kind of 'parts' to get. I don't need top of the line at all (I dont care about graphics, just need smooth gameplay) but I also dont want to buy something that I will have to spend 200 dollars on in 6 months in order to play the newest games at all. So I need to know what 'parts' have the best long term value. Anyone have any good info on this? I've been asking around occasionally on this for like a year now in various places but I tend to just get half assed responses which get me nowhere.

I you need help choosing parts for a good computer PM me and I can put something quick together to give you an idea.

Also you can check out my Website (in my Sig) I got some systems there I put together that will give you an idea of what parts are god and so on (since I use quality brand name parts) also keep in mind those are Canadian Prices on my website so it would be cheaper when converted to American $$

Quote from Cr!t!calDrift :1. I am not running vista, I am just Vista capable, please read more thoroughly
2. I used to open up my old desktop and make sure the disk drives were clean and whatnot, but that's about it for hardware. I am good with software though



What do you mean by strutter? Sorry .


Anyone find those Acer updates? My computer never used to be like this I ran Avast! and SUPERAntiSpyware and came up with nothing. Although, I have managed to run it fairly smoother, with less freeze ups, nearly none, except it freezes every time i get a pop-up (such as MSN) unlike how it used to be fine

i got a link for acer laptop updates, if you PM me i can send you the link (i got it on my other computer and im on my laptop right now not by my desktop)

Quote from andy29 :"/usemaster=yes"?

Also is the firewall on the laptop (if there is one) blocking the program? If it's Windows XP and you are using the built in one, look in Control Panel > Windows Firewall > Exceptions and add lfs.exe to the list. I don't know if WF does block it but make sure

That option is set to Yes,

As for the firewall I'm running Crappy Vista but I disabled the Firewall and my Antivirus does not have a firewall either.

I'm currently not using wireless hooked up with a Cat5 network cable.

Keep in mine even if I use the Dedicated Hosting program OR choose Dedicated host in the full game my server still wont show up for some reason.

Thanks
Cant Host Dedicated?

Just bought a new laptop & I want to host on it. I can host a non-Dedicated server and it works. But as soon as I try to host a Dedicated server it does not come up on the Master LFS List.

I can join it if I connect by my network ip to the server but not the Master list.

I am using a router and everything is setup correctly especially since non-dedicated works but I also need to join the server from my other computer which cant be done unless I host dedicated.

Thanks

ok I tried the dediecated server, But I cant see my server on the Master List. I can connect to it through my network by using its network ip but thats all.

Keep in mind I have forwarded ports for the correct computer and everything. Just does not make sense to me.

Thanks

Quote from Leifde :Use the dedicated server program instead of the full LFS. It should be on the main LFS site somewhere.

Well when I choose Dedicated (using full client software) my server wont show up on the List.

But i'll try the dedicated hosting client hopefully it works

Hello all,

I just got a laptop and i setup a Internet server on the laptop. (unlocked S2 on it and so on)

Now I try to join MY server it tells me user name is already online and wont let me join. Same thing happens when I try to connect by my network ip address.

Is they some kinda of security feature that they just forgot to make a work around if people do what I'm doing (hosting and playing on a different computer)?

Thanks

Seems that changing the Port that I use for hosting fixed the problem

Quote from MadCatX :You might try to set up a dedicated host and connect to your own server by entering IP 127.0.0.1 in connection screen. Maybe it'll help...

I'll give it a try later tonight,

Anybody else got any suggestions??

Thanks
Hosting Problem

I have attached a picture so you can see exactly what it says. Basically I'll startup a Internet server. People can join because I have friends I regularly race with that join without problems,

but as you can see from the picture it says New guest timed out & Avoiding Buffer crash etc. I'm just wondering why thats happening and how to fix it?

I'm Using a linksys router but I got the ports forwarded and it works since people can join. I got the latest version of LFS that just came out, WinXp Pro Sp2, DSL 5mb

Thanks

P.S. here is the picture...I knew I forgot something lol

Quote from XCNuse :a 1.6 GHz P4????
is there even such thing??

seems a bit slow for a P4, P4s are usually around 3 GHz

mess with your LOD settings ingame, remember that the LOD settings did change in this patch, so you need to lower them

P4's are around 3ghz?? Where have you been? The first P4's that came out was around 1.4ghz if I'm not mistaken.

of course you could just install lfs on your sistes comp and test it and see for yourself then delete it if it runs slower.... But if the specs above are correct then your laptop would be faster.

Quote from Stang70Fastback :Email to Logitech: Yea - my reverse gear hasn't worked since I got it (Christmas) can I have a replacement please?

Logitech's Standard Response: Did you check the game settings?

My Reply: Yea - I know it's a hardware problem cause it works if I hold the shifter a certain way.

Logitech's Answer: Glad to have resolved the problem!

WTF?! lol... guess I'll have to try again.

LOLOLOL wow..... Give them a call and tell them your problem. Last time I had to call for one of my clients about a speaker system they had they sent us a whole new speaker system better then he had.

I love logitech! Great support last time i used them.
