Quote from Tweaker :

Now that you can put these marshall points on normal tracks, I'd imagine people making layouts to prevent people from cutting in online racing.

Now I think this could be the next step to a simple flag system. Rather than having it auto-punt them to spectate, in some cases you'd probably just want to give the person a black flag / stop-go penalty by having them pit. Could there be an option on what the action is? (Spectate or Pit Penalty).

It can all be very useful for typical track racing, I just think if players were forced to spectate in certain situations might ruin the nature of a race. And depending on the severity of the location where a person cuts, you can have it give the person a pit-penalty, or if it is dangerous for other racers, and insta-spectate is useful .

would you like to get a pit-penalty if somebody hits you and you "cut" the track?

well "no mid-race join" would have solved this in my case, but i don't want to enforce this, the only thing we need is people who THINK before they enter the track and who THINK while driving and i mean everybody...

but that is an utopian thought...

one remark: I do agree that if a person in the race is lapped then he does not have to jump off the track, but if the person joined on lap 3 out of 5, then he should...

It happened to me few days ago, that we were having a great race for the 1. place, I was about 0.8s behind the leader and was gaining on him (reverse startgrid), and then on the 3rd lap when we are in the middle of the track (we1r) someone joins, goes his pace and then just approaching the "no-look fast chicane" this guy lets the leader pass and then enters the chicane, driving slowly, blocking me off and effectively ending the race for me

Then after the race i asked the guy for an apology and he didn't even care > one nice kick for him...

to bump this bug, it happened yesterday to one of the drivers in the Czech LFS League... he was in the pits when the race leader finished the race and "bing" he was spectating the race, with the message "xxxxxx did not finish" flashing on the screen... Pretty annoying way to lose points in a league...

Quote from gingerman87 :

hey im fairly new to LFS and i dont know what trailbraking is, you mentioned it in the last post...

wee frase

EDIT: 2 posts previous...

approaching a corner you hit your brakes and then when starting to turn in, you slowly (gradually) let off the brakes. not "no braking" at once and coasting to the apex, but smoothly letting the brake go, all the way to the apex...

Quote from ajp71 :

Doesn't it require an unlock everytime you do that?

A simple solution would be to just rename the LFS exe when you've finished with it and then rename it back when you want to use it.

i don't think so... waht you mean is the possibility to lock LFS again, i'm speaking of deleting the gamepassword from the respective field...

Quote from Rooble :

Ill code some elite uncrackable locking tool for LFS! Im sure that will keep the verim off!

or you can just delete your gamepassword from the appropiate field in lfs and your bro will not be able to get online (only in the demo)...

I think demo users can upload hotlaps for the demo combos only and the ingame nick must be equal to the account name...

Edit> jump three times and you are beaten

Quote from Jakg :

you can set up profiles in the nVidia options...

have you read what i wrote in my 2nd post? that i know this?

am i not speaking english or what?

i wrote that i don't need this, that there are other people, who don't know anything about a profile, then i said that i wrote this improvement on behalf of someone who can't speak english and still you don't understand...

is it me or ??

very high possibility that you have a virus...

Quote from wheel4hummer :

1. You can install a video card, but you can't configure it?
2. Then use ATI Tray tools.
3. Then why do you want options for AA or AF?

1. I can
2. I have a GeForce card
3. I posted for someone who can't speak english

Quote from Cue-Ball :

A little OT, but do most people schedule races using local time or using GMT or similar? Perhaps showing both local and GMT would be better?

i guess national leagues> local time
international ones> UTC would be best...

well i know, but
1. there are people who don't know there is this possibility
2. there are people with ATI cards (dunno how its done there)
3. its not for me, because when I turn AA or AF on i get about 3-6 fps... (except in very old games, ie quake 2)

Tried searching, but too many results for AA & AF... or i can't find the right keywords...

Pls make the Antialiasing and Anisotropic filtering selectable from an ingame menu... It's a pain for those with more powerful graphics card to manually switch those on/off for LFS only (other latest games need this off to run smoothly)

now i know how to reproduce it!

if i turn on my computer, run lfs, play any replay, the lfsnicks don't show when pressing ctrl+shift, but if i do get in a game afterwards/first and then select replays, it works...

even when i quit lfs and start it again the ctrl+shift works... the only time it does not work is when playing a replay is the first thing to do in lfs...

just a small one Scawen, please could you shorten the /spectate command to /spec ? sometimes it just takes too long to type (and the more letters, the higher the probability of a typo) and this decides wheter a wrecker hits his target or not...

BIG BOLD RED works best...
i admin the 1st Czech LFS League and i too had been put up to this... now i have made a sticky locked thread with all the important info and a second thread where people can discuss things... works flawlessly...

Quote from The Very End :

I have not read all sites, so sorry if this has been asked before, but -
After install the new patch, I can`t get my automatically gearing to work.
Everything is like before the new patch, I choose in game (shift+g) autoshit - on, and in option aswell.

But, nothing happens. It just don`t gear up, or down no mather what, and a BF1 car with one gear kind of screws your ears :S

Anyone else getting this problem, or only me that got it?

Rest of wheel / pedals and buttons work as normal, only the gearing that don`t seems to work right :/

Quote from BurnOut69 :

Well I installed it, recalibrated axis and re-set buttons. Car gets revd to the max as soon as it appears but it wont move. Dont know what Im doing wrong, I attached a pic which shows tach at max, 6th gear but still 0 km/h

check your clutch settings... i got the clutch set to axis with the U10 patch and it was always engaged... set it back to button...
