OMG If one of you guys answering those stupid shit had read this document... I am absolutely not involved in anything with Cruise and never was on one of this servers but it ashamed me to read many posts the last year and now I am REALLY disappointed of the stupidness of many people here.
What the hell does it concern to you if many people drive on cruise mod servers in your beloved LFS super realistic racing game. It should be valueless for all minimum intelligent persons.
I know this post isn't friendly and I don't care about your opinion I think it's understandable why this makes my aggressive.

It's easier. Give the ai a worse car and use a better one :-D
Or do it with setups if it doesn't work with cars. I don't remember but I think I cheated like this

Not again guys...
Also with more money the devs can't work more so stop those annoying discussions and wait for new content like everyone else does.

Threads with this bug are appearing in a regular intervall since ages :-D. The position system of LFS also isn't very good. Some time ago while I was developing Live for Stats I had to do many work arounds to have a more or less correct calculation.
Supporting XInput besides DirectInput
Hi Scawen, I bought a XBox 360 Controller yesterday. It uses the XInput API instead of DirectInput. I don´t think it would be a big deal to implement it. I don´t know how many controllers there are which uses only this API or both of them.
Here is a nice page from Microsoft showing how both can work together: http://www.lfsforum.net/showthread.php?t=4141
I know there was an old thread here: http://www.lfsforum.net/showthread.php?t=4141 And please don´t spam this thread with messages like there is an unoffical driver XBCD. I know it and use it at the moment. But I don't want to use unofficial drivers there are everytime some sort of problems.
So please Scawen answer if you decide to implement it or not. For me the XBox Controller is the only one that can really been used for racing because of the analog wings. There are only a few working on Windows and most of them are crap.
I don´t have the place for a big wheel and also I don´t want to have one.
EDIT:
To be more exact. The gamepad works, so maybe LFS has XInput support. The only problem is ForceFeedback/ Rumble Effect which doesn´t work. Maybe thats the only thing XInput does I didn´t look at it exactly.

My last status is that Scawen plan to switch to dx9 (or then dx10 who knows) in development progress of s3 because of big graphic changes for rain and those effects.
I am to lazy to search for the post he made

Everytime the same "bla bla bla" (Sorry for those sort of words). You can NEVER feel friving on PC like driving in a (race)car. So a racing simulation has many limits. Driving a car makes much fun because of many parameters. You cannot have many of them in front of your computer. Because of that you have to lower one's sights. One of those is the a way to fast overheating clutch. If I drive in a normal way (ok keyboard) and have manual shifting enabled I overheat it. Whats that. Fun? No for me. I only wanted to write my arguments but I won´t come back to this topic because discussing those points with this community is only frustration.
@Fordman
Good post. I support you on every point!
So many people are crying for realism and flaming on every little "arcade thing". Scawen support them too much in some points in the past. We will have to see what the future brings. The clutch will be alleviated before the final patch comes out. I´m sure
.
I hope fun comes back and will never die.

Possibly a Bug:
I have two operating systems (XP 32bit and Vista 64bit). I think I unlocked LFS in the last version one time for both of them, but I´m not 100% sure.
I extracted and unlocked LFS from XP and switched to Vista after some time. I had to unlock it again but I didn´t think too much about
Now I´m back in XP and it´s locked again :-( Is this expected?
And please give me one more unlock. If you think thats not the place to request then ignore it and I will wait until next week.
Some more notes on this:
- I had Vista 32bit some weeks ago I´m now relativly sure that I unlocked there and not later on 54bit.
- The partitions are mounted under changed paths. That is not my "fault" it happened automatically (but was very good because I have a c: partition on both what is needed for some bad written programs). This only because it could be the reason.

Its already known since ages and you can be sure that the devs have it or know how they can get it if they want.
The existence isn´t so bad for them as you might think.
It´s like with every common program. Winrar, 3d Studio Max... weren´t what they are if there weren´t the possibilitie of cracking and using it.

Mhm no AI pitting inside a race? :-( I read this from his words
With such a discussion you take the devs every fun of working on the project away...
I want to announce that I started a new version some weeks ago but I only spend some hours here and there. I read about a new discussion about an XML file from other programs in the forum. If someone is interested that I use it please contact me or write in this thread 
My program weren´t used too much in the last version I don´t know why but that was not really a problem for me and it won´t be in the next version also becauseI try many new things and it is a helpful project for me. For anyone who maybe want to help me or is interested here are some facts of the nearly totaly rewritten propgram live for stats 2 (Most things are only started but I thought over them enough that I can say they will be come
must have
- everything that was in live for stats 1
- use of InSimv4 with tcp and udp
- more then one instance running (for servers and maybe capturing the race with changed settings)
- a multi platform program it can be compiled on any of them (I want to provide binarys for windows and linux)
- open source again
- a gui (graphical user interface)
- based on qt 4.3 (http://www.trolltech.com)
- it uses some "new techniques" like many threads (get tcp data, get udp data, process the packets, upload to ftp, gui)
planned
- a console version also on every platform and changing as less as possible to the guio version (good OOP)
(far) wishes
- live race tracking
- some race information (low fuel warning...)
- race html export
Thats all for now. If someone wants to get the "old" lfsReport (PHP script to generate a html page out of a XML race file) and further work on it or want to help me working on classes for live for stats 2, you are welcome. I´m not an "only-work-alone-person"
If there are more news I start a new thread for live for stats 2

If I read such a post it´s obvious for ME that this person has many problems to control their own mind and this knowledge surprised me to get from you
Also I think of one more rank reading this (if we let S3 out):
Banned for X Days...!
Oh oh, so much blabla here....
Can you guys be quiet? What you try to discuss has no end. Muhaa don´t understand that he should shut up after the mistake he did and Becky should know it better...
This was a nice thread where we discussed something else and again thats a flaming thread from two sides.

Sure it is. If I develope a program I´m proud of it. Why not. If I find a very hard bug it´s the same.
With software from other deveolpers where you don´t know the source code it´s a much bigger challenge and you could be proud if you find a fix or a exploid but the question is what you do with those information... Spend your energy to the good or bad side

@SamH
now you cut my post out of a context. I don´t wrote from exploiting beeing business. I mean that a company has to take much time to fix security issues. But right at least both are the same

I don´t understand what you try to say me with your post. But i doubt it answers the reason of mine.
What I wrote ist that Microsoft & co have to spend many time on patching security and other issues and THIS is business (the way it´s going everywhere). In the example of LFS it is shown heavier because of only one programmer.
That´s not the thread to discuss this, because Scawen have to ignore more, for him unnecessary posts *gg*

Software Exploits discussion
That´s business...
Ask Microsoft & co. We cannot think of where they were if there were no people releasing exploits and they have to fix it as fast as possible. Maybe we had Vista 3 on our computers and nobody would know Linux :-P

You don´t need much luck for this.
Try it if you full drive in those tyres. I had it often enough that you come through without a serious crash

The game crashed but NO it is not a bug in this game
Every program or game has to handle also critical situations. If it was a server crash S2 can suddenly loose connection to the race but a crash is everytime very bad.

Let them. Most times the only reason are tristan and thenameistaken. It seems they have nothing else to do. Cause they ever attack hard and post allegations without arguments they find really fast many copycats :-D
I won´t say everything they say have no ground, but the kind they write it is what I complain. Some things a author should only think for himselv.

The only thing I totally don´t understand why the devs don´t write a statement to the buffer overlow to the forum and the website and better also per E-Mail to warn every user.
Many are clever enough, but there are also many don´t know this leck and aren´t carefull and other who open every trojaner and worm in attachments of an E-Mail
Here are some very critical bugs have to be fixed and every of them weren´t commented by them
1. Buffer overlow in many file types of LFS which often will be shared
2. Heaviest cheating I ever read in LFS
Much faster driving and also beaming of a car.
3. Drive through penalty bug
There are two more you see in allowed car List and change names but which aren´t really critical.
I know every bad reputation isn´t good. But here the devs have to show how professional they are and that means handle such a problem offensive and public (transparent) way besides fix the bugs fast what they do I think.
