Hey, sorry for the slow reply, I've been busy with stuff today ...

I'd be more than happy to help you with your project!

SillyProject 15 South Cty is all yours from now until Monday morning.
I'll PM the password to Blaeza on the SillyProject forum.
I can also turn on the kick/ban voting if you want?

Here is my first ever skin. It's based on the Ectype skin I found on this forum.

















It's not the best skin in the world ever, but I like it ...
It looks better in-game, there is some quality loss with the screenshots.

Let me know what you think ...

Ahhh, great, thanks for the update!

There we go, all servers running X12 now ...

Quote from Krammeh :

upgrade to x12....

Ah ha, when did that get released?

Thanks anyway, I'll get that done tonight ...

Ok, thanks for commenting.

So do you have any suggestions on how I could make it better?

I just caught the prick in the act ...

Nope, and I originally got it, and a load of other skins from this very forum ...

There was no mention of it being private! I've seen loads of people using this skin as well.

If you want a skin to be private, you shouldn't post the skin's jpg ...

We're in the middle of making our own team skin anyway, so it won't matter for long ...

Hey everyone ...

I've just made the first video for my team (SPTR - SillyProject Team Racing - www.sillyproject.com)!

This is my first video using the Shift+U camera angles, and also my first time NOT using Windows Movie Maker, lol.

You can watch the video on YouTube here :

Any comments, suggestions or critics are welcome ...

Please let me know what you think ...

In fact as I was typing my last post, my two S2 servers went down, 10 minutes after I'd restarted them ...
The other S2 server that's password protected is still running though.
Here is what's in the deb.log file of one of the crashed ones ...


As you can see, nothing at all ...

Ah ha, that makes for some interesting reading ...

And here was me thinking I had some gay stability problem with my own servers (SillyProject) ...

Over the past week, especially this weekend, I've come find at least half of my LFS servers closed.
This happends at least twice a day, the LFS servers are just not running on the server any more.
All I have to do is click on the shortcut to restart them again, but it's still a huge pain in the ass.
I've looked in the deb.log files and there's nothing suspicious in there ...

Has anybody got any suggestions as to what to do about it?

i have uploaded you one

Hope that helps

Excellent, that works perfectly, thank you so much!

Ok, I've been searching the forum for an hour now, and google as well, with no success.
All the links that I've found on the forum don't bloody work!
Both for CrazyICE's one and RayOK's one ...

Where I can get one of the ban editor programs?

Can somebody please give me a link that works ...

Quote from Tinytacohead :

those are fairly coveted over here in the states.

Alot of the hot fords never made it to the states for some strange reason, you got the Merker XR4Ti, but that looks strange compared to the Sierras we have here, and it's nothing compared to the RS Cosworth models. But as I said, the one I got is nothing to boast about, just a mid range model with a few tweaks, lol ...

Quote from Tinytacohead :

tons of fun as daily drivers

That's the most important thing!

I think it's quite funny how people get all worked up about how one car is better than another, or not. Which is best, 4x4, RWD, FWD, 8 cylinders, 6 cylinders, 4 cylinders, japanese, european or american, and so on. What does it matter? Each car has good and bad points, and which one is best depends on how and where it's used, no one car setup is perfect ...

Anyway, here is my car ...







It's a 1990 Ford Sierra XR4i MKII, RWD with a 2.0L DOHC engine.
Quite a few mods have been done, but nothing worth boasting about.
It's not fast, it's not in the best of conditions, it's not even clean, lol ...
But I like my car, looks good (in my opinion) and is a pleasure to drive ...
There are plenty of better cars out there, but I'll never be able to afford them!
Having 600bhp would be nice, but my crappy 145bhp gets me to the shops just fine, lol!

Oh, the search never threw up that thread ...

Thanks for the link, I'll read all that tonight!

Hi ...

I've had a quick search on the forum and I didn't really find what I was looking for, well, I did, but the link given was dead, so I'll ask my question here (hoping this is the right section, lol).

How do you setup an LFS dedicated server on Linux?

I have absolutely no experience with Linux, so I'm a complete noob. I thought I'd give it a try though, as there are some good points to it, and I'll have my own dedicated server soon to play with. I've setup LFS servers on Windows XP and 2003 Server before with no problem what so ever, but as I said, Linux is different and I'm yet to learn about it.

I saw somewhere that you have to use a Windows emulator? Wine or something like that? How hard is that to do? Is there no other way? I imagine that somebody somewhere has written a tutorial / guide about how to install and use it, and maybe even how to get LFS to work with it? If you know of one, could you please give me the link or post your advice here? Also, are there some Linux distributions that are better then other for this kind of thing, or will it work on any of them?

Thanks in advance to anybody who can help ...

Thanks ... I just hope at least one person is interested ... lol ...

Hi, me and few friends would like to make up a small team ...

Lost control at a corner slowing down from 120 Mph ...

But, all is not bad, I have a new car now, also a 2L Ford Sierra :

Hi ... I'm new to this forum ...

My name is Dan, and I've been playing LFS for a few months now ...
Just the odd race on my own and a few online races too ...

I love LFS, one of the best racing games I've played ...

Lately me and some friends of mine have been playing online together.
Great fun, even though we are all new and still learning ...

Here are some videos I captures whilst playing :

http://www.danzserv.com/forum/stuff/videocaptures/lfs/

And some screenshots :

http://www.danzserv.com/forum/stuff/screenshots/lfs/

At the moment I'm trying to find some more people to race with ...
Racing with a few friends is fine, but a full grid would be much more fun.

If anybody would like to have a race or two with us, you're welcome !

I have a forum about various stuff, including LFS ... the address is http://www.danzserv.com/forum

So there you go ... I'm off to look around this forum ...
