Just give it some time, new things can be scary, I know.

HoloLens will be amazing, can't wait to hear what it might cost for consumers...

Except how is it amazing? Do you really want to walk around a room to use a computer? It seems like Microsoft needed 1 more platform bullet point when building Windows 10, and spun the Nintendo Gimmick Wheel and came up on "Head Mounted Display".

I'm sorry, but if Microsoft thinks that people are gonna wear a **** headset around in public or at work, they're 100% out of touch with real life.

In light of this magnificent day, the 1st of April, 2015. I hope that Clarkson also supports other groups that he has insulted in the past. The pikeys at Pikes Peak or the Morris Marina fan club.

Hue hue hue.

Gosh darn it there is no ignore feature.

The ignore feature works both ways.

]Wow, Clarkson has finally seen the error of his ways!

Jeremy Clarkson joins Guardian ... or fossil fuel divestment

Selected quotes:

Quote :

Following what he described as a “dark night of the soul”, Clarkson said he hoped to “regain the trust of the British public” by dedicating his time and financial resources to sustainable energy, road safety and forging mutual understanding and tolerance between people of different cultures and religions.

“But, in the end, this is bigger than Planet Clarkson. This is Planet Everybloodybody, including members of the traveller communities and our Burmese and Argentinian friends,” he winked.

Well done to him. Obviously I was too quick to rush to judgement, and I hope his popularity will bring light to an important issue! [url=http://www.topgear.com/uk/jeremy-clarkson/calists-05-1996][/url

Pfect.

GUYS I MADE A RACER X POST

I spend half my day drinking and the other half cursing at code.

That's my life as a software engineer.

Quote from cargame.nl :

Making millions with it, they don't care how people call it ... And you can't host privately, so no cracker ass-h* ...

They'd spend millions on litigating you into the ground if you did make an offline version.

They don't call it iceRacing for its snow rally stages...

iRacing isn't expensive if you're a Arab Oil Baron.

Why would it change anything? The people who want to re-mortgage their homes can play the potato iRacing version.

*woosh*.

Quote from MousemanLV :

LFS....expensive?...
Drive iRacing for a year including all the possible content that's out there!

You wouldn't last a year. You'd have to remortgage your home to pay for the content, and end up defaulting.

Quote from Scawen :

Quote from Papa :

No, I switched between full screen mode and windowed mode while Eyefinity was active all the time (also when the screenshots were taken). When pressing Shift+F4 the frame rate increases/decreases by ~100 FPS instantaneously.

But what does it mean, for Eyefinity to be active? Is it doing anything when you are not in full screen? Or is it just running there idle, waiting for you to go full screen? I know from my dual monitor setup that a large window on an extended desktop works OK in Windows 7 without any additional software (usable and with good frame rate though it doesn't look very nice). So this is why I am asking if Eyefinity is really doing anything in that case.

This reminds me of my old grumble about how annoying it is that MS removed the capability that XP had, to go full screen on multiple monitors. To use a dual monitor I used to simply go full screen in the relevant mode. Now, with Windows 7, I have to use a window and not go full screen. Although I have on my notes to look into coding for a new borderless window mode. And also I see there is external software available to run games in borderless windows. http://westechsolutions.net/sites/WindowedBorderlessGaming/

Eyefinity/nVidia Surround makes your three-screened desktop act like 1 giant surface. They also do bezel correction (at least in nVidia Surround).

Borderless Window is pretty standard on most games now, primarily to allow easy switching between game and other applications, but it comes with its own penalties (sometimes) where Aero will do VSync on that window as well, even though the game is rendering it at 200+ FPS.]

nVidia Surround requires 3 screens IIRC. Not sure about AMD Eyefinity.

Quote from Ingolf :

Saw this some time ago. Made my day. Beer, sauna, a dirt-road and a car that wont start unless you put it together. Why didn't SMS think of that...

SMS was too busy bait-and-switching from making a sim to making an NFS Shift clone.

Quote from R@fiXII :

The problem is that GTA has undriveable physics... After I bought GTA V and got amazed by beautiful world I talked to myself "Why the hell doesn't it have LFS physics?!?!"
I know, there will come many many mods that improve vehicles handling, but it will never be the same.

GTA IV had better driving physics than V :/

GTA V physics fit how GTAV needs to be played a lot better. Could you imagine the under/oversteer that GTA4 cars had in some of the GTAV missions? They'd be **** atrocious.

Glass house.

Don't throw stones.

facking finland

I used to AFK a lot back in the day in dSRC servers. PLus who can forget tiny sitting there day anf night, watching the chaos either.

Quote from R@fiXII :

But changing geomtetry of interior wouldn't affect any performance/physics characteristics... So maybe not

Depending on how LFS calculates stuff.. it could affect CoG or Inertia.

old RSC was the bomb.

Quote from cargame.nl :

How does it know? Geo IP? (edit; no, switched IP to AUS, didnt do anything, also not when logged out hhmm)

Does it in Javascript. Changing the timezone on your computer will change the result.

It iterates through all the dates on the page, creates a new JS Date object, sets the various components in UTC time, and then gets the output using getSeconds() and such.

I apologize for not wanting to read the entire thread so I can find out how do I actually put this new AI to an use. Halp please?

You can't. It's currently a WIP project by Blackbird.

Quote from aaltomar :

mostly at home in iRacing.

That's because iRacing owns your home. They mortgaged it in exchange for more content.

You can dynamically change .lyts inside a server. The smallest size possible makes sense to be able to change that for everyone as fast as possible

Quote from cargame.nl :

Leave the packet alones!

Nah, seriously.. Full IPv6 readyness will imply another incompatible patch anyway when the world is changing to that format, lets change it when it's actually needed.

Except some people do have the ability to use IPv6. My server for instance can listen on IPv6 IP for a connection.

Many people already can and do use IPv6. Having support (or future looking support where possible) "now" is an important idea as IPv4 is basically exhausted.

So many websites offer up AAAA records, even LFS, for connecting with IPv6.

In light of this magnificent day, the 1st of April, 2015. I hope that Clarkson also supports other groups that he has insulted in the past. The pikeys at Pikes Peak or the Morris Marina fan club.

Hopefully he will also pay us back for the hours of poor entertainment and non-laughter that we were all forced to endure over the last 20 seasons of Top Gear.

/aprilfools

I don't think LFS supports IPv6 at all right now.
