Right - I downloaded Rfactor tonight to try it out...


BWAHAHHAAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA....


anyways - it seems unfair to compare it to LFS - it seems more along the lines of TOCA Race Driver 3 or GTR2.

uninstalled within 6 minutes

Holy flying monkey wrenches.....he found the super-hyper-secret-jump-button!!!

before I go would you like a mars bar?......................... oh sorry I seem to have given it to someoneelse before giving you a chance to respond. Sorry about that.

You sod!!! you promised me that Mars bar *cries*

500th post....No idea why its an honour but the thread is a good giggle Becky how longs that wait list?

myeh it doesnt matter, it runs rather nicely in Cedega, just that Unlock issue to solve but very happy with it

Is there any plans for making a linux port of LFS ? I've just got my dual-boot system up and running and tbh...well windows is only now used for gaming...linux pretty much stomps it at anything else :-)

Wow what an event this will be :-) Can i provide audio/video coverage :P

Hey no worries here if it's too much aggro dont put us on the grid. Kind of hoped by-gones were bygones but hope the event is a success anyways :-)

(LOL Bleifuss - We might win in the 2nd server :P)

How not ?

I would like to officially enter my challenge into the 2006 Huge Effing Gob aka CaffaJake challenge pending buying cheapo tesco jaffacakes tomorrow wayhey

Quote from Becky Rose :

Antttt, I was joking before but I think you've gone far enough for the staff to consider your entry under regulation C5.1. OK so you are not bothered, you obviously hate the production although you are clearly in a minority there which means we didn't do bad for the first show.

Nobody minds you expressing an opinion and any driver is perfectly allowed to say they didn't like it and state why, but I think you have gone too far and too personal against staff of the STCC and the only responsible thing I can do is deny your entry in order not to create an ambience of hostility when you are racing.

As for famous people from my area, well we had a King, infact my last house was built on a corner of his old estate. That's not what the point was though and you clearly missed the point I was making, preffering instead to make another personal attack.

Just what are you hoping to get out of this thread? Except for enemies?

LOL ant i think you just got pumped :P

Watched clips of the broadcast... excellent presentation wise and layout as well, agree with ant about the voice though... but other than that. Great broadcast and hope you get on well with them.

Im up for this also, username f1r3b4ll

Just gutted at the news and I hope to hell he recovers from this... Thank god he's still alive from the crash itself!

He really is such a talented TV presenter, not just in Top Gear but in Brainiac and of course his old ITV show during the afternoon.

I think it's a bit extreme to blame the software when ( at least to me ) the software has a very simple hosting interface.

For those unfamiliar with hosting, the ingame server is an easy to use and simple start for getting a server running. While the dedicated server is your usually command-line afair...

Now blaming the program is a perfectly normal thing to do, if it is actually the program thats to blame... but considering there are hundreds of LFS servers running at any given moment, this wouldn't see, to be the case.

The reason why the software is "complicated" as you put it is simple. You are in control of how the server is setup, if you are one of those "I want things done in two clicks" gamers, then i seriously suggest a console might be a better option for gaming.
The majority of PC games take this approach to hosting games, because by nature (and in my opinion) PC servers allow you far greater control and say of the setup of the server than console servers that "just work".

There are many people on this forum who (myself included) would be happy to help you set up your own server, after all, there maybe quite a few american racers who would benefit if you started up a server.

Anyways if you need any more help with this - just post and we will help you through whatever bits you are stuck on :-)

Dave

i want too play too!

Well it had to happen...my mates having his stag do today/tonight, today we're off to knockhill to do some karting. I've never done it before and geeee, can you tell im excited... it's supposed to be friendly and a laugh, but i know for a fact its going to be pretty wild.

I'm hoping I do well or at least that i don't complain about no Shift+S or a default setup lol

Quote from Vagner :

Hi Scawen,

1st. of all, nice job

In portuguese translations i have a problem. We speek "Dia Claro" ( Clear Day ), but, in translation say "Claro Dia". In other words, time of day and weather.
The same aplies in lenght of the track, ex "circuito 1.5 km" but is show 1.5 km circuit.

I think is complicated to resolve?


Sorry if I'm not clear enought.

I think if I'm right Vagner is trying to say the translation needs the word order changed round from "Claro Dia" to "Dia Claro" as well as the circuit.

Vagner, your english was pretty good - well done :-) if you want to post a list of what you have found in an order like:

Game Text Actual Text

Claro Dia Dia Claro


This might make things a little easier for you and wouldnt make you struggle with english :-) *edit - i put spacing in there, forgetting its a forum - DOH!*

Loving the new patch scawen, as a side note dunno if this is a stupid comment or not but when you use the user camera.. you lose movement on Force Feedback

When you say you can't host a game i presume you mean that no-one can join your game..

We need some more details about what your trying to do - in-game server - dedicated server ?

I am by no means any significant voice on racial equation but the minute humans stop splitting themselves into packs - religion, race,sexuality,football team... and work as a whole... things would progress so much better

I won Scawen, Eric and Victor in a drinking contest

lol its cool, and i did read the first post, just didnt understand that you lot were wanting a client side program for specating races.

Quote from the_angry_angel :

Oh dear god why didn't we think of this?!?!!!!111oneoneonetwoeleventwelve!! Even better this can be done on 1 PC, rather than 2.

(yes, I'm a little tetchy today).

Edit:
I know that it probably sounds harsh, and I apologise, but I think you've missed the discussion on this entire thread and / or probably not read it.

I'll remember not to bother contributing to further posts then
