No, someone actually put a picture of a badger on a lost-pet advert :P

I know, but I asked, did someone ACTUALLY try to phone?

Quote from sgt.flippy :

That's a pretty known joke, guess someone went ahead with it and did it for real

Someone tried to actually call the number?

I love this thread.
Lerts, you're great.

Wow!
Tried it, especially the Z06, sice I've been looking forward to it for a loooong time, and it's just great!

And having the convertible is nice too.

Well, we do some volleyball/badminton and throwing at school, but at sports I'm more useless than a table.

Now I have to reinstall RF again! Removed it a week ago because I wasn't using it anymore, but since v2 was outstanding, and there is the Z06...

Using it for a year now, I think.

IIRC many plants in and/or near Beijing have been halted, thus lowering the pollution quite a bit, but it will get wors as soon as the olympic games end.

Quote from BoyGTA :

Ok, thanks for your answers. Tomorrow I'll be S2 licensed aswell, can't w8!

Welcome then!
As stated, you'll pay only the difference between S2 and S3 when S3 comes out.

You mean you have unchecked the box "combined pedals" in the control panel?

Thank you so much for this patch!

Much better than the original, really liked it!

Quote from Crashgate3 :

I know SoftTH doesn't work with SLI'd cards, but does it work with the dual core cards (which are kind of SLI but on one board)?

Dual core cards still have only 2 dvi ports, so it shouldn't be possible to use 3 monitors...maybe two.

Quote from Frost_More :

I have a little problem I think, I downloaded lfs again from the main website then installed it in a different map and installed the Y30 patch. When I load the game it runs very good, but I don't have the new interior for the GTR cars etc.

Does anyone know why perhaps?

Thanks Scawen for the patch makes the game graphics allot better and smoother

Does it say Y30 on the bottom of the opening screen?

Quote from andybarsblade :

My average is around 0.200 - 0.250

Me too.
Best is 0.198 seconds.

The new interiors are awesome! Can't wait for the other ones to be refreshed too.

Quote from coolxiang :

i am admin and a install the h to y22 patch! so is there no solution how i can fix it?

Try to copy the folder "abc" of a default Y installation (simply download and unzip it somewhere, no need to unlock this installation too. We just want the folder) into your y22/y24 installation.
This has helped me, but remember to backup first.

Awesome vid, it's my favourite now.

Quote from Xaid0n :

OK, so the time has come where mum has kindly offered to buy me a new PC.

I have a price range of around £550, £600 tops.

I am not looking for a prebuilt pc rather buy the parts and put it together.

My question is, What components would you guys recommend for a budget gaming PC?

Thanks, Ash

EDIT: Attached is a suggested system from hrtburnout (thanks dude), could you guys give your opinions on it?

EDIT2: Mouse, Monitor and Keyboard NOT included please

Not bad at all.
If you use a 64 bit system I would take 4GB of RAM, but that's all I have to say for now.

Exactly.
Here are some decent videos thatI posted on another thread here:
Decent enough gaming system part A and part B.

You might also want to check other vids of the same channel out, which explains in a quite detailed manner how to install HDD, thermal compond, GFX cards, the lot.

Quote from nathan818 :

Hey i was just wondering how i could get better fps on lfs,im getting 30 to 8 fps drops as i drive and its annoying me,at start's 6 fps meaning missed shifts etc which is really annoying and not to mention causes crashes cos i dont move quickly off the line.so i thought id come here for some help


btw my laptop was originally 512 mb ram now its 2.5 as the diag attached says

id just like to know how i could fix it,or would i need to buy new hardware.also i run lfs in low detail

i tryed y22 but it is just as bad

If it has an integrated GFX chip, that could be the reason.

Always forgetting something.. :doh:

Migz, we just had convo about this same topic on our team forum and you and your dad might find help by reading our thread too

PC buying guide-thread :munching_

Is the link correct? I can't reach the site.

Nobody Was posting...

Quote from Fabri91 :

It isn't so easy, you have to look at the different rails...most OEM PCs have rubbish PSUs that quit as soon as you attach something else, like a GFX card.
We need to check to see if you also need to buy a better PSU.

Quote from Fabri91 :

You think or you know?

What you could do would be to:
1) remove your case side panel
2) take a pic of the psu, precisely of the table on it, because there are many nice things written like the amps on every rail and stuff.

Quote from Fabri91 :

Still, it would be very nice to know other specs of the psu.

Quote from Fabri91 :

I think you could have got something much better if only you had the patience to ask before ordering...the 8500GT is a mid-low end GFX card, it should move LFS good, but don't expect too much.

Plus all the other guys.

Quote from Racer325 :

Ah.. i orderd a 8500GT How much fps would that make the game run at? ))
