I did something completely different lol.

I got the PC that i was given recently (which was intended for spares for mine) and after putting all the drives back in, PSU back in, CPU back on, etc.... It booted up perfectly on XP as it did before.

So i put my hd2600 in that PC, installed the AGP hotfix version 9.9 drivers, installed LFS, and lynces reflection pack and hi res skies, the whole lot,and..

With a res of 1024x768@32 bit, AA/AF on full (8x and 16x, i forget which is which, but max on both anyway) Haze effect on, sky on, trees flags rubber on basic, Z buffer on 24, everything else set to hi res...

A rock solid 70FPS!

Needless to say i will not go back to my previous machine now, plus this one can have 2gb ram maximum as this one has a different mobo (MSI MS-6533/G) whereas the other one (gigabyte ga8simlnf) can only accept 1gb.

It only has 512 in at the moment, but more ram can only help more for day to day PC use.

Plus the MSI board IS overclockable, oh yes!! I should be able to get this 2.53 CPU upto the 3gig mark hopefully, and even if i cook the CPU (unlikely), i have an identical one in the other PC, win/win situation!

Nice to hear that u got it sorted, tho as someone else said; try a different PSU and/or RAM stick(s).

As for the overclocking, i dont think it will give u anything tbh.. a p4 is so old, and tbh crappy, so it might give u like.. 5 fps, which in my pov, aint much. So i think u should run on this comp and start saving for a better one They aint so expensive now aday, so ull get away pretty (read: most likely) cheap..

GL mate

come back with the same problem when you haven't screwed around with the vob's and posted a picture of it in violation of the forum rules... then we'll talk heh

thats not vob-related, thats just some polygons missplaced.

Quote from bbman :

Well, if someone likes to get banned from ever uploading hotlaps again for the short fame of having a WR for maybe half a day until Victor can take it down, he sure can try...

true, tho its stupid to give the devs more work then they already have... sry for ot..

Quote from RasmusL :

I know this has nothing to do with this recent test patch, but you do know that you are still able to upload hotlaps from the test patches onto lfsworld even with ABS enabled? I don't really think it can be abused a lot, but editing the 2 bytes in the .spr to 00 instead of the patch number makes the replays valid.

that should be in a PM to the devs.. not here..

GREAT! Hated that bug with the tyres :S

Quote from wheel4hummer :

Yes, I meant these:

here in sweden its called positioning lights.. they light up as part of the "let prople know where i am, without my lights on" thingie.. when u just turn ur ignition on.. if u get what i mean? :P

Tho they should work in lfs too i think..
tho we also need a ignition button (we have starter now), and we need "3" changed from highbeam to lowbeam, and have "G" as highbeam as ussual..

Dunno if its a new or old issue, but found a shadow bug (first time i see a shadow bug.. EVER..) attached a img..

Quote from pinoykid13 :

Quote from anttt69 :

Should the Scirroco be S1 content or S2?

With the amount of work thats gone into the Rocco, getting it right with new physics. Should Sca Vi Er be giving it away for just £12??

I really think the Scirroco should have been S2 content. What do you think?

If u had searched u would have found...

Quote from Scawen :

A reminder :
- The new physics will be a free update for all LFS users
- The VW Scirocco will be available to S1 and S2 license holders

That makes it pretty clear for me anyway..

Quote from de Souza :

My point was: the 8800GTs probably aren't faulty.

Yeah I know what u meant, didnt mean to point that at u

It was meant for the ones earlier in the thread that "kinda" said all the 8800gt are crap..

Quote from de Souza :

At work right now so I can't research...

...but a little googling will tell you that all(?) G84 and G86 cores have issues. The 8800GT is the G92 core, wich I think is a die shrink from one of those, so nVidia should have fixed it by then. No?

I had a PNY 8800GT, no problems at all with it. Was dumb enough to upgrade to a GTX260, and THIS gave me artifacts :P Strange as hell.

But what i mean is; I do NOT think it a general fault in the 8800's, must be 1/10 thats faulty..

"...Likewise, the clutch assembly uses a heavy spring with a switch for engage/disengage." Yeah a digital clutch must be fun :P

Quote from Sponge :

What Bob is trying to say (i think) is that you can decide to buy a S3 license now and get the extra content as is't being made/released OR you can decide not to get a license now, wait untill all S3 content is done, and then buy a license.
Ofcourse the chance of LFS dieing or stopping is always possible (but very unlikely). Thus risking a chance of not getting any new content at all if you dicide not get it and LFS quiting in the meantime.

What Bob said, dont need any explaining. He said it honestly and in the right way, i understood exactly how he meant it, and if someone takes it the wrong way then let them.

And if u think of it, how much doesnt it cost to laserscan an entire track? I dont think they get so much money left after everything is payed..

Quote from Klutch :

So what you're saying is.


A fiction book is more believable than a fiction movie?

I'm with you on this one. I think its just as bad to believe what is written in the "bible" as to believe everything about Star Wars and such.

Everyone always say that the "bible" is God's words and whatever, tho its written by mortals, so it inaccurate and crappy.

Tho I have easier to believe in Jediism than in Christianity.

Quote from IlGuercio :

So?What's the point of this thread?

He wants someone to make him a setup, is that so hard to understand from what he wrote?

Im pretty bad at making setups otherwise i would've helped u :P

Quote from burnsy1882 :

I might, didn't know if I would be allowed to do so, but yeah, would probably be a better idea to give it more exposure.

yeah do that :P i think it would give this project much, much more views/hits if u did. And i also dont think the mods have anything to say about u making a new thread about a "new" app

from the name of the thread i can only say that i hope u are more serious in-game..

Quote from ZanZi :

excuse me for this but im planing to buy a new pc in the next days with this exact cpu model just wanted to ask if its any good as performance/noise etc. Whats your view about it?
We could do this via pm if you want so thread can stay mintly clean

im pretty sure no cpu makes any noice whatsoever.. tho the FAN might be loud... and im pretty sure it is kinda loud, not like an airplane tho..

Quote from Be2K :

mh Gigabyte ... its not the best motherboard producer.. :/

maybe not the best, but its one of the best.
i recently switched from gigabyte to asus, and now i cant play GTA4 because the mobo screwed up my CPU so i get artifacts in GTA4 :P

Tho mobo's are differently good at different things
