Quote from Gabkicks :

you cant intimidate lesser experienced drivers as easily because they are oblivious to the dangers.

On the other hand, you, as an experienced driver can anticipate a potential danger and therefore avoid it. It's actually rather funny sometimes.

Now if I just could find that particular replay ...

Quote from hannu :

[m]y gear rations were totally messed.

I've also experienced this bug and was therefore called an idiot for not moving when the green lights came on. This bug could start a war!

I know what you were asking for. I didn't intend to link anything-I meant this particular thread you're reading right now.

My reply was actually meant as a joke. ie, if you had subscribed to your own thread, you'd have found about patch w42 (within minutes) because of my reply.

Quote from Krane :

You mean something like Options->Misc->Car skins download [off|512|1024] (though, I don't think you can change that via script)?

It's the ability to change the setting via a script im asking for.

Slightly off topic, but since the skin management has been worked on in this series of test patches here goes.

Could there please be an additional option; not to download/apply skins during races? or add the ability to modify the download skins setting with a /command (ultimately a script).

(The convertion to DDS has helped slightly, but I'm still experiencing stutter occasionally.)

Have you subscribed to _this_ thread?

W42 is out

I guess the same goes for tyre temps (and damage?).

The delay before the red light comes on increases as the number of cars on the grid increases. If I'm not mistaken this system is intended to minimize the risk of accidents when a race is starting. Especially when starting from the lobby.

As a matter of fact this is partly why lag laps were invented. The delay between leaving the lobby and green lights was minimal back in the day.

Imho, lag laps are no longer needed.

Heh, that sounds complicated. As pointed out above, Scawen has already commented on this:

Quote from Scawen :

I'm keen to make in-game votes and the game setup screen "ready" flags persistent [...]

That's the kombat teams way of doing things! ie, either you're ready or you're not. No need to have everyone hit shift-r at exactly the same time. If enough people are flagged 'ready', just go.

Sigh .. What is our world coming to?

You bumped this 8 months old thread just to tell him that? Way to go.

Hopefully pickup servers will limit the amount of spectators to a sensible amount.

... Or a java applet which launches you into the official irc channel (which is already advertised on the website).

Florian, I managed to get in that state as well (see above). Keep trying.

Using androids guide I was able to reproduce the bug within 10 tries. Well done! Good luck Scawen.

Ah, For a second I thought that was the RAC.

AFAIK that happens when Scawen hasn't updated the master server with the new patch exe. He's rather busy tonight

Posted this in the Bug testing thread earlier on but realized it belongs here:

Joined the server early on and was on the grid when the race started. Did a few laps until I ran out of fuel. Pitted, changed car to LX6 and had barely left the pits before I was booted off the server for no appearent reason.

Things seemed to be running just fine until then.

Edit: Now it has happened several times. When I try to reconnect I Sometimes get "did not recieve track info".
Edit: I thought I was able to connect but suddenly LFS crashed: Crash Address: 52b413

Edit: Now it has happened twice. When I try to reconnect I always get "did not recieve track info".

Quote from niall09 :

what does DOS mean, sorry for the noobness

DoS, not DOS (DOS is an OS).

DoS: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Denial-of-service_attack

I was able to join the 32players online server but somehow my client of LFS seemed to load the wrong track. When I left the pits I spawned in the middle of nowhere. After driving around for a while i hit shift-S to spectate. The text "spectate" showed up on screen but I didnt become a spectator. Instead I ended up in a state where I could drive my car, but no nothing else. No Keyboard commands were working. As I am typing this I'm still not able to even type a message in LFS. I can still see other messages and the activity on the server.

I switched to windowed mode and hit X to close LFS. The text that said "spectator" was replaced by "Exiting" (or whatever it says) but LFS did not shut down.

I will now kill the LFS process.

Edit: here's the MPR if you need it.

Scawen,

I just encountered the old "did not recieve guest info"-bug which means no one was able to join the server. I was not at the server at the time but I'll attach the log and the last recorded mpr before the server went bananas.

The server was still running patch w34.

With some changes/additions to the original (english) keys.pdf

For example:

O - anti-spin
I - Ignition
C - Clutch
CTRL enables more options in chat input field
ESCAPE - cancel, go back
SHIFT-O - Options
SHIFT-A - Sound Engine Editor
CTRL-S - Screenshot
shift+- - Block ALL messages
ALT-F4 - Quit
SHIFT-J - Join session
5/6 - FOV

Alt F1-F5 seems to be outdated - removed

That's all I could fit!
