Have you read the host-FAQ and set your config file? Or what exactly does not work, where are you stuck?

I like the HUUUP button the most!

Rest is awesome, too. I really need to consider getting an appartment with an extra room for racing.

No, sorry Sir, the Devs are BUSY, not BORED, you misinterpreted that. It's not that they don't have any ideas left that will really bring LFS to a new level.

wb and correct your signature

1. Install MOMO drivers for Windows (only if Win doesn't recognize by itself)
2. Enter LFS, Options, Controls -> Choose wheel and assign functions to the axis etc.
3. Drive a new WR.

Hope he is going to further develop the game instead of taking the money and buying a small caribbean island.

You can find a bunch of setups at http://setupfield.teaminferno.hu/

For your settings, try to figure around with the braking balance and the toe on the rear axis.

Another idea: Did you try Single Player yet? The Out of Sync points me to a multiplayer problem... Both Sync and steering could be due to a bad server connection, but this shouldn't happen in SP.

I have a dream!

<a moment of silence>

I have a dream of a country where LFS S1+S2+S3 costs 36 GBP in total which is the complete game and another 12 GBP for official tracks+cars like Nordschleife.

Oh ok, my experience was from 4x.xx series, switched to ATI at that time.

OK, now it is me again.

I believe the tool I formerly used (in my last thread) was LFSlaunch or something else rather old. I recently updated to join2lfs 1.4.1.1 and found out that - I still have the same problem.

But solved it now. First, it came to my mind that the protocol handler entry in Firefox needs to be adjustet. This was not the case. The about:config didn't show any lfs entries except the setting for the warning message y/n. But finally I found the lfslaunch executable and a way to uninstall, then reinstalled join2lfs and now, finally, it works with all server names.

Thank you very much for the tool and the support.

Picking WHQL certified drivers gets you to a safer side. The non-WHQL are often unstable.

Hehe, now I think I got what you are looking for. As a bonus, the crash happens already right after start, makes replaying for you very easy. It's a bunch of GTR on AS3. Enjoy!

GFX Card? And attach your LFS cfg file, may help troubleshooting.

It is covered in the manual iirc.

That's easy to tell: I hit join, LFS starts up (with a black screen) and the join procedure starts - normally it would load the track details and stuff, but sometimes it just hits the "server no longer online" thingie.

I tried to figure out which version I got installed, but - can't track it down. Can't find a Firefox Plugin, can't find a seperate installation in my programs dir, nor on my game partition. Can't find any *lfs* file names outside above sources, so - don't ask me WHAT exactly I have installed for joining, but anyways, it seems to be outdated.

/edit: "SPECIAL NOTE: You may need to download and reinstall Join2LFS application again since patch Q, because or some changes to the hostnames and browser incompatibilities, which needed to be addressed. As such a new version of Join2LFS is available now via the earlier link."

- Maybe I should just follow the bold printed advices.. =)

At this very minute I don't have the time to look thru my Firefox Plugin thingie, so I will give you the name / version I am using later tonight. Any hint where I can look it up?

Is there a kind of Fansite Kit available? An archive containing Hi-Res-, or even better, vector-based logos and stuff?

Quote from the_angry_angel :

Are you getting this constantly? Or is it just sometimes?

Yes, constantly. Take for example the Server 'Motodrom gfsclan.de': If I try to join via lfsworld, I get the same message. In german, it reads: "Der Server ist nicht mehr online" - or in english, "Server is no longer online". But in fact, the server IS online! I can join via the ingame browser.

Some other servers refuse to work for me at lfsworld AND ingame browser. And some work just as intended, regardless which option I pick to join.

I allways refresh the server list, ingame browser's one as lfsworld server list, the lists seem fine, just the join function not. This happens to me for 3-5 days, where before I never encountered it. In other words: for the time I installed Patch Q.

Have you tried redownloading LFS (@ Victor (if he reads this): perhaps we could do with a MD5 hash to verify that the LFS download is correct)?

I didn't. Actually, I still want to solve the problem, not to work around it. Hopefully my installation helps the Devs to figure out. Oh well, I could redownload and install to a different directory, yeh maybe later today.

*bump*

Does this happen to anyone else?

arg, again we are beaten by zeh germans:banghead:

Some things will NEVER change!

I would chose a Radeon 9800pro. Performs very well, even with other, more GPU based games. You can still use it if you decide to upgrade your whole computer system, the 5200FX wouldn't give you much joy once you bought yourself a new PC.

Hey there.

During the past days, it happened to me alot: I pick a server at lfsworld -or- the ingame server browser, but once I try to connect, I get a message like "server no longer online" (dont recall exactly what it says).

I tried to refresh the lfsworld browser as well as the ingame one, but still not working. What happened? I got 3-4 servers that show up with players online, even the player names change from time to time, so it seems to be working for others.
