This might help?

It's a new one to me tho.......possibley the ole' uninstall n redo?

Quote from pine-fin :

Is this another trick question?

Dunno about trick, but I wouldn't have guessed the answer, even with a modicum of education involved

Quite tricky bets this week

<closes eyes and stabs at mouse button>

gaaaarrrghhgrhghrflump :doh:

So, after (stupidly) using windows to update my drivers I realised they had installed flippin the equivalent of ZX Spectrum stuff instead, t*ssers.

Up till 2am renewing, uninstalling, wiping, defrags and generally updating things to at least the correct decade. Hoping this sorts the problem.......

Just got to uninstall RBR itself now, reload, and try it thru' the 5.1 surround instead of the usb headset.

Must admit, I've got some optimism this might work

Computers are sh!te, too complex for simple nuclear physicists like myself

Quote from NotAnIllusion :

Have you tried a non-usb headset?

Not yet, but they work 100% faultless with LFS, but still it's the first thing I'll try tonight Lets see if the 5.1 speakers work instead.

Quote from Vain :

1. bhmotorsports.com has a setup-sub-section in the download-section of their RBR section.
I can recommend the KSP sets, and the 'realistic KSP' to some degrees. I found the Subaru and Mitsubishi gravel sets from the latter pack pretty bad.
2. Finding out the exact chipset can be a bit difficult. Do you know which manufacturer provided the motherboard? Do you have any of the packaging left from when you bought the PC? It usually states the exact components somewhere.

1. Yep, spotted the set-up threads, but I though the KSP set were only for modded cars?
2. After 5 years, lol. I lose my bank cards at 30 minute intervals, no chance, but thanks for the thought I do have Everest installed tho, that might tell me.

Quote from Crashgate3 :

Had a play with the demo of this and then bought it from amazon for the princely sum of £4.11 including postage

What angle of steering wheel travel do rally cars usually have? I wasn't quite sure what to set my DFP to when I tried the demo.

I used 540 with some tweaking to make it less sensitive at high speeds (in-game options). It felt pretty good tbh

Thanks to all for hints n' tips

Quote from Michel 4AGE :

Dano, go for it. I did the same. I had the G25 anyway.. bought ps3 + GT5:P package 3 days ago. Don't regret it at all. Can't wait for full GT5 (Nordschleife + F40 = :schwitz

Word

I won't be buying the Prologue, but once the next GTA and GT5 are released, I'm going shopping

Quote from Vain :

The fact that you need to reboot windows (read: reload the drivers) to fix the problem also indicates that there is a driver-issue.
You should definitely try updating the chipset drivers of your mainboard. There are often tons of strange issues with them.

Sound & graphics drivers updated before I installed RBR. Haven't touched the motherboard or BIOS drivers in 5 years since I bought the machine tbh. That whole idea scares the bejesus out of me (spot the technophobe :shy

Might have to try it tho, it's too much fun not to have working properly. Might I ask how I would go about finding out what chips/boards I have and how to update? Thanks for helping a thicky

Quote from Vain :

But I kept going (without brakes!!) until the end of stage 6 and managed to bring home 5th place, securing my championship lead.
Vain

Nice work Vain, even after a (partial) days playing I can see how hard this would be

Waiting on my BHM forum registration to be approved so can maybe find more help (and some bl**dy set-ups!) there.

Thanks all

I just bought this at the weekend and spent all of Sunday trying to get it to work properly.

Eventually seemed to be working but now the engine sound dies completely at random in the middle of a stage or rally school stage, making the car totally undriveable. I do have the sounds coming thru' a USB headset (keeps the wife happy(er) :razz

It takes a whole reboot of the computer to fix it, then 10 min later it happens again.

Uninstalled, reinstalled, updated graphics and sound drivers, turned the sound HW acceleration to basic, and installed patch 1.02 but without any luck.

Anybody out there had the same issues and found a fix?

BTW Realtec AC 97 + radeon 9200

Thanks for any help

Quote from Bawbag :

He also claimed that after 3 years of playing LFS that he hasn't had his £24 worth.

pmsl, thats a good one that is

I'll still prolly but the pS3 simply for GT5 (full version), the new GTA and to play HD movies.

But when you get it free with a phone contract it doesn't seem so bad.........

I enjoyed hammering the Scooby around the ring with all the aids off and sim tyres on in GT4, realistic or not it was still fun

Wicked combination, hope it works well for both of you

Whats a dream?

Some folks smoke far too much mary jane that they haven't had one in decades

This thread kinda reminds me of the momentous and torturous ramblings on another forum I frequent.

Some poor sod asked a rather open ended question about Richard Dawkins, the 600 posts later the entire site underwent a state of quantum imbalance and f8cked off to create its own much more sensible universe.

Please dont resort to the level of http://www.ukc2.com/forums/

Thank You

Quote from Ian.H :

oh, you mean 'religion v2.0'?

Isn't that what religion / religious beliefs are right now? egotistical bullsh!t and selfishness? Or is that just islam?



Regards,

Dangerous talk Ian.......

But lol anyway

Quote from amp88 :

So...at some point in the future will the majority of the world's population stop being religious and if so will the world become a better place?

No probably not.

Self centred egotism and new levels of selfishness will prevail in their stead. It'll most likely get worse.

Unless of course, Hawking discovers God lives inside the singularity of a black hole at the centre of the universe, weaving himself a new robe out of superstrings. Then we shall all be smitten for being generally a bit crap and not living up to his/her exalted standards

nb - I'm an atheist so I kinda miss the whole religion thing altogether, thankfully :boing:

Played the demo back in 2003 but it was too basic for me at the time, plus I was a GT head...:shhh:

Bought S2 in early 2006 and never looked back

Before I got into LFS, I was a total GT fanboy having completed 100% of the GT1-4 series and loved every minute. Spending weeks perfecting the 'Ring in the M3 in sub 7 min was a dream at the time!!

I'm actually quite intrigued by the GT5 (not the daft limited prologue) and can see me nipping out to buy a PS3 when the full version arrives. But I'm also waiting on the next GTA game as well.

When those two appear I'll be out there kicking the doors down! And also something to do with blue-ray HD blah, whatever

Still, I am more interested in the next LFS patch, but quite frankly if it revolves around improved AI and cockpits I will be mighty disappointed as they wouldn't bring anything to my gaming experience.

NB - I ordered RBR from Amazon last night, £3.84 +P&P woo hoo
:woohoo:

Quote from Blas89 :

I gained 15 places \o/, Up to 29th
I got one bet question right.. Kimi first

I was top mover in the charts, climbed 19 places

11th overall in the weekly score charts. Top 10 next time........<cough>

Is it just me or is the site down atm?

I'm heading out on a gargantuan session tonight so won't be around to place my bets

B*gger........

nb - mind you, the spectacular lack of any correct answers at the Australia round means I might not be missing out on too much

Quote from garph :

Charlie Cox, he is hillarious!

I'd go for Sid Waddell

Seriously tho, it'll be great to be shot of the adverts and all of the presenters excpet Brundle.

Lets hope the Beeb take a few pointers from some of the new features ITV have introduced.

Quite suprised about the change tho, I thought the money side of things would have prevented the Beeb ever getting F1 back again, or were ITV just not that keen to keep it?

Quote from Rooble :

Oh no!!!

Don't be going up them there hills this time of the year... There be mysterious things-a happening up tharr.

P.S : Might pop by and have a looky!

Quote from tristancliffe :

The question went from 100% ambiguous to 100% non-ambiguous.

Pah, clear enough with a little applied thought

I think it's just asking for the number of times Ferrari have won the race.

From the Wiki page...........
"Year by year
A pink background indicates an event which was not part of the Formula One World Championship."

Therefore, I think they have used the terminology from the wiki page to construct their question

I realise they have to have wrong answers, but would they really ask if Ferrari have won the constructors title 15 times at Sepang?

Be interesting to see the response from the f1racemanager site admin tho.....

Quote from tristancliffe :

I've emailed them because I didn't understand which answer they were looking for.

If you already know, can you tell me, because I know the answers for all three possibilities.

Check out the wikipedia page for Malaysian GP, it kind of spells it out for ya

Quote from Hyperactive :

Heads up!

The first bonus question announced: http://www.f1racemanager.com/bonusquestion.asp

Cheers laddy

A perfect contribution to filling in the last couple of hours at work today

edit 1 - the question isn't written very clearly is it? I thought at first glance they mean the number of times ferrari have secured the constructors championship at said venue? Or is just how many times have ferrari won this race, hmmm.

edit 2 - ah ha, just found the site they took the original wording from, it helps a lot
