To start a dedicated host, you modify steup.cfg, then double click LFS_HOST_CFG.

It opens up a dedicated and a command window, but the server goes online.

I currently have 3 servers online:
[itbrti] Demo
[itbrti] S1
[itbrti] Layout

Wow! What a treat Scawen, thanks!

Hm, I am running windows XP also. Just to check, what happens if you run it in compatibility mode?

Well supposedly the patched file unlocks for some, I tried unlocking without the patch, had got no response from the server, when I used the patched, it allowed me. So people that get "unlocking error" are connecting, but unable to unlock.

I emailed the dev's curious if they knew why it was unable to unlock for some.

Quote from LFSTech :

Hi,

It's weird that you can unlock - LFS at that time didn't have the master ip stored in the shape of master.liveforspeed.net ; instead it has a hardcoded IP address pointing to one that doesn't exist anymore.
That's probably why they cannot unlock anymore.

Quote from Nathan_French_14 :

Maybe the guys are not running the file named "patched" after running the normal one first.

I don't think you need two LFS's running at once. The 'patched' LFS, I believe, just has the IP changed.

Since you cannot hold CTRL and select a color for your name, you need to type the color in manually:

Example: ^7[itbrti]^0 Dustin would be: [itbrti] Dustin

Quote from How can I get a coloured player name? / Type messages in colour? :

0 - Black
1 - Red
2 - Light green
3 - Yellow
4 - Blue
5 - Purple
6 - Light blue
7 - White
8 - Dark green (default)

Darn, wonder why it's not able to unlock for you guys.

Quote from MR_B :

This works a treat! great work

Were you able to successfully unlock it?

I am able to connect from my workplace to my home running.. I'll check the connections again. Are you running the patched 0.3H6 LFS?

Edit: checked the connections, everything is port forwarded.

Some others have also had that problem, are any LFS ports forwarded?

Edit: I also made a demo host "LFS S1 0.3H6 Demo".

I looked around, and unless I missed it, I don't think so. It only took me about an hour to get 600 credits anyway.

Quote from Whiskey :

that was saved in a plain txt, wasn't it?

What do you mean?

Gotta earn your MRT credits though!

Get the focus, it's worth it, and it's damn comfortable.

Who's up for a little S1 action? I have successfully unlocked (via Master server) LFS S1 0.3H with the Patched 0.3H6 from Unlockable S1 thread. If anyone wants to play, I've got some instructions from my "blast from the past" section of my website.

Cheers.



EDIT by Scawen :

I've found the source code and built a version S1H7 which is easier to use :

- connects to the new master server
- no credits required to unlock cars
- unlocks on Vista and Seven

Make sure you have LFS S1H, then you need "LFS 0.3H6 - Patched.zip" from http://www.lfsforum.net/showthread.php?t=22662.

Once you download that, unzip the patched LFS into your LFS 0.3H6 folder, and start the patched LFS. Then unlock. It worked for both of my accounts.

Edit: Currently hosting a server called "LFS S1 0.3H6"

I believe you can still see the master list with this one, but cannot unlock:
