Don't know if anyone else picked up on this but..
Lap 1 in the tunnel when Hulkenburg had his accident Alonso was looking to make a move on Karun and the yellow flag was brought out but Alonso proceeded to make the move, I would say he was barely 1/4 of the way alongside Karun when the yellow flag or as it is, light, was shown, no matter the HRT agreement to allow Alonso through safely and not hinder him on his charge up field surely passing under yellow flags is against the rules no matter the situation (Very slow cars being one of few exceptions).

Added video to show Alonso was no where near alongside Karun.

For all Rubens Barrichello fans, or Brizilians of the LFSForum here is a question.
Is Rubens Barrichello pronounced Barrichello or Barrikello.
Heard many people pronounce it all sorts of ways, similar to Kubica

Wouldn't put me off

Yeah I know :P
But it's a FRenault nevertheless
Would be awesome if it was a post 2000 chassis, I think they are one of the nicest looking formulas out there.
My local circuit(Croft) do these track events, I might look into it

Just my slightly bias opinion but the FRenault has got my vote, I love the cars(as you can probably tell by my avatar:razz.
No other cars interest me, especially not with the FRenault as an option.

Thank you, and as promissed
*hugs*

I usually do, but I had to do a full re-installation of LFS a couple of days ago, where I deleted my whole LFS folder, think I had 30odd GB of LFS related stuff in there, anyways, my dds backup folder went with that.

Don't worry I'm sure they will get back to you in good time, they're a bit busy working on scirocco and Rockingham at the moment Jokes aside, they are very busy people in real life too, just like us

I am all for better crash physics and such, but random failures does not get my vote, Although, I would like to see better tyre damage, don't know if it will be coming with the next patch, but if you ride the high kerbs such as FE and KY too much it can lead to sidewall damage (especially in TBO + GTR).
Another one would be aero damage, this would be interesting imo, it could work two ways a: People are a lot more careful when racing, with that races become a lot cleaner or b: People still act in an idiotic way and by the end of the race whoever has lady luck on their side will win.
I don't mind the current damage system because when you get punted off it is easy enough to get back on and drive round to pits, although it would be nice if some more realistic damage was in LFS, but maybe in an option for servers to use?
What I would like to see is more effective gravel traps, yes it is possible to still drive through them at a much lower speed than what you currently can, but with more chance you will get beached.

Yes, no problems with any other program, I will do a re-installation soon, see if it helps.
Multiple LFS.exe errors
jakeeatworld
S2 licensed
Hello, in the past two weeks I have been having weird LFS.exe start up errors, I click my LFS.exe logo which is pinned to the Windows 7 32bit task bar and nine times out of ten I get a LFS.exe error, I must try to re-opening LFS.exe another three to five times before it finally works, from there on in LFS runs absolutely fine.

I am pretty sure I have not changed any directories or such, I have maybe added a few skins and layouts plus driver profiles but this shouldn't affect the LFS.exe right?

I don't know if computer hardware would be a factor in these errors, but I should hope not as I am running a fairly new Intel core i7 set-up.

Please help,
Regards, a puzzled Jake =]

--Edit--
Just let the "Windows is checking for a solution to the problem" run and this is what it came back with,

Files that help describe the problem:
C:\Users\Jake\AppData\Local\Temp\WER6855.tmp.WERInternalMetadata.xml
C:\Users\Jake\AppData\Local\Temp\WERAC29.tmp.appcompat.txt
C:\Users\Jake\AppData\Local\Temp\WERB05F.tmp.mdmp

May be helpful, may not, I don't know much about this

Well I'm guessing it's meant to be like that, BL1 is a fairly long circuit in comparison to BL2, so I would imagine the splits to be in completely different places.
--edit--- My bad, just took a look at the track on LFSmanual and apparently you are correct

Need help with a VIRUS!
jakeeatworld
S2 licensed
Hey, im posting here for advice if anyone has got any on a virus my friend has.

A couple of months ago my friends mobile phone contract bill started going through the roof £20-£30 more than it should be, vodafone say he's been ringing numbers and they have records of this, but he hardly ever uses it, his call log is empty!

It has been traced back to a virus, his mobile number is being used by a virus which is ringing numbers externally(?) and costing him a boat load of money.

The virus is found on all his virus programs and its called 'Coulomb Ltd. Content Access plugin' but no softwear can get rid of it and he cant do it manually(cant find file etc etc).

I would appreciate any help or advice on the virus off anyone who has had past experience of this or anyone with a solution.

I suggested police but for personal reasons that wasn't the best of ideas ^_^

HELP

well tbh, as fun as this thread is there is no real point, all the LFS cars are based upon a real life car.
That argument aside, i would really like a XF GTR, because it is one of the only cars i can't think of a real life model to go with it, Renault Cleo or meganne(spelling) maybe, although the XRT does look very sexual indeed.

I quite like being able to still race after being smacked into on the run to T1 or in T1 by someone who has lost his brake pressure and still be able to carry on and race.

On the other hand, it is a simulator and in order for it to advance and become better and more realistic it must have a proper damage model.
