Found an old one:

I'm the orange/black XFG on the left (yes, facing the guardrail)

*cough*
That's 1 or 2 12v batteries, the ones you'll find in a backup powersupply (12v 12Ah or something like that).
Be careful with lead acid batteries, if you short one of those your wires will glow red hot instantly.


I'll try to find some pics of +/- 100 9 volt batteries attached to eachother

Well there are the batteries, can't find more pics :/

Because the resistance of the paperclip is very low, it will draw a very high current (current = voltage / resistance).
That in turn will heat up the paperclip (power = voltage * current).

look ma, no wheels :P

Not the best photograph in the world, but still quite pleased with it.

Actually it is. I don't think some little kid made a homemade explosive... You can buy it in stores. And frankly, I think if the kids made it at home, it would be even worse than they just bought it. They shouldn't have had it in the first place.

And actually, fireworks are explosives...

It is homemade, a bomb like that is made of (a component of) fertiliser and zinc powder. You can't buy it as a bomb, because it's highly unstable (and real explosives are much better and safer). There are tons of websites describing how to make various bombs, and most of them are made with common household stuff.

Same stuff is going on over here with Crofty bombs, that's just drain unblocker with pieces of aluminum foil.

Quote from sgt.flippy :

On another forum there is a guy who has a fish breeding pond, and some kids threw in a nitrate bomb. A lot of the fish are dead or poisoned, and it took hours to repair the tank. While in The Netherlands it isn't allowed to use that kind of fireworks when it happend a few days ago.

What does that have to do with fireworks
That's an homemade explosive, not something you buy from the store

Overall a great patch , although i don't like the removal of "throttle blip on downshift", especially with autoclutch enabled. On some (well, most) controllers it's at least pretty hard to blip the throttle on downshift manually, since most pedals don't allow heel-toe (placed too far apart or the axis are combined). With autoclutch it's very hard to time right, since you obviously don't have control over the clutch.

i can't unlock x38? it says "wrong version".

For shots like your examples you'll need a polarization filter. That will reduce reflections and haze, so you'll get those vivid colors instead of the "fog-thatwasn't-there-when-i-took-the-shot" desaturated colors. It also makes water almost perfectly transparent.

Also take into consideration you don't really want to switch camera brands after a while. You can't put Nikkon glass on a Canon for example.

u cant change the HP at all.

Well, there is an ''engine power multiplier thingy" variable, but you'll certainly will not find it with cheat-o-matic for obvious reasons (you can't change the value ingame, for the less clever ).

You could try TSearch, which has a lot more options (it can search 1,2,3,4 bytes, floats and doubles for example), but without knowledge of the way the variables are stored in memory, they are pretty hard to find.

but this doesnt work online.
btw - with 600 KMH topspeed on the oval...weeeee!
too bad u cant take the turns much faster then 420-450 otherwise ur tires will just bend aside

Try looking for the tire pressure and wing angle. I did find the wing angle, but i'm not sure it will go over 20 deg. The pit change thingy (F10 or something?) showed an angle of -400 something degrees :P

It's very likely not possible to use negative values on fields that normally work with positive-only numbers. I'm pretty sure Scawen is clever enough to use unsigned data types for non-negative fields (like the weight addition is an unsigned byte).
That's also the reason why huge numbers won't work (or screw up the game), the maximum value of a single byte is 255, so the maximum added weight for example is 255 kilo's. If you go beyound 255, it will overwrite the next byte in memory, which will probably break something (or even crash the game).

"mod" works fine...
(not really a mod, it's just memory editting like lfstweak)

just read the included manual... it's easy

lmao 180 lock is funny, like a bumper car

Looks more like an arcade game intro video to me
Those old biplanes are way too fast and agile in that video.

I don't have those colored glasses, but it looks like you took the same screenshot for red and blue. That doesn't work very well, they need to be at a slightly different angle.

If you have a nVidia graphics card, you can use the stereo driver (here) (note: you also need the correct driver version, the same version number as the stereo driver).

At least my driver was wearing the right helmet...

I don't have a picture of it, but somewhere here is a sign saying "Onbewaakte overgang", wich means "unguarded railroad crossing". The fun bit is, it's in the middle of about 15 tracks.

Are you sure it's 1280x768? thats a 16:9 widescreen resolution. Widescreen computer displays are usually 16:10, wich would be 1280x800.

This is what happens when someone changes the layout without telling people @ STCC server

Nice dials

I've made a dash in java a while ago, so if you're looking for de car engine values, here they are:

Not the most brilliant code, but it's the values that matter.
rpms.setData(10400,11730);
first value is redline, second value is the end of the gauge.

tbos.setData(18, 18);
same as above, turbo doesn't have redline so those are the same.

tbos.setVisible(false);
Car has no turbo.

i think it's too fake to be shocking. Some 10 years ago, there was a commercial by VVN (Veilig Verkeer Nederland) which was pretty good in my opinion, at least way better than this.
It showed a normal day with some kids playing with a kite on a field. There's a road next to the field, and a car is driving on it, a little bit too fast, but not unusual (say about 60km/h instead of 50). Suddenly one of the kids with the kite crosses the road and the next thing you hear is tires screeching. You don't see the accident, the only thing you see is the kite crashing down.
I think everyone here in the Netherlands remembers that commercial very well.

I tried to make a in-car cam, it's useless (and looks shitty, no inside textures). It still behaves like an external cam, so if you make a turn, the camera turns a little bit slower.
