Awesome patch, well done guys, much appreciated. Even if I don't have FPS problems, the guys who have less powerful PCs will take advantage of the performance improvements. Performance updates are always good and come handy for any upcoming graphical updates!

The price has been raised, it's 41,99€ now! Glad I bought it earlier for like 25€.

Quote from Matrixi :To be honest, I think a native implementation would be more useful. LFS would really benefit from having more of those little ? icons/explanations on all the technical graphics settings.

I agree, more question marks in-game would be great, especially for new users - but adding more question marks needs more translation work as every help screen needs to be translated and some languages still have periodically inactive translators. Confused
Quote from Matrixi :The new frame timing display is nice though, I'm just not certain how to exactly read it. Big grin

Same ^^

Today I was cleaning up LFS Manual a bit and came across the Westhill page and found out there isn't a picture of the Car Park, still. Is there any chance of creating it? Dont get me wrong, Im not pressing just found it strange that there is no scheme of the WE Car Park (it's missing from the track page, too: https://www.lfs.net/tracks/WE).

Little offtopic though, but if we are talking about FPS optimizations and so, there is a little freeze every time when I switch to the Game page in the Settings. If I visited the Game page in the current session already and I open it up again, there is no freeze (probably because it's cached already).
This bug is an old one (as long as I know it) and not introduced with the recent (test) patches.
Maybe this one is easy to fix? Smile

By the way, the FPS increase is awesome and will probably help those with less powerful PCs. Great job! Smile

Vamery? Means nothing to me. I would just skip those - looking too great to be true...

You mean 0.6H and 0.6H4 test patch, right? Smile

Quote from Scawen :Though LFS doesn't get any benefit from SLI anyway.

Oh. I thought SLI was "transparent" - that it didn't need app support to work, but that the device drivers just did the sharing under the hood...

That one was new for me, too! Smile
Quote from Neilser :OMFG - SLI on a laptop??? Wow... :-O Ya right

[bit offtopic]
Yeah, quite surprising but it's real - it has a slot called "UltraBay" and it's possible to buy either a HDD, an additional fan or a graphics card (GT650M or GT750M) that works together with the primary graphics card in SLI - so I have a GT650M in it.

I have (almost) the same situation as Dave. On my Lenovo IdeaPad Y500, I have 2x GT 650M 2GB (each) in SLI paired with an i5-3210M, which, according to ark.intel.com, has an Intel HD 4000 built in it. However, for some reason Lenovo COMPLETELY disabled my IGP. I can't see it anywhere, even in BIOS. Tried encoding with Intel Quick Sync in OBS, but it says I have no Intel IGP installed.
This way, I have no problems with games, they always run on the 2 high-performance 650M's.

Quote from cargame.nl :When I limit FPS or Vsync my graphics card goes into power save mode by halving core clock / memory clock.

I can't confirm this. Opened a 0.6H3 LFS in a window and monitored my GPU core clock and memory clock while I was playing with the FPS-limiter and V-Sync. None of them lowered my clocks.
(Im using some great gadgets to monitor all these, see addgadgets.com)

You are right, the toilets have some weird textures only if using Shift+U mode and the car is close to them. Check pictures. For the record, Im always using a pure and clean install of LFS to test these patches, without any mods.

Your situation is very strange. Running on a bit older notebook (i5-3210M 2,5GHz, 8GB RAM 800MHz, 2x NVIDIA GeForce GT650M 2GB in SLI) I have 320 FPS on open configuration Westhill... I'm running Windows 7 Professional x64 and I'm using a resolution of 1440x900. I had no problems with the switchable graphics, every game used my both GT650M's power.
It's also strange that there's no memory usage on your graphics card... I use some widgets to monitor my hardware, and my GPU Meter (AddGadgets.com) shows my current memory usage in real time - you could give it a try.
Also, make sure everything is in "High Performance" mode, even your battery power plan (doesn't matter if it's on AC power or not, just keep it on high perf. mode).

Quote from Gutholz :Think such pages should be marked as outdated? It is wiki, so could make some template, similiar to how it is done here:
https://wiki.openttd.org/?title=Copying_GRF_to_data_folder&oldid=85164

Another example, on the official English Wikipedia:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orkut (see the template at the top)
It's a great idea! I could try to create this template, as I already have some experience with wikis (I have done 2,205 edits, mainly on the Hungarian Wikipedia).
But let's not go offtopic.

Could we set that the week starts with Monday, so Monday is the first column in the calendar?

Liked the video! Does he know that the service roads are drivable? Smile

This way of calling us stupid is not very friendly, if you've had the same problem, your comment would be different .

Mate, you COMPLETELY misunderstood my comment. I talked about GamerMuscle, who uploaded the Westhill review video.
