Quote from CozmicDragon :You can ask any licensed cruiser, they'll tell you: TC has nothing on the cracked cruise servers and never will have. The cracked servers are millions of times better.

If you cannot accept this, why don't the legit servers make an effort to improve their InSim, hire better staff and all that jazz?

Have you actually ever played on a [TC] server? This comment is unfounded and frankly insulting.

Why are demo users still allowed to post on this forum and how is this thread not locked yet?

I can't make it tonight unfortunately. Wanted to try and get 3 wins in a row but I guess I'll have to wait Tongue Have fun.

Nice one, Joni, congratulations!

If there was something like this in the UK, that would be awesome.

Quote from pantiainen :Is there an option that in TVDirector you could have the names on top of the cars while using the software? That would help people recognize the cars on the track.

No, there is no option to do this. The best you get is the name and position that appears on the bottom left of screen when a single driver is in view.

Quote from BeNoM :What does this program do?

It provides a different, more realistic way to stream races. You can see LFS TV Director in action in this recording that happened earlier this week (skip to 30:08 for the start of the race): https://youtu.be/2ZCNtfVkIug

Quote from MandulAA :0.6Q3 - strange flickering on dashboard in XFG, South City Chicane Route (SO6), Overcast Day.
It probably has something to do with the shadows/lights of the pits, because when I reached the end of the pit buildings on the right, the flickering stopped. I don't really know if this bug is new with 0.6Q3 or not.

I replicated it on 0.6Q so it's not new to this test patch.

The stream is uploading to YouTube but you can watch it back on Twitch right now:

Thank you to Ronald (n3ox) for providing the stream for both events and for helping with commentary. Thanks also to Frank (franky.s) and Connor (liv4eva) for aiding with stewarding and commentary.

Although that race definitely got messy in the middle, we hope that those involved found some enjoyment in the race.

Our GTi race is tonight! The stream will go live at around 18:45 UTC. Anyone who wishes to be interviewed on the stream during the race should be on our TS for the start of the race.

Sign up is required but it's not too late to do so, we still have plenty of spaces. See you there!

Stream (Live from 18:45 UTC): http://twitch.tv/tcracing

Not a bad solution, thanks for posting. I still reserve that separate posts with their own clear context would be nice too without occasionally having to read up through threads to work that out. Smile

I think we/I dragged this thread far enough off-topic.

Scawen/Eric, I'd be interested to know just how long the build process actually took in terms of man hours needed to convert the raw point data into the finished article, for instance how much of the conversion process were you guys able to automate? Too many questions really, but this is too interesting not to ask.

Quote from felplacerad :Rockingham, recreated in Live for Speed (Mon 21 Sep 2009)

Sure, but that's not really a blog is it. And there are lots of other really nice posts that Scawen makes/has made in the past that could do with similar treatment to that.

Edit: Alright, it's the right idea, but I like more technical posts too similar to the one Scawen made in this thread. The 'Rockingham recreated in Live for Speed' page wasn't very technical and was written for a general audience.

This stuff should be put in some sort of dev-blog. Interesting stuff, thanks Scawen.

Quote from Eclipsed :Just noticed the raceline (the famous "4" line) vanishing some distance behind sector by sector when watching someone driving from tv view. Is this intentional? I don't recall seeing this before.
Noticed that on WE1 now.

This has been around quite a long time. I imagine it is intentional as there's little point in rendering the line on parts of the track you can't currently see from your car.
