but that would be THE hammer...
dont you think?

hey but who are we to complain about that, since we're in a friendly dictatorship...

/sacrasm

does your social-life happen?
but sth like this was there, called "autobahnraser" where you drive from cologne to hamburg for example.

the correct tyre specs are missing

Quote from Jo-Chen :

If only! But seriously, I think there are a lot of possible improvements that don't affect the framerate more than -5%. (Percentage arbitrarily chosen, no guarantee)

so be it, but like most of the options triggerable please...

talking about corners, i've come to the conclusion that it comes down to straighten out every corner.
that's done by wide-in, hit the apex, wide-out.
the small differences that give you extra controlled speed during these corners are mostly unknown to me yet.

Quote from kamo2000 :

nice..one of the best..u can up it to movies pit if u want :]

just to annoy me, how much space is within Movies pit ?
and how is it organized?

if a viewer helps?
it canNOT edit the file just view...
freeware like Excel-Viewer

or even worse, a body-set-to ground effect at high speeds.

interesting piece of work...
found this myself believe or not, problem was to assign the mouseX to steering, since it is just grey (not clickable no nothing)...

so how did you accomplish that?
or am i just to impatient?

Forget it... guess what just happened

Ok, got them together, (a bit fiddling thou but this will get better in time) now all i need is some device that makes my ass shake (for knowing when the rear is on an overtake-attempt)
or sth else FF capable...

now i can understand all you wheel fanatics, controlled throttle and brake is a "must-have" for besttimes

Quote from Breizh :

Let me know if you don't mind sending me a copy.
In the career mode's last season, Nussbaum used to beat me by the tiniest margins. I played by keyboard, now I'd like to try it again, but the backup I'd made is corrupted.

i have a copy, but it's not fun running it with winNT 5.1 since the sound is crippled and crackels all trough the game.
this happend on all kinds of audio A/D converters. onboard/plug-in cards.
it's around 30MB zip file now, i can mail it in 5MB pieces...
pm me if you want it...

besides i don't think it's abandonware by now.

IF he's referring to post #6 then i don't get it...
take a look around there are many "crackers" with rev-engineering abillities.
it's THE abillity to understand code from other people.
you can't rebuild/recreate what you don't understand in the first place.
and therefore you can program your own "track-layouter" if you understand the concept of data organization in these *.lyt files.
to think that you actually need lfs for creating your layouts is just d***.

thx it's just i'm much more into talking to people than to google (lazyness)

that i know, but not wich post in special he meant...

may be an old text to you, but quite funny... *G*

well ok i see it's quite pointless to change the mesh, as it's really easier to apply the dirt or raindrops via a meterial layer.
So this leads me to the question how to define that mat. since cinema has no V-ray plug-in, or i didn't found it yet.
so please help me XCNuse.

wich one in particular are you referring to?

me uses 2mbit/s for dvd archival since i'm too lazy to switch discs for watching a movie.
1,2Mbit/s for quarter-sized (384*288 -black bars) analog tv recordings (due to very little picture snow)
combined with v-dubs internal "temporal smooth" filter @ level2

well then how about using longer names filled with "spaces" and a "*" at both sides since the names are usually shown earlier as the car model?
as an aditional hint next to honk and engine sound of other cars...

yeah and you can run MacOS on apple machines only...

try monkey's Audio

in comparsion with others (flac, wavpak, shorten, etc...) best compression achieved at "high" theres an "insane" level wich makes your files even a bit smaller but decoding takes twice as long then.
monkey's audio is a math-correct-reversible-enocoder.

Means what u put in, comes out 100% exactly the same. (try md5 hashes)
before, and after encoding/decoding cycle.
has error detection (wav hasn't).

Only reasonable if a certain music addiction was detected

otherwise use vbr mp3 encoding from 160 to 192 kbp/s

but it uses way to much bitrate due to outdated encoding tech.
imagine a bouquet of 4 diff channels sharing 18Mbp/s, when 2 of them show footballgames, racings and the other two a fast movie (many scene changes, rushed cam movements/zooming).

besides dvb-t/s/c looks AWFUL in direkt compare to dvd encoding wich is actually slightly different, thats why you can't easily dismantle the recorded-TS.
The bitrate is nearly the same but looks bad.
i've seen digital broadcast from other countrys and some are doing a way better job...

Quote from Vain :

You do realize that mpeg2 is currently on DVDs, VCDs, and is being broadcasted using DVB-T all over germany, and propably will be for the next 30 years?
So much for outdated.

Vain

outdated and easy to DECODE, pal, try to decode 50/60 fps HI-def h-264 material on the fx-60 or the newest single core intel...

then go crying...

hrm:

mx-5 miata mk II
tank leopard II (against park-fines) [hrhr try to hook that one up]
tank t-90
some stretch
s-ton (merc) (for mid-range travelling)
rx-8 (drift attempts)
supra (the one from nfs-u II)
some old army jeep (camping)
a taxi+driver (for lazyness)
some nice 650cc motobike (for trafficjams)

well, yes...
(i know tanks aren't cars, but i want them)
