Quote from Bose321 :Yep I know. I tested on boost 22.
Also did the skin change (now back to normal)
And I did the Display Digital Stream Information trick

Fair enoughh.
I find that if you use the second skin for quite a long time, when you swap back to the normal skin, it suddenly seems much much louder. Although thats just because of the two different ways they go up in volume.

Also dont do boost 22 too much, especially when you've only just got your speakers, the z5500's need something like 3000 hours play time before they are properly warmed up, or something like that, i read it somewhere.
But yeah boost 22 for prolonged ammounts of time can damage your speakers.

Quote from G!NhO :This one is better imo, make sure you put it on HQ

I prefer this one, although both songs make everyshake insanely.
Although it seems extremely extremely quiet compared to my music player.

Btw BOSE theres a few hidden extra's in the control pod for the z5500's

One of them is simply twist your volume to full, then carry on twisting, you will go past full volume and you can go up to boost + 11.
Another secret is if your using the orange, green and black cables (which you are) then when you reach boost + 11, hold down the mute button and spin the volume up, this way you can get to boost +22.

This is a secret to change the skin of your z5500 pod, when its off press Input + Effect + Settings + Mute at the same time and hold them all for 6 seconds. It should flash and then you get a new skin, the off colour is now a pink instead of red. And the volume bar is replaced with a different kind of volume bar, which gives you more control at lower volumes but less control at higher volumes.

Quote from Joe_Keaveney :Show off.

Hell yeah haha, i payed a crazy ammount for mine, and i was one of the first batch of people in the uk to get one.
So of course im gonna show off haha :P
The only drawback is that its only 60gb, and right now i have just under 1gb left .
But then again, i do have 20gb partitioned away for linux which i really need to get rid of.

Quote from DieKolkrabe :Standard VGA, I already have a tuner box that connects PS2 to PC monitor with a switch, my (flawed?) logic being that I could connect PS3 to that?

You should be able to just use the cable that plugs into the back of the PS2, as in the back of my PS3 it has a port thing for HDMI and for the same kind of cable the PS2 uses, unless the new PS3's dont have that in the back of them. But i know mine does :/


Edit:

Ignore the three cables on the right.
Look at the cable on the left, do you have a cable like that which goes into the back of your PS2?
Because if so, then as long as your PS3 has the exact same space in the back for that cable. Then a simple plugging that cable into your PS3 will work fine

Quote from DieKolkrabe :LOL Migz

As in, what's the essential upgrade to get started for winning races?

There isnt really an essential upgrade.
Just find the stuff thats cheapest which improves your bhp majorly, and reduces your kg majorly.
But try not to go over the 300bhp mark.
Which is rather hard because if you are at where im at, where im at 300bhp but ive still got ALOT of weight, i can now only buy parts which remove kg and dont give bhp, and there arent that many parts which do that.

Quote from DieKolkrabe :I'll enter one

Once I do my Cossie which could take a while, what's best in terms of speed/handling?

Preferebly a car with an engine and wheels which turn?
I dont quite get what you mean by whats best in terms of speed/handling?


Also theres a new feature, well its more like two old features merged together.

Either way Custom Work Garage Is Now Open!

Quote from DieKolkrabe :Is it worth keeping my PS2 then?

May as well keep it, just incase they dont make any emulation sort of thing.

This is why i love my PS3, it's one of the first ones, and one of the few ones which is 60GB, has all the memory card readers, is fully backwards compatable and has 4USB slots. Along with HDMI Out and Optical Out.

Quote from DieKolkrabe :Hmm, does anyone know what the cheapest price I can get for a good PS3 is?

I'm gonna offer the guy on eBay £50-100 for it, but if I can get one for cheaper/quicker

I'd say just get that, i doubt your going to get a PS3 for much cheaper then that.
BUT dont listen to me, because the last time i checked how much a PS3 cost was when i bought mine a few years ago, and back then it was around £500.
So by now the prices have gone down :/ Just god knows by how much.

Quote from JJ72 :PS3 have garunteed performance and pretty much bug free, but I am more inclined to the mouse and keyboard control scheme on the PC.

The PS3 should have garunteed performance.
But GTA IV can still lag.
If you decide to drive on the pavement and run over lots of people then you can start to lag.
If you do anything which requires lots of physics calculations then GTA will lag a bit, even on the PS3

Godamnit.
This must be my 5th or 6th time of saying it.

You CANNOT pay other members to do your car for you.
Currently we dont have a section for this, so your not allowed.
So right now either another member does it for free, or it doesnt get done at all.

Give me a few days and ill have a section up where other members can do work for you

Edit: DieKolkrabe, you start off living in the back seat of your car . Then if you want a proper house just go to housing and then buy a house like you would anything else.

Quote from mutt107 :could anyone paint this
this color please?

id be willing to pay 1,500

You're not allowed to pay members for anything yet.
So you cant get somebody else to do something for you and pay them for it. But if somebody wants to do it for you anyways for free, then thats fine.

Quote from pearcy_2k7 :Don't think i cba doin it all again the adding up, putting everything down you've bought just takes the micky for me. Would be good to have buttons to click on each part and it just does it automatically.

We tried this at one point, but Andy did it badly and it kept crashing.
I could try and do it again, but it would take OH SO MUCH effort. And itd mean everybody would have to re sign up again.

Quote from Furiously-Fast :Oh no, we broke the shoutbox, so post here instead!

Gj on the w.i.p. site facelift migz.

Edit: lol, it has gone back to the way it was?!

Yup haha, it seems everybody has hit the 60 posts per hour limit.
And yeah i changed the look, but it looked fugly imo, the banner didnt fit in well with it, so i changed it back.
It's imposible to find good quality skins for this version of this forum. So instead im just going to replace the images which arent showing with some ones ive made.

Yup i was originally going to do a full account reset so everybodies account gets deleted, but then i wanted to try to do just a cash reset as everybody would have preferred that, but i realised its way too much work compared to a simple account deletion so now im going with a full account reset.

ALL accounts besides Admin and Premium Members will get deleted.
Premium members have to contact me asap after the reset to have their old account deleted and have their new account premium'onized.

And yes Split-Second has been banned, he had multiple accounts.... One called "G-Mac" which had also been banned and when i asked him about why him AND G-Mac had the same birthdays he said he didnt know who it was, then a minute later he said it was his cousin, but then after i did more probing on mcw i found that G-Mac and Split-Second had the same emails so i banned him.
Although ive got to say i did give him a chance, he found out about our posts on the lfs forum and read them and started to call me a stuck up moderator (and then stuck up admin) behind me back, and even though he did that i said he could still stay as a moderator if he acted like a proper moderator. He replied with id rather be an admin (OH THE CHEEK!)
Then after some more talking he said he would be an admin if he didnt have to do any serious jobs, i asked him what a serious job would entail and he listed pretty much every single moderator job.
Either way i've banned him now but i feel rather sorry for him, i honestly think he has some sort of mental disease. He constantly lies, he lies about everything!

All of you know how he was saying he had a Dodge Ram on MCW, thats absolute bull and we all know it.
Also click here and you can se ... y else knows he is lying.
Then he lies about his girlfriend, im not sure wether he is lying or just genuinly believes this woman is his girlfriend but he has told me that Mary Elizabeth Winstead is his girlfriend and that apparently she is acctually pretty good at pixelling.


Either way we are better off without him.


Oh and also the reset should hopefully be happening today.

Quote from Furiously-Fast ::woohoo:

Haha sorry about this but ive changed my mind again.
I would prefer just a cash reset, but there are over 900 members and there is no way i can reset their sigs/profiles/avatars ect all at once.

So this is the plan, and this is how it WILL stay.

All accounts will be deleted besides Admin accounts and Premium User accounts.
Premium Users will have to contact me after the reset to get their account deleted and then their new account turned into a premium account again.
Otherwise if their original accounts arent deleted then they can get amazing jobs as jobs are now based on how long you have been signed up for.

Sorry about that but its the easiest way to do it.
