Try the LFS Manual first for hosting help

Quote from zeugnimod :

I wonder the same.

The elitist sounding youtube information kinda put me off of the video.

Totally, and it didnt inspire me to "jump in lfs and give it a try" the same way as "real" close racing in an XFG would.

I never said nor implied you were an idiot, dont put words into my mouth.

What I was saying is that if you were on Z4 like you say, you got the message because the host you were trying to connect to (from your screenshot) was a newer host than the current version of LFS you were on. Thus, upgrading to the latest version available would remove that particualar issue.

I am not an idiot either.

EDIT: I didnt see the other replies before I posted my response, but my post stands.

Upgrade to Z8, problem solved... Sometimes previous test patches are not compatable with more up to date ones..

As far as im aware these days, if you set your server to Blackwood GP Standard, and use the XFG, XRG?? or FBM and use no layout objects, "licenced" demo drivers can see the server and join and race etc..

I could have that wrong and if so, some correction please..

Yep, just "discovered" it myself and it was kinda relevent so thought i'd mention it.

Yes.. I tried Z and its the same car gets in jumpy mode near gates. Is it just me? Anybody else tried that?

Also gears cannot be changed and rev counter jumps from 0 to 1000 rpm at 5 Hz

I can confirm this on patch Z (just Z no test patches).

The first screenshot shows no texture (or the tarmac doesnt have the properties of tarmac at that point). The second showing the part of the road which is falldown-able.

Congrats from drivenbypassion Happy birthday guys!!

Login with the admin password and then type /cars=XFR

Thank you all for the positive comments and good wishes We hope we see you in 2009 events !

Later today, drivenbypassion will become two years old .

Over the past two years there have been a great many times where this team has supported all of its members personally, well beyond the "bounds" of an online racing team. We are a family, and we have grown together.

It feels great to get to this milestone and with the hope and solid grounding of many more to come.

Later we release the traditional website update and also a brand new set of skins along with many more supprises created for our dbp Family.

Please join me in wishing our 12 members a great birthday, and best wishes for the Christmas Season, and the new year to come.

drivenbypassion is:

Bozo, B-rad, DrDink, Flip, Kringle, Mike, Phil, Serpentine, Skinny, Sly_Guy, Stoney and Zomah

Thanks to you all for making this team what it is, and to the rest of you, Seasons Greatings

Your control panel looks nice and simple, best of luck to you!

Personally, I think it should be hard than it is (more requirements) to post on lfs world about the existance of a team. Or a system like the newest additions to the LFS News section, where stories are verified by staff before publication..

Its a grey area on lfs world.. I dont think its inclusion there is "vital" for the lfs dev's but then why is it there at all.. It could be cleared out if a mod were to take over its management.

Sorry, can you expand on what this is/does/fixes please?

Wet please! Or at least wet weather textures.. supprised that hasnt been done already considering the other texture mods out there.

Quote from Catrik :

I just don't see how I could play sims without those :/

When you dont have the money to afford them, you find ways

DFP is one of the best budget wheels around.. Ebay is always a good first place to look, and those 2nd hand pc games shops that sprout up around city centres. My best buy was a DFP with a few games for just 15 quid!

The G25 however, has come down in price a lot lately, and perhaps even more so before christmas!

Hi there,

Its not a stupid question, at this time its not possible to get more cars than are in the actual game, but with 20 cars to choose from within S2, it will take a while to get bored

Quote from hayward :

Hey,

Would anybody be interested in hosting a cruise server in return for admin rights on the server.

Some of you may remember me for [CC]Chronic-Cruise, basically i completly scrapped that idea, and decided to go for something new so i have come up with Cruise-Nation. I am currently writing a new insim and am currently 75% complete with it. We also have a website being designed at coded.

Server Required would have to be 24/7 with at least a 10mb connection.


Please let me know if anyone is interested.

Thanks Logic

Hello hayward,

Its always good to share news etc, but please bare in mind that you are posting in the LFS Hosts Forum, of which the forum description states "A section for discussing LFS-host related topics, such as administration tips and tricks / administration tools / techincal problems. This section is not meant to spam about your newly created host!"

Now Im not saying your post is "spamming", but it doesnt offer anything other than news of your project, which isnt yet finished, and it is asking if there is interest in someone supplying you with a server, I would imagine for free..

Best of luck with that proposal, but why not try something different, be the first to offer more than "admin control" over anything running on the server (because lets face it, whoever owns the server will have admin access regardless of it you want them to or not). Why not do something different, offer payment to the server owner, or better still, rent a server from a provider and then you have no ownership issues whatsoever

Quote from Kirill.D :

Only one question ... what the h*ll for ? (No, it's not flaming, it's curiosity) Why the hell everyone want's his own "cruise server" even now there is ****load of them...

Post reported, lately your posts, the choice of "naughty" words has been, really quite crap. Please take the time to watch your mouth. If you dont have anything nice to say.. Suck a lemon.

Sure sounds like it to me!

Approx 15% Air Intake on the FOX in my experience. Have tested this a little in preperation for a 2009 event.

Quote from banshee56 :

US servers not available anymore....

I've not spoken to Franky about this particular matter, however, it may not mean they are "not available anymore", it could be that after the webserver was rebuilt, Franky may have just wanted to get things "running" again and could have forgotten, or not gotten around to adding this back in yet...

Or I could just be talking bullshit

Ive asked my own question... Yes, indeed you can

Just a quick question, and sorry if i've missed it, but is it possible to add more than one set of results to each new post?

EG the current league im running has three races per session..?

Excellent Stuff Victor. One small thing.. when there is an error (for example in my case when adding an lfs user to edit and add news to a league ive added, i spelt the username wrong). The positioning of where it returns the error report isnt very clear (to me), perhaps it could be coloured Red, or Bold, or positioned above / below the submit button.
