Quote from burnsy1882 :you're wanting that implemented in this program, or a new program?

Either or. I wont cause any clutter, and will continue in a new thread in the InSim requests section.

Cheers

Quote from mc906 :sounds kinda like the CTRA X System

Riiiiight, ok.. the only thing that it has which is *common* to these kinds of programs is the ability to rotate tracks. For the record, there were people doing "this" before CTRA.

Hey,

Will admit I havent tried this one yet, there have been a lot of new "things" over the last few days and I simply havent got to this one yet. I like the idea of the track rotator, and that the tracks are stored within a text file..

Would there be any way of making it so the order of the track's is random, not known until the next restart happens?

Cheers

Quote from mcgas001 :How do you propose people run this program? Theres no way to edit InSim port and admin password.

Not a problem* as such if the Poster provides the admin password he has hardcoded into it.

*obviously it is for security etc, but to just get it running etc..

/me thanks Fang, but rejects it.

It doesnt need to be that way. I like trying new things, so, lets hope the opening poster gets back

You sure its all there.. I get four files in the rar.. they are:

LFS_External
LFS_External_Client
LFS_External.dll
LFS_External_Client.vshost

Upon running LFS_External_Client.vshost I get a crash.

Confirmed here as Connected to a local game, but the admin command does not seem to react. However, flipcams works slightly differently, as in Flipcams uses LFS Scripts and Hotkeys rather than Insim.

Forum: Terms of Use Announcement for LFS Hosts Subforum

The LFS hosts subforum is becoming overrun with Notices about member's servers which are up for their own advertisement. It was my understanding that this section of the LFS Forums was not for the personal advertisement of servers, but for the Advertisement (with permission) of GameServer Companies offering LFS Hosting.

This is not the first time myself or another has asked for a simple stickied thread, announcement or generally a more active moderation to take place here.

I fear if this is not taken into account, it will just end up as another General LFS forum, were threads are posted for most attention.

Perhaps another subforum for Personal Server Announcements, or for Server Help would help to bring the LFS Hosts section of the LFS Forums back to its original focus and target group.

@ Poster above. Post reported. There is no need for that what-so-ever.

Heiko1 why are you trying to bring badness and.. taunting? So its bad, and? You really do need to take a look in the mirror.

My advice.. dont like it, stay away. Simple.

Quote from DarkTimes :Here's a thought, why don't all your cruise programmers and users get together and make an open-source cruise project for the community? It would be a good experience for you all and I'm sure it would be very popular. Also, I'm confident you would get a lot of help from the other 'non-cruise' programmers on the forum, as I'm sure we would be happy to stop all these 'where do I get an InSim?' threads. As I say, it seems like a good idea to me, if someone was willing to set it up and take charge of it (Note: before you ask, that person's not me ).

+1 Was just about to post that myself DarkTimes. It is an excellent idea, but alas, I dont think it will either be picked up on OR given the chance of life by the rest of the community.

Fantastic post.. Lets say.. Just for instance that not everyone has the time, or wishes to be redirected to another thread. If you had read this thread you would have seen the amount of work thats been put into it and the amount of questions and answers given here.

Once again, I doubt very much you have read the thread before posting.

Quote from The General Lee :We should abuse you...Your server is shocking!

The "inSim" is amazingly bad and I was actually in a lot of pain laughing at you and your admins.

Have you done better? Suggestion: do so before pointing and laughing.

Have a read, see if anyone else has had the same issues as you do.. I had a quick look at the other thread, but stopped when I seen WINE. I did some testing for a server company a while back, and they were using WINE. Always had some kinda issue there.

But back to topic, ask in the lapper thread, they will help you

Not sure on that, I seem to remember it being longer than that, but thats something to be looked up.

On first look, your Server Name appears like it may be too long, for arguement's sake, try something shorter.

Where is the server running? As in is if from your own pc or is it hired from a company - If its from a company, contact them, they should support your query. If its from your own computer, you need to make sure the port (63392) in this case is open and accepting connections.

(I feel this may be a local server as the port used in the config, seems too high and close to default to be from a company, but I could be wrong).

Max cars in race is incorrect. For demo you can have 16 connections, but still only 11 cars in the race.

Rest of it is fine.

You cannot "get rid" of restart or qualify voting. You can however set the period of time that the host will wait, as in not allow a restart vote to be valid. To do this, set the following lines in the config file:

// no restart within X seconds of race start
/rstmin=60

// no restart within X seconds of race finish
/rstend=30

Login with the admin password for the server and type the following:

/vote=no

Hi,

Just started to look at this. Noticed in the config file there is an option to set the Insim Prefix (default $), and when typing $ in game, its not displayed in the text.. but are there some kinda in server commands?

And are they documented anywhere?

Thanks.
