I've also had a problem with my shifter. I don't remember exactly which gears didn't work, but I think it was 5th and 6th and reverse.

The ring, which holds the leather surrounding the stick under the knob was loose (it is only fixed by some glue). I noticed it when shaking the shifter. It fell down the stick and blocked it in its movements. I took the knob off and removed the ring, now everything is working fine.

If S3 comes 2007/2008 everything is just fine.

I wonder what happens after S3. It would be so nice to see LFS will be released as open-source, say 3 Years after S3. This way LFS would never get old.

-1 for Teamspeak/Ventrilo integration, +1 for realistic radio communication ("frequency" or "station"-based).

Quite a while ago, i've also had a dream about LFS.
It has been caught on tape: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vbjas6AAVK0

Quote from jamesgp2viper :Is the default exhaust pulse sound available? I would like to apply a mild overdrive distortion to the default wave to make the race cars sound a bit more beefy, without resorting to clipping.

Just click on the small "S" buttons on the right to export the default sounds.

For official plate layouts!
Or skinnable plate layouts, if there are legal issues...
Connect lfsworld "chatterbox" with master server "meeting room"

This would be great. Maybe the all-time empty meeting room will be used a little bit more.

It would be cool, if anything written in the meeting room appears in the chatterbox, and other way round.

Quote from GrandSurf :I found this great Plugin for rFactor (Video). Can anyone help me, to made this tool for LFS over Outgauge? More Infos here.

Hi,

I did something recently which is exactly what you need to do this. You have "virtual gauges" which can be configured (colors, size, position, etc) and placed in a window/on a screen. It includes 7-Segment displays as well as analog gauges, rpm-bars, etc. Maybe I find some time between christmas and the new year to get it to a releaseable state.

Quote from filur :
Tweaker is right, if it ends up being "T1" i guess most people would agree the corner is still unnamed.

-1

For any other "first" corner thats true, but NOT for Blackwood GP "T1". It is most likely the oldest named corner in LFS. It is also the FIRST corner, everyone new to LFS sees when entering the game. I for myself remember calling it "T1" since somewhere around 2003.

"There's not a single suggestion you haven't already voted for!"



Folks, come up with a few more suggestions, please.

Hey! This is really great work! You definately know how to do things the right way.

My feature request: "My Suggestions" which shows an overview of all your suggested names with their position in the ranking.

Nice!
Could you please post which mac you use?

And input device. Wheel?

Oops, now I noticed that CrossOver is wine, too. And it's the commercial version from the authors of wine. So I bet it should be possible to run lfs with it, too. Even if lfs doesn't have an installer.

I heard that parallels does not have 3d-acceleration support, yet. You could try "darwine" which is a "wine" implementation for intel macs. (http://darwine.opendarwin.org/)

Quote from Jakg :like it - but the server need a LOT more bandwidth to download the textures.

Not really. Because the server would only send identifiers (filename, url, or such) to the client and the client would download it from lfsworld or elsewhere. At least thats the way skin downloading works.

I would expect the following behaviour: If I join a server which uses custom DDS, LFS asks me if I want to download them.

+1 from me.

Quote from Horci :
I hope you will upgrade the GUI

No, I won't, sorry.
As I wrote earlier, I really don't feel like I want to dive deeper into the J2ME-Hell.

I uploaded the sourcecode, so maybe there are people who would like to continue the project.

Quote from Horci :I tried the LFSMon, and it almost works

- Installed Python 2.5 + PlyBluez
- Intalled LFSMon.jar on my phone (N6630), and after that I executed it.
- Started LFSMon.py ... It made connection with my phone.
- Set the outgauge port in the cfg.txt to 21567 (what said the LFSMON.py's command line )

- Nothing happened :S

Did i forgot anything?

Did you join a race once you were connected? (Just in case...)

Settings in cfg.txt:

OutGauge ID 0
OutGauge Mode 2
OutGauge Port 21567
OutGauge Delay 3
OutGauge IP 127.0.0.1

If your LFSMon.py does not run on the same host LFS is running, set OutGauge IP to the ip adress of the other host. Also, change line 15 of LFSMon.py: replace 'localhost' with the ip address of the host running the script (do not remove the ').

It is also possible that the Java app does not work for your mobile. I've only tested it with a SE K800i and Siemens S65.

Good Luck

PS. Please don't expect too much, as it is a proof of concept and not a finished app. Thx.

Quote from thisnameistaken :Isn't Python pretty common on handhelds these days?

Indeed it is. There is python for win CE, palm, nokia series 60, PSP, and more (http://www.awaretek.com/pymo).
Anyway, these implementations aren't really standardised. AFAIK, each of them uses an own graphics-API, which makes platform-independent development quite hard.
(But believe me, if I would own any of those, there would be an outgauge-display for it! )

Java/J2ME is available and has the same API on almost every mobile phone/handheld, thats what I meant.

Quote from the_angry_angel :Exactly

Damn, you've found me out. I really don't like Java

Same for me. I hate Java, and J2ME is pain in the a**! :banghead:

Unfortunately it is the most "pervasive solution" for mobile devices IMHO.

Quote from the_angry_angel :
You mean what appears to be a "fully working" application? Nothing as far as I can see. Or do you mean one that doesn't use bluetooth?

Hm, I'm bold enough to say that my proof of concept works well. Someone with J2ME-experience, especially graphics programming, could indeed create something which is closer to a usable app compared to the stuff I've posted.

Quote from the_angry_angel :
Either way, I'm afraid I don't have a java capable phone,

This is no excuse, as the J2ME toolkit comes with an emulator. :haha:

Quote from the_angry_angel :I'm sure someone else can help / assist though

Well I hope that, too.
