You try telling that to the finnish broadcast. Every race they make a big deal about the fact that Finland has collected more points than any other nation this year. Rosbergs points are counted for Germany. I really don't think anyone except the guys at MTV3 Max (the channel that has the most complete coverage from F1 in the world, according to them...) gives a shit.

Can't be completely happy with the result, 2nd and 4th for Finland, but ffs, a better result was expected..

YAAY! Hamilton Drive Through. I'm happy.

Yay, Kimi on pole and Hamilton 13th. I'm glad.

Heikki's struggling. Said in interview minute ago that he didn't do any mistakes, the times were just bad every time he crossed the line. So he doesn't even know what's going wrong

Jesus tapdancing Christ Turkey - Croatia!!!

Now that's a game of football. Going to PK's now.

Depends. My friend had TV in sauna, we watched WHC (=World Hockey Championships) there once, was nice. I have no idea how they did it, his dad does all kinds of crazy things in their house.

Anyone? Anything?

I tried with Open DNS, did not work. In fact, it made it worse (=could not connect to Google)

Please check your hosts file (details in the first post).

You've said that the results come back "ok", but you've not actually given the results. My guess would be that they're working, but not actually resolving to the correct addresses.

I know they're in finnish, but I think you can see what you need.

I've tried all the things mentioned, not working.

Hi ya

I've been unable connect to Master Server for a good while now, more than a year (Didn't think much of it 'cause I wasn't doing LFS anyways), and now I'd like to get back in.

I've done the tests, they come back ok, tried with Windows firewall off, have the newest version (patch Y). I can't unlock demo, can't find servers for demo, I can't even connect to LFS.net or these forums with Firefox or IE. LFSWorld I can connect.


You may wish to try using the master on the alternative port, which is 8080. To do this open cfg.txt. Find "Master Port" and change from 29339, to 8080. Save and reopen LFS. If that helps then your ISP is doing naughty things and fiddling data on certain ports.

If this doesn't work then it could be a local firewall problem. If you're in Windows, go into the Windows firewall control panel (or the control panel of whatever firewall solution you're using) and remove any reference to LFS. Reopen LFS and then ensure you're in windowed mode (shift+f4). When you make the first connection out you should get a warning asking if you want to allow LFS access to the internet. Say yes.

If this still doesn't work then it's possible that you're actually getting a response from the master, but the connection that your PC makes to each server to make the list (which is how the master list actually works) is being fiddled with. There are several reasons for this, the most common being that your ISP could be looking at "high port" traffic and throttling or blocking it. Because LFS uses a "high port" by default, there's potentially not much you can do about it except complain or persuade every server admin to run on a "low port".

That I haven't tried yet, but I've copypasted it to my email, I'll try that after I get back home.

Also, I've recently moved to my own appartement, the problem exists still. Thought it would be gone somehow after I get to new place, but no. I'm at my folks no, had the same problem here with my computer, with their laptop I have no probs at all.

Thanks for answers in advance.

Now that I've installed patch W, I can't unlock S2 anymore! I can't connect to master server, not even when I've disabled all the firewalls. I'm getting desperate...

Same problem here with my own PC. Can't connect to multiplayer nor the forums. Forums work great with my dad's laptop as you can see (using same router as my PC).

Guess I have to reformat my comp to have a race again, huh?

Welcome... to the dark side...

Nasty deformation

This one in SO Long. It's really bumpy when you break, and the track turns just a little bit right before the hairpin. It's easy to go thorugh this safely, but going it fast, it's hard. Really hard.

A. I'm not a Schumi fan, and never have been. I quite dislike the man, but I hate Alonso. So I'd rather have the prick to win the title than the ****.

He is statistically the best driver there ever was, and most likely will always be unbeaten.

Is he the greatest ever? No. Senna is.

But next year, Kimi in Ferrari and Heikki in Renault. And Alonso struggles with McLarens reliability. Going to be a great year in F1!

Chuck Norris is the reason why Waldo is hiding.

I can see the stingrays talking right after one of them killed Steve.

"DUDE!!"
"What he annoyed me"
"THAT WAS STEVE IRWING YOU ASSHOLE!!"
"WHAT! OH NO! NO! NOOO!"

then the killer stingray gets his...ass(?) kicked by the others.

RIP Steve.

Man... Losing someone in a car accident is hell. I lost my mom and sister in one, and I can safely say, what the family and friends are going through right now, is in no ways nice. It sucks, big time.

Yes, Eric has done an amazing job with the tracks. Can't wait to see the next updates.

I threw up on a pathetic LFS wannabe to stop the pain.

ehmm... That's weird...

Quote from IceMan31x :

OK so everyone is all upset over the oval deal..... well then why dont the devs come out with a 1/2 mile or 1/4 mile paved oval....

Yeah Eric can come up with 2 new environments overnight. Not a big deal.

Looks like this thread is becoming the LFS Forums official "Let's get high, eat mushrooms and post stuff to the forums"-thread.
