Thanks, it does make a difference on open configurations

Why not going with funds that already exist, such as Lens Armstrong's one? I'm sure your project would do better as a part of bigger one.

:eek: OMG! And my parents told me when I was 6 that he didn't exist...

Bugs in the fence of AS7 pit exit. Basically, the tire was able to move in the concrete fence a bit.

Noticed it when playing on an AS3 layout. First 3 screenshots are from SHIFT+U view, when I was even able to "see through the fence".

Don't know if it was already brought up

Then, let's wait and see what they will have to offer... the story so far doesn't hold water.

Quote from DeadWolfBones :That photo was around months before the announcement, and was debunked long ago.

If so, why was it offered to us (through media) as a proof that he has been murdered? What evidence can they offer now apart from "yeah, we tested his DNA and it proved it was him"?

Don't get me wrong, I am not developing any conspiracy theory, just saying I'm not buying this.

Quote from PMD9409 :Or people are just too curious and when there isn't enough information provided it is automatically proven false or is a "conspiracy theory".

"Guilty until proven innocent"

Well, isn't this a good enough proof that USA Gov is BS-ing all of us? Next thing that comes to my mind is "why would they do that?". And there you go... the whole field for all sorts of theories just opens, because THEY decided to open it with job so "intelligenty" done that it took less than 24hrs to amateurs to unmusk it.
Why would they do it??

Quote from PMD9409 :Look up the random deaths of people in the Apollo missions to the moon. There's alot of inside stuff going on, nobody can be that naive not to think that, but that doesn't mean everything is.

Interestingly, I recently came upon a documentary of Jose Escamilla. There are just too many credible people that stated that they would repeat what they said in the movie under oath in front of US Congress.
I'm not saying it is or it isn't, but just looking at the facts.

Also, Michael Moore's documentaries such as "9/11" bring much more facts that we were given by the USA Gov... and those are very strange facts that keep bringing "why" questions in my head.

If, for example, my neighbor would use such lies, I wouldn't worry... but when such an influential country does, I do worry...

It is obvious that the public has been denied the major informations on many subjects during past decades and I certainly won't buy this one as a fact, especially when there is absolutely no proof that they have actually done it.

But the question remains: why would they try to plant a poorly 'shopped photo as a proof that they killed Bin Laden?

Works fine now
The "old" file was smaller, about 6KB, this one is about 28KB.

Thank you!

Something is wrong... when I type "!rcm" I get a black-white little screen showing options "Race menu control" and "Close" only.

Saved the file racecontrol.lpr to Lapper/bin/default/includes
Edited the addonused.lpr by copying your text on first line above include( "./safetycar.lpr");

What am I doing wrong?

Tnx

Quote from sinanju :LFS RCM

OK, I've made a Race Control Manager that will do a lot of what you were wanting.

Must be used with latest version (v6.012) of LFSLapper.

May work with v6.011, but I haven't tested it with that.

I've uploaded vidio onto utube to show what it does.

Code will be placed in the LFSLapper section of the LFS Programmer part of forum.

Sinanju

That is... quite a nice and helpful tool

Throw that useless rubbish out of the window and get yourself a 8500 GT, AGP preferably and you'll be singing while having enormous fun racing in LFS.

Quote from sinanju :One thing I've noticed playing online with some of the new layouts is that, for instance, if you join a server with track AS1X, there are so many different layout possibilities that when you start in the pits there's nothing to tell the mid-race or end of race server joiners which way to go.

That's easily solvable by putting signs "keep left" and "keep right" on the pit wall or putting left/right arrows in front of each pit.

Quote from THE WIZARD DK :...but you can copy the whole game and it still is open.. dunno if that will work from pc to pc tho...

Don't think so... if I remember well, every time I reinstall Windows LFS requires me to unlock it. Also, I've tried once copying the whole folder and moved it to another comp, it was locked.

Great idea! You took absolutely most of those two tracks

However, I took the liberty to edit one point of it, if you don't mind. That's the entrance on oval from KY3 and in the same spot entrance on oval from KY2.
Did it to make the most of both corners, so no speed is lost there.

Here it is in the original: http://www.lfsforum.net/attach ... mp;stc=1&d=1303753258

And here is what I modified http://www.lfsforum.net/attach ... mp;stc=1&d=1303753258

Really hope you don't mind me messing around with your layout, only tried to improve it .

Tnx once again for you excellent job, all this goes to our team forum too

I made this Aston layout.



It's the one I like the most, very fast but pit is too tricky, especially the entrance.

If you want, I can upload it here so you could further improve it, maybe?

Tnx for your effort so far

@missing walls, "holes" in barriers etc

Guys, it has been answered already

Quote from Scawen :That would be easy to fix with a track update (that would cause incompatibility) but it's not easy to add things to fix these without a track update. I am assuming that people who create layouts will close these holes themselves. We'll check future track releases to make sure their open configs work well.

I'm getting half of fps on open configurations than on "normal" ones (tried SO and KY) and CPU works harder too. Is that how it should be?

Tnx

Hmm... so it's probably the time to go shopping for another one, as what you've described is looking as the pot has finished its life. It's skipping, loses contact when turning, that's what it appears like and that loses you a lot of time in hotlapping.

Quote from xfirestorm :When the wheel is turned it never stays in one spot, it allways moves even if I hold it very still.

It looks as if the pot is dieing
What is your wheel and for how long have you been using it? Can you take a snapshot of your settings/controls menu?

Hi!

You've already noticed some of the differences (and that's good), so you can start working on them.

First, can you set your axes to be separate? It is important, but you can still make progress as it is.

Sets can differ a lot, as probably yours and the WR holder's aren't the same, so braking force may differ too . Don't take notice on how long you both brake on that spot, try to brake a bit less than that and you'll be able to enter the corner at desirable speed. But carrying that speed through the corner is another issue and it depends a lot on the set. Sets for AS3 for most cars are very specific, since the preferable thing is to use very little downforce and rely on mechanical grip only. It is very hard to make a good AS3 set that will be competitive with all the guys who know a lot about car physics. Furthermore, even if you take the WR set doesn't mean you'll be able to drive it close to WR times. You need to practice a lot and crash dozens of cars to get the feeling which is the best and fastest way to drive through the whole track.

What wheel do you use? If it shows movements on the straights, even if you don't move your wheel, it looks like the pot in the wheel is dieing... and yes, all those small movements slow the car a bit and make you lose some time. Also, if it is so, it's not precise enough in the corners and that loses you more precious time.
So, yes... probably the time to buy a new wheel
