Hey again, Everyone is getting spectated for false starts leaving pits, I apparently have it "false" but it still persists to spec people.

# Always spectate for false start - boolean
# Send to pitlane for false start - boolean
# Could be good for short races or for having race without penalties.
SpecFalseStart=false
PitFalseStart=false

It is the default setting so I assume it's correct.

Cheers!

Hey thanks for the reply.

I tried and tried to do it by deleting text heheh. In the long-run I only needed a # in the ad-dons used.

# Admin GUI
include ("./gui_admin.lpr"); # Admin GUI root include
#include ("./gui_admin_membership.lpr"); # Admin GUI Membership administration
nclude ("./gui_admin_handicaps.lpr"); # Admin GUI Handicap allocations

Quote from cargame.nl :

You mean automatically use that information inside another var?

No that is not possible. You have to 'manually' repeat that information again if you want to have it in Motd.

Oh OK, when the ButtnMotd box pop's up, how would I go about getting names in there? (Manually)

It's pretty much so others can see if they are on the race list.

Cheers!

EDIT: Got it..all good.

Is it possible to remove the Welcome-screen?

I tried and get this.

EDIT: i managed to remove the text but the buttons are still there, How can I remove this so lapper starts without the accept deny buttons?

Got another Q,

where I have:

# These lines will appear as buttons to everyone connecting to the
# server, allowing for communicating some must-read info - string(s)
# Use "ButtnMotd=+text" to define text for individual buttons.
ButtnMotd=

Is it possible to display all the Registered Users from here:

# Enter usernames of drivers registered for some event, separated
# by comma (,) or as separate items - string
# Output of !rsb and !rtb commands will be limited to these people,
# also !rexp data will include only these.
RName=


(So when they press "OK" and the window pops up, it displays names from the Rname=...)

Cheers!

Hi, Awesome insim app!

I want to add a button but when I do, it either doubles it up on one line, or repeats whats after the + symbol..

Can ya fill this in so I know? Cheers !

# Large button(s) to be shown to everyone after connecting - string
# Create more buttons (max 5) by using starting/concatenating '+'.
# If also ButtnMotd (see next item) is defined, it will be shown after
# clicking OKd below these large buttons.
ConnectBtn=+HERE I WANT A BUTTON
AND HERE

Instead it come up in LFS as " HERE I HERE I + or HERE HERE+
instead of whats it's meant to be.

Cheers, Tim.

EDIT: It's all good, got it. ++

Quote from cargame.nl :

I couldn't do? Do you really think it's that complicated to use Photoshop and a plugin? You are overrating yourself a bit.

Like I said, it's not supported so worthless to spend any time on it, probably why this thread also already is six years old. Goodbye. *Unfollows thread*

Any one who writes such comments as yours, obviously couldn't do it.

Or you would't have replied with,

"Multiple layer coatings are not supported by LFS, so this is quite a ridiculous topic."

"so you upload a JPG and suddenly it has multiple layers.. Come on."

Over-rating my-self? You clearly no nothing about what your talking about and someone needed to explain.

It is supported, the part your talking about is uploading it so everyone can see,( Look at me Look at me ).

I'm flattered that it took 6 years for a chameleon skin to be put up. , I have only been Editing for under a year, and only seen this thread post about a week ago.


In future, Don't "hate comment" on posts/threads that you clearly don't know anything about.Or learn to criticize constructively.

"it's not supported so worthless to spend any time on it"- Words of a future failure.

Quote from cargame.nl :

How do you upload to LFSWorld?

Exactly.

About your kids remark, you was still in the sandbox when I made my first colors on the television screen with a ZX Spectrum.

edit: sandbox? lol.. Not born

I didn't say anything about uploading them.

If your going to refer to a T.V built in the early 50's, as a maturity level indicator, your maturity level is more like a Sony Bravia.

Or, you have spent 50+ years learning nothing, and try to tell someone who clearly learnt a bit about the subject in their 20 odd years of living that it's wrong?


I simply tried to do what the creator of this thread wanted.

(Something you couldn't do)

Quote from Flame CZE :

The mip maps on the DDS skin also change when changing the distance from the car, so it does not look good indeed. But good idea by SEV7N.

Heheh I expected that, as the idea originated from the animated objects, I thought the mipmaps only went by distance, but somehow the skin goes by angle as well. Cool concept though. Cheers!

Quote from cargame.nl :

Right, so you upload a JPG and suddenly it has multiple layers.. Come on.

It's a DDS file for starters. All DDS files have 13 Layers called mipmaps.
There isn't 1 .jpeg in there.

I have no time to explain to kids. Go learn some.

LOL- atleast try the files before you run your mouth.

Quote from cargame.nl :

Multiple layer coatings are not supported by LFS, so this is quite a ridiculous topic.

What do you mean? Ridiculous? This thread made gave me inspiration to try.

These skins change color depending on what angle you look at it.

I'm not sure what you mean by "multiple layer coatings" but if you look into "mipmap" a bit, you might find LFS, and most other games out there, have "multiple layer coatings". 13 Layers to be exact.

Hey, i managed to make a chameleon paint skin that changes color depending on what angle you look at it.

It's a bit tricky as whatever the top coat is, it blends with the 2nd coat.
(Blue top coat and red bottom coat= Purple chameleon).

I recommend trying the black one first.

DDS needs to be placed in SKINS_DDS folder.


I am trying to figure out how to make the color transitions less pixel-ed.

THIS DOES NOT REPLACE ANY FILES. IT IS A SKIN FILE.

Hey, I have made a few just to test what its like, a bit tricky as whatever the top coat is, it blends with the 2nd coat.

(Blue top coat and red bottom coat= Purple chameleon).

PLACE IN SKINS_DDS not SKINS FOLDER.

The black one works great I reckon.

I figured something pretty cool!

you can edit each mipmap in the skins_dds folder to make your own chameleon paint!

Also, you can make realistic decals with reflection (like a chrome sticker) with the Alpha channel, Its the same concept as skins in "that other game"

Hi, is there a way to quicken up the transition speed to the next mipmap?

In videos I have seen the transition to be nearly instant, only needing to walk away or towards the object a little bit ( a few steps and its done its fading transition)

Thanks 1000000!

PreStageSystem® in top post.

Included in Animated-Objects 1.0 (full-release)

Quote from MousemanLV :

Very well done ! Looking forward to see new updates and video presentations

Thanks, I'm getting there

I will use fraps next time.

Hi, I have managed to make some cool animated objects, I plan to do as many as i can.

Here is a video to show the concept.
https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?v=432090780161147

Just in case you cant reach the video,I have uploaded a DDS file for you to try it.

When your placing an object in LFS Autocross, Select "Markers" or "Cones". ( I haven't done any others yet, these were a test ).


Marker 100 - marker 25 needs to be aligned to spell THE HOME OF ANGLE. (Does't NEED to but it's what it is)

Marker S2 R is a stop sign.

Marker R L is a caution light.

The green Cone and post are also animated.

After placing them down, drive around and see what happens.
-You need to move towards or away from the objects. No movement = No Animation.

*****NONE OF THESE YOU ARE TESTING OR VIEWING ARE IN THE FULL RELEASE.*****






This is a Preview of the Full-Release version

PreStageSystem™

Auto Power on - for each individual person
Dynamic Lights - ( It's red if your not close enough, 2 orange lights telling you your in the stage area, and a green set for when you are staged correctly)

More Soon!

Thanks!

Quote from Flame CZE :

Because that's what /echo function is for

Makes sense! heheh

Quote from Flame CZE :

Well, /echo displays the text only on your screen.

Oh, that's lucky then.



EDIT: just wondering, why is it only displayed on my screen?

The /msg command is also bugged, on any server you can do the /echo command and it will display a message from the dedi server. ( Can be really funny)

eg

There's joe and bob, both non admin. Bob can go /echo joe : Im the best at Driving who wants to race me.

and it wiil display it as

JOE : Im the best at Driving who wants to race me.
even though BOB is doing the typing.

you can use ^7 for colors which makes it easy to replicate others names.

A good one that made me crack up is /echo ^5JOE has logged in as Admin.



Scary huh!

Hey, I had this problem aswell.

FIX: LFS>OPTIONS>CONTROLS AXIS- Pull the e-brake ALL the way back, While holding it on, Click The "C" (centre) button on the axis you use for E-Brake.

Should be done

The ebrake applying itself when you stop..Thats a lil funny

If i understand properly heheh.
