the same problem here too.. and no it's not my OC'ing..i tried without it and the freeze is still there... i've never had an problem before the patches , nor with my all other games that are heavy CPU/GBU demanding too like flight sims , other racing sims and all kinda heavy games...so i DO know it's not my PC..oh , yeah , and it's not overheating

terrible jaggies on the shots..try to crank up the AA to take screenshot from replays..

i liked the second series..

well, i'll tell ya what.. i got the exact same issue.. and it's really gettin on my nerves now... 10 sec freezes and whatnot, and you name it.. and it also happens while im online...

dont tell me it's my overclockin , cos i tried with none to no avail..plus, i have no problem whatsoever with all my games that include heavy flight sims and all sort of intensive CPU/GPU games... so what the heck is wrong with LFS ?

ecni, do you have an nforce3 MB ?

i cant read that without spacing.. jeez !!

Quote from MagicFr :

are u kidding the GTT is faster now, but the RB4 is still way behind

what's that "test drive" link in your signature for ? are you trying to get people used to some arcade flavors ?

Quote from shim :

right click my computer/manage/event viewer/application

i couldnt find any error related to the game or the time i was runing LFS when it crashed..

i tested withno overclockin whatsoever..the game still crash randomely as i stated before. well, i think im gonna give up here..hopefully somethin will be done and if not i'll move to somethin else.

some people are just too mysterious...

Quote from shim :

Scawen, ive checked me event logger within XP, cause i have been gettin crashes now and then (since the new patches), and according to the event viewer, its Xfire thats causing it for me..


Faulting application lfs.exe, version 0.0.0.0, faulting module xfire_toucan_19304.dll, version 1.0.0.19304, fault address 0x000201af.


if ya need more info bout this mate, gimmme a hola somehow and ill try and see wha i can do for ya

where can i bring up that windows logger ?

Quote from Scawen :

Have you tried turning off the overclocking?

I don't mean to be rude but it has happened so many times in the past, some people who are overclocking have freezes and crashes. And they always deny that the overclocking could possibly have anything to do with it.

Well, maybe they just give overclocking a bad name, but yeah I can't really consider anything to be a bug, if it's on a overclocked computer.

well, i've never had any problem with any other games... i'm gonna turn the OC'ing Off just to make sure it has nothin to do with it..

Quote from ORION :

Looks like the solution is already in your signature. I would bet that its a heat problem. Im using a 6800GT myself, also at 400/1200, but to reach this, Im cooling it with water

well, i dont wanna disapoint you..but it's not my OC'ing..i know what im talkin about dude..

i also noticed it happens when i crash into somebody... and this issue was mentioned before and was supposed to be adressed i guess...but it seems not.. those freezes are really getting on my nerve now

Quote from Scawen :

I don't think you can mean T2, i think you must mean S or T, because you've only had about 5 minutes to test this one!

Please be very very specific about exactly which version you are talking about, not "the latest one" or "the recent one". I need to know the patch letter and number, in every bug report, or I will just get confused.

of course i did mean T2, i meant S and T patch...thing is it still does crash on T2 i've just got a crash ...it seemed like it happened right after a PB was displayed..as i said, it's pretty random..but it's been happening a lot and especially when i have some close actions with a car insight...what do you think it is anyway ? somehtin related to the new patch maybe ?

i recall there was somethin mentioned about LFS crashing when 2 cars make contact or somethin ? wouldnt it explain th eproblem i got while having a very close car insight..maybe some lag or somethin causes it ? or make LFS think the cars hit each others ? though i see no lag.. just gugessing anyway..

yes

i been getting some 10 sec freezes while racing online and especially when i have a close car in my sight..followed by an immediate disconnection from the server..it seems like it's a random thing, but it's there anyway. and it's happening pretty often too with fully loaded servers..

any ideas pls ? ?

it's abvious that any good pre-patch setup will understeer in the new patch...

bob, if you're planing to update your setups , let us know pls..it would be good to have them again since that's what i been using until now.. many thx.

I hope this helps

ok, thx dude

arcade fanboy spotted AFAIK, i've never tried an arcade game in my life and i dont wanna try any.. i started with GPL, NR2003 and then LFS, GTL & NK pro.

is there a tutorial or somethin that explain how to use that telemetry in LFS ? how about third party stuff ?

I use a view of 65 degrees. As posted, Monaco in an F1 must be tough.

Tightest tracks were in an arcade game, NFS Underground 2's Street X events, this the longest of them, sub 29 second lap:

Download a replay from a hot lapper in the F1 at South City, in the meantime:

Formula at Sardian (rfr):

Of course, a hacked F1 car doing 41 seconds at Hockenheim, makes it look tight (rd3):

my god ! i couldnt help it but laugh about those videos... what a joke !

my 0,2 €... the tires might not be perfect or as perfect as some have expected, but , they just feel "right" to me..the car is more predictable now and it certainly a positive thing no matter what... and for some unhappy dudes here , dont forget it's still labeled "ALPHA"...

it really would be good to have a "harcore" mode.. i thought they were gonna add it on this patch though..

no problem whatsoever here...they're clear as the sun !

4-way dampers are a must though (eventually).

especially for the F1..i can't see it "working" properly without the 4 way dampers...it's just gonna be weired without them..really..

dam ! how the hell they cracked LFS with its online protection and whatnot ?? bastards anyway !

Quote from Ball Bearing Turbo :

Indeed, I am curious to see what else they've changed / added if anything. They usually leave a thing or two for discovery, maybe they did this time too.

Not too long to wait to find out.

But yes, those things are important of course. I'm sure they'll get to it soon if they haven't already.

yeah, well let's hope so...

then the question is, will we have a realistic setting "approch" concerning the F1 car ? wont that F1 car end up with some wrong behavors over bumps & curbs without those fast settings ??
