Scawen, please make the engine sound a bit more quiet. I can not hear my car getting damaged or sliding any more (which is a bit problematic for me driving a wheel without FFB). The engine is definitely a bit too loud / The other car sounds are too quiet.

Greetings.

BTW: A great job you did with the sound system. Really sounds awesome. Anyways, I have a question: Why do I hear the noise of a supercharger in cars that do not have one (i.e. FZR)?

and atleast chuck norris is not George W Bush, so he wouldnt care if they are terrorists. If he wants to find them, he'll find them.

:wow:

I usually really do not like drift movies, or mixed drift/hl scenes, but this movie was one of the best I have seen until now.

9/10, because synchronisation was not perfect all the time, but a great movie anyways.

Quote from MyBoss :Don't know what that means, but it seems like its helping

caching means that your browser keeps an old image in its "memory" to minimize the load of the server and your internet connection. especially opera browsers have problems with caching, but other browsers also do sometimes.

Quote from Victor :might be caching - i'll try sending anti-cache headers along with the images to see if that helps.

The headers you send by now (the following)
HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Date: Tue, 12 Dec 2006 09:18:50 GMT
Server: Apache/1.3.31 (Unix) mod_ssl/2.8.18 OpenSSL/0.9.7d
Cache-Control: no-store, no-cache, must-revalidate
Pragma: no-cache
Connection: close
Content-Type: image/gif

Won't do the job in some Opera Versions IIRC. You should try to set an extra "Expires" header, which should contain a date in the past (in the same format like the Date-Header). Headers should look like this then:

HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Server: Apache/1.3.31 (Unix) mod_ssl/2.8.18 OpenSSL/0.9.7d
Date: [actual date in GMDate format]
Expires: Wed, 1 Jan 1997 00:01:00 GMT
Cache-Control: no-store, no-cache, must-revalidate
Pragma: no-cache
Connection: close
Content-Type: image/gif

Let's see if that helps (note the placeholder I set in the Date-Header in the second example, dont change this header manually - the webserver will do the job).

By the way: Apache 1.3.31? Thats old man (and insecure *cough*)!

@Gener_AL: it would be interesting to see the replays of the other racers on the server and see if they look like the one you recorded.

Quote from filur :PHP5 should AFAIK always pass objects by reference.

PHP 5 does, but PHP 4 may want to do bad things with the objects.

Quote from MikeB :
As i said i have no experience with PHP sof ar. I am using php5 as installed by my ISP. Is there anything useful i could do to help track this error down?

You can in fact. First thing you can do is try to replace

<?php 
global $LFSWorld;
?>

by

<?php 
global &$LFSWorld;
?>

Else PHP could try to create a copy of the $LFSWorld object instead of passing a reference to it to the function.

If this does not work, try giving $LFSWorld as a parameter to your function:

<?php 
function get_lfsw_teams(&$LFSWorld) {
  
// ...
}

$LFSWorld = new LFSWorldSDK($idk);
get_lfsw_teams(&$LFSWorld);
?>

This should work in every case.

Quote from Scawen :I've already been through various possibilities, including that one which I don't like. I don't want to confuse users and add dialog boxes. I never thought of Kegetys's autodetection idea which seems to best so far. It will only go into a window, if it needs to. And if it does, the firewall popup should be clearly visible and accessible. I don't think anyone will come up with a better idea than that, because it is all beneficial and has no drawbacks.

Sounds to me like you want to remove the user option "run windowed" or the shift-f4 key combo for changing from window to fullscreen and vice-versa. please do not, some addons (like LFS Display) really need the windowed mode of LFS =)

Quote from Scawen :...things about zonealarm...

The new ZoneAlarm Version finally has a gaming mode. Its available via [Right Click on ZoneAlarm window] -> Gaming Mode. A window will pop up asking you how you want ZoneAlarm to handle Internet-Connections of new programs while in gaming mode - AutoAccept or AutoDeny. Eureka, no ZA window will pop up.

Even if there is a name&shame no-no on this forums, these two have goddamn deserved to be mentioned. They are really bad crashers - worst I've ever seen I'd say.


Does anyone remember a post that took place here about a month ago? It was mentioned there that a clan named "myg()t - the harassment authority" had put lfs on their harassment list. maybe two members of them finally decided to buy a license to go harrassing on lfs servers because they could not crack the licensing system of lfs

Quote from Scawen :OK...
...
a) Removed text "LEFT pit lane" and "ENTERED pit lane"
...
b) FIX : Black screen bug when changing between full screen and windowed

a) Erm... Why? This always helped me recognizing when I was able to push the pedal to the metal again after a pit stop (well... maybe precisely because of this help )

b) Great work, Can not do the bug in any way now.

Quote from Jakg :...technically there won't be a U24...

It of course will. first thing is that on some point click sounds are echoed or disappear, and AFAIK Scawen promised an auto-patcher for the UXX test patch series, so there will at a minimum be two more test patches - first one addressing the few left sound bugs and implementing the autoPatcher, the next testing the auto-patcher.
