without them, wouldn't they run one after another, as opposed to all at the same time?

Yes. Traditional programs (i.e. non-forking (I've used the term forking quite liberally here, assume it means anything from an actual fork to a wrapper program)), such as LFS, do not return until they have finished executing. Since batch files work sequentially you cannot run a traditional program without using the start command.

ECHELON isn't a new concept and the fact that there's going to be a public face to it doesn't mean that it doesn't already exist.

Quote from TypeRacing :

Bump !

You wrote this thread yesterday. Do not bump it in such a sort space of time. If someone has time to do what you want they will see your request. Feel free to bump after a week or month.

Quote from Neilser :

Maybe it's not a huge job to reimplement it?
Might be a good idea to ask more about this on the mod forum I suspect...

If anyone else had any interest in doing this, I think they would've done so by now.

This wasn't suitable for the programming requests subforum. Moved to GD.

Quote from DieKolkrabe :

Is there a limit to how 'abusive' you can be before you get banned, or is it up to individual mods?

If you call anyone a ****, and it isn't me - I'd say those are pretty good grounds (if I was aimed at me, I'd laugh).

You're asking what is a pretty open ended question at the end of the day. We're pretty lenient here, and let a lot of things slide that other places wouldn't - because of this if you're looking for a list it isn't gonna appear. The general rules (treat others as you expect to be treated, etc. etc.) are spelt out in the agreement, but it's pretty flexible.

I will point out that more people get banned for posting cracked content then bad behaviour though.

Doing anything on IP is an idiotic idea.

If you've truly made a cock up, write to the developers directly (using the link below) and they may provide you with an additional unlock before Friday.

how does that sound?

Sounds lovely, but I don't see it happening.

IS_MTC is a type of InSim packet, used to send a message to a specific connection or player. You can only use it in multiplayer.

My suggestion would be to use VirtualBox, Microsoft Virtual Server, VMWare or whatever on your desktop/development machine and setup a low power linux server to test it first

What does it matter? Version numbers are irrelvant. They are a method of naming for the developers and very little else.

Whats wrong with the next version being called "Dads Army VI"? Nothing. It's just a way of determining a version. It doesn't mean anything in particular therefore since it has no significance its irrelevant.

Quote from Krammeh :

Any chance of the build?

Well you've not said what architecture you're using, nor what distro.

I've not packaged anyway, but quite frankly all you do is make sure you've not got any of the X.org development libraries (which you'd have to explicitly say you want to install in most distros) download and extract the latest version of Wine, then configure, make, make install (you need the relevant build tools to do this, under anuy debian derivative just apt-get install build-essentials as root (either by su, authenticating and installing, then dropping out of root, or via using sudo):
Now just run LFS (I'd suggest running it in screen, or under nohup):
It'll complain, but it should run fine provided that dedicated=invisible in the cfg. Any problems with the cfg and it'll just crash out. Obviously you'd need to make the relevant alterations to your firewall and stuff.

Zakk Wylde's Black Label Society are pretty good - if you like Ozzie then you'll like this - it's very much old school heavy metal.

SevenDust - I've been having a bit of a fest on them today - sort of alt./melodic metal, formed '92-ish.

Devildriver or In Flames are fairly similar and pretty good.

Tool or A Perfect Circle might be enjoyed if you're into your alternative rock.

Similiarly if you're into your industrial metal then Nine Inch Nails or Fear Factory.

Don't think I've ever heard anyone use a Monty Python sample before.

Certainly interesting doing a Fleetwood Mac cover to a Monty Python sample (track: Monty)

I used to use a custom compiled wine (without X libs) and the server ran fine for months, only stopped for upgrades - so yes

Quote from HVS5b :

Thats how I read it

Oh dear.. That's not how I read it - I was taking it as explicitly whilst racing in an F1 event

It's entirely possible to do, although is going to require a significant amount of work to acheive.

Are you looking for someone to do the bulk of the programming work, or were you hoping for advice of how to acheive it yourself? (I can't be bothered to write a huge response if you're looking for someone - I'll just move it to the requests forum if that's the case).

Port forwarding. Look for instructions at portforward.com. Find the model of your router and then look for LiveForSpeed.

If it makes you feel any better dan, if I were in your neck of the woods I'd ride with you

I'd be willing to put money on the fact that it's fine 100% of the time for everyone outside of your network. There's absolutely no requirement to use the in-game list when you're hosting and connecting to the server, on the same LAN.

1. You should've gotten in touch directly with the developers (http://www.lfs.net/?page=mailus) or BMTmicro (which is more applicable in this instance) - the community cannot answer your question.
2. It actually says "Your payment was declined. Please contact your bank for more information.". I think that says it all really.

If a thread is in the wrong place use the "report this post" feature. Do not post in the thread asking for it to be moved.

Quote from Dajmin :

I keep reporting them but the mods don't seem to care.

We do care, but not so much about lerts.

Unlike the majority of the posts recently his actually provoke some sort of discussion and gets his questions answered. He actually posts in the correct subforum, something which 99% of people seem incapable of doing (and is now a lost cause to move each thread). He actually uses a descriptive subject (which 75% of the community also seem incapable of doing). His posts are not rude.

In your opinion it's spam, maybe. In my opinion whilst it maybe occasionally a bit weird, he isn't actually doing anything wrong and I'd rather see more lerts' than some of the crap that people are throwing around at the moment.

Woz: It's a C99 thing - http://www.comeaucomputing.com/techtalk/#voidmain explains the thought process relatively well (although the bit of most relevance is probably the bit entitled "Where does the int returned from main() go?")

Hamed Sam: You're having issues with your connection to the servers - this thread probably isn't the best to ask about that, but it could be simply geographical or network distance to the server you're trying to connect to, poor connection from your ISP to various other parts of the internet (which will result in lag, as it has to travel a long way), or your ISP has decided to throttle the traffic LFS produces (can be done, and commonly LFS traffic is mis-shaped as file-sharing, etc.)

Piilu: Hoorah

You've set your port forwarding up incorrectly. May I suggest that you remove those and start again using portforward.com as a guide.
