Quote from TFalke55 :

Every team can decide where they want to drive which of the cars and you can switch classes without (until the start of qualifying) consequences. There won't be restrictions about spots per class.

The goal is the test of a platform where people can decide on driving the car, they want to drive most.

Thanks for the explenation, this should've been in the first post! Now I can make sense of it. The idea is certainly an interesting one, guess time will tell if it actually works as intended.

I might sound grumpy here, but what exactly was your goal when creating this?

I don't really get it, if we would have 60+ grid spots, ok. But we got 40 (right?) at max right now, thats 6 spots per class at best. Less popular classes might have less sign ups more popular more, are you going to restrict spots per class? Even if you do and you get 6 teams per class, you are bound to get no racing at all in the end?

As I said, I might be missing something here but I don't see your reasoning behind this atm.

I think everybody knows about your player by now, why not finally stop this monologue?

Really want to know? Because for me your talks here look like "Well, yes train or plane is a good way to reach from New York to London, but I have just my old bike, so I'll use it for such traveling. Guys, which color of wheels on my bike should I choose to increase my speed?"

You see?

Your replies do tell another story though, you quote stuff and go on about your glorious player when the discussion is clearly about technical things on broadcasting/streaming and not the client side. (Where your player may actually be useful I've got no idea)

Maybe you should start reading the stuff you quote instead of trying to force your player down our throats.

Here too, thanks for the fix.

deb.txt attached, GPU usage 93% when I alt tab.

edit: I see I'm late.

Quote from Scawen :

I suppose when you ALT+TAB in Windows 10, it's more like a resize, not a minimise. Looking at the screen shots, instead of vanishing to the task bar, there seems to be a small LFS window there. Ideally, should it be that little window stays live and keep showing a moving LFS, instead of a black screen? Is that the Windows 10 way?

I would say that would be the preferred way, keep vsync on and let it run in the preview window. Take Assetto Corsa for example it already does that. I know of some other software that keeps playing in those preview windows, like VLC for example.

But I'm just a consumer so I don't know how software is supposed to behave in this case, I just know it's neat when something moves in the previews.

You can easily get hitbox streams into your favorite desktop player. http://www.hitbox.tv/api/player/hls/channelname.m3u8

So for cityliga you would open http://www.hitbox.tv/api/player/hls/cityliga.m3u8 (in vlc "media" "open network stream")

Yes, running H6 (On Win10)

Thanks. This is a bit puzzling. How does LFS look when you ALT+TAB out of it from full screen? Is it just a name and and icon in the taskbar?

If anyone can intercept and log the Windows messages sent to LFS in this situation in Windows 10, that would be interesting.

Sorry, don't know how to capture messages sent to LFS, but here is a screenshot on how LFS looks for me when I alt-tab. If you give me somewhere to start I'll be happy to try to capture something.

Yes, running H6 (On Win10)

Quote from Scawen :

Test Patch 0.6H6 is now available, with various fixes and some improvements. Thank you for the testing and feedback.

Changes from 0.6H5 to 0.6H6


Fixes :

CPU usage increased if minimised from full screen mode with vsync

I've got the same thing happening but with GPU usage, somehow when I alt tab out of the game LFS "forgets" that vsync is on and runs without it, GPU usage is almost maxing out in this situation.

Not sure if I should post a new thread with this but while reuploading some skins in 2048 I've noticed an error when you upload a skin that is already uploaded by a different person.

How about you stop digging your hole and just put ubuntu on a usb stick and boot it for a try?

Soo there is talk that the zandvoort by kunos is not going to be laser scanned. Kinda sad if true...


Anyways if you did not know I'm making lx8 for ac (all stuff scratch made, 3d model included). Some wip shots of the track version:

Not doing a lot of driving these days but I very much look forward to driving this in a more finished state then the early preview you've uploaded.

Make sure you login with your gamepassword! There's 2 different passwords for LFS, one for the web one for the game.

You may check out the lfs irc channel, I'm sure there is something there for racing enthusiasts.

Garden Pics you say!

Got the parcel last year free of charge from GF's family side but nothing was done for a long time:




Then started preparing some beds for veg:




This year (looks a bit greener now, picture was taken back in April I think):

I'd probably be interested in an NGT drive in case the class fills up a bit, if anyone is searching for a lonely, lazy swiss I'm your man!

That it shows why the netcode is still in netkar level and the AI was a waste of time.

Not going to happen, nobody is stopping you from playing lfs on win10 though.

Right now I'd say it's easy, with lighthouse and the controllers Vive for me is the better package. Oculus has been quiet with input though, maybe they manage to wow us when E3 gets going.

Scawen always said he wanted to finally get the tyre physics out so they can properly introduce new content (some free some for s3).

That would be confirmed Rockingham and VWS plus extra content, I think I remember something about another 2 tracks and 3 cars? But don't quote me on that, maybe I got that wrong.

But yes, some teasing by Scawen would be very nice

Edit: one more track mentioned there https://www.lfs.net/forum/post/1876575#post1876575

He also said that if content is ready before phyics are done it will be released, although that is quite a recent statement and contradicts a lot of the earlier ones.

Quote :

We wanted to release S3 after the new tyre physics (and Scirocco) but now I don't think that is important any more. If we can get some S3 content ready before the tyre physics is finished, then it can be released, even without all the S3 things we would like to release eventually. So we'll see.

Another quick one from the last westhill progress report

Quote :

After the Westhill update, Eric will continue with the S3 tracks he has been working on. Scawen will continue with the new tyre model. The new tyres currently feel good to drive but some work needs to be done on heat, pressure, friction, tyre load sensitivity and wear which are all closely linked.

Just because you seem a little lonely here.

UF1: 47.73
RAC: 37.36
XRR: 31.46

Good luck, I demand gear shifting animations and a "freeroam" walking mode if you get selected!

Maybe it would be worth looking at AC, there could be some modder helping you out if you ask nicely.
