Quote from total konfuzion :

Funny how no one managed to say this sort of thing so brashly before the account was banned....

Actually, Ian.H had been called out several times in the past from forum members for much the same as the stuff that got him banned and he'll get much the same when he gets back to it.

rF has to be modded

Well, that's exactly the point of rF really...

Quote from P5YcHoM4N :

As for the rest of the rant, although very true, most Americans don't know their towns and cities are named after existing towns, cities and countries, so if you say you flew to London and got in a fight with an Englishman because he boiled a squirrel, they will say "there are English people in Texas?"

I'd have no problem whatsoever if Athens, GA was the only one on the planet.

Quote from Mille Sabords :

as well as aerodynamics affecting damage

That is already there (at least as far as the possibilities of acquiring damage is concerned, however not damage as in overheating, etc), the other way around is severely lacking. But yeah, currently oval racing in LFS cannot really be called a simulation when the effects of a major part like drafting, for example, are half-implemented at best.

No, no, no. You have one chance and one chance only to make it right and there you go messing it up... Tsk, tsk, tsk.

So if someone does thrust you another will take your place?

Quote from Riders Motion :

(Quebec City). So Canada?? F*$K YEAH WITH A BOTTLE OF LUBE AND CONDOMS!

One would of thought that the inclusion of "City" in a city's name would be a hint that any celebration related to it wouldn't be nationwide, but then again "canada" apparently does mean "village".

It's a remix of a Rob Zombie track from Astro Creep 2000. Don't know who did the remix - it's probably entitled something like "Up my Bum Homophobia Mix" or something. In fact, google exactly that.

Popular verses of modern day bards say you can't live either way.

I never realized that LFS had so much in common with Rogue.

Man, the Duke would be proud.

Quote from Shotglass :

which bit of the word humour (aside from the second u) is it that you have problems understanding with?

Is typing that word legal in Germany?

Quote from petercollins :

All-in-all a fantastic track and one I never get tired of!!

And if you do there's always the joy of the reverse config which I've always found to be more fun for some reason.

Oh... hey isn't that a big-ass this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_chimney ?

EDIT:
After reading a bit about it, yeah - it seems like the same concept only in a bigger scale so it can move turbines instead of just cause a draft.

I think that the key to this whole energy bla bla is efficiency. Get people to use less energy and be more efficient in their individual ways of thinking - not necessarily this whole "going green" crap thing, just put more thought into new house designs, improving old ones, and the way things are utilized in general. I see it a lot around here: houses are erected with no thought on "simple" things that are important, like orientation for example; a well oriented house will need less energy to heat/cool and less energy to light up.

We've got different rules here and just remember that if it all turns to custard over there that you were warned.

Thanks. Have fun on your slice of paradise.

Quote from Ca18Slider :

Already there is a tower that is going into development somewhere, forgot where, that uses heat to generate electricity. There will be five of them, and it's thought to be able to produce enough power to produce enough electricity to run a city if I remember correctly, I'll get the youtube video later demonstrating how it works. All I remember is that it is TALL. World Trade Center is nothing compared to that thing.. it's humongo.

You mean this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_power_tower ?

According to the Clichéopedia, anything solar is a myth in the British Isles - but then again according to the same article they don't need electricity, things work on politeness there.

It's when a driver requests to take control of another driver's car. Hence the need for a new ID association.

You can see this in action online when you chose to show the connection list it has a button to request a driver swap.

Hey, way to go - excellent comeback I'd say. I know several people around 30-35 who found a way, either through running or cycling, out of extremely unhealthy situations created by their lifestyle; that's something that's worth publicizing I'd say - keep it up!

Quote from Becky Rose :

swap plz k thx

Unless you're already in the habit of waxing your chest, I suggest you rethink your wish. :P

Didn't know the boycott was that old, but anyhow I don't buy any of their products. Come to think of it I rarely buy packaged produce from non-local brandnames and especially as far foodstuffs go I try to avoid packaged stuff period.

Sorry, i do not usually read the descriptions and such, i only watch the rating, images and download links

Sounds like your method has brought you to an impasse. In the meantime you might find insight in this.

Quote from Boris Lozac :

Yes i know, they are just drawn, but they don't share the same leather texture with the rest of the car, as you can see on the picture... and that's what i meant about wierd modeling It's pain in the a** to make a custom interior...

And this little thing is soo iritating, it seems like the interiors were rushed or something, it's a small thing, but it pokes me in the eyes.. I altered it on the picture as how it should be..

If only Eric could iron these little things until they go public...

It's not weird modelling. It's the texture mapping that is more complex than it used to be and for a good reason: the air vents and such little details can use higher resolution textures now and not rely on the tiling leather texture which could cause distortion and such when mapped to the dash. IMO it's much more efficient the way it's done now - extra texture resolution where it's needed only.

I won't ask why and what - but since it sounds like you knackered a bolt's head: try cutting a vertical notch in it with a rotary tool (dremel) and using a flat-headed screwdriver to get it out. If there's no head left to make a notch in you'll have to drill out the screw with a smaller diameter bit than what the screw itself has.

EDIT:
Judging from your seemingly impatient approach (2 threads, drilling a simple allen/hex bolt, etc) I advise you to let it be for now and do it after you've relaxed a bit.

In this replay it shoots out an OOS error as soon as I press Shift-G and change the gears from manual to auto transmission. I tried it again and it's reproducible.
