I finished Uni about 24 years ago with a degree in Electronics which just about introduced the PNP and NPN diode .... Dont think I'll go back

Now I head up the European operation of a Multi billion dollar Telecoms Manufacturer and no diodes in sight

Good luck to all going back .. its all worth it in the end.. hang in

being and Ex "first person shooter" Clan player (UrbanTerror on Quake), one of the key things that made that play environment challenging was the depth of choice of Maps that could be played upon... All these where developed by the community and like LFS skins some maps where great and others really bad .. All depending upon the skill of the mapper..

Instead of the developers creating tracks would it be a better investment to create a SDK for track development so that the community can then do tracks ??

Just a thought ?

Quote from Boxster3.4 :Just my Hello...

Found LFS early last week... registered within a few hours ... had a server running a few days later ... And spent the weekend playing and practicing .. Managed to get a 1min 14.34 on Blackwood in a fz50 gtr today .. well off the record of 1.05.52 but I was pleased .. not bad in only two days of starting me thinks ... or is it

My stats say I have driven 669 Miles and "wasted" 304 Ltrs of Fuel LOL !! Nearly as bad as fuel economy as I get in my Cayenne ..

Thanks to the developers and the community ...

A week on and in the FZR now have Blackwood down to 1:12:61 and Westhill (which is a blast and my current favourite circuit) down to 1:42:17 ... started to use F1perfview and Analyse for speed and can see my problems already ... key one is I often turn in TOO late .. getting the hang of tuning some setups ..was amazed the setup I was comfortable with on Blackwood was terrible on Westhill .. great game


1589 miles .. 921 Litres of Fuel :-) I think I have got my 24GBP value

Another thought on binding a Thank You key for the fast guys.. as a "learner" I have "Please Pass Me !! " bound to a key.. When I see a fastlapper approaching I will send them the Please pass when it makes sense for a "clean pass"

I must admit I have noticed a lot of people do say thanks or send a

When playing LFS I find most steering wheels need to stay stationary .. if they drift around too much they are difficult to use ...

Quote from 510N3D :what about the mac address? Well you can change the NIC when its not onboard or hack it somehow but this value is unique for each NIC, as far as i know. Onboard or not (i think). Hmm...

Its easy to change MAC address on any NIC .. Also what MAC address would you use .. the router/ firewall doing the NAT or actually end user PC

I used to run a European based UrbanTerror CTF team (quake 3 mod) called TeamKFC .. we got served a cease and desist order by KFC in the USA and instructed to stop using all references to KFC and the "logos" and "TradeMarks" we had used on our web site .. They actually spent money and time tracking us down from the URL registration...

I have overclocked my machines for years ... Go with Noccys advice .. you dont say what CPU, Mobo, Memory you have .. some makes/models just dont Overclock at all..

Once you tweak anything test that setting for stability .. you may think your oc lifting FSB 10 % is great but then in the midst of a game .."bang...reset ..."

Testing .. Use Prime95

Also SP2004
http://sp2004.fre3.com/

If it looks like you have a stable system setting.. test that setting for a minimum of 60 mins.. Consider overnight

If you want to get serious .. consider some of the special BIOS's they can add stability at higher FSBs
