hi there! old thread i know but just discoverd this, much nicer than my cruddy spreadsheet a couple of things i think could be handy.

- ability to specify how much weight / intake restriction will be added or removed depending on race finish position, so another column in the points allocations screen maybe.

- ability to specify different points allocations for different rounds e.g. some rounds may be sprint some are endurance (more points for finishers)

yea i want to find one of those sets you see people using where the car rolls hard out and sometimes you get inside wheels lifting, would be cool to do a xrt series using fixed setup like this.

that server is fun az aye, somtimes its just an achivement finishing the 2 laps

i found hte rb4 really hard to make the jumps, its like they are setup for the faster cars, found FXR heaps easier, give it ago, i got sent a nice setup for it, its at home though.
macros

yea it would hard out, bcause you have to use fancy dangle foot work to keep the braking pedal pressure constant/smooth, while doing throttle blip with same foot + clutch with the other, i find it hard in my race seat setup to keep steady braking while doing all
the other stuff.

i think it would help having a better pedal setup (like hanging pedals and the right pedal offset for heel / toe)

Not very pure racing having macros like that i think.

Quote from ColeusRattus :
A "sthu", or "shut the hell up" is both annoying (at least in it's abbreviated form) and rude.

I'm sorry if I find having wild acusations of myself retaining low mental capabilties offensive and I replied accordingly, I think you were the one being rude to start with and I did not see it as a 'mild rant' ... Good day sir [/pointless discussion]

1) there's an edit button, so no need for double posts. In fact, the number of consecutive post by a single member is indirectly proportional to said user's mental capabilities.

there was another message in between my 2 but the guy must have deleted it so sthu

thanks for your help, i think we will need php version of that though sorry.

our code so far


<?php 
php
// Variables
$errno        0;
$errstr       "";
$host         "127.0.0.1";
$insimPort    "63393";
$localPort    63390;
$AdminPass    "****";
$AppName      "LFSNZ Web App";

$sender fsockopen($host$insimPort, &$errno, &$errstr3);
// create receiver filestream
while ($localPort <= 65535)
{
  
$receiver = @stream_socket_server("tcp://$host:$localPort"$errno$errstrSTREAM_SERVER_BIND);

  if (
is_resource($receiver))
    break;

  
$localPort++;
  
$receiver false;
}

// Make the receiver stream nonblocking to be able to apply timeouts
stream_set_blocking($receiver0);


$packet chr(44);                            // Size of this packet
$packet .= chr(1);                            // ISP_ISI (see the ENUMERATIONS FOR PACKET TYPES list in InSim.txt)
$packet .= chr(1);                            // Reqi - something non-zero, so LFS will return an IS_VER packet
$packet .= chr(0);                            // Must be zero
$packet .= pack('S'0);                      // byte UDP Port (not needed, so 0)
$packet .= pack('S'40);                     // 8 (keep text colours) + 32 (receive MCI packets)
$packet .= chr(0);                            // Sp0
$packet .= '!';                               // Special host message prefix character - ! in this example.
$packet .= pack('S'500);                    // Time in ms between NLP or MCI packets (0 = none)
$packet .= str_pad($AdminPass16chr (0));  // char Admin[16]
$packet .= str_pad($AppName16chr (0));    // char IName[16]

if (fwrite($sender$packet))
    echo 
"Connected successfully.\n<br />";
else
    echo 
"Could not connect!\n<br />";

ok oh its taken from that tutorial so yea, ok will change to TCP

so is $packet .= pack("C", 63393); the right sort of syntax?? that one is to set port, so we need a line to set Size right?

I'm slowly learning this stuff sorry for my dumbassness.

struct IS_ISI // InSim Init - packet to initialise the InSim system
{
byte Size; // 44
byte Type; // ISP_ISI
byte ReqI; // If non-zero LFS will send an IS_VER packet
byte Zero; // 0

word UDPPort; // Port for UDP replies from LFS (0 to 65535)
word Flags; // Bit flags for options (see below)

byte Sp0; // 0
byte Prefix; // Special host message prefix character
word Interval; // Time in ms between NLP or MCI (0 = none)

char Admin[16]; // Admin password (if set in LFS)
char IName[16]; // A short name for your program
};

heya

im Just playing around with php & insim in the weekend and am in the same position as andy29 just trying to get php to talk to insim at the moment.

I have done a little PHP before and another guy in our LFS deals with PHP in his work so know abit more than me. Basicly pretty noob at this. This post has been pretty usefull have already read the PHP tutorial and afew other posts but hit a bit of a brick wall now. We jsut trying to do the very basics like andy just send a 'hello world' to LFS(z).

this is our code (PHP5) latest insim version.


<?php 
 
php
$errno 
0;
$errstr "";
$sender fsockopen("udp://127.0.0.1""63393", &$errno, &$errstr3);
// isi packet
$packet "ISI\0"// ISP_ISI, ReqI, Zero
$packet .= pack("C"63393); // word UDPPort
$packet .= pack("C"0); // word Flags
$packet .= pack("S"0); // byte Sp0
$packet .= pack("S""LFSS"); // byte Prefix
$packet .= pack("C"0); // word Interval
$packet .= str_pad("adminPW"16"\0"); // char Admin[16];
$packet .= str_pad("Test IT"16"\0"); // char IName[16];
echo strlen($packet);
fwrite($sender$packet);
fclose($sender);

?>

When we echo to strlen its 43 and the lfs server says 'recieved packet with invalid size' needs to be 44 according to insim.txt

during our playing around if we go $adminpw = "****" we get "password does not match your multiplayer admin password" and it is the right password we set on the sever.

can someone please give us a hand to just get started.
