Quote from der butz :

I once had 2 Minis, sold one, crashed one. But still I've got a few sets of wheels (13' whatever, 12'alloys, 6x10 wellers) and a camshaft (286°) left over. If you need something for your Min just ask!

greetz

der butz

i'll remember that
are you living far from the Netherlands.
i'm living near alkmaar 30 km from the coast.

i used to drive mini's 10 years ago and now the (non)technology.
the porsche was a hole different story.( it was 35 years old but did drive like a modern car)
but they both needed work
and to be honest i fell in love with mini's years ago so i couldn't help myself

ps. the camshaft and weller wheels sounds appealing

sold the 924 (from '76)

this seas more about you and your opinion than about them.
and i agree that criminals overstayed there welcome but it's just wrong to say that every body from a group of people is criminal just because a few are.
just like i can not say every american is a racist because you are (in my opinion)

Quote from flymike91 :

I agree with tve as happens sometimes, but I would disagree about most immigrants performing a valuable service for their host country. Their service is valuable only if it absolutely cannot ever be performed by any natural born citizen of that country. For the US I don't think any immigrants should be allowed in unless they are doctors, engineers, publicly traded business owners, or very profitable artists. Farm workers are supposed to be let in under guest worker visas which allow them to take money made in the US back home, but that system is abused almost as a rule.

says somebody who lives in a country where most of the natives are gone and allmost all off the american are offsprings off immigrants.

Quote from Takumi_lfs :

Oh yeah? from where do they get the money from? Actually, you should use your logic and image living here in Amsterdam with all those polish and bulgarians working. Car theft, drunk driving accidents, fights and murder etc.. They just cant handle Amsterdam.

My uncle's transporter was also stolen a year ago, which was the same type/color, and never found back.

yea right have you seen the amount of polish people here?
i see them more around amsterdam than in amsterdam (look were i live it's just around the corner)
they don't bother me
and again :all those things didn't happen before?

Quote from Takumi_lfs :

I once sold our car(Vectra B) to a bulgarian and he told me how they work with it like import etc. The funny thing is, dutch police cant do anything about it, 2 hours of driving means germany, holland is an small country.

Why the **** you do you think that those bulgarians are here? They all drive ****ing more expensive cars than us but ofc with an bulgarian plate.
I saw the bulgarian came back with our vectra after 2 months or close to that with an new plated bulgarian plate it even looked new shiney white.

Why would dutch ppl even do cartheft in this country? There is no way out, unless they work together with an bulgarian xD

weren't you surprised he bought the car from you?
they all steel cars according to you so why buy it then ?
according to the news a lot of crime and murders are in amsterdam .
even before any Bulgarian or other foreigner came .
so everybody from Amsterdam is a criminal then according to your logic

it's so easy to blame a complete country for your problems.
we Dutch people do nothing wrong right?
before nobody was stealing cars and our police force was just for show.

WAKE UP !

you do sound racist

nice

how about a transaxel car:engine in the frond and gearbox in the back
it's ideal for the weight ratio (40/60 for example )

Quote from MrPDR :

I'm not understanding the importance of all of these minor things every patch fixes. 99% of the time they never had an influence on the quality of the game.
30 test patches, very nit picky and pointless - skip to the real updates.

Sorry, post seems crude, but I doubt i'm alone in what i say. Please understand.

that's your problem
you don't have to download/test them ,just wait for the finished patch

now scawen can tackle one problem at the time an progress quicker

here in the Netherlands are driving schools who use a simulator for the basic skills so you don't have to take that much road lessons

Since majority of people are consumers who are allergic to thinking, they'll watch the series with better PR

true otherwise they would already look at the more interesting race classes instead of f1

Quote from PaulC2K :

Maybe its for people who want to buy something reliable, that didnt have a 33% rate of failure in its first year, for the first 2 years it was on the market, or didnt destroy there DVDs even though MS knew about this problem FROM DAY ONE and still allowed it to go on shelves and ruin peoples games discs.

Statisticly you've got better odds of surviving a round of russian roullette than you have of getting a 360 thats reliable!

We'll ignore the fact that the technologicly superior xbox was on the market for only a couple of years before MS decided they had to release something new so they'd get an early market share, they rushed out a half-arsed machine which was marginally more advanced that the xbox. The only thing 'next-gen' on the 360 is a HDMI port... and it took over 2 years for them to figure that out, and isnt even in every model.

you can't just copy a real track
they (the track owners) want to see money for that
you have to buy the rights!

no problem done it several times
my brother used to game by every Friday and we raced on ctra at the same time
and i even have done it with a third computer with a demo licence and 2x S2

i have an old computer witch runs a dedicated server when i want to
just run the dedicated server an have it connected to the interned
like now people from my work can practice there because we planed a private race on 7 april

Quote from Chrisuu01 :

You skinning could use some work to maybe just sayonmg becaus whel TBH it looks bad

its just that pixel bleeding is al over it so it looks edged and not very good.
Have you tried skinning in 2560x2048 screen size? after you finished resize it back to 2048x2048

maybe i don't understand you but how do you see that in a screen shot of the viewer?
isn't this a opinion about the (resized) screen shot?

Quote from Chrisuu01 :

Fixed that for you

@beano also not sure about the big VW logo but stil awsome work

thanks now i get it ants:
my English is a bit rusty

my private skin

Quote from z-ro 8 :

how about this one?
eliminate the restart/ end race vote altogether.
deal with the hand you're dealt.
you crash, oh well. tough luck.
you dont like a track? either run it anyway and get better at it, or choose race2, or 3, or ss1.
the whole point is to be a better racer. and better racers can adapt to different cars and tracks.
anyone can run fast laps over and over on the same track, but the goal is to be able to race, side by side, anywhere in anything.

or, just get used to the fact that not everyone can be pleased at once, and leave it the way it is. seems for the most part to have been working for a while now.....

yep +1

i have the same problem! tracks.txt
in the setup cfg there is // in front of track=

ah well if people won't read or doesn't understand

people said it wasn't steeling (10nt post in this topic)
i wanted only to point out that (by law) it is steeling!
so that people don't think they have the RIGHT to use every skin they want!
and indeed it is not to lfs to protect the copyright but i thought i didn't say that

i thought i explaint my self in the other posts

Quote from ColeusRattus :

Actually, there is one simple solution for teams to prevent skin stealing:

Use two skins:
a public skin for public racing, which isn't "exclusive" to your team in so far that skin "stealing" isn't a problem

and a team skin (with a randomized name) you only use in league and closed server racing, where the chance of someone else using it is slim.

On a sidenote: i'd be flattered if anyone would want use my skins

i think your right. it can be as simple as that!

Quote from SamH :

I suspect, far more likely, it is you that doesn't get col's point.

When you've invented the "ethereal internet", let us know and we'll all move over to using that. Then, once we've got the einternet, all we have to do is THINK our skins to everyone so everyone can see what our skins look like (as long as they close their eyes while driving) and we can just blow this whole physical internet nonsense off.

Or, alternatively, you could go get yourself an understanding of how the real internet works, then prolly come back and delete your post out of sheer embarassment.

example:
when i give permision to use a photo in a magazine
every body who buys the magazine gets a copy of my photo
but they still not allowed to use it themselfs
thats copyright!
i know that there are people who will use the photo as i know that there are people who use the skins witout permision
but that still doesn't make it right!
but whe do have to live with it (thiefs are everywhere also on the net )
col thinks that skins have no copyright !?
again:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Copyrights
it aply's to all origionall work
my case was just pointing out that it is steeling
im not asking to do anithing obout it , i belive that would be a waste of time
