I asked for it about a Year ago.
Scaven (Or was it Eric?) told me that they have not enough time to release a Linux Dedicated Host in near future.
But he didnt negotiate it

Well, perhaps not the Problem of you all, but i noticed a strange behavour with LFS, too.
When i switch on AA, LFS will just get unplayable in Window-Mode.
The Screen fills from top down just line for line, the higher i set AA the slower it goes.
But as soon as i switch to fullscreen, it runs ok.
Without AA everything runs well, in Fullscreen- as well as in Window-Mode.
I got this behavour after i reinstalled Windows some Month ago. No Hardware changed, just reinstalled Windows. Before that i could run LFS with 8xAA in Window-Mode, now its not playable.
Thats no big deal for me because i allways Race in Fullscreen, but sometimes you just want to check IRC or something between Races and hit F4 ...
Its so funny because i just installed all drivers as i used before, but it behaves different

Oh well, my Hardware: Athlon64 3200+, 1GB Ram, Radeon9800Pro
but because it run well with same Hardware before Windows-Reinstallation I dont think its something with that (As well as the Fact that without AA everything runs fine, too.)
Oh yes, with AA the CPU is 99% used by LFS in Window-Mode, but only 40-70% in Fullscreen or Window-Mode without AA.

Perhaps someone knows this Problem?

Congrats BO!!!!!
Very good Race by you
I messed up my Race, first i felt too slow and pushed too much.
My front right Tire didnt like that and i think my carhandling suffered by that
Then in Pit my Pitcrew didnt changed the front left tire but all other.
Car handling still crap
During the 2nd Stint my sounds gone away and i didnt remember the key to reset sound (never happen to me before) so i had to go to options searching the key and lost Time again.
Well ok and then the little crash with Strobe, sry man it was just very close at that corner )
Next time i hope to do better (Well 3rd is ok but with so much space between me and the 1st & 2nd not *G*)
Thx Guru for planning and Server ...

Oh! watching the Results i see i did veeery good first Split, but very slow 3. Split. I ve to train that Part of Track i think )

Quote from mrodgers :With the title of the thread, "Physics still FUBAR", I don't think the discussion started with someone saying that "there is further developing" to do. It certainly sounds like whining and complaining to me.

Same as i thought reading this ...

Isnt this is the advantage of the Relay-Host?
The people watching the Race are not directly connected to the Game Server but to the Relay-Host?

Otherwise it would be a problem with loads of Spectators ...
Spectating LFS-Races in 3D

I just thought of a possibility to spectate Races in 3D-Perspective.
Perhaps you know LFS-Spectator, which is allready nice to follow a Race without being connected to the Server.
But it would be much better if those Spectators could see the Race in the TV-View for example.
So perhaps it would be possible to release a free LFS-Client which can only get the Relay-Host-List and connect to a Server listed there and watch it like you can do if you are directly connected as Spectator on a Server.
In this "LFS-TV-Client" you can't start Races, nor do training, you do not even be allowed to setup a Controller or something.
I dont know if the InSim-Information is enough to feed the real LFS-Engine for rendering the Race, but it would be really nice

Some of my Firends followed the Endurance-Leage Race yesterday, they like the Top-Down View of LFS-Spectator because you have a very good Overview of the Race. But they missed a real 3D-View which is more exciting to spectate, especially in cases of close battles for Positions ...

So there are two factors that should be given:
  • The LFS-TV-Client has to be cut down to only the neccessary functionality to display a Race and select those Races from the Relay-Host-List. (Scaven? *G*)
  • The InSim Informations have to be as complete to feed the LFS-Client with all the information to render the Cars on Track.
Is this generally possible?
Do you think its worth the work?

Perhaps its because of your CPU.
I ve got a 1.4Ghz and have annoying Lags everytime someone Pits or leaves Pit.
I ve read that LFS needs more CPU-Power than Gafik(card)power so I believe its the CPU.
But perhaps people with bigger CPU experience the "Pit-Lag", too?
... btw I ve 1GB Ram so it cant really be a Ram-Problem

P.S. My Ping is about 45ms on most Servers I join.

Formation of the Code-Rebellion Racingteam

Hi!

My Name is T. Dahlhoff [TDSyco] and I m driving the LFS-Endurance Grand Touring League.
I got Qualified for Div. B the last Races, even got to 6. Place the last Race on Aston GP.
I know my Skills and so I m very satisfied to be able to compete in Div. B in my first Endurance-Season.

I like to find a Driver (Perhaps even more Drivers) that drive simillar times as me and does not throw
the whole Race in the Towel because of one Mistake or because of no sight of winning the Race.
The main Goal for me is to Race not to Win (However winning the Race is even better *G*).
I m driving FZR, perhaps trying the FRR some day.
So it would be good if you drive FZR, too.
The last Weeks i was training nearly every Day.
As Team I would like to have one weekly Train together, even more as we like to.

Some more Infos on me and Code-Rebellion
I m 29 Years old, living in Münster, Germany.
I m working for The Phone House Germany (Carphone Warehouse for our english Friends here and do
everything neccessary to maintain our Intra- and Internet-Applications.
Me and a friend of mine are hosting some little Websites and Named us Code-Rebellion.
Unfortunally he is no good driver (Games on PC`s? whats that?) so I need to find someone else to
drive with me
So Code-Rebellion gives the Teamname and the Website (www.code-rebellion.de/cr_racing.php) and Rudi from www.designrebellion.de can do great
things to our Teamskin *G*
I just need one or two more drivers.

Requirements
You should drive for the fun of Racing, not only to Win.
You should do clean Racing and be able to fit your driving to a special Situation.
(e.g. Not driving straight into a lapped Driver and complaining about Blue Flag)
You should be honest and drive a Season to the End if registered for it.
You should be present to Teamtraining and Races you have registered for.

Last Words
I just want a little Team and emphasise a friendly Teamspirit.
I would prefer to drive with someone I know from "Reallife" but unfortunally there is no one of them
doing Online Racing...
Its not possible to participate the actual LFS-Endu-Season anymore, so you will be driving with me the next one,
perhaps we just start driving a League in beginning of next Year...
In the meantime we can train together and build up our Team (Setup, Teamskin, Taktics)
Oh yes and dont expect me to decide whom I want in the Team too early.
We ll just drive together some Races, and get to know each other.
We then decide if we believe we can go together well...

Happy Racing
Timo

Wh00t?
You re not working on LFS but doing uneccessary things to your Kitchen?
STOP THAT!

...you people see, if you dont hear anything, there s just nothing worth to report of yet (which does not mean that working on your Kitchen isnt something worth to report of *G*), although they do work on something

People really make me upset, asking every now & then for Progressreport, just to blame the Programmers if the posted things didnt appear in the next Release (because it just did not get ready in time)

You are right, its nice to have a Report to stay informed what may come next, but this should come initial from the Programmers and they WILL inform you if they have completed a new Feature.

I dont know exactly but I think they dont programm LFS exclusively, will say they ve other work to do.
Even if not so, they probably just get bored of programming the same Code all the time.
So what if they stay away from the LFS-Sourcecode for a Month to get their heads clear again? Its ok for me...

I would like to have a Linux-Dedi (I dont want wine on my Server *G*) but they told me that they ve other priorities and I understand this.
So I dont asked him for a Date to release it nor do I want him to report on it or something.
If it gets done he will tell us i believe....

(I myself dont like those Managers sitting in my Back asking when their new Application is ready Day for Day, Hour for hour ...it just sucks)

But people can Ban them from Servers without interfering any Laws.
They bought the Game, they can play it, but for beeing wreckers the are not able to join any Server......
