I have tried downloading the in-game X patch and that fails also.

Is it something to do with UAC and if so how do I disable it for LFS? Can't seem to find anything in the forum as when i select unlock a requesters displays:

OK, so there are two options then, broadcast ones with plugs that will need adaptors or quality headphones with a sepearate Mic.

For clarities sake - the headphones should cover the ear and be extremely comfortabl for long periods. The mic simply needs to do a decent job.

I though DJ ones might fit the bill?

Any further suggestions?

You would need to speak to a multi-monitor setup owner with one! Besides, driving with the split in the middle of your FOV is a pain in the proverbials, hence the need for 3 monitors...

Quote from Bob Smith :On a related note, what's the best way to run LFS over 2 monitors? Using windowed mode and dragging it across both displays results in pretty meagre fps (i.e. 18fps instead of 140fps).

With an nVidia , go to settings/advanced/nView Display/Horizontal span and run it in 2048 x 768 (i.e (1024 x 2) x 768 or whatever res x2 you run your monitors in)

Quote from Tanuva :stretching only the bg image over both screens is afaik not possible with nview, it only allows to stretch the whole desktop over the two screens, which also stretches the taskbar - useful, but windows are being maximized over both screens, too - not useful.

You are talking Bollocks!

If the image is the right size for 2 monitors simply select tile instead of stretch or centre.

If your monitors are arranged the opposite way like mine, simply cut wallpaper in half.

Ultramon fixes the task bar problem too...

I suspect you won't get too many replies from this thread as from my in-game observtion is the majority of drivers can't actually drive in real life judging from their poor techniques which no-doubt come from full throttle all the way round arcade games.

I have altered my actual driving technique using slow in fast out more consciously and better apexing. This has also drifted (pun intended) into my motorcycling...

You have to set both: Wingman to 420 AND LFS to 420 for example...

Didn't think I'd suddenly turned crap, guess I need to ask for a set - a shame since I've been working on my own which (until recently) was awesome...
Fox @ BL - sudden improvement in lap time
Seahorse
S3 licensed
A couple of weeks ago my PB was 1.08.88 and I could comfortably put some 1.09.20s in and be amongst the fastest on the servers.

In the last few days a whole slew of drivers are doing 1.07s there IS a new setup at Inferno, but it's way too loose and the cars I'm chasing don't seem slip at all.

Anone know why the sudden improvement has appeared...

Quote from wark :I just use the print screen button and CTRL+V in photoshop anyway. Seems like a button that would be annoying to accidentally hit on second thought.

I use print screen then forget to paste it afterwards. I hit F5 in HL2 DM - I want the same convenience. Can't see it being a major bloatware issue IMHO...
Screenshot Button

I'd like a button I can bind to my wheel for taking screenshots and a sub directory in LFS where they are saved. They should be the same resolution that I play the game in if possible, JPEGs are fine.

I raced at BL in the Fox yesterday. Every time one of the clan who own the server FUBARd their starts or crashed on lap 1 they re-started. After the 6th re-start it got ridiculous. Not sure you can vote against admins though...illepall

You can only see this option when actually in the car. No available in main menu or options otherwise.

Personally I feel it ought to be a keypress - I only use the wheel in the BMW...
