Just had an idea whilst waiting for a grid slot.
How about a radio channel that racers can tune into (during a race) which is a someone commentating on the race in progress?

Why not? The answer to that question is another question, why? Just make/ask some one to make an insim app that detects when a race is over, then turns on a music player that you already have open on your computer.

(wait is that possible)

Highly possible and fairly easy

Been suggested before, but I`ll agree with it here too.
Would be awesome if servers could use insim to have a music playlist on their server. And that insim program would connect up to a server and play music / radio.

I wouldn't deny the suggestion, but don't really think that would use it too. I think it would disturb racing.
But what for is it anyways? I'm having enough fun with racing..

Yes, a music playlist on the server would be nice, but what about those with slower connections (like me)?

but i still like the idea. personally i like racing with music on, and i always have media player on while playing lfs...

Just convert your music to OGG and play it ingame

I would acutally do this, untill i converted 1 ogg file and it turned into some stupid size on my harddrive

uhm...just run WinAmp on the background and start and stop playback whenever race starts/stops then

I have no need i made myself a insim program thats a mini windows media player too

Well, imagine live murray walker style commentary whilst you race .

i actually get bored of driving after the 6hr mark and i go and do commentaries via the chat function...

it won't annoy you, just type - when you had enough

Glad you reminded me acutally.

Incase you dont know what hes on about i made this little program a while ago to listen to music whilst driving. I was ment to finish it and release it but i totally forgot. Have a look at the pic

You need a better music choice :P

Nice idea though.

Couldn't it just be done via TS?

DK

Haha, there was a lot i was ment to do to that program tho. I only made it for a test to see if i could do it, then i kinda got carried away. Im gonna remake it i think, add the bits i was thinking about at first and more with any luck. Ill also make the buttons more aranged as the one at the top kinda blinds you when driving on lfs. Other then that it works pretty cool


ill keep you posted on what happeneds with it

You got to release that, looks awesome!
