Seems like if a time buffer/counter was placed between races, then at least let me know what the next track is so I can go make changes if needed before hand. Dont just change track and boom I got 10 secs to make an adjustment.
-----------
Not that I want to download an 80meg file but saf the safs??? Please explain why zipping all the safs would not work? Honestly, its a shame that http://www.puremxs.com doesnt include models/skins in a clean list to download. Oh, and I think forcing downloading user content while in game not only lags the player but everyone else playing taking up bandwidth from server, so not good. Maybe output to file of all the missing skins so we can decide to get them or not would be above and beyond help.
-----------
Encryption??? :roll: Ok, so I was just wondering how many bits would be enough, 64 or 128? PGP, MD5, SHA? How secure should we go for locking out these precious skins? And is skins enough? What permissions do we set for the file? Is an Admin allowed to do anything like delete it, or like you said it stays there forever until we have to FORMAT our HD to remove them? Nevermind there is 1 person developing this...

I was talking to Wakestyle last night, he is currently making up the skins/model section, so yeah, that could be the solution

I'm sorry JohnnyMac but you are a waste of space on this forum. All you do is suggest things that have been suggested before and for some reason feel like you should try to make other's ideas sound stupid. I never told jlv that he needed to take all this on by himself...that is his choice. Also I never said not to let people delete their skin file. I simply meant that they could not open it with notepad and rip skins. I hope you can grow out of your current mindset and learn to consider other people's ideas instead of trying to make them sound bad. Oh and about PureMXS I'm sorry I'm not developing it fast enough for you. I'll turn on the afterburners until it meets your standards.

@ Wakestyle
Fair enough, I can see my arguments could be read the wrong way so I'll tone it down. So Im sorry and apologize. However, if this
I'm sorry JohnnyMac but you are a waste of space on this forum.
continues to be your attitude, then we will have a problem.
