Does anyone know how replays in the Papyrus sims work? They have the best replay controls of any sim out there. Play, pause, rewind, fast forward, frame advance and reverse, and the ability to cut just a portion of the replay. Even if this requires much more space, I think these type of controls would be worth it.

Quote from lalathegreat :U guys are acting like babies. What is the point of having the cars if they same are all very similar. seems to me that as soon u loose a race u blame
it on the car being faster.

It seems to me you guys arent taking advantage of the specific advantages of each car. Only reason i say this is because, i never see any talk on setups on boards. Seems everyone just goes and downloads what they think is a fast setup.

instead of asking the devs to make u faster how about u learn to improve setups.

As a demo racer, you know nothing about the unbalanced car classes. At blackwood, the XR and the XF are pretty close to even, and the XRT is in a class of it's own.

Quote from WGooden :How about one of these in North America for once.

I'd love to see one of these here in the United States, but even if there was as much interest in LFS as there in in the U.K., transportation is a big problem, the U.S. is simply a lot bigger, and I think the cost of going to a LAN even would be prohibitive for most gamers. I've thought the same thing about a Karting event here, while it would be a lot of fun, I doubt most LFSers are going to be buying a plane ticket just of a day of karting. To quip a line from Australia, it's the tyranny of distance.

It would be extremely useful for teams, leagues, events, or anything that's time sensitive

Quote from Fordman :Buttons, sod it, lets just have his wheel and with a FREX converstion kit, attach it to the DFP.

Then one ( cannot remember his name, but he's on here somewhere with his amazing cockpit ) wire the whole thing up

Are you thinking of GrandSurf? Here's his cockpit

it's an interesting concept, but I'll believe in it when I see a prototype running on gasoline actually powering a vehicle.

Wheels are the biggest thing that always bugs me about rFactor, they look like they came of a low end game from 5 years ago. Even the ad picture of the new BMW F1 car for rFactor had me thinking, "wow, that looks bad" even though the model is very good, it's the wheels that bring it down. Other than that, having not played it, I can't pass judgement.

If you're interested, swing by NASSA by 500Servers and race with us for a bit. We're generally a fun group of guys to race with, come give it a try

Quote from rediske :I asked Victor via PM about the avatars a week ago. He replied that I was the first one who had asked for them at all... Basically he said: since they were disabled when the patch was released and no one asked for the avatars to be enabled again he just left them turned off.

So with this thread there might be a chance to get them back....
I love them because they make recognizing people easier and they add some individuality to the users ...well sometimes

LOL! I never said anything because I just automatically assumed that they would be turned back on. I'm guessing most other people thought the same thing.

I don't really remember the email. Send a PM to Victor. http://www.lfsforum.net/showthread.php?p=132538#post132538

There's a post by him so you don't have to go searching through the database to find him, too.

Good Luck

Am I the only one who finds it's funny that Scawen says that it's impossible that it's coming from his part of the game, and Victor is saying it's impossible that it's coming from his part of the game? Clearly Eric is at fault then

Send a PM or email to Victor, and he'll be able to help you out.

This is a very strange problem, I've never heard of it before, it'd be nice is Scawen saw this thread, maybe he could help.

Or we could just Turbocharge the FZR, but keep it at 490BHP, that would be more similar to a 911 GT2 as well, IIRC.

It would sure help solve the turbo lag problem

I'd really like my avatar back, it really helped you to "know" people. Not exactly putting a face to a name, but close.

I personally hate images in sigs with a passion, and would never turn them on.

It's no screamer, but it's my dad's computer and all he does is photoshop really, so it's fine. I was just wondering if it's a total P.O.S. and needed replacing, but it seems to be doing okay. Thanks for the responses though

Quote from Ian.H :<http://ds-autos.digiserv.net/> has all my scenes

I'm currently working on a BF1 scene too that I'll release when it's sorted.. in both Brazil and VRay formats:





Regards,

Ian


EDIT: Doubly OT.. heh, HTF do I change my flag here? I'm English, not British

EDIT2: I presume the BF1 is covered by the same copyright / conversion / release conditions as the other cars.. but if Scawen or Vic are still browsing this thread for any reason, could you confirm this either way please? I ask due to the deal with real life counterparts etc.. don't want to tread on people's toes

Thanks!!

I think it would be cool to have real automatic transmissions simulated, I wouldn't use them, but I think as a physics demonstration it would be pretty cool.

Yes, I realize that automatic shifting is in there as a driver aid right now, but it's very unrealistic, the only cars I can think of that shift like that are a few Ferraris and Maseratis with the F1 transmission, and SMG equipped BMWs.

Ball-Bearing-Turbo is correct, while enthusiasts would obviously buy the car in manual transmission form, all of the street cars in LFS save the LX4 and LX6 would be available with an auto.

All this being said, I'm guessing it would be costly and time consuming to develop a real Auto trasmission, and I doubt it will ever make it in the game.
