Happy to pay a £1 for crisper graphics online. It makes quite a diffference tot eh whole look of the game, and I am into skins big time anyway.
Shocking! For me the choice is simple: in honour of Star Wars 30th anniversary in May all avatars should bear homage to that great genre.
yes, all the textures are in the dds folder, you need to use a dds plugin so you can edit the texture file and resave it in the right format. See Nvidia texture tools plug in for a free applet.
Looks like a very nice strat, if it plays as well as it looks then you have a great guitar.
I have built a few guitars myself over the past year, but not attempted a neck from sctratch yet. There's a couple of them, bodies made from an old slab of mahogany fireplace I ripped out that play really sweet.
They will always be very special to me.

my view is that religion asose as a social tool to help unite people and to drive them to some common purpose. What happened here is nothing to do with religios beliefs, but some sick misguided individuals twisting religion to suit their misplaced causes. So many bad things are blamed on religion though it is really their abuse of religion that they use as justification. I'm not religious at all, i see it as a social crutch that a lot of people find great value in, just that I'm not one of them.
What happens time and time again is that politics gets hold of religion and uses it in a wrong way to suit their own purpose. That's not religions fault; its mans abuse of it.

Driving a RWD car in a fast, balanced way is a little about unlearning the good techniques for the front wheel drive. The fast guys turn in very early and use more accelerator to drift out the back end a touch which helps swing the nose more into the corner. With the fwd this would just lead to more understeer and you will run off into the gravel on the outside of the bend. No expensive garage bills here so try it, loosen up the back and be positive on an early turn-in, give it some gas before the apex and feel the car turning in more. Too much and you'll lose the back end. Too little and you'll run it wide. A little opposite lock to straighten out as you exit the bend, gradually increasing the throttle and you're away!
I recently got the new Passat with the auto-hold button, no manual handbrake at all, auto-release as the clutch bites. That's a pretty realistic step taken by VW to get closer to the real feeling of driving a simulator.
See, Scawen is so way ahead of you and the industry
Lol, exactly same comment I posted on Msz
Do you mean this one?

Since the demo is free, it certainly is well worth the money
sailplanes/gliding
Long before LFS took over my life I was an active member of a forum called Soar, that was dedicated to bolting on clever bits of software onto Micro$oft flight sim in order to recreate cross-country gliding competitions with thermals, varios, off-line race courses, etc. Great for me as an old glider pilot.
Now I see there are 2 competing bits of software addressing this exact sport; Silent Wings and Condor, with accurate thermals and task setting, good flight physics but somewhat disparate graphics. Does anyone here with a Flight sim interest and especially gliding have any knowledge of these 2 progs?

Which one is the best to spend the money on?

Android, thanks for the explanation, but what does it actually mean?
When you drive with very low preload compared to very high? Can it be explained in terms of how the car feels or handles?

I'm sorry but I'm just voicing my opinion about the inaccuracy and negativity of your post, if that offends you then remember its just a discussion forum where people are allowed to argue their own points of view. I don't see how bringing my digestive tract into the discussion will add further merit to your argument.
There have always been a slice of poor-driving demo racers about. As the game gets bigger it should attract more, just as the forum keeps expanding, despite the arrogant mods attitudes.
What does detract from the community however is this proliferation of mob rule when it comes to demo racers, there's a minority of forum members that take every opportunity to be very insulting to new demo drivers who are just trying to get into the game, Scawen's next future customers if you like, and I think we need to do what we can to work against that blanket prejudice.
There will always be a selection of users just out to cause mayhem and wreck people's races but they will grow bored and move on, to be replaced by a new lot. They are not in general getting any worse than they always have been.
If the situation on the demo servers causes you so much consternation, why not race with the other S2 members on the S2 servers?
Thats the finest Fox skin I've seen in a long time. Great work
What on earth are you on about? What is this thread about? Do we really care?
oh and stop fragging me, us mods should stick together
-1, I recall a big heated debate a few years back when lfs was on rsc, about this issue and the possible fragmentation of the LFS community.
As a general principal, i think there is nothing to be gained and a lot to be lost from this 'tribalism' of wanting to belong to a LFS subset. It's a GAME, a recreational pastime and it can be enjoyed by many people on their own different levels. That's what makes it great. Embrace the differences, don't try to partition them off.

Joined since Jan 2006 and only 10 posts, your observations about n00bs are derogattory, ignorant and inaccurate. I don't agree with your comments; there are plenty of new racers out there trying hard to learn the ropes, and doing well. There are also the usual few (very small minority in reality) that give rise to your sort of sweeping statements that gives out a biased impression which is not helpful for anyone.
Had a really good single player (restricted LX4) vs ai (UF1) race round Fe Green just now, got me thinking:
a) Less restriction on the AI cars to make them more competitive to race against
b) they are still easy to outbrake so make their brakes comparatively more effective and then you have good, competitive ai to race against for the first time
c) Still need to sort out their bully tactics when it comes to the racing line with no appreciation of your car's presence
d) Restricted class LX4 (novice) races, this poor car (and the LX6) get so little airtime compared to the brilliant close, accessible and well-supported races in the XFG and UF1. Make the restricted LX4's a new novice class for some great on line battles - a bit like the trainer classes in GPL with less HP and less chance to lose control.
This patch and the restriction option has a lot of very interesting possibilities.

tried out your uf1's vs LX4 round Kyoto Nat, they seem very evenly matched
i don't know if its my lack of familiarity with the more powerful rwd cars but I seem to get a huge amount of understeer under braking when entering a corner, far more than before. Maybe the new clutch settings need something dialled back out, or I have to learn to drive better...
good idea, and switch team autobalance back on if you can! 4 against 1 ain't fair (esp. when I'm the 1...)
I'm going in.................
