The first time I got wheel I started using left foot for braking . It felt natural from start. I never think of not really do like that... :-))
Tried few times in my car but never made it working fine. You dont need to always use clutch when braking.

Look at iRacing. I think its good balance and not overdone.
LFS need upgrade to graphic and there in do doubt about it. At least some better lightning and few shadder effects would make the game more realistically looking and adding immersion.

do not scratch the car....I repeat....do not scratch the car!

Well, I do have a girlfriend. I just don't know if she appreciates it if I post her pictures on a public forum : D

Come on. We want to be jelous

P.S.: does one night stand might be counted as optional girlfriend as well?

Quote from dadge :

i see this too. but for me, the frustration is with the overall impatience of some users. the update will be released when it's ready. and not a day before. the update is most probably going to be free. so in my eyes, you have no right to try to hurry it up. as my mammy would say; "get what you're given and be grateful you got it."

Please dont take it personally really but you started talking like devs. I lost a lot of confidence in them over last 2 years :-(

However, I can belive that 2 years ago might sound like yesterday for an oldie like you

I wish I would have that feeling with LFS still. Not anymore unfortunately...

Quote from Mysho :

How much will this thing cost?

speculations are somwehere 300-400 US dollars. Hard to guess really because the specs are impressive.

Quote from JasonJ :

Well TBH, the graphics are easily better than LFS. The dynamic lighting and shaders really make it pop and this is what gives it more depth. Of course it's not exactly NFS/DiRT2.

Track poly's may only have slightly a bit more detail than LFS, but because it's laser scanned the tracks look and feel much better.
I'm no physics guru, but the cars feel really nice to drive and feel natural.

edit: Actually in iRacing I have learned how to properly trail brake, heel'n'toe, left foot brake.

I dont want any unrealistic overmade NFS/DiRT2 graphic. iRacing good looks to me and those lightning and shaders ad immersity and more racing feeling.
It seem I will really give it try and maybe LFS bye forever....dunno. I need to try it first.

Someone does not brake with left foot? It even never came up to my head as idea not to brake with left foot....

Guys...thx so much for your feedback and help.Much apreciated!!!
This is really nice comunity unless you say something bad against LFS :-))

Quote from sjava :

still remember how you registered 8 years ago?

Yes, I remember that exciting feeling that this will become something big. Unfotunately last few years the expecation went so much down. The old times were the best for LFS. I dont think it will ever come back again but I do not regret it I tried first time. Its somewhere between 8-9 years I am playing it. Even dont remember when the first version came up and I noticed it like 1 month after 1st release. Awesome fun those days and enjoyed nothing else that time like LFS. I even spent 4-6 hours after school training all the time and online racing.

Cheapest way to try is the $5 for a month. Remember to save your real name for your real account. Most good offers are only for new members.

Thanks. I am considering to try those 12 dollars but I wanted forst to hear from players who tried it how they had really feeling from iRacing. From videos it looks a lot better then LFS unfortunatelly.

Quote from JasonJ :

That's the reason I tried it to, same as you. The cars seemed to move around realistically in youtube vids and it looked nice. I didn't try it for many months because I wanted to try it for free as well.

And how it was in the game itself...same feeling?
It also does not seems the tracks use much more polygon then LFS but the textures are better and they use DX9 lightning at least so it make big difference to what we have in LFS...at least the lightning they could improve in LFs..it add sometimes more to immersion.

wtf Fail

I mean this one... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wyFYI085Its

or this one http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X2RjMH8XVo0

As I said the mass movement and suspension looks very realistic. I would really like try it but I guess its not possible....?

I saw some impressive videos for iRacing. Is it possible to try it for free for some period of time or anything similar. I would like to gi it try...

The move of mass and supsension seems to behave more realistically then in LFS :-((

I miss all the old guys. It were always great races with all of them...

You are right with 1/80. I misinterpreted Opera exif output. Np :-)) When u use flash inside try 1/25 with F3.5 and iso 1600-3200 (you need to use M modem though). It give some nice more natural pictures then using the standard 1/60 or 1/200 options which give some hard light.

Yeh I saw from exif . I think the 18-55IS can handle easily 1/20 sharp as it has quite good optical stabilization. You had 1/125. Not neccessary so you might use ISO 1600. Anyway I think its matter of practise and learning curve :-). Enjoy your camera.

...but that one is for socket 775 and has larger L2 cache on which P4 architecture was very dependant. This is quite difference

I would recomend to spend just really few bucks and buy better graphic card.
Do not invest more into that system. Its waste of money and save it for a new one once you will be able to do so.

I am suprised the iso 6400 is so nice even having quite a bit loss in sharpness.

thx!

Vari and Preszi....memories of old guys...

You get the message when u did not download whole selfextracting archive.. It happend to me as well. Just try to download it again.

Hi,

EDIT: Victor was first ofcourse :-)

Hi Scawen,

I am here for years and I know quite well they are not paied for that at all. Its just everyone want you to be focused on one very important thing. We dont have to tell... :-))

However...its nice to see you around from time to time.

Quote from Scawen :

Please can we stop this argument?

Rynno666 and others... if you just stop now then the thread can be back on track.

Don't answer... just stop, please.

Should not moderators do their job here...

Quote from Flame CZE :

Alright, next one.

Nice post Flame....but it says only one to me. More and more people getting frustrated there is happening nothing really major around LFS for quite a long time...
