I like it very much also, great improvement to a great website.

Sure, cockpit only

Wohoo more stats!!! I like stats!

Quote from Victor :

I'm going to reset pb's soon. I will only reset pb's that were made before patch Y though, so all pb's made during roughly the last 2 days will stay.

Great news thanks. Yeah i was bit concerned since i like to keep track of my doings, and even if the laptimes arent too good its very nice to be able to race yourself everytime you are online, and hunt for little improvement in pb. Now that i was waiting for them to be cleared, it also made the aspect of racing yourself tad pointless.. well.. anyway.. thanks for the headsup.. and this great sim.

Merry christsmash all.

lol looks like the poll result is pretty clear eh.

All im thinking is that if the chicane route is some sort of compromise.. its a damn fine one! really enjoying the layout.. especially braking from the highway part is amazing fun

Quote from psychometalist :

I think I'm misunderstood (I hate my lack of english sometimes.)

What I meant was this. Zooming into the gauges. A racer can't move forward to zoom into the gauges afaik (because of the seatbelt for ex.)

edit: and I'm not a moaner for realism, that's what the devs do (I mean making it more realistic). I just try to adapt myself to the game. I loved digital speedos, used them a lot.

Wiping the screen might help ya see cauges more better :fence:

Quote from janipewter :

Soon enough I bet they will make it so you have to buy an LFS adapter for your G25 so you can play on S2 servers. Which will probably cost another £50.

Unfortunately many dont have G25, and arent going to get one since theres so much better stuff around

Quote from psychometalist :

That will be again unrealistic IMO. Imagine a racer moving his head to see the gauges, would be silly (and impossible).

I think a digital speedo (or a bigger speedo) popping in pitlane would be a better solution.

Well at least the funking racer can see the damn cauges in the first place.. always someone moaning about realism.. its realistic to see the damn cauges and what they say in the first place! pffffft!

Yes, im going to rant mode.. thanks to wine.. and frustrasion of the silly argument whats realistic and whats not.. :P

How about a button to zoom to the cauges? so that the view kinda moves closer.. as the real cauges are too small (dont netkar have such feature?), and i only use 80 FOV, but the damn screen is too small and far away.

Thats what the devs want, a serious simulator.. world changes.. and we must evolve.. get a wheel.. youll love it.

Since its most likely going to happen.. hopefully it is done very soon.

Personally i dont care as long as i got cauges that i can see and read.

Quote from JTbo :

That 22% is added to delivery costs too

Wow, didnt even know that! So.. we pay even 22% for the eh.. extended value of good delivery eh...

Quote from Mc21 :

This whole front page is full of love/hate relationships over patch Y.

Most of the hate threads are either from demo users, or users who use a mouse, therefore complaining their clutch burns easy because they press a button to shift.

Personally, I enjoy the new patch, took a while getting used to, but I like it. Maybe because I own a G25

Now can we all stop arguing over it please.

Merry Christmas

If i already had converted to the usual rude attitude and tone of average LFS wannabe id say: "WTF is the point of the thread.. I mean!!!!!! WTF!?!?! point?!?!?!"

But since im still myself, and not converted to such.. im going to just say... Very merry christmas and happy new year for you too!

EDIT:since some super moderator allready merged the thread, quoted to what thread i replied in the first place.

Quote from ajp71 :

The shipping for the Act Labs and SST for the UK and Finland is $40 and no tax, not bad really given the weak dollar. The SST for £110 delivered seems tempting but first I'd need to get a good pair of pedals and I'm not sure whether to go down the build or buy route, I've given up on purchasing TCannon's guide because he appears to be dead and I'm not going to buy it if I can't get the parts for sensible money in the UK (and need to know what they are first).

The ECCI pedals are simply too expensive and so are the Act Labs and Finnmotion pedals really (£175 + shipping). I'm not sure if anybody makes pedals worth knowing about for less than that? What I'd really like is proper pedal placement, adjustability so they can be properly raised to an appropriate height whilst floor mounted and most of all, quality. I don't really need a pressure sensitive brake pedal if that's out of my budget.

The finnish customs add 22% of the value of the product.. its thanks to lovely finnish tax system... can you believe its actually called "value extension tax"... bunch of bollox, allthough we do have a free healthcarea and.. and... cheap almost taxless booze?

hmm ok, i will try that.. when im more sober

Quote from JTbo :

It is your AMD 64 3200+ that is letting you down, I had exactly same CPU and it just was not enough fast anymore.
Now running with Intel Core 2 Duo e6750 and 8600GT, it is all fine, 40fps is slowest at south city, back of grid with 20 AI cars front of me, but under normal racing no problems, with bit more powerful gfx card I might get better fps as cpu is not hitting 100% at all now in LFS.

Before I had X850XT gfx card which is around same speed as this 8600GT but I got only 14fps at such situation in south city.

Ok thanks for that.. ive have lately found myself proving on several occasions that my pc just aint good enough for gaming anymore.. now.. any way to sell a perfectly decent wife for some pc cash?
