Quote from Bob Smith :

Those threads just raise too many questions, duplicate threads about where people can get them, etc. It isn't helpful to the community in any way (to show them what they'll never be able to get). It's best to forget about it all and have a cleaner forum.

Why isnt it helpful ? you are talking about LFS Users and not just moderators right? So what if theres a Mclaren parked in my street, you think i am ever going to be able to afford one? should it be allowed to park there ?
Oh yeah hang on ...best just forget and pretend it never happens ...
Getting slowly back on topic .. Id like to make a mod that mods the moderators (Ingrediants - Vodka)

Link For logos seems to be broken. Server keeps reseting connection. Appart from that good luck with competition

I really wish UF1 could have a wider choice of differential , open diff is what really spoils the car for me , and really puts me off driving it.

And im sure everyone who plays LFS has coding ability or even wants to bother with insim.
*edit* thanks for the tip in your signiture*

Well i have to agree this is somthing i thought would of been implimented in LFSWorld and In-Game a_long_time_ago. (in another galaxy ...)

Would save badwidth on master server , peolpe not having to scan server for host list etc.

/me slaps scavier with 2 year old thread

Quote from vf1-xj220 :

hehe... looks like mike need some reading classes.. i said UNIQUE features...

EVERY other game has real tracks
EVERY other game has real cars
A LOT of games have the SAME physics engine
FEW games have a realistic tyre simulation model
at least 2 games have day-night cycle

LFS is unique truly in all those aspects.

Quote from Mike85 :

My vision of LFS is that it is used by millions of people online. That it creates its own genre. Massive online racing sim.
The counter-strike of racing games

I hope it does become massive, but as i mentioned in another post , LFS needs Racers not users. Counterstrike is worst example i would of chosen, its a poor simulator.

And getting to the topic starters question, Id stop playing ... i think if it became subscription based , i am_not paying for that. that my friend is the way of the coperation. Before i start digging deeper into the reasons why , just remember not everyone can spend a night on LFS every other night , maybe once a week or heaven forbid, once or twice a month . Not everyone has money to throw around , i know i dont. When you have a family (which i dont) or you have lots of bills (i do) and have no job (like me) money is somthing that increases in value personally.Now just imagine that all games were like this for a second ....... I play only a few games now online, LFS Supreme Commander and DoD:Source. now imagine they cost £3 each to play each month thats £108 a year .... anyways

Best things in life are free anyway

Anyway I hope the devs dont ever think about doing this , and even if they did its their choice. but to try and arge for reasons why is just a lose lose affair in my humble opinion.

Sinbad its like bbman says, Its about the driver model , women and male, they have a different views due to the eye position. try changing driver models , take a screen shot and compare the views.

not being funny austin but you have similar thread already, asking the same questions.
http://www.lfsforum.net/showthread.php?t=28831
no need to start another.
But to awnser your questions , again

A> practise , practise, practise
B> dont hold the clutch in so long and learn to blip mid shift.
C> practise braking and holding speed before entry of the corners you are struggling with.
D> did i mention practise ?

You missed the option "alien" - using mind control for car control and vision.

anyhows id put myself in "Extreme Racer for now"
But i feel you sorta got things worng way round , its not about the hardware , its about the spirit

Quote from ORION :

quick render I made for a game project we are doing in uni right now... about half a day work

Looks like some kind of Ion Cannon Frigate. I guess game is kind of similar to homeworld ?

Im pretty experienced in most FPS engines , and would love to build "North City" style track.

/off topic slightly
But i will echo danowats feelings here , LFS has remained Pure mostly so far , we dont have a big community and opening LFS up at this point would destroy it, yes people are bored, but look athow it is at the moment.
Refresh the server list ... I have nothing personal against some of the servers
but imagine more cruise style servers more banger servers, servers with half completed projects (LFS is one but thats not the point here)
LFS racer community isnt big enough to cope imo.

LFS has plenty of Cars, what it needs are tracks, and above that more racers, not users

/back on topic
I can and would mod if opened up but i hope thats not for a long time at least till S3 Final has been out for some time. and by then, who knows what the game will contain

I had a look at your replay Austin . i have a short list of things to look out for you in your driving when your racing.

First thing i think you should try is lapping maybe 10-20 or so , so you get a good feel for the car and get used to tyre wear a bit more.

Entry into t1 is a little slow and you are re-correcting the line to much as result.
On the slower conrers you are not wide enough , learn to use wider lines and gently ease power as you come out into exit of apex.
The fast areas arent so bad , but the final corners and chicane you really need to attack those and learn to use the kerbs to your advantage.

And remeber practise practise and more practise (althoguh too much can have negative affect eg learn bad lines, make same mistakes etc)

And like I've mentioned before, take some more time when posting in the forums and maybe oneday kev will enlighten you, as only he can

Myabe your getting confused with the "Pitch" option . tilt afaik is how much the drivers head moves under G (only seems to "tilt" forward backwards)

I hate having to "have a go" but sometimes instead of seeing just the critisism can you try and make an effort, and actually put effort and some care into posting.

My uncle is also a carpenter and he stuggles with the most basic of sentences , but at least he has the pride to try. It might take him 20 minutes to try and complete a small sentence. Making sure that punctuation and spelling are correct. but at least he tries.

Try and take the good from the bad and perhaps next time you post you might even surprise yourself , that is if you really are suffering from dyslexia.

You seem to be able to read ok .....

P.S. Deafness has nothing to do with typing, per se. Speaking may be impaired, but not typing . . .

Having a deaf mother, uncle, aunties etc , i can assure that it has EVERYTHING to do with it.

As for austin , another lazy wannabe, with the victim attitude.

And here it is
Its a new kinda league system ive been toying with for a while now, and decided to go public. So far so good, but its struggling to get racers on the grid and i sometimes get the feelings its perhaps missed/overlooked?
Anyhow i got thinking and thought id pimp it here to gather more interest perhaps

It will be starting on wednesday evenings at 8pm-BST 7PM-UTC
24 spots Left to go once i get 75% of a grid ill start procceedings
the system is developed to work with late joiners to league also.

Its going nowhere at the moment niko im sad to say , i wanted to start things going by tonight. but it seems i gotta pimp harder.

This event/league needs many more racers ,there is TOO much to handle for only 6 competitors.
There are 24! yes 24 places left on the most original League system around.
Ladies & Gentlemen some of you may want somthing different,there are many events to choose round here, but this is unique and designed to create a close league even if your racing against aliens or the beginer. so here it is.
What are you waiting for get your names down.

THIS LEAGUE NEEDS YOU !

Its open to all comers . new, old, the fast & the slow. even the french.

Let people learn the course properly, rather than try to make a new one to learn all over again... which just causes more accidents anyways..

Took the words out of my mouth.

BUMP111!!!

did i mention there is free beer in the pit area ?

Quote from mrodgers :

Where it says....



Above the car list when looking at racer stats... Just click on "-Laps Chart"

aye i knows that i meant in the "some online charts"

http://www.lfsworld.net/?win=s ... 6&year=2007&abc=3

Some racers doing 16,000 a month , would be nice to see some ratio of vehicles used accumilating that amount. I know its possible to veiw laps/vehicle when veiwng online racer stats.

Wont be starting until get we a decent grid bladey
