BF1 Instagib-T1 Edition (with adjustable gravity)
Weapons Vs Speed S3.0-Missile Edition :hbomb:

just an example , im all for modding but at what cost. It works with FPS alright , but racing sim community just isnt big enough to support it in the same way i feel. Sure there is the dedication, skill and community , but i dont quite think the userbase is quite there yet to absorb the potential.

I Know S3 is a while off yet, with most modable engines comes one thing , a glut of comletely redundant useless mods creating a wealth of problems for the future lifespan of this "pure"! game imo.

Random Idea if game was totally open.
Only way i can see combating "death by mods" this maybe is for devs to charge for the toolkit, linked with account, and some sort of info/tag data with linking to racer who created.

Im more in favour of simple things for LFS modding:

Physics - Locked
Track/Editor - open
Car/Editor - Locked
Gui/Gamemodes - open

would be nice to rocket jump overtake though

no particular order, LTJ Bukem , Goldfrapp, Cooper Temple Clause, DJ shadow, Depeche Mode, Rage against the machine,Adam Freeland, Black Rob , The Cure, Plump DJ`s, Lamb , Photek, Josh Wink, George Michel, Foo Fighters and many many more.

Favourtie racing tracks From some of those Listed above

LTJ Bukem - Daemons Theme
Goldfrapp - Let it take you/koko
Cooper Temple Clause - Panzer Attack/Lets Kill Music
DJ Shadow - GDMFSOB
Depeche Mode - Its no good
Black Rob - Like Woah
Rage Against Machine - Bomb Track
Adam Freeland - Nowism
The Cure -Accuracy/ The Forest (all mixed up)
Lamb - Angelica
Josh Wink - Sweat/boombox
Foo Fighters - Hero/good greif

Quote from JJ72 :

if you run the oval anti-clockwise for 666 laps nonstop the batmobile will appear in garage 22 which you can only access by pressing F11 into the doom mode.

doesnt work

or if you have admin access to server or are hosting your own set /midrace no

this will stop the usual nonsense but can be frustrating if its a long race and you join late , but still should help somewhat.

/midrace=yes X :no / yes (Join during race)

:wow::something:woohoo:erm i mean great Final Race chaps, onwards and forwards.

maybe the vehicles are just right

look at the big picture and what future class might looklike in present format.

XRG Vs XFG
RB4 Vs XRT
FXO Vs LX4 (or TBO4)
LX6 Vs RAC Vs FZ5
UFR Vs XFR

UF1,F08,F0X and BF1 are all in their own

GTR Class mmm well maybe we have one more car to make GTR class that devs havent finished yet ?
sooo...

XRR Vs FXR
FZR Vs ???


I do agree that FZR and FXO in the current class are just to fast and faster this is addressed the better racing we all could have. Luckily FXO is my favourite car so although it bothers me that im driving the "noobmobile" i also am comfortable in knowledge that ive got fastest car in the class.

But i do miss silly RWD drivers trying to overtake this machine of elegance so if you are reading Mr Roberts please can you slow down my car a touch, nothing drastic just a reduction of power, (maybe just reset FXO hotlaps not entire data) im sure the community would appreciate this greatly if it were possible without having to reset hotlaps entirely, or alternatively just segregate the 2 offenders (FXO/FZR) from having ability to upload hotlaps , and maybe spend a a few weeks testing different balancing of the vehicles. i really not sure whats for best , maybe adjust class for TBO so its just TB and a new class O4 or all together (TBO4) and just tweak FZR.

??? i dunno its tricky topic for sure

no to sig images
no to avatars (was a hard descision after stupid comp)


Faster i can flick through the forum the better, clutter free and a lot more proffesional imo.

sorry if my earlier post seemed negative , i should smile nod and carry on
nope , i think a good and helpful way of curbing behaviour is just to set the difficulty setting in accordance to experience.

ie

on < newbie > say 0 - 1000 miles < Learner > 1000-2500 miles
< Ok > 2500-5000 miles <fast > 5000-10,000 miles <Pro> 10,000+ miles

so say you have 5500 miles on your stats , you can join newbie,learner,ok and fast servers. and i think it would help keep certain levels of the learnng curve more accessable.

A learner server .. eg.. say 15 new guys are racing , takes one Pro class skill racer to join and help with sets, lines cars etc , i think it would benefit LFS in so many ways and reduce the amount of admin currnetly neeeded and help with the existing & expanding userbase.

sorry if this has been mentioned elsewhere, and i strongly disagree with masterban list thats just not neccersary and not good for anyone in long run.

Quote from Vendetta :

taking the idea from this thread on RSC, i think we should try the same thing here. The idea is to post the names of some drivers who you had a good time driving against in race of some sort..ill start off :

Damn right, that was great thread

so many racers i could name but ill stick to ones who i feel really help making raicing in LFS more addicitive then caramel chococlate digestives.

Quote from thisnameistaken :

To be honest I very, very rarely see deliberate wrecking on S2 servers. I do see a lot of inconsiderate driving though, and a lot of newbies joining servers full of fast guys and not actually trying to stay out of trouble.

Even saw one clown tonight join a server wearing a vMax skin. illepall

I see this happening every other day now. Not so bad on team sever as most have been banned or kicked or will be if spotted.

What makes me laugh is the increase of idiots that like to force you off road , and then when you hold your line and they crash , its suddenly your fault some people dont like tasting their own medicene.

This ^^ so far happened to me maybe 3 or 4 times this morning already.

Its got to the point where only good races are in league or on a trusted team server or our own.

One side note it seems .. newbs are like Agent smith infecting the whole community, rather then replenishing which used to be the case.

/rant over

spotted This over at www.guru3d.com

i wonder if the hotlapping system is getting a overhaul with the new layouts ? A bit off topic , but more configs for car ranks would be nice.

If you have forgotten game password
log into the mainsite http://www.liveforspeed.net and send account details and then start LFS and unlock again , but be careful only 3 unlocks per month
*edit*
Or just redo game password

I cant wait for the patch, it will give me a chance to get top of the TBO ranks again (esp RB4)

i spend about 10 min eating and 15 min sleeping , rest of the times is all LFS

Good idea dude , will help making some track/layout ideas workable.
Hopefully it is somthing devs could squeeze in ?

This next Event/Round will be hopefully perfect i think ive ironed almost all the bugs out (appart from oversleeping)

Looking forward to next Sat o/

Agreed this community has its ups and downs, but even after 3 years of living for speed , i still think its one of the freindliest and honest, and kind.

:smileyrai <--LFS Community + :boing: <---BuddY ChRisT = :huepfenic

no problems
7800GT (84.21 WHQL)

Its a bit strange how pasting text into the chat window totally crashes LFS to desktop, it is a bit of a pain tbh.

Thanks to all that made it this morning , including myself , i di get out of bed at a good time 10.00 am but tried to get more sleep and accidently set sleeper to 2hrs instead of 1

I hope you all had fun and for those that missed round one , penalties will be used ( ie you get demoted a car ech race you miss)

I will also add next saturdays schedule a bit latter ontady , but now i need my breakfast
