Hey guys, I'm lost!

I've been trying to find someone to race with on this league but I can't find a schedule of races anywhere, not even on the website. Now I see some "results" published.

Otolikos, is this a secret league?

Thanks,

Jim

Hi all,

I have a Thrust Master joystick which works very well on LFS. It has 8 buttons, a separate throttle handle, etc.

Is there a way I can map the LFS controls to use the throttle handle on the stick rather than pushing the stick forward? I tried the help files, etc with no success.

Thanks in advance,

Jim

Do you have a website, rules or anything we can look at?

Thanks

Just visited your website and it looks great. It looks like you have many participants, which is excellent.

I tried logging to your server but it couldn't be found. I must have done something wrong. Where can I find the race schedule? Dates/times were not listed on your website.


Thanks,

Jim

Why only 6 laps with a pit stop? That could be too short for pitting, don't you think? Perhaps 10 laps with pit might do better? That way the field gets scattered a little. An open league will get crowded quickly.

Do you have any rules that would sort out the kiddies from the serious drivers? It would be frustrating to be competitive on the edge and get rammed by some kiddie who doesn't know about braking or shifting gears.

The concept of an open league is good and interesting, nevertheless. But if it isn't regulated you will lose the support of the serious drivers quickly. You know what I mean.

Still, I would give it a try as is. It sounds promising. I'll check your website for dates/times. Thanks for your dedication to the sport. It's well appreciated.

Just my thoughts.

Haha... imagination at its best! I don't think we have too many boobies in this game, do we?

How about:

Hi all,

Just became a licensed member today. I thought I'd drop a line to say hi and to thank those S2 licensed who offered their help.

BTW, thanks to the developers for ruining my private life. I don't have one now.

See you all on the track.

Hi folks,

I'm a demo racer. I've been a demo racer for three months now. I agree with some of the views posted by Cr!t!calDrift but I have no serious complaints about S2 members. In fact, most of them have proved to be very helpful when approached for help. Many here share their knowledge, including their setups, with the newbies. And I happen to thank them when I race with them on the demo servers. I always do. I always leave the race saying "thanks for racing with me" even when I lose badly.

But I've had lots of problems with newbies and some not so new demo racers. If I happen to join a race and win over them, they get angry, call me names and crash into me. To all this, I never respond, it's a game after all.

I normally spectate a race before joining. First I want to see what type of cars they are driving and second, I want to see how they are driving. I am a clean racer, not too fast, but clean. If it looks like they are behaving somewhat, I join the race and wait in the pits for a restart.

In all my races only once have I bumped a fellow lightly when passing him and then I let him go by me to make up for my lack of skill. I don't think that's bad sportsmanship. But for someone to come looking for me after the race is over and wreck into my car for whatever reason, is not sportsmanship, they are simply bad losers.

I'll be buying an S2 license before the end of this week, hopefully to find some good folks to race with. I need to get out of the demos before I lose my mind.

Thanks to all the good S2 racers who have welcomed newbies like me into this game. It is well appreciated.

Kind regards,

Jim

yes, if the host is running it (and i believe it cannot be a dedi host), then no problems will occur

Wow! Does that work on demo servers too? Is that why I see GTI's doing over 140 mph on demos?

This is wild!! Ghosts live in the Twilight Zone. There's no time nor space!

But on the serious side, I've been playing this for three months now on the demo and I never knew of any ghost cars. Can you clue me in?

Thanks

Jim
