well, how abou try to leave the FZR with 90kg of ballast instead of 100?
also, remove 5kg of ballast on the XRR

IMO the FZR must be a little bit faster than the other GTR's, due its NA engine and centre of gravity
the XRR should have more top speed than others gtr's, due its turbo engine
the FXR it's fine IMO

of course, it should not be like before the patch, where the FZR was a lot more faster than the others GTR's

Quote from Shotglass :

I´ve tried that extensively with reving the engine and rapidly moving the wheel to make the car jump around a little I´ve also tried shift+r on steep inclines repeatedly to see if it´s got anything to do with it. Result was I couldn´t replicate the issue that way. However it was done in SP and on my own dedi (0 lag) so I cant be 100% sure that it might not me an issue with lots of lag.

well, that happen on a server that has a little lag in it, i can't remember the name, but is think i was on "Dead Men Racing" running TBO@AS national

many people joined the race before it start, and all of them got "spectate"

if that happen again i'll try to save a MPR

i dont know if was already posted here, there are too much posts here, so read every single one is hard

if you join a race when its starting (before the green light, of course) you are forced to spectate

maybe LFS thinks that the "drop on the grid thing" is the same as doing a false start and walking more than 4 meters

sorry for the bad english

i found the rb4 a little bit faster than the other tbo's now, the fxo is too slower IMO, the XRT seens to be fine, just need a little tweak to be equal to the rb4

on the GTR class its the same thing, AWD is the fastest, the FZR now seens to be the slowest car
the FXR seens to be the fastest on most circuits, the XRR is between the FZR and FXR

sorry for bad english

i think i found a problem in the false starts system

if someone get a false start and go fast to the garage (shift+s) before the green light comes out, then leave the garage(go back to the grid) the DT penalty is gone


i don't how to describe it very good in english, so i'm going to attach a mpr replay that reproduces the bug

this is bad, someone who get a DT penalty due false start can get rid of the penalty before the race start

sorry for bad english

this would be nice in a hardcore mode, very useful for league races

IMHO qualifying and race should start from the pits

and in the race the drivers takes their cars to the starting grid


that should be a option of course, do all those things for a 5 laps races wouldn't be very nice

but as long we dont get false starts that wouldn't work

buy s2

then you will have lots of combos to drive

+1

i got too many setups here, it's a pain to find one that matches with the current combo

also, we can have a feature to import setups from other combos

i don't think that its a hard thing to be implemented(this word exists?), we already got setups sorted by car, just need do add the track prefix to the setup name
like: xrt_bl1_hotlap

i guess that this feature could be done in a compatible patch

I was taking a corner and the RPM started to drop, I was wondering what was going on so I pulled over and hit the brakes.
The engine was actualy off!

sounds like you ran out of fuel

Quote from joen :

One word: licenses.

If modding would be made possible there would be one (IMO) very important condition. And that is, all content should be part of an automatic update system. So LFS itselfs keeps your content up to date whenever version 1.0.2.3 of mod XYZ is released.

yes, the licences would be the big issue if the devs, somehow, be a part of modding.
but if they don't?

one aumomatic update system could be done by someone in community as a add-on
this way the devs stay away from anything related to mods

GPL has a huge collection of tracks, how they did that? i suppose that GPL developers didn't pay for licences, because those mods are made by the community

Quote from joen :

That's the hardest part of it all. Who's going to determine the quality standards and who is going to control them?

just like you propose, the community votes for the best mods, they do some offline "test-driving"

but, whats happen after the mods are chosen? the devs must update the master server.

i may be wrong, but that way they get involved with modding, dont they?

IMO i guess its a little bit soon to discuss modding, we dont even got S2 finished

ps: sorry for bad english, i'm not used to write that much in english hehe

after s3 is out, why not allow only track modding, we get some REAL LIFE tracks?
with a quality control probably some good stuff would be released.

i see the point of view of yours, if modding is allowed a lot of crap would be released, also online racing will become very confusing with a lot of mods around.
but if we have a team of modders, allowed(right word?) by scavier to make mods, only good mods would come out

and who wouldn't like to race a fzr(maybe a lx8) on Nordschleife ?

Quote from Shotglass :

make a video of it ... i dont belive any of that till i see it

i have a screen shot

i don't know how to make a video of it, fraps didn't work

61.371

i guess i'm not from this planet illepall

good work, lots of improvement since "U"

have a good christmas and enjoy your vacation, you deserve it

i think that it was already said here, but...

the problem is that the sounds are too much "muffled", not only in the engine sounds, but every sound related to the car is muffled

thats why skids and crash sounds are too low, looks like the entire LFS sounds have only one channel, so if you change only one sound you change all of them together

i think thats not a hard thing to fix, i belive that this test patch was just to see how we will react with the new sounds, our feedback will help scawen to put the sounds on the right way

that is why important to not spam here saying things like " the sound is bad" "the bf1 is crappy"...

let's say something construtive to help the development of the sounds

sorry for the crap english hehehe

Galvão Bueno is the worst
not only on f1, but on every sports

any server under 300ms should be fine to race, unless you have a very instable connection

here in brazil we got only a few servers under 100ms, around 2 or 3 sometimes

europe servers stay around 300ms here

i'm using a 250kb link and my connetion is very stable, i have good races at european servers, only sometimes i got a little lag

+1

i got a lot of setups here and sometimes i get confused with them

i think that a feature like this could be implemented in a test patch

yes, they can

/p_dt USERNAME :give drive through penalty
/p_sg USERNAME :give stop-go penalty
/p_30 USERNAME :give 30 second time penalty
/p_45 USERNAME :give 45 second time penalty

+1

last week i lost a race because i got extra 7s in my pitstop

and my suspension was just fine

a offline ranking with our personal best laps would be good too

yes, there is the rcm

but everytime that an admin need to send a message he needs to edit the rcm, and thats ins't a quick(easy) way to alert a racer

it would be good if we have a system like the normal messages, where we can block the messages, and an admin can send a private message using the /msg command, but only the racer that he wants to alert will see the message

how about we have a private messages system on the racing server's?

it will be very usefull for admins to alert a user or to others users chat while a racing is going on

sorry if it's already suggested before, if it was, please close this topic

sorry for bad english

the winner takes the licence

the game don't need to be arcade
