Makes sense to me, I would like servers to force racers to use "real" degrees of steering, and make it impossible to "cheat" by using less degrees.

Currently no car in LFS has "native" 900 degrees of steering. 900 degrees is just the maximum LFS supports at the hardware side. Still, would make sense to change it so that road cars have 900 instead of 720.

Sounds like a faulty wheel to me. I have no such slack in my G25.

afaik lfs does not touch registry

duh

How about getting back to topic..

Just wanted to clarify the wheel setup options for those that are having difficulties with it.

Now that I read OP again, maybe this is what you mean: http://en.lfsmanual.net/wiki/C ... teering_Wheel_Lock_Angles

Also the same info can be seen in pits, under "steering" -tab.

Quote from JasonJ :

Steering Tab in pits is for changing the max lock of the car's front wheels. This is separate to the number of turns required of the controller wheel on the user's desk.....

This is what I was talking about:

Why would you want to turn your wheel to full lock? Parallel parking at a race track?

Restricting the wheel turn settings - I can not see that ever happening.

People use different gear, not everyone has a G25. For example the Momo wheel turns only 240 degrees, yet it is popular among sim-racers.

However, I would like to have the wheel settings displayed online, just like handicaps (ballast / intake restriction) and view options (in car / custom / chase).

This would help me distribute respect more accurately.

Yep I was thinking about Forza 2 when I wrote that. Now I'm thinking you must have a filthy screen.

TVE: You know, comments like that will make someone upset. I suggest we start improving on the LFS Manual or something. You know, create content instead of bitterly refreshing the forum page.

I do not want to argue. Nobody enjoys reading that. Nobody benefits from it.

So let's do something productive for LFS!

Why not a whole screen full of telemetry data, f9, f10 and shift-l combined. It's not like you are supposed to drive while looking at those things anyway..

Yay, a OS -war thread..

I use mac for websurfing and music, linux for ssh and file server, Windows for gaming. I see no problem?

Enough to affect handling, and LFS is all about that

for your experience level, its bad

My user name is funny

It can be very rough sounding and uneven at lower revs.

This is what I want.

Just install the game to the users "My documents" or "Desktop" then there should be no problems with write permissions

Yeah, Juls, you have a awesome opportunity to be a hero!

Quote from BigPeBe :

What? Usually when engine runs on 3 cylinders only it means there is something going wrong... Healthy engine runs on all cylinders. With a "tight" cam the idle can be somewhat "unstable" but it still runs on all cylinders.

Like I said, "something to that effect". I didn't mean that the engines should be malfunctioning exactly (though it would be col after a crash, or as the fuel is running out), but just that the sounds should be more "dirty" and not so perfectly clean.

Do racing cars really respond to throttle instantly at very low revs? I would imagine there being some hesitation but what do i know..


-1 for auto-downloaded user created sounds

The faster you slow the car down the better, but maybe you want to reduce brake force in car setups.

Someone posted a pack of ignition sounds here at the forum iirc
