There are only two relatively tight corners there on Westhill that make a contrast to the general high speed driving providing good chances to overtake. If Westhill is slowed down any more it will eventually become a second Aston.

Quote from Danny LFS :PS: My XRG skin. Private for now, but I might release it to the public soon.

You don't have to release it because almost everybody will be able to do an even cleaner version of this with paint in say five minutes.

Quote from phawin :Could u upload this skin and my previous skins (TeamToyo and Redbull) to LFS World, please?

Don't know if you have ever been on a forum but whether or not, some hints:

-Make no multiple posts in a row, you can edit your last one.

-It is forbidden to ask to get your skins uploaded!

-There is a thread that fits every car in the Finished Skins Section.

Quote from Stiggie :^ I can confirm that, went bicycling on my race bike today, finally. Hated the damn wind though.

Are you really complaining about bicycling in the Netherlands?

Quote from FPV_125 :edit ...pics dont work

Umm.. for me they did.

Quote from BastianB :men i love your car. Minus the rust it would be so awesome to own one of this cars. I like these old cars, my GF drives an old Fiat Panda 1000 and its totally awesome to drive this little thing

That's the reason I bought it for. Getting rid of the rust will cost me quite some bucks but rust is only a cosmetical problem on this car (though the right hand side looks a bit worse).

It's weird how people can't wait until the new tyre physics are released. I mean I would like to see them but as I have no real racing experience (going 200km/h through a city for instance) I can't really imagine how much the feeling of the cars is going to change. It may be interesting too but it will definatly be irritating and frustrating the first few days/weeks to learn driving again.

So until the patch arrives I'm just happy to know how to drive and improve LX6 or FO8.

Quote from jibber :I'm digging the tyres!

Me too.

I'm just waiting for them to get a little dirtier, so they don't look as plastic-ish.^^

I thought I'd show you some more of my rusty ride.


It looked like this when I bought it last November:




Now I've got the summer wheels mounted again...




... and painted some white walls on them again ( like I did on the winter tyres ) ...



... to make cool posing photos like this one ^^ :

Quote from anttt69 :I have a few questions about this game?

Can u set GTA up so when you jump into a car you are driving it with a G25?

I for one can not recommend using a wheel. I have not tried the latest patch since I lent the game since many weeks ago. What I experienced was a huge dead zone in the middle since analoge steering is designed for paddle sticks. Also the amount of turning your G25 does not affect the angle the wheels will turn in the same way for every amount of speed - just like steering with paddle sticks or keyboard. The same applies to accelerating and braking.

For playing the game steering with the keyboard works very good for me, I have very little experience with the Xbox version of the game. Though there were times I just wished I could cruise through the city instead of either parking or racing.

Quote from Subphonic :That looks kick-ass! Probably the wrong place to ask but what do you edit to get the matte look? I've been after that 'Two Lane Blacktop' feel for a while now, got it nailed in renders but not in-game.

In the LFS main directory a file can be found named "cfg.txt". Near the end of the file you'll find a line where "car shine" and a number behind it that can be changed from 0.00 up to 1.00. This however effects everything that's shiny on a car most notably including windows.

Quote from andRo. :But those reactions were even before Lynce posted his picture. Look at the reaction from Lynces picture?! And skipers picture does look very good. No matter, that he used different background or anything else, it fits the theme. So, no wonder why everyone liked it.

Anyway, I don't really care, just stop making a mess here at the topic and argue via PM.

I never complained about the reactions on Lynce's picture. And speaking of skiper's picture... well is it really that - skiper's? Does editing one pixel on a screenshot make it your own if you show it to people like that? Where's the border between "my own picture" and "my edited version of another ones picture"?

Quote from brandons48 :5tag - Can you stop making such an arse of yourself around the Photomode competition? All you've done in recent competitions is have a little rant, it's pathetic, half the time you don't even enter.

I don't like to be rated by a bunch of 14 year old racing gamers, that's why I usually don't take part.

Quote from DevilDare :5tag, that time of the month again?

Look, why are you so angry that people like skips work? Does it affect you in any way? No... So quit whining...

I couldnt care less even if it was done in 1min... As long as it is complete and finished up to the standarts and quality of what he showed, I am fine with it! Are you telling me to like someone who spent 5h on their entry, even when its crap?

Just drop the bullshit mate. You cannot tell others who/what to like....

If you would have had the time to read the whole argument and not just jumped in to tell me a lesson you would have noticed that in my opinion personal taste should not matter when rating competition entries.

Quote from skiper :Ok, I agree, the edit is lame. I hope the rules don't forbid lamers to participate?

Of course that would be absolute nonesense. I was just having a go at people that think Lynce got some opponent with you.



Quote from andRo. :OMG! You guys are a bit weird. Is that jealousy or what? Who cares if he cut&pasted the screen shot. He never said, his picture is any better than Lynce's + he never even said, that his picture is good at all. Nobody said that, then why are you making this crap?

Quote from aoun :Now thats a car showcase!

Quote from tinky winky :oh my gosh.. new wallpaper!

Quote from speed1230 ::faint2:
Look out Lynce, he's got some skills there

Quote from andRo. :Skip, that looks faking awesome. Remove the number plates and it will be even better.

Quote from e2mustang :aiight lets close this. and the winner is ! :skiper !

Quote from MMMaaaXXX :Oh my! :jawdrop:

Quote from DevilDare :Killer.... :eye-poppi

Quote from jrd.racer :Nice thunderhead, but...............Amazing work skiper!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1 new desktop background here.

Quote from andRo. :The voting hasn't started yet, how can you know that everyone likes Skiper's picture more than Lynce's picture?

I never said that. I was just pointing out how people like it generally.

Quote from andRo. :This competition is not made to fight for how long and how much effort was put into the pictures. Lynce has been doing this for a long time, many people are not as good as him and they try their best as they can.

I never said it was the only neccessary thing but the amount of effort is an important part of my criteria.

Quote from andRo. :The most important is that picture looks good and neat and it fits the theme well

One point for looking good, no point for looking neat and a half point for fitting the theme well equals 50%. Imagine you're in school, should somebody be cheered on seriously for getting ~50% in a test?

Quote from andRo. :Everyone has their own taste.

I already pointed out that in my opinion taste should not be a valid criterium to rate anything in any kind of competition.

Quote from andRo. :Now I'm scared to enter with my picture, because everyone will start blaming me for using different background picture.

You don't seem to understand me the way I would want you to. I'm not flaming entries but people's reactions on them.

Quote from skiper :Sorry. I'm not good at English, I must have misunderstood something. Why I offered it that way? Because some wise guys think that to make a real photo look in LFS style or to make LFS screenshot photorealistic is as quick as "5 minute copy-paste job", and basing it upon their opinion they want to forbid such actions.

Could, at this forum at me ten images of pure screenshots from LFS
But this time I have wanted to make so.

I honestly don't understand anything of that. I am criticising you picture because it looks boring and a bit cheap to me. I have the feeling you have not put much effort both thinking and working on that picture.
For me that has not so much to do with the rules discussion.

I listed examples of things you could have changed. If you did some things like that the rules discussion would still be focused on you but I would not criticise you for entering a lame edit.

Quote from skiper :Well, show me a minimum five works, from five different people, the same level!
Which sit at this forum

I guess ten of them already posted here...
I don't like using more external image than LFS but that is not the point. You could have positioned the FZR so it doesn't look out of perspective (see front wheel and spoiler), you could have added other wheels that look a little more like GT Racing, you could have changed colours of the car, the sky, the curbs whatever, you didn't even think of just letting the FZR drive the other way but no: It's just the same image like before only with the FZR, FZ5 added and a little less colour saturation.

I find it sad how short minded people are... as if Lynce's and skiper's entries were equal somehow.


Don't get me wrong, I'm not one of his fanboys and I don't like half of what Lynce does but that is a matter of taste. Fact is that it's always high quality and that he's putting very much effort into his work. Thus if anything he does with LFS would be a competition he should win many of them in my opinion because I don't like half his work but taste is not fair.

It almost hurts me when for a screenshot editing competition a five minute copy&paste job is being favorised and cheered on. It's neither neat nor inventive. On top of it the focus is not on the FZ50.

Somehow I am sorry but I had to say this.
