Quote from Torolol :

VVT can be found on a lot of cars.. It's not like vtec is the only vvt there is. Technology always costs..

but vtec is not just a vvt (variable valve timing) system, as it changes to a complety different camshaft profile, while vvt systems rotate the existing cam profile a few degrees. But you are right, today almost all manufactures have some sort of variable timing and lift system.

The 1st thing I would do is change the bling wheels.

2cm of rubber on a abomination of aluminium thats pretty wrong from the engineering side .. prepare for a shitty ride if you don't

I called this shit a few months ago being an i4T [...]

Apart from ferry engines such as Diesel or Electric.

you sure got a little arrogant since you started racing your truck engined bedframe :rolleyes:

I dunno what favours a V4 will have for Porsche, apart from a little packaging and the grocery-getter-stigma a inline-4 would come with

Maybe they use a hotside-inside layout like Audi, keeping all the hot stuff up and away from hybrid stuff left and right of the engine.

Quote from BlueFlame :

Wow, that's a hard one... sounds like a V6 but at the same time sounds like a 4cylinder.. really bizarre..

someone on youtube suggested a turbo V4, this does indeed share a bit of the raspyness
Ford V4 in a Sonett

or this VFR?

edit: ok, according to this site, or at least the little quiz on the right it is a Turbo V4. Unusual choice.

new spy vid from the Porsche LMP1. Does that sound like a V6 to you? There is "something else" in it that I can't identify, that raspyness.

how is working for you with multiple input devices? Couldn't get the tech demo to work with my DFGT/Sidewinder based setup, and neither got a reply after the "we will look into it" post, nor could I work it out myself

Quote from nikopdr :

I sure do hope these are worth the hype

doing this the DIY way as usual, got a used Recaro for cheap from a friend, in good condition apart from a cigarette burn. Adapter to fix it to the (very sturdy 30 year old) chair base on the left is being made atm.

since Racer X NZ obviously forgot that he posted that pic himself and has to announce a winner, I vote for your caption

the non-availibilty of preorder options is not Kunos fault, as they posted in September:

Quote from https://www.facebook.com/Assetto.Corsa/posts/726358147390506 :

Sadly, in our Country the laws related to e-commerce are very complicated and inadequate for the digital distribution. At the last minute, just a couple of days before to launch the pre-order, we have been informed about some additional documentation and rules that don't allow us to start the pre-order phase already set. This has nothing to do with Steam nor with the development of the game, it's just burocracy.

the development itself still goes as planned

I'm on a total Tame Impala trip at the moment, great band with such a unique sound.

Elephant

Only thing I hope is that they get the sound right at some point. It's the big no-go for the game atm for me. And I don't mean specific sound for the new Premium cars, but the overall sound engine.

IMO GT6 with its 1k of cars could really use an LFS style synthesiser sound engine. Enter displacement, engine form, cylinder number and - boom - sound that's somewhat fitting. You can't expect them to record 1k cars for the game(s).

Quote from Bean0 :

The latest Steam survey says 7%.

Globally it is probably more, but the majority will be business users who are still using it for application compatibility reasons.

supporting old hardware is one of the key features of LFS, so keep that.

Am I guessing right that supporting 3D technology is is also part of the strategy to make LFS a great sim for exhibition and full-motion-sim use? Saw LFS running on some sort of sim rig on probably half the fairs I went to in the last years.

you mean Nudelteigtasche?

Quote from ATC Quicksilver :

Anyway, me and my friend went on an adventure today, we decided to drive a fire truck to the top of Mt Chilliad.

met a guy trying to drive the big Greyhound bus up that mountain last time I played. He had a mate in tractor with him, to push if necessary. Those sandbox possibilities are what make me want the game. The option to create your own races in the next patch looks good too. Gotta create a race up Mount Chiliad in the most underpowered, worst handling car.
