Welp, I guess I should be sorry for not interpreting your attempt at English correctly

I bought mine for 220€ when it was new, so 200€ is certainly not a great deal today. 100£ is about 114€, which is significantly cheaper.

Rotate your wheel completely left and right. If that doesn't fix it, go to the options and make sure that the calibration lock is turned OFF, then repeat.

Yes it is a problem. Get that namechange idea out of your head already. The only namechange there is is one for £24 and losing all stats.

It's listed as "should mostly be done to get out of ALPHA." Should. Mostly. Nowhere does it say the next patch will contain Westhill updates.

Isn't going to happen. Don't forget that the users on this board are linked to the licenses and are only created by the software that handles accounts (you can't register here on the forums). If you were to change the forum name, you'd have to change the license name, too. The problem with that is that the name is I think de-facto the primary key for identifying licenses, so all LFSW stats or uploads and all info servers stored about you (bans...) would be invalid or broken.

I'm sure it is technically possible to change the name, but it would be a huge hassle and require lots of extra coding and messing around (create a new account, transfer the funds, delete the old account, update all references to the old account everywhere to now point to the new one, etc. and the bans issue still wouldn't be solved). If they ever made an exception and did it for one person, you could be sure tons of people would instantly demand a namechange, too, so they won't even start with that. Also they'd admit that their rules ("you cannot change your username after the registration - your username is permanent!") can be circumvented anyway.

Actually, cutting the USB cable is enough for it to count as "destroyed", but I guess some people just want to go the whole mile :rolleyes:

No, they don't do repairs, but they send full replacements

Sounds like the shifter is broken and needs to be RMA'd.

If you're not under warranty anymore (try calling Logitech either way) and are technically adept, you can attempt to disassemble the shifter unit and repair it yourself, though I don't know what exactly causes the left-right sensor to fail in such a way.

Unfortunately the G25 shifter units tend to break in one way or another, for example the reverse gear ceasing to work is a pretty common one that I experienced, too, but I could fix it by re-soldering together a wire that had broken due to fatigue.

Quote from Greboth :there has not been that many entrants into this competition

I think that's for two reasons
1) Many people think or know they can't skin, so they don't even try
2) They see the already submitted laptimes and know they can't beat em, so they don't even try

Overall, you shouldn't have allowed the entries to be posted publicly (instead only via PM) and maybe a mandatory "entry sent" message in this thread to keep it active. Now that doesn't mean the winners wouldn't be the same people, just that you would've gotten many more entrants

Quote from ANAMENOONEHAD :no new tracks? i hope they really put new tracks its been how long. new tires are great and a new car is good. but if its on the same old tracks.....i dont see it lasting.... my enthusiasm. Hopefully they will suprise us with new environments alot of them.

Nobody said anything about tracks. Scawen isn't the one working on tracks anyway - Eric is. Just because Scawen said new tyre physics are in the works doesn't mean there will or won't be any new tracks available.

In User Control Panel > Edit Options
Scroll down to "Thread Display Options"
Make sure the option "Show Images (including attached images and images in [IMG] code)" is turned on.

The difference is that in IE you aren't logged in whereas in the FF screenshot you are.

Quote from VulcanConray :I agree, It would be great to have a short description of the conceptual differences between the old and new tyre models. Us physics geeks love this kind of stuff It would make playing the game satisfying on a much deeper level.

Yes, it would be really nice to hear a few technical details about it. Though I can understand if Scawen can't or doesn't want to reveal anything about it (yet?).

In any case, from Scawen's post I'd read that the tyre load sensitivity was adjusted, meaning a tyre with high vertical load is less efficient than it is now (less grip on the outer wheel), making the four tyres contribute more evenly to the overall grip. There must be many more changes however, since adjusting that alone would've been possible without writing a completely new tyre model.

Just set the steer lock lower so it fits whatever you perceive to be correct?
