Quote from ree44u :

Well, I was just thinking of the others who have that problem. Isn't there a program that alerts you to vehicles on your left and right side? I'm sure I've seen it working on my bro's pc with LFS...

1th, yes a was a little rude yesterday, not exactly my style, however I was and still am disappointed, we had so much fun with the horns as a way to cumminicate in different ways, NOT only to warn less experienced drivers.

2nd, there seems to he a prg called Pitspeak that actually warn you for cars left and right and behind you however therefor I use the mirrors.

I really hope the horns option comes back asap and lets us enjoy this extra option, without it it really feels very empthy and basicly kills imo a very important aspect of fun.

Quote from Hoellsen :There is no need to insult people, André. Unless you cant get your point across by argumentative means, of course.
The way for faster drivers to go around slower ones is to be careful and make a safe pass. Not to blow horns.

r4ptor: you have the overview map to see where cars are. Use it.

Hehehe, who started with the "idiot" wasn't me babe

And now for the last time, it's a shame that some don't understand, that the horn WAS a friendly way to inform others drivers that something was going on. I call it communication with a button. Silly me Lucky me I have other games to play. LFS made a BIG mistake. Won't see me here again. Have FUN, play fair don not use the horn, you can't

Bye bye, END .

BTW a proper patch implementation would be a track editor, we just ask for that for 5 years now. In stead of silly unwanted "updates" work on real patches.

Quote from Goresh :I for one thank the dev's for dumping this feature in the formula cars, long over due imo. Nothing sillier than having some idiot honking behind me to get out of his way.
As for r4ptor's above post.....you do have mirrors, may need to use them now

You idiot, you don't understand at all !

It was a way for warning slower drivers that faster drivers were coming in.
Was also a way to make fun with other drivers, fast or slow.

Communication with 200 Km/hr, the only we had ...

KiDCoDEa was just kidding about the handbrakes

r4ptor , tnx you seems to understand my point of view.

The Horn was a very helpfull tool to warn also slower drivers.

Now it's gone, and that's a shame. No Scawen I won't go into that issue
Altough it seems to be convinient.
Give the horns back asap plz. A shame that no1 understands at testing ....

The Horns give a lot of extra fun and now that aspect is suddenly gone.
Great patch (...)

Suggestion, restore this option asap .

At some time you will finally understand that you are destroying the intention of the charts.

Quote from Gunn :
In our team we use the charts to good effect for measuring our improvements on a given circuits with a given car. The online stats work perfectly for this. They also keep a record of races that you have participated in. The "sick ones" are those who obsess with stats, not those that use the information in a relevant and helpful way. So you are saying people like me are sick for using this available (and helpful) tool as a racing aid in a team environment?

You are the one who is obsessed with other people's stats, so perhaps it is you who should stop using them? Andre, nobody cares what your stats are, they don't care about other people's stats either and they don't obsess over their position in the list of wannabe winners in the big race to nowhere. LFS World is a marvelous addition to our LFS experience and is not any less so for having stats updated in real time, as you drive. If you wish to compare statistics evenly you have the opportunity to submit hotlap replays to LFS World. Because all hotlaps are governed by equal conditions nobody can cry too much about the stats being unfair.

I can't see how anyone will gain respect by spending twelve hours on the oval in an FO8 stopping only to pit and pee, all for the sake of being the driver who ran the most miles for the day. Nobody cares. Leave these people behind you and get back to enjoying your racing. Treat the online stats for what they are and enjoy the useful information contained there. Many online games have stat-whores, don't let them bother you it isn't worth the headache.


Yep, proberly you're right, I'm just talking about having FUN with a game and some don't understand that concept ....

What Is OCD?

What Is Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder?



Worries, doubts, superstitious beliefs all are common in everyday life. However, when they become so excessive such as hours of hand washing or make no sense at all such as driving around and around the block to check that an accident didn't occur then a diagnosis of OCD is made. In OCD, it is as though the brain gets stuck on a particular thought or urge and just can't let go. People with OCD often say the symptoms feel like a case of mental hiccups that won't go away. OCD is a medical brain disorder that causes problems in information processing. It is not your fault or the result of a "weak" or unstable personality.

Well said, I agree it must have to do with some level of teaching your kids how to behave in real and virtual worlds... Funny to see that the sick one and the other, who worked together in the previous months to get on top of the charts, now are split up. Maybe the sick one finally understand he is cheating ? Is it therefor he, and driving finally alone, he won't be on top this month ? Strange it is, normally he already did some 40.000 distance .... (with 2 drivers)

I think he wakes up and understand that also the charts are mentioned for fair drivers and let his friend win the distance this month.

Stil means that the charts are for the sick ones and must be closed at ones.

Quote from KiDCoDEa :the real answer andré is http://timecube.com/

Nah, it's all basicly about having fun. I'm sure with some severe lobotomies you can do better then 140 metres. In the mean time , with some social life, I have the fun Let the sick ones get the "some charts" every month again, let them show the amount of brain damage. Better would be that those charts are terminated because it leads only to misunderstandments and even to very infantile and unwanted pm's.

Quote from André :Really strange this one. Drove for last months only Kyoto Oval, at some point I became only slower, best I could do was some silly 36:6X .

Started for fun with another track: BW rally with rb4, great fun btw

At some point back to the Oval and with the V8 I sudenly did again as before easily 36.4x .....


Mentioned before ?

Funny is that I did experienced it again. After doing Rally at BW, at Oval with V8 I'm way faster. Something to do with my wheel (old momo red) ? does the rally track somehow kalibrate my wheel for the Oval ?

Quote from Hoellsen :You actually put energy in thinking about those stats? That energy is better used by just sitting on the toilet.

Funny, just read Gunns message and suddenly thought about toilets
You're very right, and as said be4, lets put the sick ones energy in the charts, and let us have fun, as we has always. Unfortunately those sick ones kills the charts, and make the charts useless and a place where the figures just show the level of brain damage

Quote from Tweaker :So this is all about stats? Geez... if you played Counter-Strike in the old days, you would know that stats are so valuable to some people when they actually mean nothing other than the fact that you try and over achieve some dumb results, equaling... yourself becoming a representation of no life or possibly a very bad addiction to the game. If someone were to mess with your stats, you get whining, crying, anger, flaming, all of that sort... and it is so absolutely childish to fight over numbers on the internet :zombie:

What matters most is having fun with this game... but if leading the statistics charts really floats your boat, go ahead.... your decisions are your own.

Well said, though at first I saw it as some extra competition. Now I know it's not. Let's hope the whining will stop at some time and we can continue with the friendly ones I've got great fun for years now. Tnx for the view, it's really not important

Ever tried to drive it the other way ?

To be serious - again - because some doens't get the point: The Charts doesn't make any sense as long as some are cheating. With some jokers the intention of the charts are destroyed and became useless. Pity but true.

Explanation: (again)

There are some brainless without some kind of social life that can drive 24 hrs a day.
There are also some babes living in 1 house with 1 account, when the 1th 1 is tyred the other takes over and get easily, every month again, the most laps, distance, and finished races.

Unfortunately, I win easily most races, sick also, but only to proove that the sick ones are a victime of the common charts intention.

So, therefore the charts are sick and need to be re-arranged or removed !

In that way nobody can accuse me to do some 1 lap races. Yes, it's very silly that some send me very unpleasent mails so I've closed the LFS forum mail option.

When some don't like me doing start sessions, complain not to me, without those silly charts you won't even know about our fun.

Yep, let's not forget we're talking about a game here. Real life, not for all, can be sometimes not pleasant. The LFS game gives sometimes some escape and lead to real FUN with a lot of people around the globe. When you don't like the fun aspect, xxxx off plz.
lap speed gone / other track(s) faster again ?
