Some updates on the.. thing
Gotta do some configs

Yeh it seems fun to drive or race
I am really having issues fitting driver inside at the moment XD

Working on the soviet car that was designed for people with disabilities
Its the SMZ S-3D. a total shtbox that is fun to drive
I'm planning to make some configurations like : convertible / Taxi / Rally
I'd like to hear your thoughts & suggestions
this is it irl, model is somewhat ready but I'm making fixes and stuff.. As driver can bearly fit inside 😂

ah yes, I've always wanted to drive one of these in lfs. GL

@scawen hey, i thought this would be a helpful tool to add to lfs editor
The ability to lock bone on all frames or a single frame
This helps if we adjusting single bone position, rather than modifying every single frame after that, we just move and lock it in place for all frames without other unlocked bones being effected.

you dont have the right sound file, put this in the editor, load it in the trans/audio section

Oh, must be changed somehow by its own when i edited it today although didn't change engine
Thanks for telling me about it!

Nicely detailed tutorials. Jake, would it be possible to also show how to make engine and its sound and import/export it to editor/lfs

Some skins , already uploaded onto LFSW
templates are now found in skin section and are downloadable as zip file.

there you go better power make sure to use the sound too. sound and engine are different

Cheers man!

Hello, @scawen i want to suggest the possibility of being able to make wheels collision box round shaped
In lfs editor, we can see wheels use their mass also as collision box, some mods like offroaders or big trucks that were designed to climb obstacles actually tend to stop when hitting barriers because wheels collision box is a cube. It would be perfect if we were able to customize wheels collision shape or it to be come round as default thing.

Great work and makes life way easier for skin making for mods!
I always found that the best was to have a white body and black background because it helps with color blending function in photo editors... But the most likely its best to have body wich is white also have the details like if u r looking from side, u see door details and if there's blinker or smt u know where it is ans thats helpful..
Seeing u made many exporting options is great!

Pretty nice but from inside everything is very dark! Also are you able to tweak the default angle of the rear view mirror, it's half roof... (I know we can individually but)

Noted, thanks for feedback!

Mod is published! Waiting for you guy's feedback, have fun

Quote from BeNoM :

On W47 it seems to have gone back down to really slow speeds. Around 20-40KB/s

Same, it's takes forever to download mods when internet gets little unstable and shows errors

I like it so much
But i hope the boost sound gets adjusted/changed a little bit because currently it's high frequency hurts ears
Also if it had a configurable spoilers that would be sick

Quote from Scawen :

Please can you try again, install fresh, do not patch, make sure it *really* is version V, by looking on the entry screen, and see if it says 0.6V at the bottom. Make sure it's not version U!

Because every other time this issue has come up, the person didn't *ACTUALLY* have version V - which is the exact explanation for missing steering animations.

You are absolutely right sir.
I am so sorry for the false report.

Quote from Scawen :

From which file was your original LFS install? Normally if driver animations are missing, you didn't install version V but you had an earlier version than V. In V there were a new type of steering animation.

I installed the base LFS 0.6V then patched it with the W46

Hi, was trying to see why i got these errors i get when trying to use mods.. i pointed it all earlier in this thread, i tried to make a fresh LFS install.. Then i used the direct 0.6V to W46 patch and i actually ended up with even more issues..

The issues with the patch now messes lfs cars and animation as far as i have found, and are :

-Every single car in lfs now has no steering animation
-sometimes it randomly appears as the driver is standing up no matter the car.

These 2 bugs were in the genuine lfs cars after a clean install and a direct patch to w46
People who used the earlier patches and just patched over thier lfs have no problem i guess.
Still couldn't download mods or see them. It's now spamming "couldn't request mod image" and "mod timeout" at the speed of light.

Quote from bayanofmansorofisky :

I think i have what seems to be a bug or idk
It's like this : if i go on single player mode i can see mod list and download and drive..
But when online its a different story.. When i join a server with mods i can see players driving mod vehicles around while spectating but when i pit and get into garage to drive a mod it starts downloading all mods over again although they are downloaded alredy as players are using them and i can see it.. But neither i can select a mod from mod list nor from installed list.. It just keeps trying to download it but never actually do. I am not sure whats wrong here

This issue is still there for me, after the patch W46 i was able to play with mods for a little while but next the errors showed up again wich are: couldn't request mod image / MOD timeout / mod image alredy being requested and along with the same problems mentioned in the quoted message above.
I tried deleting all mods files and re-download them but that didn't help. I might not have the best internet speed here (at all) but after the patches my ping is better and is between 90 to 150 in most times. Idk if anyone else is still facing these issues

This is awesome, i can't wait to drive this, you definitely doing great work keep it up,
I say try testing all pits in all tracks and adjust height accordingly (height of box can be lowered a bit)

Quote from Scawen :

OK, a couple of questions:
- How do you know it is trying to download it? Does it say that on screen?
- Is this always the same when online, or only on a busy server? What if only a few people there? Or even if you are the only one on the server?

yes it does show on screen that it is downloading mod "name"
And yeh it actually happened on a busy server with around 25 players online, but it worked somehow later when it happened to have less players more like around 15 or less with no problems..
When there's alot of players it also sometimes shows errors like (mod timeout / couldn't request mod image) and i couldn't do anything then.
