This is probably going to be the only(/last) chance for Button to show what he's worth...

Quote from zeugnimod :The broadcast is already on-demand since about 10 minutes after the event ended.

The only page I get is one where I can bookmark the channel or add it to (crappy) facebook... When I search for it on that page it doesn't find anything... Can you point me to the right page, as that one is clearly useless...

Quote from Vinnylegends :Are clubsports usable on the G25?!?!?!?!?!?!?!

The Clubsports are a seperate USB-device - so every software that supports input from more than one device (pretty much every computer sim) supports the Clubsports too...

Quote from Mattesa :I'm at a loss as to why there aren't more people online.

Elvis has left the building - it'll be a hard challenge to get back those who waited for so long to get something usable...

Quote from G!NhO ::doh: range rover vogue lol

if there would be a SUV in lfs than it should a sporty one like the BMW X5, Porsche Cayenne, Range rover sport, Mercedes ML 530 AMG or the Jeep SRT8.

A sporty SUV is quite an oxymoron, especially those you posted... If you want a powerful, offroad-capable car do it right: Mercedes G... Or the Bowler or various american dirt racing cars/trucks...

Quote from SamH :Ha!

The "penumbra" is the darker shadow under a car (or a table, or chair...). It's an ambient light shadow, rather than a cast shadow.

Also sometimes referred to as "hard shadow"...

The source is surround, right? You won't get any rear signal from your .mp3s...

Well, they certainly know marketing - I'd even go as far as calling it their strongest point...

This may sound dumb, but are you sure you plugged it in correctly? Maybe you mixed up the center/sub plug with the rear one?

Quote from George Kuyumji :Because its a topic for discussion. I wasnt in the other discussions about this which mainly were about modding physics and cars anyway - what this is not about. I dont see how this Thread forces you to participate in it if you dont have no interest. First you was kind of like why dont you discuss iRacing, then you want to make this thread end. Just stay out of it if you dont care about it.

Yes, exactly that was my intention, I wanted to end a thread I don't have any interest in but which forces me to participate somehow... Are you Einstein reborn? :rolleyes: But it conveniently sidestepped answering my question...

Or shall I call you Don Quijote the 138th in the goal of "opening" LfS? Maybe I should come to your house with a bunch of like-minded people to request you opening your door so that we can improve it... See, if you can't take a no for an answer, why should I?

Quote from George Kuyumji :What does this have to do with me and iRacing. Why should iRacing have add-on tracks when new content comes out in great quality every couple of weeks anyway. There are alot of things that I'm asking for in the iRacing Forums that are much better done in LFS like clutch modelling, Leagues etc. iRacing doesnt miss tracks, iRacing misses a huge bunch of other things, but what LFS is missing is real life tracks, and it could have it, as licenses and development are expensive, there is a big amount of talented people in the community, which if there work could be organised and directed into one common direction could bring the finest versions of the real life tracks out.

If you'd have read my second post, you'd know I wasn't asking because of the content, but why you thought it would be a good idea to bring this up when the Devs CLEARLY stated NUMEROUS TIMES they won't go that way, not for a long time? Why respect their words any less than that of other people? Or do you think if you'd just ask hard enough, they'll suddenly change their mind?

Quote from UncleBenny :I think that's because LFS has been around for a while and has gone without any new content(other than the FBM) for a long time. iRacing is still somewhat fresh, if it sat for a couple years with no new cars or tracks you'd see plenty of complaining over there too I bet. And it does seem like iRacing is coming out with new stuff on a somewhat regular basis.

Still, is that a reason to take the countless, quite clear refusals of Scavier any less serious than iRacing's EULA?

And the stuff from iRacing is of absolutely no relevance as you can't use it - unless you buy it (ironically not even then in half the cases)...

Quote from George Kuyumji :[...]

iRacing seems to manage fine without mods and with even less usable content than LfS... Both developers declared they would not (yet) open their game to mods, and yet I haven't seen you suggesting mods on the iRacing-forums...

Why here then?

Quote from Mustafur :why not they all be deisel, its much more efficient and the cars have way more torque.

Haven't seen a diesel producing the same amount of torque (or power) as a petrol engine when the odds are evened out... If you compare a turboed engine to a naturally aspirated one, of course the turbo will produce more torque...

Quote from senn :General public are retards, in any country.

Agreed... But then I'd fire the idiot responsible for that article - either he/she's dumb him/herself or he/she can't research properly...

1. 1000 people CANNOT give any meaningful analysis of a country's youth... I know it says over - that just means there were just over 1000 participants or they'd have put a higher number...
2. 2 % of 1000 people are 20, NOT hundreds - not even one... Surely we can all agree you'll find such an amount of total numpties easily...
3. 77 % of the participants apparently got it right... A number that can be improved (and should be), but to use the article's distorting words: nearly 8 of 10 students knew what Auschwitz was!

Quote from Speed Soro :- It is not too much realistic flying without wings, and 80hp is not enough power to launch a tourism car to the 4th floor.

I beg to differ...

Has this game also some magically indestructible cement? I always cringe when I see Abrams fail against a single soldier because the house he's in somehow doesn't even get a scratch from a 120 mm tank shell... Blows all realism right out the window...

Quote from Crashgate3 :How easy are these games to get into? Is it like counter-strike where you have to play for 8 hours a day, every day to stand a chance of being good enought to even just have fun, let alone winning anything?

I really want to get it and play it, but don't want to have to commit everything to get enjoyment out of it.

You have to like those games - it can be quite frustrating to run 10 minutes to a good position only to be sniped 10 metres away from it and having to do it all over again... So there is quite a steep learning curve about it...

Wouldn't that create quite a low-pressure zone inside the airscoop that would lead to damage in the supercharger and/or the real carburetor?
