It's a nice vid! But, you need to work with you're camera :P It's very, don't know the english word but when you don't have enough smoothing..

But both editing and footage was good. I don't like the music but that's individual so. Hard to make everyone happy with music :P

Anyway, it's nice but, work with smoothness in shift u and your movies will be hundred times (atleast) better!

Why don't you go infantry only on 16 player maps? Much more fun imo.

Quote from Riders Motion :

...or ask Team Orange for their drift set (Which you will never be able to get!)

It's not the set, it's about drifting with hot tyres. So, after 2-3 laps you get tons of smoke and it's, imo, much more fun to drift on hot too.. (But of course, to drift lap after lap after lap you need a set which works for you. But it's not 100% that you could do it with a setup from Team Orange)

Or, take hybrids in the rear and you'll get the smoke earlier..

Thanks FEL!

Hey!
First, awesome sounds and really fun that they are in LFS as a standard now! Congratulations!

But, there's one thing that annoys me, I don't have the old sounds left and I would really like to have the DaveWS_2 for FZ50. So if anyone could upload a pack that contains it (I think it should be version #2 (I only find posts where it has been updated to V3) or just the file, I would be really happy!

Does that even work with LFS?

Tried Fraps? Most used program for recording... Check your PM!

Quote from Jakg :

its called AA+AF

And, it COULD be that when you take your screenshots, you're having higher resolution on the pics than in Windows. Then, in windows, in it's own photo-viewing-program it zooms out a bit so it covers the whole screen.. If you check in Photoshop (or in any other program), is it still blurry? (If not, check if it's at 100%, the viewing-thingy).

Quote from Rickii :

its called...WHAT?!

In Windows, rightclick on desktop, take properties, settings and advanced. Then you should be in your graphicscard's drivers? (Don't know if that's the exact words in english, since my Windows is in swedish..)
Then, look for a menu with 3D (maybe something more) and in there, you have anti-aliasing and anisotrop filtering (and some other settings). Pull them up to full and your LFS will look much better (if it isn't on full standard, but it shouldn't be)

I've been at CeBIT now two days with our class and yes, it was fun to see LFS there!
There was a Force-Dynamics too btw! But I don't think that was a simulator they were using.. More of a game (no idea which one though)..

Quote from Ball Bearing Turbo :

Well, to be fair I have heard of this happening once before but it was awhile ago. I was racing against someone on SO4 (cannot remember who TBH) and their car suddenly died and he had no idea why. There was a breif discussion about it (there was only 4-5 of us in the server IIRC) and that was it. I'd never heard of that again until now . I passed him as he was coasting to a stop, and me and the other fellow who was competitive asked what the problem was and all he said was "It just died." He also had plenty of gas etc. If my brain was on I would've saved the replay but back then I didn't really care much.

I've also managed to do that, I was pracitising for our "Thursday-race" and when I was going to vote for a new qualify, I just pressed Shift + Q or well, i tried to. Instead of voting, the car died. And it didn't start when pressing I. I should've saved the replay but then the qualify started seconds after so.. I was just thinking "how the hell did I do that" :P
Edit: Btw, I did have fuel..

Quote from mrodgers :

I use the FE2 (that's Gold, right?) inferno set.

Just wanted to say that FE2 is Green and FE3 is Gold..

Quote from DRFT KING :

Just playin round with my new rims (LMGT4 by Toni) smoke and a filter or 2 :

Click on image for higher res

haha King, you are king :P VERY nice pic!

Yes but I want to say, before he closes (if he wants to), couldn't that be solved if like, LFS checks with the server if the files are okay?
I've no idea how you change the handbrake value but it should be in some existing LFS-file?

Quote from Venus :

Jeez <sigh> I hate drifting and drifters. Never seen anything more pointless. And they call it racing? lol Its just point gathering. lol

As for the handbrake. If you use that for drifting, then u mustn't be very good. lol You use the main brakes for that and throttle. Just shove ur brake balance forward. lol Sheesh... might help if you actually think about what the car is doing when you want to 'drift' sigh...

Please, shut up or learn more before talking. I could understand that you don't like drifting, since everyone doesn't think or feel the same but then there's no need of posting in my thread? When it doesn't affect you at all?

And no, I'm not "that" bad.....

Quote from wark :

A little ironic, as that car has no rear brakes whatsoever.

I just posted that since it was funny.. :P

Quote from Breizh :

You don't need a handbrake to drift.. just plan your lines ahead more.

Yes I know, but when I don't choose the right line, it's good to have it.. I'm not 100% perfect :P

Quote from JamesK :

I thought real drifters only used the front brakes (?)

I don't know much about it but that is maybe, since they're drifting, there's very little force on one of the front wheels, the one that's closest to the apex and if you brake, you brake on every wheel and then it's quite easy to lock that front wheel. Might be because of that you thought so..

But as said, it's good to have the handbrake when drifting

Quote from wheel4hummer :

Well, it is unrealistic to be able to adjust your handbrake. Unless you assign it to an axis!

Is it realistic to sit by the computer and drive cars then? (and thinking that it's realistic? and helping the devs to make it even more realistic?) (Oh btw, then maybe being able to drive with keyboard &/ mouse should be removed too?) That was a quite stupid post from your side imo..

Even if I had a handbrake (a "real" handbrake, I mean like the frex one (and btw, I am getting a handbrake for my pc)) I would like to be able to change it.

You can do it IRL?

Hey!

Before in S1, you could change the pressure on the handbrake separate from the overall brakes. That was removed for some reason and I would like to have it like in S1 again!

Mostly since when I'm drifting, I'm using the handbrake quite much, but I don't want to have the pressure on the normal brakes superhigh so I can lock the rear wheels when pulling the handbrake..
(And please, nothing about LFS not being a driftingsimulator, this wouldn't make any difference for you who only race at all. And this could be helpful if you do this type of racing.(another example with a really odd ending)).

So please, change it back so I can change the pressure on the handbrake separate from the other brakes. And I do belive there's more (drifters probably) who would like this.

Quote from squidhead :

ok, this...thing...I had hopes for it..but I get 15 FPS while 640x480, and medium effects, the feedback from wheel is very loose, and the physics are way off...nfs:carbon was better in this aspect...
if it could be optimised, and the physics redone - it could be a better game
(running pentium at 3.0 Ghz, 1024 Ram, GF6600 GT)

When you get 450 points and reach champion level, you get the so called hardcore mode which changes the physics quite much..

Quote from tothegame.com :

New Hardcore Mode: Available in free-ride and multiplayer challenges, simulation mode will expand the experience for players looking for ultra-realistic driving for both cars and bikes. For the cars, telemetric data shows the actual physics modelled on real life parameters (independent grip for each tyre, weight transfer with G-meter, suspension, etc). Adapted to steering wheels and the standard controller, the hardcore mode shows drivers exactly where they succeed and where they need to improve, pushing their driving skills and the vehicles to the very limits

It's actually quite good (I've only driven a lil with it though)..

And can't you set the force feedback in options? Maybe pull it up a bit in windows too then..

Edit: Btw, what is your pc specs? Checked the minimum/recommended requirements?

Thanks!

Quote from Riders Motion :

Great movie, too bad Yellowcard aren't able to make longer songs

hehe, they actually did a longer song, I just cut it myself since I didn't want to make such a long movie.. :P

Thanks for the comments and thanks to Jack for the mirror on the HQ version.

Updated first post!

Hey!

Now I've made a new driftingmovie, been a while since I made Beautiful.. Hard to find a good song but now when I did, it was just to start making the movie :P

I've done a low and a high quality version, some of you don't have good connections so.. But imo, it's worth waiting for the high quality..

Low quality (720*576, 36 mb)
Stream: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OSepdTHWFdE
Download: http://www.bronks.se/Far_away! ... kamkors_editing-LR_LQ.rar (thanks bronks!)

High quality (same resolution, 144 mb)
Download: http://www.megaupload.com/se/?d=3RO9DZNY
Download: http://www.xtremesr.com/conten ... kamkors_editing_LR_HQ.rar (thanks Jack!)

Would be really nice if you can make mirrors, especially on the high quality..

Music: Yellowcard - Far Away

If someone wants a version with higher resolution, just say and I'll render a 1024*768 (if that's the right one to do(?) and upload it..

Btw, the name is beacuse the song is called "Far away" but that doesn't really suit a movie, imo, and then Jack said "Far away! from kamkors editing" and I thought it was funny

Anyway, hope you like it!

Nice movie Masken! Keep em coming!

haha it's great! The original BF2 movie is still better but it's fun with a LFS version :P

Original: Mine by Snoken Productions

And, sorry if this wasn't what you meant but anyway, if you want to really "stick" a camera to a car, say you set a camera on the hood and it stays there, maybe looking forward all the time.

Options -> View -> Custom -> change draw-something to body and then move around the x y z bars.

Quote from th84 :

No snow for me........ever.

I would be happy if there weren't any snow here either.. Or well, I would be now when I don't have a license and have to walk to the bus and from the bus.. But maybe I'll love it when I get my license and a rwd car? Well, lets see next year.. :P

Anyway, here's how it looks today.. We're having quite bad weather here now, the snow has been coming down in a 90 degree angle now for two days.. :P

The view from my window



The road


And again
