The business goes through your credit card company straight to LFS, so as long as your computer is free of nasty programs like keyloggers and worms, nothing bad can happen.

Can I play on official Y servers if I install the beta patch or once it's installed, I can only play with other beta testers?

Never liked rFactor and didn't like that car when I tried it, either.

Happy day of birth.

Weird mix of music, I know. Other than funk, I usually listen to death metal.

When i was 13 years old (6 years ago), i got connected to the internet via dsl.

This was the biggest mistake i've ever done. I've spent the next 5 years playing mmorpg's and posting on forums (have over 15k posts on one forum). I also started smoking when i was 13 and didn't really in to school much.

Last year, i stopped smoking (7.5 months ago, still strong ) and enlisted in the israeli defense force (5.5 months ago) as a digital comms technician in the navy, working with all the warships and other watercrafts, even with some aircrafts that are used by the navy.

I did manage to fix my life, but i'm still disappointed about my past. I'll have to finish my highschool degree during my military service and once my service ends in 2.5 years, immediatelly start getting a higher degree in a university.

I hate t9, i need to get a better phone. Took me like 10 minutes to type this message.

Wonder if i can connect my cousin's old wheel's pedals only without connecting his wheel. Could be cool to have a clutch pedal. :o

Welcome, mate.

You won't really ever enjoy lfs fully without at least a dfp or a momo.

Hope to see you online on s2 soon.

Wait, wait. Are you guys suggesting playing with your left foot on the brakes? :/

All over Israel.

Finally, a beautiful reply. You make a good point. The only question is 'how much development time?' if it's already implementable, why not?

Otherwise, this just got shot down and can be added to the list of shot down suggestions.

What's the point of breaking into an expensive car and breaking everything? Lol, probably failed to get the engine started.

Hey, i've been playing since 2004 and i still suck. ;p

Yeah, i understand. Nobody really knows whether it works the way i guessed or the way you guessed it.

Any way to get an official reply whether it's even possible to do in lfs? Otherwise we're just beating a dead horse.

This better be a hell of a simulator for that kind of money. It's going to be a huge failure.

The sim racing community is not nearly big enough to make any profit like they expect to make.

Part of my idea included not changing gameplay. I guess lfs was coded differently. The way i see a vehicle model in a game is just a shell for a person to look at, all the physics calculations stay exactly as they were for the original car.

Well, that's the way it would've been if i made lfs.

Just forget it.

This is a brilliant idea. There's no reason not to make this change. After all, we all just want to become better drivers; you need to have a hell of a convincing reason to not want to share your setup.

The thread got derailed to hell.

This thread was about giving the people to make the game more the way they like it. It's not going to waste anyone's time to apply such an option, it's not like i asked scawen to model me a car, i'll do that myself.

If you guys prefer to limit yourself because you're afraid of bad models (which i remind you, nobody forces you to download), then you can just forget about my suggestion.

Hey guys, i'm not new. I started lfs up again after getting my dfp on friday.

I'm horrible, i need help.

Anyhow i'm in the army now, i probably won't be home untill at least thursday.

That's because of the way the racing sim community takes "modding". I was only talking about the model of the vehicle (that is, a bunch of polygons glued together), but the racing sim community expects the vehicle to also be modded to change gameplay.

That's where the hl mod i was talking is different: all the gameplay-changing-values are only accessible to the one person who made the mod. On the other hand, everyone has access to change any visual setting as they please.

Alright, i'll call him now to finish the order. Thanks for the quick replies.

I guess he just doesn't know what he's talking about. All i'm looking for is a usb plug, right?

Interesting... Ordered a DFP from an online shop and then some dude called me and asked me if the ps3 version is ok and that the don't have a ps2 version.

What is he on about?

I was taking the idea from a half-life mod (The Specialists). The community consisted of many talented 3d artists so most of the models were much better than the default.

Another good thing about the half-life engine is that each model is just a model file that is loaded when you start the game. You won't be able to see the custom model, unless you have it. The only person that will be seeing the custom model is the person that uses the custom model. Of course good models can be shared online and used by whoever likes it.

Kind of hard to make sense, i'm posting from my phone and people around here won't stop speaking.

What's the difference between the two? Can i use the ps3 version on pc?
