his post number is growing at a geometric rate!
I think there is a possibility at least collision detection and longitudinal grip calcs are being optimized when Sirocco arrives... i THINK...

As you can see, it IS possible to run, but not to play.

EDIT: as someone commented, it looks like a turn based strategy LFS

Quote from 1303s_vortech :Better ask what's good with it?

I think they could use this thread to keeps us up to date about the convention and new updates/videos about the Sirocco??? nah.

Quote from Electric Eye :
Sorry for off topic, couldn't control myself.

I do think that PSP is able to run LFS. but correct me if im wrong:
Being that LFS s written in C (or C++ ), they could transfer the code over to XNA and run it on Xbox 360 am i rite?

Yeah, but "flying" for me atleast only happens in those adds on the grass and concrete barriers (i think thatsthe material), and not static metal guard rails.
But maybe thatsa good thing (the improvement. in the video. It felt more... safer? and DON CHECK "Live For Speed - Volkswagen Scirocco Gameplay". what a stupid guy)

Quote from Maelstrom :
If we get the hospital corridor track with it it could be

Infinite Layout possibilities! New Layout Objects! (Hospital Trashcan, Open Door, Stairs, Hospital Beds, Busy Doctors, Terminal Patiences, "Heart Chargers") - Of Course World Records would be relative to the amount of moovement on the hospital.. (more ppl hurt == more doctors working == less space to race)

Yeah great news indeed.
I think the devs will put a server side option for real life cars only maybe?

Does it reset when you do a specific command? like entering a specific menu? or is it random? Are you sure you are running the latest LFS version? Try to run LFS and check the temps on VGA and CPU, CPU usage maybe? could be a corrupted file, or maybe you screwed up the update (like, you were using Y then patched Y24, got an error maybe)

Try to reinstall/redownload LFS... check your memmory maybe? Did you installed the vista patches(Service packs)?

Quote from major_syphillis :you choose what you play, people should do whatever they want after payin $50 for an unfinished game

So you would expect to receive the source code of a game after pre-buying it? Excelent.

Imagine yourself fighting for the 1st. As you're getting near the opponent, you feel that your car is on the lim... no more. you just borke the front right suspension dude...

Or maybe...

Image playing in demo servers, only to see the festival of flying parts and scratches that will certanly happen on t1. The good side of it, it will be cool to watch...

Quote from Dac :i didnt say i dont want it. just that it "may" not be as good of a racing track as we would have thought. especially as there are few if any overtaking points. i can see very easily it turning into carnage as one driver spins off and bounces from barrier to barrier taking out others in the process. theres no run offs or gravel traps to stop the car doing this like there is at Aston etc.

on the plus side i can see it giving a good sense of speed and making for some pretty challenging and demanding hotlaps. also learning the circuit would be good for when people do actually make their pilgrimage to Germany i think it will also attract more people to the game.

all in all people have to be prepared that its more of a novelty track than anything else.

Actually i think that THATS why the ring is "different". it has its own feel, and thats why i think soo many people like it., it and the fact that it has more than 20km of track. I see NO reason to NOT make it in LFS at ALL, OTHER than i hardly see it happening thought.

I got RoR =D i know what you mean... 30fps? you must have a NASA CPU.. i get 12 max. well about the processing power, i think in lfs it may not be that heavy because RoR simulates flexible parts, air resistance, water physics, i mean, its almost a complete engine sandbox ready to anything. and think it can eb optimized further. Knowing scawen's desire for perfection i think he will fine tune everything if ite ocmes one day.

The one at the moment is a nice placeholder i think...
But maybe, when they implement a more complex damage model, the cars might have flexible chassis? =D (too much Rigs of Rods crashing sorry)

As Scawen once said, LFS aims to be as simple as possible and user friendly, so i would give this a +1
