Hey... turn right!!!! NO... RIGHT!!! WTF.. NOT LEFT.... RIIIIIGHT!!!!!

Quote from richy :

quick bit from me...

What happens if a game developer creates a game that equals LFS on physics but on a DX-9 or higher graphics engine? GTR2 was pretty close.

End of LFS? Possibly.

Don't let NFS get physics and make you all eat your hats.

NFS has overkill effects and barely uses a true physics model!

Dont compare LFS to NFS please.. its annoying to hear the vast amounts of people who do!

LFS is an online racing simulator.

NFS is some arcadish racing game targeted at those who can't handle realism too well!

And ... because of the community and how lfs is evolving according to the community in wich LFS exists, there is no racing sim out there that can kill LFS...

LFS simply grows stronger over time.. period!

Uhhhhhhh...


no!


The best shadows to have in any game are the textureless DirectX 'Projector' shadows!

But LFS doesn't implement it (yet...)!

I have nothing to do that country, but I clicked the LiveForSpeed.no banner just to see what the .no version looked like...


and ...
weellll:


Here is what I saw:

Quote from wark :

No harm intended but...:

You technichally channot sphell...

I have a 12.5 grade average in spelling...

.... but when it comes to typing.... damn!

one thing that most (oval haters) people keep forgetting about ovals....

Dont underestimate the line! Ill bet 78% off the community will do just that!

Update pls..

FULLY FUNCTIONAL OPEN SOURCE (free) MOVIE EDITING SUITE FOR PROFFESSIONALLS!!!!

It's called jashaka, and it isn't for the light hearted!

I would suggest reading every readme/tutorial/pdf file you can get, because while it is damned powerfull, it has the same load apple's Final Sut Studio has.. Or Pinnacles old 'Liquid Studio' on the other hand!

If you dont pay attention you will get nowhere with it. If you actually read the manuals you will find it magnificant!

Download it here: http://www.jahshaka.org/ ... and make better LFS movies!

Ohhh,,,,

Quote from MIDWINTER :

atleast pick good tracks and cars to add, ovals are for people who cant drive or americans because they dont know the defenition on 'corner' propperly......let alone ever hearsd of a chicane, and nascars.......what other track could you use them on? atleast add cars to the game that have more than 1 use on 1 track.... i think that the basics of this idea are good but the car choice just wouldn't be fair, especialy to true racers who go round things called 'hairpins' or chiccanes i dont see a nascar getting around aston somehow.............

-1000......its not a suggestion or sensible update that 50% or more of lfs racers would enjoy....

If you put it that way, then circuits are for people who cant drive oval 0.0!

Hmm.. aliens gave me my name!

Theres a Fuji in GT4? Never knew that. (Gran Tourismo aint realistic enough for me)


And dont flame me for ******* sakes!

Quote from scania :

I think it should be "Kart"

How about Oval Kart & Off Road Kart?

That was the idia of the joke ....

*cries... you spoiled my joke .......


Oval Carts... ahhhhh.. Imagine what team FM would do with those

Quote from lizardfolk :

Also not to mention that Brazil has it's own popular stock car series and quite a few latin american and canadians watch it too

Brazilian Stock Cars.. I gotta check out those chassis.. must be cool! (note to only the ignorant europeans: stock cars come in many forms, to the rest of ya euros, rockon to these things)

Carts:

Go Cart (lawn mower engine or cheep motorcycle engine)

Race Cart (250 - 400 cc)

Super Cart (dead)

INDY CAR(T)! ??????????

Quote from MiniRam :

Here's just a thought.... What if LFS made a huge tournament style race. They could have qualifying sessions and then match the drivers up with people with the same speed. Then fastest 10-15 or so drivers will be put in a A main. Then slightly slower people get B main. Then slower driver then the B main people get C main and so on. It is a lot of work and sorting the drivers PB. But that would be a heck of a lot of fun.

Its easy, all you have to do is start your own league and manage it with your own point system ... Server scripts exist for many wonderfull reasons! (no offense)

Quote from Venus :

tell u this... if they do it at all... they better give it decent lights on the cars... not those crappy NFS type lights that only show just in frnt of the car... should be like real lights, with long high beam that shows up the fathest u can see like normal car lights... or better.

V

AKA "Projection"... "atmosphereics" , "bug soup"

But as long as they have lights, regardless of how they are implememted, should look good. Provided the lighting and lights are modern!

Wait for S3! +100000000000000000000000000000000000000

Quote from KeiichiRX7 :

Figured i would Post my Support on this topic, with a Nice +1.

Also figured i would post a link to the specifications of the classes at my local track. http://www.columbusspeedway.com/asp/2007/Default.asp

There's really no reason a Stock car cannot be raced on a road course, provided it is not built with an Assymetrical chassis.

Only a couple of different setup options would be needed, and not even neccisarily NEEDED, just helpful. Corner by Corner tire compoud settings and toe. MAYBE stagger (set this to 0 for road courses)

A few different types of Oval would make these cars and others shine. Contrary to the common belief not all ovals are huge like the Kyoto Ring. And many of the more wel known courses also offer a roadcourse configuration.

Educate yourself before you say youre opposed to something. And don't post negatively unless it would actually cause harm. Your choice not to use something doesn't make it a bad idea, just of no benefit to you personally.

As for ovals being for those who can't drive... you obviously don't know what youre talking about. Juan Pablo Montoya didn't get into Formula 1 without being a good driver (although he might have seemed that way compared to the people outshining him). He's finding Nextel Cup quite a challenge.

Hey Keiichi, You rock! +50,000 kudos for you! As usual, someone with a japanese kicks butt

Quote from 510N3D :

Well, biggest problem in europe or at least in germany is that there is no TV Channel except for payTV that is broadcasting nascar-, indy-, dirt-, mud-, whatever- racing. I think that the main reason for this circumstance is that there are too many of these people which are responsible for the program think the same way as you have just mentioned. I just dont get it and i cant imagine that, if broadcasted it wouldn't be watched at all. Thats absurd from my pov because i think most of the people that would watch european motorsports would also consider watching americans wouldn't they?

What i also do not understand is, and i did said that many times before in simular threads is why some of the people have got such a irrepressibly urge to spread their trash around here, most of them without any knowledge about it and start bashing around while they would have had the possibility to ignore the content just like they ignored the constructive opinions regarding this topic.

Well..whatever.

Tee heee

Quote from fragile_dog :

I would say its the other way round. Most americans won't consider another form of Racing, since nascar seems to be the only really popular series. Whilst in europe loads of people tune in to watch F1, Rally, Touring cars etc. Seems to be more different forms of racing that are popular in europe, then in the states.

Now I'm not saying it wouldn't be fun to drive on a proper oval with a proper stock car, but to me it is pretty boring to watch, BTCC is alot more fun, same close racing but just better to watch, and some of the drivers are nutters. Im just saying don't call europeans close minded. Oh and UK has drag as well....

3rd person to say "americans only watch Nascar"!

What about the Cart (Indy) series? Damned popular you know. And america is equally big in drag racing as anyone else! (NHRA Being the biggest)

And YES, america does watch F1, if they aren't watching Indy!

I prefer F1 over Indy though.

Oval is 100X more complicated than you think! It is just as hard as any track, but there is no point explaining it to you. Ignorance is what gets your cat killed, curiosity will give your cat a world record!!

Quote from JTbo :

I'm really against this upgrade-upgrade-upgrade ideology that today's programmers are feeding. It has to be stopped, consuming is bad thing, so is getting new computer every 3 years to be able to do even some basic web browsing.

I think LFS has been great there that you don't need to upgrade every time when new version comes out.

It is really sad to see how people think it is normal and acceptable to need to upgrade for all new versions of software.

But we are consumers!

Quote from Hankstar :

Hell, my crap-arse ol' PC can't even generate more than 24fps

Vote [1] Keep LFS Lo-Fi !!1

Is that with one car on track, or 45 ?

Quote from Forbin :

I have to say, compared to the FO8, the LX6 is quite tame. I think the LX8 would be a blast.

No harm intended but...:

You technichally cannot compare FO8 to LX6...
