Quote from Eldanor :

Take a look at Flight Sim addon prices, you would be surprised. I take LFS as a hobby more than a game, so I don't mind spending $30 or $40 per year in quality content, as I have done with other hobbies.

Flight Sim is more Offline than online, here we are talking about a full online expirience.

Let me put it this way, LFS S3 with real life tracks in the game and not as addons for the price of €50, but not an LFS S3 with a downloadable real life track for €15. This would completely ruin online expirience. As example : "That looks a good server to me, oh no, I must give away another €5 before I can play it."

This would ruin LFS even more than open modding idea. I'm fully against it.

Sounds pretty stupid to pay 20 € for one track if the whole game costs 35 €. Real life tracks ? Sure. Pay for it ? No

Quote from Krammeh :

New setups stops the whole passenger issue.

Take a look down the bottom, there are a few options that you can turn to "yes", maybe that will bring a few more servers up.

God, the server with the new map was hell yesterday, great map, but people were only fighting.

Anyways, this is how I think about the cruise servers.

I race, a lot, especially on the CTRA, Redline Racing and sometime on the Conedodgers servers. When I don't feel like concentrating too much but still want a good race, I go to the CTRA Bump n Jump ( I think that's the name ) but when I just want to enjoy LFS handling and listen to music at the same time, I go to a cruise server. Yeah, there are some more cruise servers around, but I can't really say I need to search for a good race, because I always know where to find one.

Man!!... your Internet connection stinks... you must move to Norway.. Belgium must be a bad country to live in

For internet the country sucks indeed

Stable line, 10MB/s but when I download 12 gig a month, I get warped onto 64kb/s. And we pay 40 euro's for that.

Offcourse you can buy packs of 1 gig for 1 Euro

Another thing, wouldn't this ruin the LFSW expirience ? I mean, for every single car there needs to be a new line added to show the hotlaps en PB's online, I don't want to scroll for 2 days to find my new PB in my car on a specific track.

Quote from bluejudas :

That is why all mods must be certified by a small "mod-certification group". And all mods !must! be released as part of LFS, maybe downloadable from lfsworld or directly in the game. But as you say, for offline play people can run non certified mods..

And then I have to pay more for my internet, it was hell with rFactor and it will be hell if it happens to LFS.

Seriously, I can only download 12gb's a month, I don't want it to waste away because everytime I join a server a new carset must be downloaded.

Oh god, I have 28 procent

That's when you get when starting at the back

When driving some minutes ago I noticed how plain those things look that connects the body to the wheels. Is there any texturefile to edit this texture to something else ? Since on the newest F1's they are made of Carbon.

Just noticed this is the wrong section, can someone move this ?

Here is my laters and fifth skin. A fictional Denso RB4

Quote from 1303s_vortech :

I don't think the port is used in shortcut anymore.

edit: works fine without port number here.

Still doesn't work, it doesn't show up ingame and when I type in /insim 29999 it says TCP Bind Failer, Insim not initialised.

Fixed it.

Buyme s1 lic and play with you all the day

Did that guy made 1 post without trying to get people to buy a license for him ?

I wanted a simple skin for the MRT5 but looking decent enough to race in offcourse, so I came up with this

Next up : RB4 and a new helmet skin.

'cmon people! Have mercy on a poor n00b LFS'er...
I'm 2.4 seconds from the WR and can't push this thing any faster

I drive 1:24:190,

Actually, altough it may seem that you have the same lines as him, he can be driving very differently, keep practicing is all I can say.

Quote from Zachary Zoomy :

that is a very good skin.

Thanks

Here is the side pic, it's a bit empty and the logo's are a bit dark.

Quote from Highsider9 :

How exactly does a T1 Crash look like there?

That and imagine a bunch of noobs trying to countersteer, urgh, the mess.

Quote from obsolum :

Yeah, where you from? Flemish or French?

Flemish, you ?

Quote from George Kuyumji :

If I would choose one track for LFS, it would be SPA.

But the Nordschleife would be second in my book, those who say you cant have close Racing at the Ring must have never played Grand Prix Legends, or simply lack the skill to do it.

Probably some lack the skill, seriously, I'm still wondering how that someone can even crash on the straight in Blackwood, and it still happens, I don't want to see those drivers race on the nordschleife

I seem to have a problem with this, this is my shortcut : "C:\Program Files (x86)\Live for Speed\LFS.exe" /insim=29999

but when the game starts, it says bind failed, why is that ?

I still find it incredible that a little country like Belgium has such a great track, Spa ftw

This is my second skin I made, and the first one for a GTR car, the previous was for my Formula XR I know there are some bugs, but the overall picture isn't bad I think.

Quote from obsolum :

Wow... those are pretty impressive stats for a beginner; nearly 50% podium finishes. On what server do you race mostly?

EDIT: nevermind, checked your stats. Mainly Redline Racing and CTRA1 apparently. Congrats, seems like you're quite talented then Or... maybe I'm just a hopeless case

Hehe thanks, I see you are from Belgium too

I already got a Redline Racing WR setup from one of the admins, I think that's a good sign

Spa Francorchamps with the BF1 should be a perfect combo

Quote from Takumi_lfs :

don't think so..

and i think that THAT is lag

I didn't had lag...

After discovering the Oval races today, I noticed something that is rather irritating. I always drive with nicknames visible above the cars, but with high speed corners like on the Ovals the nicknames starts to float 3-4 meters next to the car, it is confusing to see a nickname so close to your car in the mirror but don't knowing where the car is.

Can it be fixed that the names above cars keep hovering above the cars in all turns ?

I'm going to be positive again

How do you get Vista to use 900mb of memory :s, my installation of 64-bits only uses 450 mb on startup, and Vista automatically kills every unneeded proces when you are gaming. I'm using Vista for about 5 months now and I'm happy with it, works fast, looks good, no errors yet.

I only have 1 gig memory
