Quote from joeynuggetz :Are you running Vista? If so, make sure you have the very latest profiler version. I dont run Vista anymore cuz it sucks but when I did, it totally disregarded what I had set in the logitech profiler and only used the settings from the control panel. I have my profiler set up differently for different games. Not sure why people say not to use it.

I use Vista..and find the profiler werry good.

in Rfactor i use a diffrent profile since the steering isnt realy the same as LFS..
GTR2 has its own profile aswell. so i say as u..wy r people so afraid of the profiler? its good when u know how to use it.

and about setting up the wheel without profiler it has been explained...controlpanel etc.etc. that will work just as good as profiler..or even better since u dont need the profiler runnin in the background.

Quote from ghost racer :Am I the only one that finds it eye candy for how smooth it runs and everything is layed out.. I remember the first time I saw the preview S2 video! Then it blew me away once I could download it how smooth it still played one my pc.

dont get me wrong..the game is all that it needs to be..just details..waving of the flags..pit crew working...auto blackflag when hard hit...and so on..that is what i meanwith eyecandy.

the game is awsome online..im pleased with it all..

well..i got ingured in work..my back got dislokated disks..so when i was home and trying to heal myself i found LFS on internet when i was googling for a cargame..

since LFS that time was the only game i could drive with a mouse thats what i stuck to..

the first 2 months i was lying in a hackysack ..playing lfs 24/7 even got in a team
then my favorit was oval racing since it was easyier with mouse..i even went thru some 300 lappers...
LFS got me thru the hardest time in my life..

sry for bad spelling

now i use a modified playset,g25, and cant stay away from the game more than a few days..
LFS imo is the best Simracinggame there is..not eyecandy but more realistic.

thx to the devs/ Mike

WEll,with patches comes relearning.

as the big patch with the BF1..
that made me stop racing LFS for a few months..
i just couldn`t stand the physikchances they made that time..

but now i love it..i just needed a break from it so i colud get back from "75%" skilllevel..

i dont find the same problems as u with blackwood.

if its any comfort..go for a spin with Race07..that makes u like the surface in LFS

Quote from JTbo :Easy Mike, how your friend would drive real car on race circuit?

He would face same difficulties as now with LFS, so I would say it is more realistic = better, this way.

It is perhaps bit cruel, but reality often is

sure he would have problems..but if they can make a touringcar driveble to Alex Zanardi....
Or.....just a little box that says "Handicap shifting" in settings and u would get that nice bumpersticker on your skin aswell.

anyhow...if they make clutch heating less sensitive it might sort his problem..
since it is driveble with that cofiguration i mentioned..a slight adjustment of heating would be all that needs.
then even handicaped without G25 wheels could continue racing LFS.

Quote from JTbo :Hmpfh

looool...daaamn,carcontrol = nada

subject:I think we all agree that the clutch is wearing to fast.

as some mentioned..a few starts with mid rev makes the car nondriveable.
if they just turned it down slightly,that would improve for many drivers.i tried some cars..ss and saloons but have no problem driving them fully manual.but there are some people that cant.
ex: a friend of mine has a injury to his both feet,meaning he cant lift quick from the trottle.(no clutch)
we mapped a clutchkey to the steeringwheel so he could shift.
problem is that if u do this..the shifting still makes clutch overheat fast..he still cant lift from the trottle..
that was no problem before they took awat trottleblip etc.

if LFS is going to the "no n00bs can drive" sim..then we better try to make the cars handicap aproved (joke)

ex: alex zanardi..no legs..drives with no problems.

apologys for bad spelling..

The SCC Cup has got its own server runnin now : liveforspeed.se SCC Cup

the server runs a script that controlls intakerestriction to 20%.
that means that u cant exit pit with wrong settings.

under traningweeks all drivers have 20% restrictions..and on the event day they get chanced to the individual penaltys.


Update:
After 4 races the final standings split 3 drivers with 6 points.
could it be closer?

Swedish Close Combat (SCC Cup)

Are you the driver that never wins? Are you the driver that always wins?
In both cases the Swedish Close Combat Cup is meant for you. As the title says, SCC is supposed to let you experience close combat with all drivers, regardless of their skill. It doesn't matter if you're fast or slow, since we use a penalty system that punish fast drivers, this is the key to close racing.

League runs Mondaynights 8 pm CET

Quote from The Moose :..........i hope i will come across drivers such as Sparky Dave, Swiss Tony, Lord Blaster, Bravus, Viper(RUS) and all the others i enjoyed such close,clean racing with over these last three months. It's been a pleasure.


Hey...wtf..u didnt put me on your fanlist

but i miss it too...good clean racing is what LFS is about..and the names above is just a fraction of good racers out there...

i too have s*itloads of cr*p happening IRL..so i know that LFS is not on the "need to do list"...
lets just hope that STCC makes a comeback..or if not..u might see other servers taking the ideà s becky made..and use them in there own way.

peace out racers...

Quote from dropin_biking :The ability for grass to be chewed up would be nice (Eg. spinning on the grass and have the tire walls rip into the grass, and when u hamer the throtle to get back on the track have it rip divits into the grass) Also if you took a turn wide, and had the one side of the car hit the grass, show the packed spots that the wheels made on the grass. Those are the two things I would like to see in S3 in terms of off-track.
~Bryan~

well..u realy got my point..
just as u said..and make the grass "catch" the car,,make it roll over"if the angel was right" i dont mean that the car should flip over as soon as it touched the grass ...
Easy_Mike
S2 licensed
well since im not eng speaking i have some trouble finding the right words..

if you would go of the track in high speed,,and the cars lifts and hits the grass in an angel so high your tyers dont touch.'
lets say 45 deg..your car shouldnt seattle on the wheels it should flip over.

same thing if u go sideways and the car lift and hit in an angle,,,lets say 20 deg..u should realy get a freak crash.

as with the gtr cars on westhill..well..its superb..feels just realistic,same with the openwheelers.
but then there isnt any "jump" to get your car off the ground is there
maybe add some texture to the grass.like in Rfactor..its not smooth at all..the car realy jump around..
for ex..if there is 10 feet to the barrier..add some bumps to the last 5..then u would be able to save it if u wasnt going horrible wrong.

again..sry for bad spellingillepall
change grass physics
Easy_Mike

i want the grass physics to be chanced..make it more "sticky"

ive seen some replays of cars dropping the front in the grass and just slided away..insted the front of the car should realy "hook" in and make the car tumble forwards..

realistic? yea..i think so..since we dont have any rain in lfs yet..why is the grass so damn slippery?

it might just improve driving of some..if the grass was "sticky" instead of slippery ..then u would realy loose time if u ended up there..

well?
