you have to save the files at lfs\data\setups. once you done that, you can select them in the garage. make sure you don´t use old setups from before patch Y, or if you insist to do so, rename them! The new format requires the three-letter-abbreviations of the cars in the filenames.
every league has it´s own rules. and if you can´t deal with them, look for other leagues! if leagues would suddenly loose like 50% of their drivers because they use views like you, i guess they won´t come up with forced cockpit rules.
so if that´s a problem for you, why don´t you just go find a league that doesnt care which view you use? or even better, make your own league, have your own rules!
edit: and yeah, i´m pretty sure as well that there´s an old thread about FCV already...
you can unlock lfs 1000 times at 1000 different places - you just need to wait a week after each unlock (or of course you skip 1 week, and the next week you unlock lfs on 2 PCs). that´s what 3.3 says.
Yeah, thx to everyone, was pretty tough. unfortunately i got turned around in race2 lap3, tried to get off the race line, it just didn´t work out the way it should have, maybe it didn´t shift into reverse asap, cause i was still on the gas too much - pretty hectic at that moment with like 20cars approaching... but at least i got that final bump off the race line from mr. mooney himself - what an honour
Yeah we had that already ... almost. but this time you know about it already a week before it starts - and it´s the XRT
So these are the facts:
Track: Aston north reversed
Car: XRT
Laps: 30
Pit stop: mandatory
When: 30. December 2007, 20.00UTC/21.00CET
Where: (FM) Event Server!, maybe also (FM) Fun!
Qualification: 25 minutes (so we can start the race about 20.30UTC)
If more then 32 people sign in, we will split the grid 50/50, and after the qualification we´ll sort it, so that the quicker half is on the (FM) Event server!
If you want to join, just post here and i will put you on the list. All I need is the account name of anyone willing to join, so i can send out the password via lfsforum-PM. As usual, we reserve the right to reject any blueflag-ignorers, wreckers and similar annoying individuals. To get a field of decent racers, we´ll check the PBs of every racer before we add him to the list, so please do some practise laps online on any server, just to give us the opportunity to check your PB before we sign you in. as a pointer, i did a 2.21.something after 10 laps, so i´d say everything above 2.25 will be considered ... unexperienced or something, and might therefore be considered danger to the quick leading racers. Remember, you´re not supposed to try & survive as long as possible, but actually compete and have a nice RACE for 30 laps, nothing more, nothing less.
To make sure you receive the password in time, please sign in at least 1 hour before the qualification starts.
Remember, all PBs have been deleted by the developers lately.
christmas is near, and since it´s sunday, i guess hardly anyone will be out today buying gifts. so in order to keep you busy, FM will host a small event - not on the oval today
As the title already says, it´ll be 23 laps on aston north reverse with the XRG. Qualification will be 25 minutes, starting at 20.00utc/21.00cet, so race will start at about 20.30utc.
how to join? simple: first come, first serve. However, we reserve the right to keep certain mad-skills off the track.
server name is (FM) Event Server!
and in case there are more then 32 racers, we´ll split the grid, so half of the grid goes to the (FM) Fun! server. and IF that happens, we´ll sort the grid after quali, so that the faster guys will find themselfes on the Event server.
well, that should be it. so I hope to see you guys on track tonight & have some fun in that poop-machine
edit: just a little detail: one pitstop is mandatory!
oh man, why did you move this from general to off-topic? i wanna be where all the where´s-my-setup-i´ll-never-play-lfs-again-for-the-next-five-minutes-guys are too - and i want a gun! pleasepleaseplease
oh yeah btw, that thing with the missing race results positons i wrote about a few posts earlier - dunno if that´s test patch related or would have happened earlier too, just in case you´re only looking at the latest changes in the game. can´t be bothered about that "bug" anyway, never seen that happening online on any server
well, i gave x36 a quick task, went to single player, put 20 AIs in BF1 on the oval and let them race for 3 laps, all on one of my setups and (obviously) skins. pitstop mandatory. all fine, they pitted in lap 1, but braked/broke(?) too late and it seemed like every single one of them got a 30seconds penalty. fine, maybe they´d do better on their own set, but
the actual problem i want to report occured 2 laps later, when they finished the race:
noone ever won the race. the cars "finished", but the questionmarks in the race results list where the position should appear remained. i tried it 3 times, one time there was even a car without penalty, still only a question mark, no position.
upload of spr just failed, was too big (3MB)...
So i tried the same again with less cars, and this time there IS a winner... but still, "Laudi-AI2" finished 3rd with a 45s penalty, but it´s position never appears, the question mark remains on the results list, even after 45seconds. THIS replay was small enough to be uploaded - just in case it´s of any help.
