I don't believe you can buy a LFS dvd on HK...

Buying a 2nd hand license can be risky, because you don't know the background of that person on LFS.
You see, a license wallks you all the way on your LFS life
It can even be banned from some servers, etc. etc...

Now, if it works, and if you can get updates: Yes.
1st of all is a PC game, it doesn't have "zone codes"
If you buy a license (even if is used) you're entitled to have updates.

I just don't get the part that you're willing to buy the license on disk from Japan, and not just from the LFS site directly...

Good game.

I gotta say, I watched it with my heart jumping most of the time .
The CZ team was allways a menace on the air. A very worthy opponent, a bit rough in my opinion.

They will most likely go on to the next stage.

We still have the home team in our way...

Phew - looks like a flame war didn't happen then

Quote from breadfan :Nobody needs a flame war happening here and my first post didn't intend to start it, but sh*t happens. Luckily it ended before it started

It didn't happen, gladly.

Is either because all lfs comunity suddenly became a real brotherhood, with everyone politely respecting other's opinions...

Then again it might be just because someone posted something alerting for flamimng...

Similar, but cheaper. It also has proper stereoscopic screens and head-tracking.

Quote from Stang70Fastback :Holy crap. I just realized how awesome that would be with a Track IR setup. Someone has got to try that and see how well it works....

You don't need a Track IR.

The Z800 have an integrated head tracking system, and is very smooth and precise.

When using the cockpit view, it really feels you're inside the car, because you turn your head and really feels like you looking to the sides.
want total immersion? Here you go!

Hi all UK fellows!

I want to buy a used car (a Smart) and the best option for me is to import one - They are more expensive in my country.

I have searched the web for cars, and I found what I think is a good deal...
The car was advertised has being in Germany, but I have contacted the owner and he says he is now living in UK (London), and because the car has left side wheel, its hard to drive in UK. That's why he is selling it...

I would like to know if there is someone in London who can check the car for me, so I can close the deal.

Thanks!

Quote from Doorman :My first racer was Geoff Crammond GP2. My instincts told me that the cockpit view was the correct way to go but for the life of me I couldn't get round the track. I had to resort to the 'top of the drivers head' view just so I could see what's coming! Only then could I drive laps with any confidence. I tried the chase cam and immediately that didn't feel right. Mind you, F1 isn't the best game to cut your teeth on.

That's exactly my case...

I mainly race SS's and that's the reason why I use a custom view (near cockipt view) a little above the "eye" position, almost above the driver's helmet.
That's because of endless hours racing the Geoff Crammond's G.P., and after that Grand Prix 3...

I tried to use the default cockipt view, but the difference in perception -small, is truth- makes a huge difference in my (not brilliant) performance.

I just want to be able to use my dear old view, that I'm comfortable with, in servers and leagues...

Quote from Gil07 :The "Why? " was directed at eRaptor

Maybe use that flipcams addon that allows you to have 5 custom views? Make one to be the look-over-shoulder view and you're done!

My "you gotta be kidding" was directed to the post topic, not to Doorman's post...

errr... yeah!

Ahhh... right...

Quote from JTbo :If we look big amount of those that use cockpit view, it seems that they tend to have more mature way of racing, but of course as always there are exceptions.

And that's a fact! Corroborated by...

Honestly, you couldn't be more full of it!

Quote from fujiwara :I wonder how life was before the ability to know who was driving with what cam...and i'm not talking just about follow camera, there's plenty on custom cams and wheels only cam.

Until a few months nobody knew nothing, just the usual polls would tell more about the users camera, but now it seems fine to label people.

Well, there's still some reasonable comments...

- fujiwara, things were just too quiet before this, we gotta spice life!
REALISM - Do not confuse things [forced cockpit runoff]

-> First of all, I just want to make clear that I'm for the realism in LFS, it is a simulator, and not an arcadish game with pretty shinning licensed cars, and a crappy feeling...

-I'm for the improvements in the phisics, no matter if it makes it harder to drive.

-I'm for the new clutch "system". That makes LFS more realistic, even if some have to adapt the driving style to save the clutch for a long race.

-I'm for other improvements like oil and water heating, mechanical failures, etc. etc...

Now, please do not confuse things!
An option to force drivers to use a designated view, is not a way to make LFS more realistic!

Servers and Leagues using this, are just pseudo-ellitists - There are probably drivers using the forced cockpit view and driving with keyboard or mouse... how realistic is that?!

I do not even use chase view, I use a "near cockpit view" -I explain- a costumised view from inside the car, but it goes out of range from the default cockpit view, and is more comfortable to drive with, shows the two mirrors, and is still a cockpit view. I cannot compete in servers or leagues with forced cockpit view because of that?

Do not get confused with improvements trough realism and discriminatory options that will only be negative to the LFS comunity.
