you mean some kind of fixed camera that catches the whole field passing by instead of sticking to a fight or a specific car.

V.0.1 RULEZ!!!!!!!!!!!!

the camera-edit tool looks awsome! that looks exactly how a comfortable tool should work. (not with xyz and copy past numbers and stuff)



as usual: "gut ding braucht weile!" bzw. warten hat sich hier wohl gelohnt. (sorry don't know the correct phrases in english)

Quote from Leifde :I never knew we had unmovable tyres in the autocross editor.

/me goes to look.

EDIT: You can't place them at the skidpad but they're on the list at Kyoto. I guess its just a bit of testing code Scawen forgot to take out.

... or to finish

Quote from Soeren Scharf :
It is of course an interesting possibility for addon developers. And for my LfS TV director tool I would need to add some output too (later), but atm I am still not sure about the way to go. If there is no other simple possibilty (maybe Scawen would implement an API), then I would need to use this solution too.

:woohoo:

Quote from thisnameistaken :Ladies and gents, we finally have NO2 advocated by an oval racer. Some like to drive around corners, others like to only turn left occasionally and at full throttle, but finally we've found someone who would prefer to drive only in a straight line!


i don't know what you are trying to say. yes i am most of the time on the oval BUT i also like driving every other kind of racing lfs offers, drag racing is part of it. just because i am most of the time on the oval it does not mean i am ONLY on the oval. what about you, ever tried out banger, rallyX, mrt/rally, circuit, oval, slalom, stuntcar, drag, bullringing, CLC, Cruising? and i don't want to start that discussion again why oval is the most interesting part of lfs for me... anyway...

i a gree with the one who said for proper drag racing we would need a proper dragster, funnycar, topfuel what ever. but you forget about public drag. lot of dragtracks offers public days where everyone can bring his ride and lots of those cars use either injection, fuel mix or other kind of tuning.

i agree with the fact that it is not necessary for leagues racing allthough we had IRL! some kind of turbobox in the champ car series and in F1 giving the driver for a certain amount of time the possibility to crank out more HP.

and on top of that, ever heard of fuel mix?

again and again, get out of your box...

i think you can have as much drivers as you want in the game with one license, allthough the overall stats are counted together on lfs world. so if everyone wants his own stats, you need different licenses...


btw. shame on those who flame this guy just because of their incompetence!

i don't get it? why shouldn't nos appear in LFS? if the server admins can restrict the use of it, WHY NOT? i mean the dragstrip e.g. is almost dead in lfs. having NOS could make it much more interesting. knowing when to hit it and when not.

be open minded people and come out of your box...

NOS in a circuit league, not a good idea
NOS on drag strip. HELL YES!
Tires NOCOL, UNMOV

on several tracks you can put int he autoX editor Tyres. i don't see any difference between the normal tires and the NOCOL or UNMOV tires at least on KY oval. shouldn't they NOTMOVE or NOT FALL when i hit them with the car?

as long as you can go over 250km/h with a bent front wing or rear wing, the physics is the top issue...

if it comes to controllers, we are no way near reality. the padels don't feel like in a real car, the wheel is too small comared to a real car. gear shifting is still a joke (unless you have some boutique parts...)


i don't think realism is that important in online gaming. most important thing is, to have fun no matter if the one game lacks of realism in damage and the other lacks on tyre simulation.

greatest experience with online gameing is the interaction with other people and not with a stupid or predictable AI.

BUT if you can do a donut in a front wheel drive, then it's a NO GO

Can't do the Admins some sort of Driver number below the Avatar and a field in the driver profile. and a automated generated list?

we all have to make our minds clear, that these simulators are games. you'll never be able to simulate 100% real life. it's like if you say something like: "i have to go to jail because i draw that card, THAT IS NOT REALISTIC" when playing Monopoly. it is a ****ing game *g*

so we have to live with the issues and bugs as they are given. if you are able to bumpdraft in one game and not in real live, then GO and BUMP your ASS OFF. i don't think anyone who is able to drive the bf1 in lfs is able to do at least 250m in real life with this car. so if you say: this game or that game is more realistic i think this is like: yeah LFS is 0.451% realism compared to real life and rFactor is like 0.450% realism compared to real life. it's virtual.

so even if you have the perfect simulation. it is still nothing more then a simulation. you can't simulate real life (until the holodeck from startrek is reality and the anti-harm mode is off and even then...)

so i think every gamedeveloper should focus on making the game the most fun and thrill as possible. i mean what would this game be if you really get hurt when crashing, when you really have to pay for damaged car parts and so on and so on....

games are games (even though some are more realistic) but it's still a game. no-one wants a simulation that barely anyone is able to drive (like it would be for lots of people who never drove a real car because of their age)

even if you have a tripplehead display with 3d glasses and clutch, or even a gforce-seat. it is still a game. (i know there is some incredible good force seats, but who has the money for something like that).

i mean "game" not as a bad thing. football is also a game (and they make lots of money there *g*)

even if you say: "i am the best lfs / rfactor driver in the world" you might have the best opportunities in real life racing such as good eye-hand coordination, good memorization of tracks, patience, passion, patience and more patience. but it is two shoes to drive in a save seat in your warm home or with 280km/h 50cm behind another car or with 180 through a wood where you do not even know whats coming after the next turn unless your copilot is telling you something like "3rd, left 90 over jump, outside"

i know lots of drivers use computer games to learn tracks, practice eye-hand coordination (Villneuve, Ernhard Jr., Klien,...)

ok... what did i want to say? ah it's too early now

Quote from JTbo :That is just one way to make game moddable, it don't need to be such chaos, all it takes is bit of planning and designing.

Many thinks that automatically moddable game means that there is lot of searching needed to find correct version and weird mismatch errors are everyday trouble, but it does not have to be so, there are countless methods how this can be made to work better than any other game has ever got it done before.

exactly (however i don't think car-mods are usefull at the moment because of the unfinished damage and aero-model) however some people have lots of time to do these kind of stuff twice or more times

i still don't have an rFactor license and just played the demo (allthough i am lately getting interested in the several nascar mods) i think drifting is possible in rF

tracks are not licensed. the use of the names from the tracks is licensed or do you think rFactor moders buy track licenses?

Quote from MAGGOT :Scawen said that AI will be addressed before S2 Beta. Hopefully that means more AI cars as well.

does that mean we can send an ai driver to spectate as admins? this could make a pretty good pacecar for flying start then...
