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

i thought about a bush-series with the smaller XRT but i don't have the time to run more then one (maybe 2) leagues at the moment. and without the proper car it does not make sense to do a truckseries. (i know in other games there is that possibility of even all 3 main nascar leagues)
i have 3 possibilities:
1. everyone has to qualify again in the new format => will take the most time
2. only the new people have to qualify with the new system but are rowed behind the others for the sprint race => fairest to the overall championship
3. i take the first three laps from the already qualified => might not be the fairest because of fuel.
anyway everyone has to be on the server and on ventrillo for the whole qualifying because the sprint race will be held immediately after the qualifying. (we will do a regrid then to make sure pacecar is in front and all others are in the right order.
after the sprint race there will be a 5min. brake and re grid procedure. (i have to regrid because i need to switch the lap amount, the pacecar will also start in front of the grid, which is good)

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

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
watch this:

tracks are not licensed. the use of the names from the tracks is licensed or do you think rFactor moders buy track licenses?
yep numbers would be very fine
+1
+1
what do i need to have 3 monitors on one computer? 3 grafic cards?
does that mean we can send an ai driver to spectate as admins? this could make a pretty good pacecar for flying start then...
sorry mate, #09, #01 and #24 are already taken. so it's going to be #12
KYOTO 360 Lap Event SUNDAY 25th of FEBRUARY
KYOTO 360 Lap Event SUNDAY 25th of FEBRUARY
the last race of season 1 of the LFSCAR "360degree.tk cup" will be a 360 lap event in the middle of february. we will run it with as close as possible nascar rules and will contain the next seasons ruleset (without the new car)
everyone is invited to join that race (you also can team up with a teammate or buddy in one car). it is necessary to qualify, which will be held on raceday one hour before the race.
the race will be on a sunday 25th.
Qualifying 16.30 CET (1 outlap 2 fastlaps) + 11 lap sprint race with flying start (this is to make sure everyone understands the pacecar rules)
Race starts at 17.15 CET according to the result of the sprint race
At the start, the pacecar will start from the back and overtake everyone.
DON'T MOVE UNTIL YOU GET THE "ROLLING START" Msg.
Pacecar rules (you will get visual commands for that as well)
When pacecar comes out, no overtaking what so ever!!! (FULL COURSE YELLOW)
pacecar trys to catch the leader. NO overtaking of the pacecar! pacecar will tell you if you are allowed to overtake!
when all gaps are closed to single file, all cars which are not in the lead lap go to inner file (double file)
race will be restarted when you get the GREEN command after next time you pass start/finish line. the leading cars have to maintain the pacecar speed until the finish line. pacecar speed is about 120km/h. NO gaps or brakechecks behind the pacecar.
pit rules under pacecar:
first pits are open ONLY for crashed cars
when pacecar catchs the leader, pits are open to everyone
a pacecar phase will last for about 5 laps and will wait for file up everyone!
DO YOU HAVE THE GUTS FOR 360 FREAKING LAPS?
ARE YOU MAN ENOUGH TO STAND IT?
CHICKEN????

what is this all about? why do you guys start flaming on a person who did a lot for the LFS community and is a friendly gentle person? i don't get it.
it isn't funny, it isn't polite and it isn't intelligent at all. so stop making fun of other people without any reason ...

hmmm i am not quite sure about this because suspension does not cope that much with sideways-movement. so if you poke a car from the side, the only thing that can move that much are the tires. but i really don't know how much and if it is apropriate in lfs.
i don't think the suspensions job is to deal with sideway movement of a car. it probably is fixed in that direction

sorry soeren, for my impatience. but after some atemps contacting you i thought you were not interested in this project anymore.
sorry again mate
LOOKING FORWARD TO THIS GREAT TOOL!

i still hope there will be some action detection in the future. looks like the lfs-tv director is dead. so all my hopes are now lying on this tool :/

i know, this was kind of retorical question... but why in the world are people always saying life for speed. i don't get that... anyway
i think in that case you need that technique, or as mentioned as above the lfs-tv thingy allthough those without a licence won't see it i think.
