do not consider the week working days, it is so much reserved for "standard companies" working only from Monday afternoon to Friday morning Big grin

Final straight, latest weekend of August is coming !!!

this is simply because most of the people are interested only in driving a very fast car and see the top speed on a straight line Big grin
Doing a racing game featuring Dacia Sandero with 1.5dci and have the sportiest car a Laguna 1.9dci is not going to have plenty of people interested Big grin Big grin
Only the true simracers will know how pleasant it is to take an XF GTi or XR GT around a WestHill reverse configuration Big grin Thumbs up

Big grin 300km is already quite huge, with very different environments. (a note when there is the sequence with Palm trees at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ck_kWIiyKy0#t=16s the Porsche is looking awsome but the trees, road, ... let's say the general environment is not looking that good ... that is a subjective point of view)

I guess it is not simulation related, but anyway it looks like very sweet !

The cars are beautiful Thumbs up

I read 3000km of roads ? wow ... that is some job to do !!

When you get there : https://www.lfs.net/shop/licenseselect
aren't you able to buy specifically a licence ? (in my case everything is paid, so I do not know for you Wink )

Quote from BaronX :Hey, so I bought S1 already, would it be possible to buy S3 for 24$? I'm torn, I don't want to waste the 12$ I already spent on S1 - anyone know?

yes, if you pay 24£ you will be able to buy S2 and S3 as you are an S1 owner.

I'm still interested because it is brilliant, thanks to people involved in doing great things, and not giving up !
So, thank you Wink Thumbs up
And as you suggest, do not hesitate to go onto some progress report thread existing, or create your own, to share whatever you feel interesting ^^

There is a big change in the next Kunos product : AC was not to get rain because it is too dangerous to drive on it and could make you loose a race suddenly, while in ACC they can implement it because it is nice and cool !!!
Quote from Scawen :... But what's the point in that? So I could wear a fancy watch or clothes with logos on them so other people would be impressed? ...

The point would be to buy a bike with an hidden engine in the wheels that make you go quicker with less effort compared to your competitors Rofl

Of course it would be awsome, but doing trailers and other media stuffs are time consumming ... so it is more difficult for the few people doing LFS to do these ...

Forgive my ignorance, but simply deactivating shadows would not be sufficient if it is a something gpu/cpu consumming ? (assuming texture resolution is an option)

did not succeed aswell Frown . Even tried with internet exlorer, ctrl+F5 ...

This is great how the shadows are set everywhere Thumbs up ... looks like the position of sun all around the day is to come in the future Smile

Thank you for this link !!!

Brilliant guys !! Sounds there has been lots of works !!! It just looks so much better ... and Westhill is already wonderful ! Uh-hu

Indeed it is a good thing, you hopefully do not photshop the thing like so many other game companies do !
NB : hope the new track Eric was/is working on could be part of the screenshots Wink

Quote from Scawen :We look forward to showing you some screenshots in August.

no problem, we will still be there lurking around Tongue
Glad for you the things are going well with new ideas and challenges ! Freshing up some tracks sounds very promising !
Quote from mbutcher :...But that said, changing any of the other track layouts too drastically now might not be smart because they are considered 'classic' tracks to many people....

For me classics are meant to be changed : no problem with this Big grin
Let's imagine Fern Bay and Kyoto a bit more designed for some corners, it would not hurt !

Quote from Scawen :...
A couple of weeks after the release of this full version, we plan to show some images of the new track updates Eric has been working on using the new graphics system which supports specular lighting and a new shadow system.

We are in the timeframe ! let the speculation begins !!! Will we have some images of a new track (Ya right) or updated old tracks ? (I would feel painful for Eric if he had to update manually hundreds of objects on 'old' tracks ... not that I think he would have 'Westhilled' the 4 remaining tracks anyway) or if we can see some Blackwood updates (there some crazy straights not available directly in the open config mode) ...

The force is displayed in LFS as kN/m (kiloNewton per meter).
K is pounds per inch, no ?

I saw the Singapore flag Wink , far from France man !
And yes, I still run LFS time to time and now I felt ridiculous against the AI (I take slower cars than them, but anyway Big grin ) ... but it is still really a masterpiece in many ways Thumbs up . Enjoy LFS and the other sim available now ^^

I think ACC is to only provide GT3 cars, so not even GT2 ...
AC is great, but is clearly disturbing me aswell on many aspects ... This is why I am still and will remain focused on LFS : developers may not be very quick to provide plenty of things compared to some other game companies, but in the end you get something at a very high quality level, speaking about how are implemented all the features. And this is priceless (and even cheaper than other simulations)

Quote from MagicFr :Nice to see that LFS is still alive.
I plan to try it again this WE with VR and DD Wheel.
15 years of LFS right?... oO"

Yeah Big grin , nice to see you are still there !
