A review of Live for Speed in the Vive!

It's in German. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PE5sUaQgRUM&feature=youtu.be

Very funny to see what can be done !!
Impressive

ah ok, you are most probably right

Quote from R3DMAN :

10 cars.. where did you read that?

Now that you say this ... I probably mix with the Dream pack 1 content ... Seems it is 7 cars (each time less than the previous ... cheaper than Dream pack 2 ? ) for sure.
Seems :
Lotus 25 1963
Lotus 72D
McLaren 650 GT3
Mercedes AMG GT3
Abarth 500 Assetto Corsa
Ford Escort MK1
Lamborghini Gallardo LP 570-4 Superleggera

to be noted that on a screenshot promotting the famous R8, we can see a C7 doing the pace car (I may be wrong, but it seems), and the car next to it on the right is not looking like an R8, more a Porsche imo ... Could be a surprise .
Add this to the Audi TT Race car they are integrating ...

Quote from anttt69 :

Is AC a worthy successor to LFS or are they still struggling with frames & bugs.
Is it worth a purchase?.

I do not see it as a successor, but even with its flaws, it is very very good sim in my opinion. Awsome graphics and very good feelings for most of the cars.
To be tested deeply for all simracing fans

If I read correctly, seems that the dream pack 3 will be available en of this week or next week, including :
Brands Hatch track (laserscanned)
10 cars

some are visible in the video ... some remain unknown
No price it seems up to now ...

Wow !!! so much better !!!
This is lovely, congratulations !

Great news overall . Hope it will bring you some more users using VR stuffs and visibility for LFS !

Seeing how long we (old people) played and enjoyed Blackwood with the GTi, GT and Turbo (in the time ...) ... nothing is surprising me

downloading !!!

edit : 1 hour left ... Grrrr

f*cking barbarians ... shame on those bastards ...
They claim to do a war ... they are killing civilians by surprise ... wow !! Hell is maybe a too peaceful place for them.
My deepest condolences to families and friends of those poor people cowardly assassinated. Sad times ...

For those who had not seen it already, there is a snapshot of the R8 Plus that will come for free being driven on Brands Hatch (most probably)

hopefully the to-be-included model is not the famous 4cyl diesel

The Barcelona tracks are quite nice.
Tires squealing is quite strange ... but maybe I did not drive AC for some times up to tonight ... so I may not be objective ...
I spent some quick moments on the new cars, and they are quite pleasant to drive(even if the RUF RWD is for Pallukka type of player, normal people : prevent yourself from being ridiculous, and take the AWD model ), especially the Countach wich gives a nice feedback at first sight.

NB1 : I was quite surprised to see the shift LEDs of my g27 to follow the high RPM ... my daughters are going to appreciate

NB2 : I do not recognize Magione ! Looks very different now.

NB3 : I have bought 16Go more of RAM (total 20), so that has an impact, but loading time seems very acceptable

Some more news on the Dream pack 2 on facebook.

one week ...

Quote from DomesticPickle :

An inline 6 would be neat

LX6 is already there for you

I bring some modification to my wish list :

Quote from Flotch :

Currently, I would vote for these :

*Kind of modern super car class 600hp : (examples)
- FZ5 turbo : Like a Porsche 997 GT2 RS, 3.6L flat6 turbo peak power at 6500, 1.4ton (rwd or awd)
- Ferrari 458 Like : rwd, 4.5L V8 peak power at 9000rpm, 1.4ton
- Lamborghini Huracan Like : kind of awd, 5.2L V10 peak power at 8000rpm, slightly heavier
- Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 with a 6.2L V8 supercharged peak power at 6000rpm (rwd), 1.5ton
- Dodge Viper : a mighty 8.4L V10 with the kind of specs as the vette

*Same as above in a GTR class (quicker slower than the one we already have): slightly heavier, slighlty more power, less downforce, ABS => GT3 class


*Adding one challenger to the LX4 : either a light weight FWD/AWD or a RWD with a bi-rotor engine

*DP1

* a racing truck : (example) 12.8L V8 Diesel engine, 1160hp, 5500Kg. Probably as quick as an LX6 in hotlap

* kind of Audi R18 e-tron quattro : LMP1 with Diesel engine + electric system for the front wheels

This makes 10 a correct number of cars ... I would have proposed too an open diff RWD to make a friend for the UF1 ... I like the idea of the old beetle proposed above


then ...

About the rally pack
- buggy (7.0L V8 - 350hp)
- a modern turbo AWD beast (600hp)
- anyone has heard about group B specs for rally ? => there are plenty of nice examples to make crazy nice specs for cars in LFS

I was in the mood to save people from downloading unnecessary KB
But you are right, it is maybe more pain in the ass with multiple files : I do the clean up

I have spent some times on the FZ5 and propose a '0.3' version for it.
I had fun with the big GTR too, and found some quite good compromises in handling for each of them ... at least to my taste for a "hard track" setup . I kept them in R3 like the original setup.
Driving_setups_0.3.zip containing those 4 setups is attached in the original post.

...so he can complete a track we plan to include as S3 content...

95% done so ...
screenshots FTW
[/off Topic Mode]

Yep, always good to know there are progress on-going

dream pack 2 next car revealed :
https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10204935938472166&set=a.1238838305045.34354.1651916137&type=1
The other Lamborghini (1st is Countach) will be the huracan GT3.
there is a comment from Marco Massarutto :
"McLaren 650 GT3 and Gallardo GT3 currently in early stage of development"

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Mythical_Man-Month

Note that Scawen already mentionned that Eric is working on S3 "intial tracks", and who knows how advanced are the already 2 (do not know if Rockingham is included or not) tracks from wich Scawen talked about some monthes ago.
And let's suppose the goal is a sequence :
- sort out S3
- tire physics
- provide the 'editor' (track, car ... who knows) ... allowing modders to show their talent

=> more artists is not necessarily the best idea (long debates about this included in the forums )
