Nice post!

I think to learn writing you need to learn reading first and I wonder how many will read your post passed point 12...I think for many like me here, we come from all over the world and good plain English in writing is quite a challenge, often we learn the stuff we read and try to reproduce it...so I would say to learn to ''write english good'' you need to be careful what you read!

Personally I am French, I live in the Netherlands and use English the biggest part of the day, it can get quite confusing when I am on TS with French guys, typing English in server chat and my wife comes to ask me something in Dutch...I just forget what language I was thinking...But I always try my best!

LOL TVE, I don't want anything to do with this, I am closing my eyes on this because I still hope some day you'll come to your senses (I must be mad too ), but in the mid time remove my name in first post, it is not even spelled right!

Have fun!

The thing I don't get is why do you see so many ppls trying to convince LFSers to move to iRacing if it is so great there? personally I am not a consumer slave and I will never sponsor those commercial models what ever the content, that said it is no iRacing topic here and I am sorry to say but your post sounds like spam to me or you may have posted it in the wrong topic...

Congratulation to € J.Tormala for a great win last night!!

Quote from Zdenek CZE :GT2 and FE4 was good and hard combo. At the start were 32 racers = good. I had a few mistakes in the race, the result in finish could be better for me.

I saw your crash in the beginning of the race mate, I want to say thx to you for an exemplar rejoin which costed you many places, but you've shown a great racing mentality!

@O.Hardwick: Something very wrong happened last night, when you've crashed one of us (admins) came on the action in the last sec and saw what he thought to be a careless rejoin, regrettably he had a sprint race reflex and kicked you. A kick during the series should never have happened, sanctions are normally during or after the race, but I have watched the action this morning and there was no sanction to be given, it was a race accident! So PLZ accept our apology for this bad mistake on our part!

I have not checked all the details yet (logs and replay), but I have noticed a big difference between the !ss grid and the start grid, so it looks like many things went wrong for some of you, we will check the logs closely for this. Also I have seen many drivers with poor preparations, some came less than an hour before the race with no training and it was showing, plz try to do a minimum training before the race, this series has been made to give a chance to everyone to have a go at longer races in a semi pro ambiance, so plz take it serious and prepare your races!(specially on difficult combo's like last night...)

That said it was great to see so many of you showing up for this difficult event, I even had to make the server private in the beginning of the quali to avoid last minute (unprepared) racers and there was not enough room for everyone to quali anyway (41/47 when I closed it).
During quali I removed two drivers, plz don't take it in a bad way, it was just that you were in no way prepared for a start with 32 cars or a 40min race, Dailycious Series is every Thursdays and the servers are open for training long in advance, so use this time to prepare next time!

Personal note: Damn you all, like I said above I was expecting a quiet evening where I could race and score some good points...but it looked like you all thought lets make Fram work for it...in his admin chair! grrr you got me!

Results will be posted later today or early tomorrow...depending on work...to be continued!

It is a hard combo and not many came for trainings, so by the look of it this will be the chance for many to finish and score strong points!

And I am one of those who need to get back on the board..missed 5 races now...just have to make sure I avoid a looping in the chicane like in training, so expect me cruising tonight!

Quote from michele0676 :Since after 250k km in LFS i start to be a little bored about same cars and same tracks.
So i started to use other SIMs, NetKar Pro and rFactor.

Since trying new cars and new tracks is very exciting so until S3 will be released i think my LFS well be down on my PC.

My last race with LFS S2 was the 16h by Racing Minds.

Sad to ear that Michele , I particularly know you well and I know you were one of those motivated guys who used to give without counting to the community, and I know for a fact that you have been mainly demotivated by the lake of gratitude from many...and with getting too serious about the leagues which helped you forget about the fun of daily sprint races...

But as always, I will never give up on the idea of bringing you back to it! So expect me there...I miss the old days racing with you!

When you see player sent setup, press N (maybe twice) and look right in the connection list, you will see a green s, click on it and name it, that will add it to your list of setups...

Use names like this: Track name/name (e.g. SO4 Framaris)

Good luck!

Quote from EQ Worry :
I sort of like the 2nd option, but I can already see the problems connected with communicating this principle to the people. Basically you'd have to stop, watch the pitstop time, and leave only after you see that 10 seconds or so elapsed, not earlier.

I like the idea, but this would be looking for problems in my opinion, many will get penalties and that will make many unhappy racers.

Personally I think changing tires add a little more strategy in to the game, you have to chose how and when you exploit their best potential, pit times are more variable and it gives a chance to who has burned his tires prematurely... even if I agree full potential is often in the end of a 1h+ stint, but then you need much longer race and we're talking about endurance . Also it is much more realistic than pitting to say hello to the pit crew....that's why I think pit windows should be long enough if you use that system, like 10min after start and closing 10min before start...

Quote from Not Sure :Did you mean: "Are you a LFS lover?"

Not sure I am not English, I thought ''a live for speed lover'' and ''an LFS lover'', but I may be completely wrong on this one...

Quote from Tomba(FIN) :rly? :s

Don't be sarcastic, all we need here is a bit of love and positive influence.
You know ppls don't get motivated with negative feedback and sarcasms...

Personally, I love feedback in general (positive or negative), but I realise things a lot faster when ppls try to motivate me with a positive notes, even when most is negative...but the 100% negative attitude seems to kill all motivations... so I think it is important that everyone knows in the community (including devs organisers and admins) that there are lots of ppls around who think differently about LFS...LFS was great before S3 and remains great today, specially for all the new blood who has entered the scene the last couples of months...and don't forget that to get good servers you need motivated organisers and admins....we are one of the greatest community in sim racing, let's not go in to this spiral where we all are going to hate each others... at least not in this topic plz!

For me freedom means that I can think by my self and avoid all pollution from the outside, my feeling is let's be positive and a lot more things are going to happen!
And don't forget patches are not a right, it is normally to fix problems which should have been taken care of before release, of course they added content with it too, but mostly to say sorry for rushing the release...so I think expecting patches all the time is wrong, it gives too much room for dev to release shit products where you have to wait a year before it is up to the task...if a product is not right it should not be released, period!

Are you an LFS lover?

Been reading quite bit of the forum lately and most of it is looking so negative, strange things is that I know there are still many LFS lovers around the servers. So I wonder how many of them are still visiting this forum and how much being bored can be contagious?

My feeling is that being bored can have many reasons, but it is almost always a personal problem. That said ppls tend to share more when they are unhappy than happy and often they won’t face the real reasons behind it. Another important factor is that when the majority of ppls are bored and sharing it the happy ppls can find it hard to have fun and remain positive.

So here is a simple poll where the 3 first categories can be considered as LFS lovers with the first one being the unconditional hardcore lovers, where the 4th category could be considered as the source of ''contamination'' and the second and third could be considered as the ''contaminated''…Careful it is not a discussion about LFS development (enough of those topics to discuss that) so keep on topic and only share if you love or loved LFS, this topic is for that, just vote/share how you feel and be honest!

1-I love LFS!
2-Still love it but I am a bit bored!
3-I am bored but I can’t go away from it!
4-I am really bored!

My 2 cents:
I love LFS, for me it is a tool, I feel you get what you make from it and if I get bored sometimes it is because I am doing something wrong or I am in the wrong state of mind (that’s just a human disease ). I love the community side of it and all those funny chats we have on the servers. I love the fact that contrarily to other games the real personalities of ppls are coming out, it really feels almost like real. The day a sim will be equal to reality is not here yet and LFS still does the job good enough for me. I love the leagues and the preparation for them. I use to be a hardcore gamers for many years and on LFS I love the fact that I met so many nice ppls with whom I have build many good friendships. I love doing things for our team and I love to see happy racers. And the last will be shocking to many of you, but I love the DEVs for having thought about LFS and for having spent that much time to give me the cheapest game I ever had (relative to the time I have spent on it)!

Are you an LFS lover too?

Quote from cargame.nl :Hhmmm I don't get it to work.

SmoothInCarCamera=yes
LookUsingSignals=yes
LookAngle=60

7 and 8 are also 'normal'.

Binding the keys in profiler works well, but you need to unbind the button from the normal look function in LFS (set them to some buttons on the shifter or something), that said keep in mind that like EQ said it is more a patch or say an alternative, not an equal replacement...needs some getting used to due to the small delay, radar is also an alternatives, but it take lots of training to get the looking reflex right.

Good luck guys!

@Rock: you must be a good businessman, I never saw that many sponsor in an lfs team!

BTW if I may, I noticed a little error on your website on the sponsor page:

''Bridgestone icon''
Fanatec - Sponsoring wonderful goodies to Team Rock Racing.
Website: Bridgestone Nederland

I thought I give an early warning for next thursday's event since it is GT2/FE4 and we all know that this one will need more than the usual training, so start up your engine and make sure to do an appropriate number of laps before the race!

Good luck!

Quote from StableX :http://www.radicalsonline.com/ ... tomated-Gaming-Experience

I remember when it was news in MOE when a driver used it..... in iRacing it seems to be used a lot more than here, or at least more openly....

thoughts?

Hehe, I guess this give me an other reason to avoid iRacing...to me it is arcade and limit cheating...my 2 cents!
