I just want to add that the CD being selled on live-for-speed.de isn't an official Live for Speed product, but an third-party "package". The devs have allowed me to produce such a package, but are not responsible for it. So if you have any questions concerning the CD, just drop me a PM or e-mail.
At the time of the S2 alpha release I had to decide whether to put an unfinished version on the CD or not. I decided to wait for the final S2 release and that's why no-one received a CD yet. I can assure you, that all the people who have pre-ordered will receive their CD right after the next big update, meaning that the major physic flaws are fixed.
The texture size should depend on the res of the original texture. The old S1 ones use smaller res textures than the new S2 ones. So I'd suggest to double the res for the S2 textures and use 4x textures for the S1 ones.
For example:
256x256 gras texture of S1 track -> 1024x1024 high-res
512x512 gras texture of S2 track -> 1024x1024 high-res
I'd like to release the S2 manual after the x-mas holidays. So let's say you have time until x-mas so we can make a public voting for about a week, ok? If you need more time, just tell me so we can set the due date to the end of 2005.
It's his work so he can decide where and how big to put his name. Instead of moaning around you could create your own cover and make it better. Nothing against critics, but repeating the same thing all the time together with smilies like illepall are not fair in my opinion.
You're right, but Scawen already made the decision to include codepage support first, so there's no need to argue about it anyway now that it's finished.
It would be much easier to be able to map these keys inside LFS. Not everybody has the controller software running in the background and it's easier to explain a newbie how to set it in LFS then to explain how it is done with the controller software for wheel x from manufacturer y.
In my opinion the pit instructions (F9 - F12 + arrow keys) are even more important than the chat messages. Usually you don't need to chat during a race, but you need to change your pit strategy quite often.
Edit: My suggestion is to add the arrow keys to the "Buttons 1" page and replace "Ctrl + F9 - F12" by "F9 - F12" on the "Buttons 2" page. That would be enough to make all us serious racers happy
Thanks, I've waited for this feature for nearly 3 years
Would it be possible to map the F9 to F12 and arrow keys to buttons as well? This would ease the use of the pit instructions a lot, so you don't need to type on the keyboard while driving.
P.s. You forgot to add a translation string for the "CTRL + Fx" labels, it would be nice to see "Strg + Fx" in german
