Hi,

since I'm getting S2 in a few days, I also would like to know cars who are both popular and easy to control. Tracks are nice as well but it's mainly a car's issue as I don't want to drive RAC and/or MRT only to find it's very difficult/unpopular...

I regret putting the GTR affix to my username, makes me sound like a ISI-based 'sim' fanboy and not an LFS one...

13 days from now, I am hoping for have S2, since my parents will buy it, however I must wait...









...because mum needs to figure out a way to pay first

Seeing the lack of a competitor for the UF1 is somewhat awkwards for me...
I think, that "kei-cars" similar to the Mazda AZ-1 and Suzuki Cappuccino would make some good competitors for the UF1, and would also keep up the pattern of a FWD/(front engine)RWD/(mid/rear engine)RWD/4WD pattern seen in most of the other classes. Although, I'm not sure if the XF and UF GTR's need any more competition.

Yes, I know I'm a demo racer, but it would be cool at least to see...

Buy S2 only to find the servers are equally as bad (or worse, 20+ car grid!?) as demo?

The content sounds great and all (can't say no to a _proper_ racing varient of my favorite demo cars!), but with 20+ cars on track at once (I hear,) the T1 pile-up possiblities get worse because it's VERY simple:
more cars = less room = more possible aggressive drivers = greater possiblity of a T1 pileup.
And through that little theory, I'd find that to get good racing I'd have to join a league!
And I have no time for that!

LFS is so good that all S2 Licensed racers are elitist towards all demo racers.

It's maybe not a suggestion for LFS itself but it is maybe a suggestion for S2 players. If I said hi on the forum as a demo racer I sure as hell would not like the entire population of S2 users jumping on me just for being a demo racer. No wonder why I see posts by all the same folks, they are there to scare what might be future S2-licenced users.

It's just the way the devs are?

Only thing that isn't so great isn't being able to have 16 cars on grid, or not having 24 connections and 12 on track at once.

If that were done then it I wouldn't really need so much out of a demo.

Quote from LFSn00b :

I had this idea when i was watching http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C6Lhp4NxqaQ
this.

So, who's interested? So make a crappy randomish movie and post it here!

Only 1 rule:

MAKE THE MOVIE YOURSELF.

The worst movie is having no movie at all, therefore anyone who doesn't post in this thread with a movie automatically wins.

(Sarcasm intended.)

YES, I FINALLY BEAT THE TIME!!!

I recommend you run a soft suspension stiffness with some tight ARBs, not to mention lots of paralell steer.

...the part circled...

If I made it myself, then all I'd need to know then is...
1. Where can I find a quite high-res logo...?
2. What's the font used for the number as well as the S2 part of the logo as shown on the screenshot?

Quote from joen :

The numberplates aren't part of the skinfiles, so you can't change them. The same goes for the font.
Not that you are able to use the GTR cars anyway.

By numberplate I meant the part of which a racing car's number is displayed.

EDIT: And quit trying to call me a cracker, I never crack the simulation software!!! And what's wrong with skinning cars I like?

Hi, I'm looking for some high resolution versions of the numberplates that are commonly used on the GTR car's default skins, as well as a font that is the same as said skins?

Thanks!

Although I am a demo racer and I have not raced AS4, I do know that locked tyres at the front is usually, because one either:

a) brakes are set too high
b) brakes too hard (user error)
c) tries to steer too hard (not smooth enough)
or
d) has their brake bias set too far to the front...

Do also try to avoid getting on the gas to early as this can cause some pretty huge oversteer and if you don't know how to countersteer then... eh... say hello to the nearest wall.

Hi,

Anyone make the skin for XRT of the Tashita2 car from Carmageddon 2?
(and for those who want for make it a pic attached below)

I use 31 these days. (remember Windows 3.1x!?)

Okay, because I have lost my files, I can't continue progress.
(Dumb@$$ :doh

Well, in that case, I think all of us may leave - or worse, head back to the ISI fanboy infested RSC.

I apologise for not driving, I am generally a lurker of these forums and thus can't get the message in time for the race. If you can, please send a PM to the racers in a day's time before the race? That way so they can have time for prepare??

And can I still join?

Are you sure you have not tried a fresh install like I have? That may solve the problem, otherwise I can't help you on this

Apparently, trying a fresh new installation stopped the problems.

Note to self, never overwrite important files.
