Randomly generated street circuits aren't _good_ content. Sure it'd be infinitely more tracks but few of them would be good.
SteamOS. Windows so far has just been for iRacing which also runs at 80-100 FPS at Catalyuna.
It's definitely a tale of 2 (or 3) devices. When it works (and it does work 95% of the time) it's fantastic. When it doesn't work it feels clumsy. For instance I spent the better part of 2-3 hours debugging why my games wouldn't launch before realizing that somehow one of the runtime parts got corrupt. Had to go and delete it and get Steam to redownload it and then everything worked well. With another game, for whatever reason, it got corrupted both times during download and it took me tons of troubleshooting to realize that I just needed to verify game data and then it worked.
On the bright side too it does run Windows really well with official (but unsupported by Valve) drivers. So for games that don't work in Linux because of Anti-cheat (iRacing in my case) you can always create a SD card with Windows on it and dual boot. This also gives a bit of reassurance that if the SteamOS experience isn't good enough or Valve abandons it that you're still in a state where it can just be a portable PC.
I'm glad I got my reservation when I got it becuase it's nice to have for the past week. Wish I just had more free time to actually play games with it rather than somewhat proof of concept all my usecases for it.
Unlocked FPS with full AI I'm about 150-200 FPS at Westhill.
Not too bad for a handheld.

What's there for LFS to improve? LFS has its data exposed. If Simhub is trying to run LFS incorrectly that's up to SimHub to fix.
The error message suggests it's trying to exec LFS.exe without setting the current directory to be the LFS directory which will cause issues as LFS won't load assets properly.

60 FPS lock enabled for everything. I'm sure if I disabled that I'd hit the LFS default 100FPS lock.
60 lock is interesting because of how little power it consumes. Only 9W of power draw gives about 4-5 hours of play. There's also a way to set the display to 40hz which is another way to save even more power without overly affecting game smoothness (as 40hz is basically perfectly in the middle of 30 and 60 for frame timing).
Somehow I doubt Scawen who has had a fairly environmentalist stance on things would accept crypto which wastes an incredible amount of energy and resources, especially when compared to the number of transactions it actually processes.
It's almost like the countries being banned from participating in financial transactions is for a reason.
Crypto is never a solution because the overhead and environmental for a single transaction is so great. Right now you'd pay about $40-50 USD in fees for a $50 USD transaction to buy LFS S3.
I don't think you'll find anyone willing to help circumvent sanctions placed on Russia.
Yes. It's only 18 GBP, not 36 GBP
Fixed setups are common in other sims and there's nothing wrong with them. Having the ability for the server to force a given setup for a car would be fine.
I mean he's been repeatedly banned for spreading tons of conspiracy garbage. The fact he gets unbanned and continues to post similar drivel implies that it's ok at some level.
I mean at this point is fairly normal. No different to joining a TS/Mumble/Ventrilo server in the past. Main difference is that the server host doesn't get your IP or anything so you're more protected from attacks.
Top aligned would probably look better.
If other sims were dead/non-existent then maybe you'd have a point that the number of people looking for realism is low, but other sims have 10-20k simultaneous active users on a daily basis where LFS caps out at 300 active users at once.
There's a market for sim racing and LFS once was the leader in terms of content/variety/multiplayer but it is not that anymore.
Sounds like it would be a real crime if there were people playing LFS.
iRacing even uses EGS to drive license sales as well. On both platforms they also offer some nice deals 1-2 times a year which makes picking up a smurf account very cheap for a year
I guess you think the Russian military is just in Ukraine having a vacation, right?
Yes physics hasn't changed but a big part about driving a TCR/GT4/GT3 is the electronics. They all have TCS and ABS systems which LFS does simulate but those systems have changed in the 15 years since implementation to be far more race-y. The TCS system in most GT3 cars has so many properties to adjust to maximize speed while still retaining some of the TCS safety.
I mean that is iRacing. Assuming a normal licence cadence, as a Rookie you're likely gonna have a few weeks in the Miata, from there you graduate to D licence with a few cars available to master, but you can't go and race a wide range of cars from the start.
Yeah. Officially ARM Windows is OEM only. Parallels is doing some shady things to get a version of ARM Windows to install for parallels.
It worked ok in Parallels when I recently tried as long as sound was disabled. Sound dropped FPS to an unusable level.
Crossover doesn't really work. Even if you do launch it, the FPS is uselessly bad.

GT7 has the ability to reset the ghost at each sector
It's only a different game becuase LFS has, more or less, stayed static for a long time. Many of the top drivers in iRacing used to be top LFS drivers in its heyday. Heck, I stumble across the odd old LFS driver who recognizes me on a semi-regular basis (especially considering my timezone is suboptimal for most).
