Where excactly do you want to play VR games?
Remember it is not like playing normal games on smartphone, you have the display mounted on head and can not see anything. So it is not practical to use in almost every situation where people typically play games on phone.

Tonight we race FBM at Rockingham Historic (Ro8) for 32 laps.
Qualification begins at 19:30, that is ca 2h 45min from this post.

A problem when comparing to the F1 thermal images is that they never include a temperature scale.
We do not know at what temperatures it fades to next colors. The color-mapping might not even be linear and could be different between races or teams..

thanks, fixed. The MRT race at Fernbay will be on 22 October.
The schedule had slightly changed after I had already entered it into LFS-calender.


Generally the calender on league website is the official one.
(Also in LFS-calender it says the XFG-Cup uses 10minute-qualification but that is just because it is not possible to enter one-lap-qualification mode which is actually used.)

Today evening we race RAC and Fz5 at South City Long (SO4) for 25 laps.

(Starting at 19:30, that is 4 hours from this post)

Since the payment was only 5 minutes ago, maybe just wait.

That would be the next step.

Not sure if regular events are worth posting because it is calender and subforum anyway? Anyway:
I race the AB.nl events almost every sunday, and this evening too.

Today is first round of a XFG-Cup At Fernbay (fe1r), so good moment to join even though main-season has already begun.
Qualy in 40 minutes.

Second season of the ABC-Cup!
As one might remember, the ABC-Cup means racing the XFG in three different specs:


Spec A: (190 kg ballast) - red class tag
Spec B: (95 kg ballast + 6% air intake restriction) - blue class tag
Spec C: (13% air intake restriction) - green class tag
(C restriction increased by 1% compared to last season)

Drivers have to use their choosen configuration for the whole season.

Full details:
http://absolute-beginners.nl/e107_plugins/forum/forum_viewtopic.php?15745.last

First race is Fern Bay Club reversed, 23 laps sprint race followed by 46 laps main race.

wikipedia lists 78 games using Denuvo.
51/78 are listed as cracked.
The ratio does not look so good for Denuvo.
It looks worse when you consider of the uncracked ones:
--3 are not released yet
--5 were released very recently (between 3-14 days ago)
--a few are console-only (probally harder to crack)

The goal is not to have unbeatable protection anyway.
Protection works because video games make the most money in the month after release. The protection only needs to delay piracy for a month or two and then it has done its job.
For example FIFA 16 is supposedly uncracked, and it might remain uncracked because FIFA 17 (which is cracked) already exists. And soon FIFA 18 will be released.
Similiar with the uncracked Need for Speed from 2015: Since then two new titles of the series have been released and a third one is announced.

Today: GTR class at Blackwood Historic
qualifying begins in 30 minutes

For me monday would fit best. But on mondays is also cesva that I wanted to race but often could not make it in time.

If sunday is most popular, currently the AB-calender has some free days that were meant for special races/cup. Maybe it is possible to coordinate the dates? See pm @ rony.

qualy begins in 15 minutes

register and login on website ( www.absolute-beginners.nl )
then at right side you can see a box with serverlinks and the weekly password

good

The schedule for new season again features a mix of the slowest and fastet cars of LFS:

For details see the "Forthcoming Events" box on calender.

To make a setup easier to drive it is sometimes just small changes. Bit more camber or brake-bias more forward generally makes the car more stable. But that is a matter of compromises and taste too.

In slick cars a bit factor is tire heat and wear. Sometimes slower driver find quick setups difficult to drive because they never go fast enough to get the tires on temperature. Or other way around, they slide so much that it ruins and overheats the tires.

Quote from Mate2169 :

Not cars in general but suspension of it (and some interior)
for example the xfg and xrr share same suspension (in f10 mode atleast)

Not sure what you mean, but those cars have very different suspensions.
xrr has 2x double-wishbones and xfg has mc-peterson-something, or how it is spelled.
In garage-screen click "Susp" to see the geometry. Or shift+L while driving.

From the driving, sure that was not at Oktoberfest?

Today at 19:30 CET (2 hours from this post)
The finale race of LX Cup!

There seems to be a problem that new accounts on www. absolute-beginners.nl are not automatically activated or not recieving activation-emails.
If that happens to you please post here on lfs.net so that an admin can manually activate your account.
Else you will not be able to post or see servers and passwords.
Hopefully it will be fixed soon.

I think in LFS these rules are somewhat widely accepted: https://en.lfsmanual.net/wiki/Rules_of_Clean_Racing

Quote from nacim :

I stopped playing this server because I can't play with my G25's H-shifter anymore. I don't know why you disabled it, but it seems stupid to kick player with more realism. Bring it back please!

I just tried and it did not kick me

truckloader: there will be an announcement when new saison begins.
(in some weeks or so)

This sunday we have one more special race:
http://absolute-beginners.nl/e107_plugins/calendar_menu/event.php?1502652600.event.562

Car: XFG
Track: Aston Cadet
Laps: 4 x 15

With the special rule that two drivers share one car and have to do a mandatory driver-swap.
(good idea to be bit earlier on server to find teammate and practice driver swap)

multiple devices work for me:
I use G27 wheel and an usb-buttons-thing, both can be used together in LFS.

If you go to options->controls and hold down buttons on wheel/shifter, do the pressed controls get displayed?

This sunday at 19:30 usual time, another one-off event:
25 laps at Blackwood extension layout track
GTR cars (FZR 27 kg ballast)
http://absolute-beginners.nl/e107_plugins/calendar_menu/event.php?1502047800.event.561
Server: AB.nl[END]

Today evening at the usual time: Open Server Sprint Evening. We re-visted the combos from last season, but in much shorter length.
http://absolute-beginners.nl/e107_plugins/calendar_menu/event.php?1501443000.event.560
