Not every player will check a mod for unrealistic values.
It makes it difficult to interpret players feedback.

Perhaps some bike mods with good/realistic physic settings should be selected for testing?

Quote from Lutbelut. :

aah poo... well, what's should i do to keep this project published?

edit: i'll start over

You should post good suitable pictures that show how you are creating the 3D model.
Even without the elegy.dff your screenshots seemed pretty hard to believe.
Compare your pictures to a thread like this: https://www.lfs.net/forum/thread/105673-bmw-3-series-e36

Now you "started over" and again there are no reference picturs, no blueprint that lines up with the model, no video, no nothing.
Just a picture of a 50% finished car shell that you supposedly created in less than 3 hours.
It is super easy to fake such screenshots and sadly too many users have tried that already.

ctrl+f5 fixed it.
No idea if this was an issue with browser (Firefox) or website.

Hm, still broken for me.
Did you try stuchlo & Eclipsed?

I noticed for some users, it does not list their uploaded mods anymore.
For some users it seems to work normal.

For example:
https://www.lfs.net/files/vehmods?user=stuchlo
" stuchlo has not uploaded any vehicle mods. "

https://www.lfs.net/files/vehmods?user=Eclipsed
" Eclipsed has not uploaded any vehicle mods. "

Both users have public mods that should be listed.
Also, it is still possible to view the mods by going to their page directly:
https://www.lfs.net/files/vehmods/F7BE47
or
https://www.lfs.net/files/vehmods/11627A

Quote from IncogSalmon :

Thanks! If I add him back into the league will he get notified?

Not sure.

Demo accounts can not sent private messages because it could be abused for spam.
I sent hj93 a private message with title "IncogSalmon wants to contact you" and a link to this thread.

You could also watch at https://www.lfsworld.net/?win=stats&racer=hj93 when he comes online and join the same server.
He last raced online today a few hours ago.

There is a mod for GTA that replaces the fictional "Elegy" car with an Mercedes-Benz CLK GTR.
The GTA file is named elegy.dff
There is an elegy.dff file in your screenshot.

Quote from Aleksandr_124rus :

For example, researchers consider that Dino-Killing Asteroid Impact Warmed Earth's Climate about 4.5- to 5-degree [C, or 8.1 to 9 degrees F] change in average temperature for 100,000 Years.
This change is higher than it is now. Therefore, your statement is incorrect.

I had assumed you were talking about slow natural cycles in temperature.
A giant asteroid might had more impact on earth's temperature than humans but such event is so different from man-made effects, it makes little sense to compare.
It seems like something to bring up to be "technically correct" but it beside that it contributes nothing to discussion.


It is interesting how some people are so sceptical towards science. It is the same science that built the computer you are currently typing on. The same science that landed us on the moon and made all kind of stuff possible. Nobody is doubting science when they need to get their appendix removed. Nobody ever said: "That is all fake science, integrated circuits are not real. I will build my own graphics card."
But when it comes to climate change, suddenly everyone is an expert.

Quote from jackson93 :

Two points of view from yesterday's race:





Next week: South City Classic with XFG and XRG

How do you create those info displays?
(brake / throttle graphs etc)

Quote from Aleksandr_124rus :

But global warming and global cooling is a frequent event if you think throughout the history of the earth.

Never before have temperatures changed so rapidly.
https://xkcd.com/1732/

Quote from Aleksandr_124rus :

To accurately assess the human impact, you need to calculate the exact amount of CO2 emissions from human and non-human causes over at least a few decades and see what the correlations are with temperature.

That has been done.

And I'm more interested in understanding why is global warming a bad thing?

https://climate.nasa.gov/
That answers basically all questions.

Why did you blank the Content / license location & License credits?
Please put it back.

good timelapse video

the videos look like retopology, you seem to be tracing an existing model

Maybe it is better if you create a new mod for the new model changes?
This mod has "Approved" and "Staff Pick" status, so it would be nice if it was always in good condition.

Hi
This place or "Hardware" seem suitable for your problem.
Somewhere in Options it should list "available axes" and if you steer or press pedals then some of the axes should move.
You might have to assign the axes to controls, like axis1 = brake and so on.

Or is nothing moving in the list of axes either?

Quote from kyanisaf :

I put on show peadles and it shows a grey thing should this meansomething

Grey bar is the handbrake. It should disengage automatically.
If you push your brake/throtle pedals then a red/green bar should go up and down and the engine should rev.

Hi,
The video is not so useful because it ends when LFS crashes.
I guess more info is needed.
Does it display an error message?
Does it crash on every ogg file or do some work?
If ALL your ogg files cause a crash then test if the official addon music works:
https://www.lfs.net/file_lfs.php?name=LFS_MUSIC_ADDON.zip

Quote :

Is there a maximum length of the song or something, or are YouTube videos not allowed?

If the music was downloaded from youtube then my guess is that maybe the extractor-tool did something wrong?
It should of course not crash, no matter how corrupted a file might be.
Can you maybe share the music file that you tried to play? So we can test if crashes on other systems, too.
If other users can reproduce the crash then they can post stuff like log files or info from that windows crash events thingy, which is important to fix crashes.

youtube suggested this video to me, must have been because of this mod.

Thumbnail looks a bit clickbait-ish but the video is good.
It has interesting footage of various Tatra cars using this kind of cooling system, including some single seaters.

Discord isn't exactly considered a social media, in my opinion.

I see it more as messenger like ICQ, Teamspeak, AIM, IRC etc. and those never were in profile.

Personally I do not like discord so much but it is okay for chatting and voice. Just have to keep in mind that it might eventually disappear and all content is lost. (Remember google+ ?)
Anyway, discord is currently widely used.
So it would be useful to include it.

I made progress report on my very good game. You can read that instead.

Let's compare.
map editor
Live For Speed: no
my very good game: yes

force feedback
Live For Speed: feedback only from driving
my very good game: realistic blaster recoil

reverse
Live For Speed: not in demo
my very good game: no because space ship

Quote from mbutcher :

With InSim.

Everything? Some things are not possible with Insim I think.
For example:

At least the car graphic must be overlaid in another way. (Maybe in the streaming software)

Quote from cuni :

Still relevant !

see my post from 2015 above yours. It is the pack with thousands of setups that drugsexcaramelo shared.
Also see "new" setup site on lfs.net: https://www.lfs.net/files/setups
Likely most relevant sets are either there or in the zip.

By the way, using the rev gauge in this car to know where to shift is not very helpful, because the torque curve drops down significantly before it can even hit the hard rev limiter. So I’m not sure if it’s even useful to have it at all.

I get what you mean but there will still be an optimal rpm to shift at. With a gauge it is easier to hit the best spot, whether it is at 3000 or at 6000 rpm.

Yes, aftermarket configuration would be nice. Most important the RPM gauge but maybe also cage.

I prefer to have RPM gauges in all cars, even if the original does not have them. Otherwise players are forced to use virtual RPM display (or be at disadvantage) which is imo more unrealistic than an extra instrument on the dashboard.
