For years before LFS I only played one game online, Counter-Strike, why?
Because it had an independant development team that listened to the community, and a fantastic community too!

I never thought anything would take over from CS, until I tried LFS, it has the same great independant, interactive, evolution style of games development that I truly love, they listen to the community and what a great community!

Keep up the good work and dont let the corporate whores take over!
Keep It Real!

Fishy - "It's ****!ng sh!t!"

I find 100 works well on profiler then change the settings ingame as I go using the < and > keys. Most of the road cars work well with 100 in game, apart from the UF1 which needs a bit more, and the FOX with certain settings can be a bit slack so I tend to up that to 120. Then the GTR's can be a bit aggressive with 100 so I drop it to 90 usually good luck with your wheel Aly it takes a little getting used to but once you do its immense!

Oh and also... HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!

I managed a nice two wheels on as historic after the chicane (which I kept!) only to drive further down the track and do it again (this time I did roll it!)

hehe
I'm sitting on the fence on this one!

I didnt want to imply I wanted everyone to get excited just thought people could give a little feedback. I think your right about the action, for my next vid im currently compiling a few replays which contain crashes hopefully will be good

This is my first attempt at a movie, ill just take a section out the readme to explain what its about:

This Video is mostly me battling for position after a bad start.
I hoped to capture the fact that LFS is not allways about being
the fastest driver, but having fun battling in close races!

btw im the old style Vectra BTC in the race

Criticism is welcomed as long as its contructive of course!

vid can be found here: http://www.lfsnews.net/moviespit/default.asp?movieid=592

Cheers for the advice Sam although I took a slightly different approach before you posted. I got a program that converted my wmv file (VirtualDub told me it was asf ) to avi and used VDub on it after, took a little time but ah well its done now.

If you wanna take a look its on movies pit now. Its my first movie and criticism is welcomed, as long as its constructive of course

Hey I have just followed the tutorial hoping to make my first movie.

I only have the trial version of Fraps so 30 sec clips is all I get. After recording a few laps I did on a random server I came out with 90 seperate video files all recorded at half speed (30fps).

I then edited them and stuck em together with movie maker. Unfortunately VirtuaDub doesnt support the .asf files movie maker exports to and now im stuck with a movie at half speed.

Although half speed looks quite cool is there any way to encode .asf files without having to individually encode all 90 vids first then import into mm.

Thanks - Jamie

Another well made skin but looks like your another victim of Mcdonaldization!

Hey

This is my first attempt at skinning so advice / criticism is what I need. I realised after I finished that u can skin in higher res, hopefully when I get the time ill update this to max res as I only chose 512*512 DOH! :banghead:

*UPDATE* I have now uploaded a 1024 version after making the skin again with the wireframe skinset (which is amazing by the way, so much easier

Anyway here it is Skyline influenced but I just made the design up myself then added logos and tried to keep it simple for my first go!
