From the comments bellow the video i understand its settup you can do the same in LFS with rb4
Does that mean LFS is as good as GT5 physics wise

Behold the awesome physics of LFS!
That proves LFS is as good as GT5 in therms of physics but have much less cars and tracks the choice is obvious isnt

Actually the GT5 video reveals some more flaws than LFS videos you provided. Faults that can be noticed in LFS :
- improper handling of springs that were damaged (in reality they would just snap and leave the car on the ground)
- drivetrain immortality (the car would just stop moving)

In GT5 its similar but you can also notice that the center of the mass point in the bigger cars is set way too high. The physics engine also is not calculated frequent enough to make the wheels stay above the ground (for such heavy cars) which leads to the last point - when the wheel happens to be under the ground it is treated as a spring and launches the car into the air.

Even with the huge amount of delays, they still haven't got AA in the reflection
And is it me but Vettel's eyes are slightly crooked?

It's not lack of AA. It's lower resolution of reflection that makes it look jaggy.

R.I.P.

The real question is not how accurate the 3d scanner is ( 2cm or less some say ) but how many measurements are taken for one square meter of the track.

It is just sad ...

Glad iRacing managed to laser scan the track before it got ripped apart.

Quote from Bawbag :

I found a great new way to get mega kills, maraphon, lightweight, take the MP5K and a pistol, just run for your life and stab everyone and anyone.

Generally in the maps you can run around the back of where the players mainly spawn, so you can get quite a few of them camping around in obvoious places waiting for plaers coming from the front, lolz!

Then when you kill some with the MP5K you get akimbo and that is just great fun!

I have a simmilar one. Marathon Pro, Lighweight Pro and Commando Pro ( or Ninja Pro if I want play some sneaking ). Main gun - Vector ( this SMG is pure awesome - almost no recoil + long range ), Secondary gun - Magnum'44 with tactical knife. Tactical knife is faster than normal knife, i believe. And I stilll have a magnum that I use to shot down a guy when he is too far away. It is said that you can run even faster with a Care Package smoke grenade equipped.

Try using Holo sight instead of red dot sight. It always shows where the bullets will be shot at even when the gun is not perfectly stright. Helps a lot when you are trying to shot down a fast moving target.

Anyone got a video of Button passing Kubica at the start of the race?

I don't think it was shown live or in any replay. I have full race recorded so I will check again later when I get home.

Dont use Lenovo site - they are using outdated drivers :/ Go to Intel site and download latest from there. You may have problems with "this driver is not Lenovo certified" however you can unpack the drivers from Intel site and use "Update driver" option in Hardware Manager to work-around it.
Intel drivers should be updated very often - many bugs have been fixed recently.

I started making reviews of small vehicles that can be used for time trialing on the little mountain track on "Island" map. I will post reviews of cars you can find in ROR and on the ROR repository. I will concentrate on how they behave on the small twisty track. What are their good and bad sides. I am no Stig so the times will not be perfect so I will try to write down the best section times and sum them up to find out what would be a perfect lap.

I am awaiting your comments If someone is willing to write his/her own review or challenge the lap time I will be happy to put in on my blogspot.

Why do i need to stop the car before I can change the FOV even when i'm offline - wtf?!

U can use "[" and "]" to change FOV while ingame.

Trespasser.



Basically, FarCry but they got there 5 years earlier, and with dinosaurs.

OK, the game was a bit too advanced for the hardware (it used ragdolls and bumpmaps, way before any other game) and the control system was *terrible* - everything was done using the character's arm for which you controlled each joint invididually, by holding down certain keys and moving the mouse. So to pick up a gun and shoot it, you had to kneel down, manoevre the hand to the gun, pick it up, manoevre your hand to sight down it (if you didn't aim the gun forwards, it would fire off to the side - there no crosshairs in this game) then fire.

One I got used to the controls though, I fell in love with it.

A truely awesome game I must admit. A very good article can be found about the games creation on GamaSutra : http://www.gamasutra.com/features/19990514/trespasser_01.htm

Damn, i still remember almost all the codes for the game

... I feel like a geek

Anyone can explain what did Heidfeld wrong to be penalised 3 grid positions ? How could he enter the pitlane without slowing down ??

LFS does not make use of pixel shaders. Only vertex shaders are used. I have GM965 and LFS runs at 30-50fps in hotlapping mode.

What controller do you recommend for the game ? I tired using keyboard and G25 and both were unplayable. I want to buy a game, however I would have to buy a controller to play it

I use G25 at 540 degrees with FF turned off.
The game creators don't possibly know about existence of such thing as understeer so geting into a corner with wheels turned maximaly to the corner direction is the best way to turn - which is impossible to do fast with FF on.

Xbox 360 & Playstation 3 only.USA & Europe Union only.

EDIT:Found the list of the top players who will have the chance to win the BMW.Actualy the top 5 is only composed of France drivers.1:14:08 is the best time.

PC Discriminating bastards ....


Mustang is actually quite fun in the demo.

Is the "Win a BMW competition" organised only for console players ??

I remember that experimental tyre temperature chart was shown in F1 training or qualifying session showing that temperatures change much more rapidly than in LFS (like +10/15 celsius on one single braking).

Just change the background / grid of the speedometer with the custom one ?

Try upgrading your video drivers. Intel is currently working hard on performance issues so downloading latest drivers can improve your fps.
