Quote from tristancliffe :

There was talk of Scawen making a shift option, thus doubling the effective buttons on your wheel.

So you can have button 1 and shift+button 1 do different things.

you can already do that with the logitech profiler (don't know about the other wheels).

And about the problem of the threadstarter. I don't see why mapping buttons to the wheel would help if you lose your FFB.

Anyway, i don't need such an option, the profiler works fine for me. If it's implemented, i think it should be done by the cfg file (like CS e.g.), because the menu in LFS is already complicated enough, and if you have to map all functions first, it would scare newbies even more
Try rFactor, and you know what i mean

numberplate as in "nummernschild"

it's definitely there, at the same windows where you adjust the FFB settings

•and starting lfs in high priority mode (useful for slow pc like mine )

just a little remark, you shouldn't do this if you using programs like teamspeak2 while playing lfs.
I've done this with GTR and it took some time to figure out why my TS didn't work properly anymore

if you need to change from 200 to 900° you probably got an older driver version. you can only set this in the profiler with the 4.60 version, where 900° is used as default.

just like the numberplate

i hope not the same way he made his WR :hide:

now we have flags in the forum, the next step could be in the game

nice little addition btw, the forum is getting better and better

i wonder if we will see any non-XRR teams?

Quote from Daviddabest :

Ok Ok,

I made all of the team Speed Freaks Skins, (All S2cars) So I think I should Know what im doing!

yes, but you are "da best".


And i guess you haven't done a suit, because you cannot just take it from the pics folder and paint over it...

Well, scawen fixed the problem in the demo, where you got a DQ if you pitted in last or 2nd last lap and got a penalty, because you can't do you penalty stop in the last lap (race is over before reaching the end of the pitlane).

It was fixed, now you get a 30/45sec penalty if you're too fast in the last 3 laps.
But the problem is still there if you have a time based raced.

I think scawen should add a time limit where you get a time penalty instead of a DT/S&G, e.g. 5 minutes before the end of the race you get time penalties (like the 3 laps in lap based races)

but it's still a problem, because you should have to chose if you want to do your penalty stop or a repair stop.
You should be able to tell LFS that you want to do a normal pitstop the next time you pit. of course you would have to do your penalty stop later.

Because a lap on Aston GP can be very long with a damaged car

Quote from Lola Popeye :

You've probably seen this, but i'll post it again

what?

there is a movies forum here

i'm glad the devs are europeans....

wow, that's a really great advertisement for LFS




PS: gunn, what's your problem? illepall

yes, but you asked for clean windows

Quote from DasKlee :

if that isn't possible i would appreciate it, not to have any window names at all (and for the FO cars no name at all) making it possible to include the name and flag into the skin

just leave the numberplate empty...

(if you want a text on the plate, just use a colored text)

a simple but great idea! also i like the idea of having a flag on the GTR cars, but more importantly having more than 8 digits, but that was suggested a million times.

and you could still way to buy until the final version is out. it's your choice...

Quote from spankmeyer :

The more I play rFactor the more I'm getting the feeling that LFS is lacking. The whole "being at the races" feel and atmosphere is on a whole new level above LFS. Listening to LFS's sounds makes me cringe now after hearing cars in rFactor. LFS most definetly needs a big improvement on the audio part. Maybe time to hire a sound designer?

it's not hard to use recorded sounds like GTR or rF.
LFS has another philosphy, you'll have to accept that. And maybe someday it's as good as those 2 games, but with all the advantages of synthesized sounds.

Quote from al heeley :

In that case, why not just skin the back end of the car, as thats all I get to see anyway on the track.

i always drive with tv cam!

Quote from andylec :

Although they did get rather concerned when I wanted to lean out of the window to get a better shot with my trusty Box Brownie

i guess that's a no?

yes, maybe a confirmation here or by mail would be nice, at least that the application arrived, regardless if it's accepted or not

would you like to share with us how you did this?

kyoto is nice, looks totally different from above
