Quote from h3adbang3r :I just took this screenshot of my weather radar (Yahoo Widgets) and there is this strange S pattern, even more strange is i live right under part of the "rain" band and theres absolutely no rain clouds, just sun!

What you are looking at is a image from the Doppler radar site itself; sometimes if the atmospheric conditions are right, the very sensitive radar will pick up any sort of moisture in the radars nearby vicinity and display it as precipitation.

Overall the texture looks great, but with any new road there is no...soul, so to say?

Haha, who else rolled their eyes when Aston National and GTR's were mentioned?

For about one year now I have been saving a little here and there to participate for a full course school (1 week IIRC?) at my track, Road America.

From what I heard it is well worth it.

Some questions, not really for my diagnosis, but someone who may be of help:

-Did this happen when trying to get online to play, or offline?

-Did the error message in red say something to the effect of "JOOS ERROR"?

-Do you have any add on programs to enhance Live For Speed, like LFS LApper, Tweek, etc.

NOt to worry; someone will have an answer of some sort, but the more information that you are able to provide, the better the diagnosis. The Live For Speed Developers are I am sure quite happy to help, but give them time, and others time, to find the problem.

Quote from TiJay :I know... But it's too late to change it on that video now

Still got me an A

An A? Really I would have given it a B-, to be honest.

Now I am NOT saying this because I am trying to be a e-jerk. It is a good effort. But the sound was too inconsistent, and, I am a fan of vignetting, but some parts were a little over the top.

Your voice. I do nor know what your age is, but on that clip it was rather thin. Alot of people, in order to not come across as belligerent or loud, do not use the full potential of their voice. When speaking for a presentation, be it in front of a group of people or a narrative, speak in a way that keeps a person interested. You did a fine job of metering and using "colour"(instead of being flat and monotone), but for your next presentation, try this: speak from your stomach, not your throat. See how forceful that is. By controlling your stomach muscles, you can regulate the forcefulness of your voice, and with practice, you can sound like a presenter. Listen to Terry Wogan, or for that matter, BBC Radio 2. The DJs are talking very loud, but obviously the equipment can regulate the sound. Also, if you are able to, or able to find an audio recording program, is to crank up the compression.

If I could, I would record a snippet of how I talk; people tell me constantly I sound like a radio DJ. All I do is speak like I mentioned above.

I once dropped a large rubber band at work, and the shape it formed on the ground was an intriguing design for a track. I took a picture of it with my phone, but sadly I erased it. The shape was similar to the "Super Speedway" in Gran Turismo.

Quote from BoGGis :Since the game has a lot of adjustment options on gears, suspencion and such, i think its about time it gets an electronic boost controller and electronic fuel controller. The devs could have balanced it so that no current setting would give a specific advantage. But, for instance in drifting,

...And that is where I stopped bothering to read.

Quote from 1995CobraR :There are no jumps. can someone show me a pic of where they are maybe?

When you are in shift U mode look for the button that says objects. Ramps are at the bottom.

Quote from [RCG]Boosted :im sorry but is it important for u to see lower revs than 2000?

Yes, yes it is. And it should be for everyone who has invested in this game, hence the reason for this sub-forum. If Scawen is putting XX amount of time into this game so that when the game is finally released to his standards, which I think are quite high, one would assume that this issue would be of importance of him, no matter the insignificance of it.

Keep it. Try something new and different, if you get on a server with this option. You never know until you try....you may like it!

Quote from Vykos69 :Guys, it's AN OPTION!!!

Quote from danowat :

Personally, I really can't see what all the fuss is about, just learn to race from a different view, or don't race on servers that have forced cockpit on them, it's that simple really.

Quote from garph :I knew this stupid arguing/moaning would happen.

I know it says forced cockpit view but it's still optional. I can't see many or why servers would run it, even if they do it will only be to test it or until they realise that not as many people are joining.


Agreed X3. I think some here are blowing this way out of proportion.

After I got my G25 wheel I switched from the view of tires only to cockpit. Took me all of about a week to get used to it.

I did a search, and was unable to find what I see. The tachometer only shows from 2000 rpms up.

Speaking of listening to what you like, I really enjoy the band Keane. Yes, I like Keane, and I am not ashamed of it. They are incredibly talented, make great music, and I am probably one the few straight men who like.

But I dont care!


@Bob Smith - after you mentioned Jazz, I had to listen to a few Mingus songs. BeBop Jazz is so cool, it's hot.

Ha ha...I remember when I was in my twenties and EVERYTHING was reeeeeal intense, MAAAAN. Once you get past the 3-0 mark you either learn to accept that the world isnt going to bend to what you like, and what you like alone, or you become a bitter, jaded a**hole.

Boris, I suspect your friends are going to be jaded and angry alot over trivial things throughout their lifes.

And really, if they were indeed your friends, they would accept that you like different genres of music than they do. It makes you better, well rounded person to explore all sorts of musical facets.

You know what? Find some more decent people to associate with. Life is too short for arrogant, pompous know-it-all twits.

Quote from MAGGOT :There is no such thing as 'free' energy.

How about the sun? Wind? Thermal energy? All three are I would think classified as potential energy.

Or am I missing the point?

Quote from AK-Chester :Bah, :lfs: just keeps getting better with each and every patch/update, and I for one couldn't care less if the next one is called "Y" or "X12345" or "S3" or whatever.

I wish I could see more people post words like this, instead of gripe, especially when it comes to graphics.

I think alot of people, and I get a little annoyed when I keep mentioning this, forget that one human with a life outside of LFS is has done all the graphics, and that Eric is not content to just design and leave alone.

The next time you tear around Aston Historic or Kyoto Long, think about all the little details Eric has kindly done for the benefit of you, the player. Especially the ones who feel that their S2 licence also gives them the right to, and let's be blunt, annoy the three people who have made this game what it is today.

Quote from BBO@BSR :Just for the people who moved the interface to far to the right.
(Then the Interface button is gone)

So when you did something wrong with the X and Y coordinates of the interface then the only way to get the screen back to normal is changing the
SCREEN_CX 0.00
SCREEN_CY 0.00
by hand in the config

Maybe it is helpfull for some (because it took me awhile to find it )

Good to know! Thanks!
