Quote from d6nn :

coz i didnt like the music (chinese:really

Japanese ;P

I loved it, totally different than most of the race movies nowadays, which are all pretty much similar. Great Job!

frokki: in s2 - no. In demo? I have no idea.

Really fun to watch racing footage, but nothing special if it comes to how it's been edited imo. Sorry, I just really am picky when it comes to timing the movie with the music.

This movie really gives a "Tension" feeling of making a WR, and it rises while the movie continues.. Will the next corner work? Will the next split be ok? Etc, The "Keep on fighting/going" feeling is in it. Great one.

Here's what I think:

Drifting is drifting, simple? Yes. And please - mods, don't let this discussion continue. Don't let some people make all drifters look stupid again. This is just ridicilous.

Thx again.

Two mirrors had to go down due to bandwidth usage, because of the movie. New mirror:

But the effects don't look too good on it(Especially the shaky cam).

Thanks again,

mcintyrej: I recorded it with fraps.

RBSteve: I've put some time in demo, but then it was years ago, in 2004. It took me longer to make movies then. I also think that Saiko D Demo Movie was better "thought" video overally, even if the effects were worse, some clips were choppy etc. Anyway, thx for criticism, I'm glad that someone still likes that old movie nowadays.

I think Moonie was just being sarcastic. I find "-x because it's a drift movie" very funny.

Thanks a lot.

@d6nn: I used sapphire shake effect and modified it a bit. Same thing can be done manualy by changing movie size and position + some other little tweaks. I've also added some blur.

Thanks once again, reading those comments makes me really happy and willing to continue making lfs movies.

Yes I do Bosse, thx again.

Thx for comments.

Spangler_CZE: That's best quality I could get without things getting choppy I've used Premiere to edit.

It's been some time since I've made a new video, so I got a bit rusty with editing.. But I still hope that you guys/girls like it. Enjoy and comments please.

Enthusia gotta be the most under rated sim ever.

Very nice, I like the fact that the movie feels dynamic. I would give it a high rating, but I will not because I hate drifting. :nut: Just kidding.

Nice job.

Quote from Woz :

At no point do I say every drifter is like that. I just pointed out WHY drifters get a bad name and that there is a huge friction against them.

No, Not all drifters are the same and I like to drift in LFS from time to time BUT it is not a small minority that appear to act like morions.

I think that most of the "proper drifters" don't even bother to post at official LFS forums often. Why would you want to post somewhere, where you aren't tolerated? Besides, when "proper drifters" actually post they don't call themselves drifters and so they are recognized as normal LFS users, that is racers. Not to mention that most of them race anyway. People usually recognize drifters at forums when:

a) They post a video/edited screenshot/skin etc.
b) They post a drift team thread.
c) They act like idiots and dumbasses - that would be the biggest group here. And those often are demo players. Stupid threads and posts also tend to be more popular.. For some reason. That ofcourse makes those people stand out more from the crowd..

On the other hand, I have to say that nowadays drifting community is not a community I would like to see or the community I remember from the past. It will be probably best if I stop writing here. Not a good idea to poo in your own nest.

Awesome one, mate.

For stock skyline, m3 e30 etc. Enthusia Proffesional Racing on ps2 is the best imo. It's the only game for which I would like get ps2 back. I think you can even call it a sim. And the caterham sure drives similar to LX6.

Quote from BlakjeKaas :

So... Why ask more?

That's your question about more degrees.. It has been answered MANY times before. And also on last page(This quote is actually a reply to your post! Did you even bother to read it? ):

Quote from Gunn :

Well too bad for you. The devs accept drifters as a part of our community. This topic is about max drift lock not your own opinion on LFS drifting. And to nail the real topic down flat for everyone, most of the serious drifters in LFS would like more lock not to make cars easier to control, but to provide the means to maintain much more agressive angles and hold them for longer. These guys have no trouble going sideways, but more extreme angles used to be possible when the steering range was greater, and in real life drifting events it is not uncommon to see cars obtaining these types of angles. Some would say it is the most spectacular part of the genre.

So what is being requested here is not unrealistic nor unreasonable. It's quite easy to understand, I would have thought.

Tristan, it would be even better if everyone had to also use manual clutch. Go hardcore. Talking of manual.. I hope Scawen will make a realistic clutch soon. It's quite crappy at the moment, but better that than nothing I guess.

gleetk: What was your s1 video?

Because it makes your argument against 45 degrees even more stupid. The amount of degrees needed to catch the slide doesn't really matter at all as long as not everyone is using the same amount of degrees. You can turn 36 degrees in lfs WAAAAY quicker than me with DFP and 720 degrees. Does it make lfs 'no sim' for me now? Because for some people things are easier? Eh.. Whatever.

BlakjeKaas: How many degrees does your steering wheel have?

Quote from Shotglass :

if you want to go full 90 play netkar

Oh you mean that sim with autorecover when angle >= 90 degrees?

Sorry for OT.

Read the whole thread and you will understand.
