Quote from Michael Denham :Previously if you wanted to use a custom view to change the default view (say move up or forwards a bit), you had to go from the middle of the car in the custom view and move left (or right if you're a right-hand-driver...) and then change it how you wanted. Now you just click eye view to get the default driving view and then move from there. Great addition IMO.

if thats all it is, its obvious crap clutter.
what if i value more the driver penis, or the right headlight. shall i also get a stupid predetermined button for those positions just so i can adjust "from there"?
custom is about customization, a personal thing. as soon as u start adding predetermined button crap, to change an origin, whole logic brakes loose.
thats not a great addition and a fault in any design schematic.
unless the guideline driving it is spasms of insanity.
this has no place in there and should be removed.
this doesnt fit any logical usage and therefore, will confuse players. new or old.

Quote from Hyperactive :When I go to LFS.net I'd like to find some LFS background pictures and maybe some of the best LFS movies could be hosted by LFS?

copyright stuff prevents that from happening. most movies or pics have either unlicensed logos/art and/or music.

Quote from AndroidXP :Seems the physics have been tweaked "a bit" (source)

absolutely nothing thats not in there for 4 years. criticizing it today can be done by just copy pasting what was wrote 4 years ago.
what puzzles me is how can a turd float for this long and still gather a dozen of die-hard-im-not-good-on-any-other-sim players. sometimes i wonder if ppl just support it and even buy (!?!?!) it just coz they dont wanna eat their own words.
justice be done, some ate them, and set things straight. late is better than never. well done to them.

the view mode should be only one. like originally proposed. u later added view2 coz u said someone couldnt see properly. also didnt remove wheels view. listening too much creates disformity in your creation. options of options without a clear aim, creates blur, characterless.
Its the options TAKEN that define your art. flexibility, is not a whore for everyone.
the customview mode should imo be one (i said mode). if u want to, why not add a toggle option for "invisible car/invisible at glance/always visible" (HC mode sensitive), im fine with that. Please refer to my ancient, proposal for that ui, since its still far ahead of current lfs (which i understand, and understanding is not always great).
same concern wasnt put at clr sky modes, and imho, it was handy to have a full scr for blue screening etc. i never used ellipsoid btw but far from me to req a flower this year. ill never be an excuse for the easy. sucess is relative, competition is a hard thing. i bite the easy i stand by the fighters.
i like the edge i like the punk. i spit at the fearful.
**** the established, long live the lfs i believed in.
hope to see it next year, focused, streamlined and taming the hard challenges.
hope iracing will be the producer this game doesnt have. even though i know thats not the carrot that makes u move. but i can hope for a light. and dont worry i like carrots too.

hey kunos, fisher-price called and they want the alien hovercraft with magneto balls running on rails technology from the 70s back.
understeer/oversteer was a complete canned joke.
game is nothing different from what it was.

theres no community. theres a guy named jaap thats trying to get a job defending the undefensible.
the feel of nkp is the feel of getting screwed.

releasing this patch to a pissed off audience via all the crap and spyware installing "free" download websites, with queues, country quota limitations and speeds my 56k would fly over, is just a touch of genius.

just a side note, audigy cards have since birth been plagued with crackling issues, never to be solved via driver, motivating group protests etc.
i dont own one and followed the controversy at a distance but someone owning one prolly can give a summary of that whole situation.

The year 2006 is all about requests like "omg i need virtual mirrors in chase cam, or even, omg i need both virtual and real mirrors coz i live in a hyper reality".

please stick to the script and do not disturb the superfluous with the vital

Quote from deggis : At least SimBin/Blimey has always knewn how to do that part.

It wasnt they who knew how to do it. It's the guy they hired (who did n2003 for example and a bunch of other titles). Greg Hill its his name.
If interested in knowing his vast curriculum http://members.optusnet.com.au/soundconcepts/index

Race could only disapoint ppl who had any hopes in it. Since i didnt, besides the 30 mins i wasted installing /uninstalling on 2 different computers, its totally indiferent to me.

Doesnt run on a non dx9 machine (needed a complete install to tell me that). So i installed it on a dx9 machine (i run oblivion there) and it rendered the ingame action at less that 1 frame per second. Obvious malfunction since it was totally unplayable and a drag to even make the buttons work to escape. About 1 frame displayed every 3 seconds or so. Incredibly slow. So i couldn't even run it to try it. According to others that were able to run it its a subrate product, done by the arcade branch after the blimey/simbin split. Toca was mentioned as being close to it. If it is or not, i dunno, what i know is that i wont waste anymore time with it.

ps: windowed mode was a joke and the installer stalls were also funny, especially considering when ppl complain about lfs.zip 1 sec unpack... was race a mod done by amateur dudes fresh out of school disguised as a commercial venture? Im sure it will be a sucess with the amount of ads and euroass behind it, and once again will prove that this society in so many areas, enhances and rewards mediocrity.

Quote from Kegetys :Bad thing about this though is that the drivers helmet is still drawn (assuming you have the driver on) and parts of it come visible annoyingly when you have G-forces moving the view...

selecting move with animation doesnt fix that?
