trail braking is all about getting thwe wieght over the front wheels to give you more grip on the front wheels, nothing to do with setup, if ure overtseering when trail braking your doing it wrong, if your set up cant handle it your setup is naff, because trail braking is always faster as you can get into the corner faster and acdelerate out quicker.

would love suzuka, monza and spa, possibly istanbul as well.

that would really make lfs great

well, we shall wait





come on i wanna race!!!

Quote from Nard :

I seriously have no idea how rFactor can be considered to have a better physics engine. I actually TRIED driving it. But the cars don't respond at all like I'd expect them to. Just trying to do a quick jerk of the wheel to avoid some crap on the track, the cars respond so slow it's weird. Everything feels heavy.

And to answer to everyone going "omfg LFS needs more content", you know, I think you haven't grasped what racing is about. Racing is about getting faster and faster, and being faster than the people you are racing against. I'd be happy with XFG and XRG, as the racing with excellent drivers is always so much fun.

I'd need only one track, and one car to drive, and it still would be interesting. because racing is only about beating your own limits. Even in RL, racing is about knowing your car, not trashing it, and being a slick driver. You don't ask for more tracks or more content, you just ask to drive shit as fast as possible down whatever track is thrown at you. if I had access to only one circuit, I'd still be there every weekend to burn some rubber.

racing cars are heavy arent they?!

yer its fun, but i think its nice to be able to have a selection of cars from real life and fanstasy to drive. dont you think? im not questioning qwhat racing is about, just whjat i love to race with.

dont get me wrong i love lfs, but i dunno lol

oh yer, the problem with the delays steerring is, u have to change the settings of the wheel in game. once done its great.

Quote from Boris Lozac :

I don't know what you meen by REAL there.
I just can't get the hang of it, every car feel so dull, i don't get any information from the steering wheel, the Force Feedback in ISI could aswell be called "Vibration" because i really don't get any FEEDback, just some vibrations..

it looks more real then, and yes force feedback is everyones compliaint about rfactor which they are working on apparently.

in rfactor it looks better, and sounds better, and i personally think the physics are better too.

Quote from al heeley :

Name an online racing/driving game better than LFS?
Where are all these great new racing games that drive us all away from LFS?
Not come across any yet.

rfactor

i love lfs, but i prefer rfactor simply because it feels more real, the graphics are immense and you can play with so many mods which just jkeep coming and rolling in, which are real. also playing on the worlds greatest circuits.

i think lfs nees to break away from being all fantasy stuff. apart from the BF1 which is a step in the right direction.

but i love both, but i play rfactor more as i personally prefer.

just got one, steering axis not working in installation setup. help?

Quote from Cue-Ball :

People who want to ruin others races don't need false starts to do so. This is why we have a ban system and registered usernames.

There are "noobs" in every other racing game too, and those games seem to manage just fine. Those of us who want this feature shouldn't have to go without because of the possibility that a few bad apples might not be able to hack it.

To paraphrase a great quote by a great man: "Those that would give up a little realism for a fewer wrecks will soon find they have neither".

well, some dont get banned, i play alot of games online although i now only play 2, ive experianced a lot more noobs on lfs than any other. i dont know why this may just be how luck has it

every time i connect to a server there is someone who is prepared to ruin a race either because they are a wrecker or because they get fustrated for what ever reason.

i would like false starts dont get me wrong, i just dont want to have to out up with another issue

OK. basically im all for the relalism etc. but people who like to disrupt and mis bahave will chance on this to ruin it for others even more.

Quote :

That's like saying, why do the tracks have first turn? "The noobs" will just ram everyone in T1...

not really. obviously there has to be a race track to race on nothing can be don about this, but if we can prevent other areas for people to misbehave and disrupt game sthen we should, the start system works fine now. i would like it to be more realstic, but there are too many "noobs" on lfs for this to work imo.

as for the poeple moaning about rolling down hills, this is a factor in real motorsport, the solution is to hold the brake until the lights go green

false starts will give the noobs another place to wreck, it happens and it will happen, the only way around it imo opinion is to spectate them if they false start, but then this is going to be very annoying for the people who happened to make a mistake, and its not realistic which is going back to the first point

we will just go round and round in circlers with this debate, we wont be able to make lfs releastic in starts unless we can get rid of all the noobs.

have you got a decent set up as well? setup is everything on lfs.

i was always told by people its the driver, dont listen to them, thee are limits in how fast you can go with certain setups. i was struggling a lot round blackwood until someone at last gave me a decent set, automatically went a second quicker than my PB in 3 laps.

keep it up, but thats not an FZR Good work m8.

well, ive seen mny f1 drivers spin on warming up laps, montoya, albert park one example

can somebody tell me what vsyc is and how i turn it off, ive been advised to do this for rfactor but dont know how. would also like to do it here if it helps

i can set up a car to a certain point, but im not able to master it. i always looka t other pople setups to determine mine or i just use thiers. this way i can be wuick.

i tend to find after a few runs i can easily adapt to a set up, whether its fast or not, i find i can get the most out of it to my limits, whilst learning other characteristics like the track and the car itself.

i would welconme this idea with open arms simply because of the people who spend hours or the teasm that have the fastest sets, that dont share. this makes it almost impossible for us drivers who dont have as good understanding of how to set a car up, to be quick.

the default thing imo, after a few runs or however long you take, everyone wil et used to the set eventually.

Quote from the_angry_angel :

If it really only happens between certain times, its extremely likely to be an issue with your ISP/network being "overloaded".

i am looking into this, however i thought i would just add to whatis happening to see what people come up with, being that im onmly 16 i have to get dad to find out and hes not very heful with this

Being a wire, they're the opposite of wireless.

yes but does this plug into the wireless router or do i have to scrap it completely?

Edit: infact i this is not a probelm for me has the wireless roputer is connected to my pc. seems that it is connected using this patch cable. so...

Quote from SparkyDave :

Yes Wireless can be bad because many many things influance and interfere with the signal, a patch cable will always be better

SD.

what is a patch cable? pls explain are they for wireless routers?

windows firewal, i doubt this is the problem thought as this only happens between certain times.

more info on this problem for me. the lag meter for me goes up and up until it disconnects me. so is this a lag issue when the server is busy or full? it only seems to happen when servers are full. any help?

would like to see this skin for trhe fzr

Quote from TyresHot :

Quote from whitford :
