Quote from JO53PHS :I find that the AA that I can adjust in the NVidia control panel is much better than the in game AA. It lops ~20fps off my FPS, but it is worth it. LFS generated AA looks crap in comparison.

I didn't know this so I tried it. Set everything on and at max in the Nvidia control panel's 3D settings tab, and I only notice an FPS decrease from 100-120 to 40. I think the ingame settings look fine.

LOL with the going rate of the cars currently it's either a BMW or an '08 Raceabout.

Quote from Kristjan.J :He's not against cruising, but LFS is a racing simulator.

I never said he was against it, I just said that it's a racing sim, not a drifting or cruising sim.

Quote from Ricerguy :and overall driving pleasure of the car

Driving and drifting can be very different things. I've heard Scawen's opinion on cruising and his simple reply was that this is a racing simulator. I completely agree. Not a drifting simulator.

Could compete with the XRR/FXR/FZR. Would be pretty sweet imo.

EDIT: Or a stupidly underpowered RWD version could compete with the UFR/XFR
Shift+U mode not cursor based

I as a video editor find it quite annoying in Shift+U mode when you right click turn, and you hit the edge of the screen with your invisible cursor. The camera stops rotating, and the shot looks terrible and needs to be reshot. I think when right clicking the cursor should constantly be in the centre of the screen.
Think of it like a first person shooter. You don't stop rotating if you need to see an enemy behind you, because your cursor is in the centre of the screen, constantly. You could do endless 360's if you had the desk space.
Next car?

I heard somebody say on that drift server that it was more realistic, but I've never drifted in real life so I wouldn't know. I'm using a G25 with 540 and it's MUCH easier for me at least. I haven't tried hot hot tyres.
Patch Z = Easier to drift?

I know that Patch Z has improved car handling, but I assumed that would be for racing purposes. In Patch Y I didn't have a chance at drifting, but I just hopped on a drift server for fun and actually did well on some corners. Patch Z, or better car control on my part?

A big chunk of that is mental state. I know it really shows in CS: S, so I'm sure it has an impact in LFS. If you get pissed off, or frustrated in CS, you keep getting owned and owned. It's all mindset, and if you play for fun and don't care about dying (or in LFS case, losing) you can keep a clear mind and play a lot better.

EDIT:
Quote :Alot of my old buddies I used to play CS:S with often told me after not playing for a week or two, they come back and they're playing better than before they stopped.

LOL. I read your post after posting mine and thought it was funny you mentioned Counter-Strike.

Quote from JO53PHS :I see no point. It's not really a WR, just a hot lap that no-one has bothered to beat yet

Yes it is. Nobody has ever done a hotlap on that combo with that setup with that modified car. Therefore you're the only one in the world. Therefore it's a world record.

Jack managed to reply to my post but didn't bother to add me to the list.

Keep looking. And it is hard to make skins. And for an American you really need to learn how to spell.

Quote from bandaid :- New interiors in XF and XR cars (road and GTR)
- Updated interiors in Formula XR and Formula V8
- General improvements to interface and graphics
- Improved weight distribution of GTR racing cars
- XR Turbo and RB4 suspension improvements
- Replay controls (click any point on time line)

Interiors. Worthwhile? Nope. Not imo.
Interface and graphics increase? Not noticed.
XRT and RB4 improvements. Not noticed.
Replay controls. Good.
GTR improvements. Good.

Still not new cars, still not new tracks, still not what matters to attract people to this great game.

EDIT: And thanks for telling me everything I already I know.

Quote from major_syphillis :I'm sure that is why LFS is packed during the evening USA time.

No doubt. I even heard they were working on a new track! Either that or Albanian translations, three guesses which one.
Something worthwile?

Nah, forget that topic title. I'm happy with the Japanese and Bulgarian translations.

Quote from lawdog :a high powered rallycross car with downforce. Why is this easy? Just give the FXR some extra suspension travel and allow knobby and hybrid tires on it. Voila! Instant rally car.

Best idea I've seen here.
