Personally I like those new curbs, I agree with anything that prevent people from literally cutting the first chicane to gain in lap time.

Omg! what an unexpected update! what I can say..., thank you LFS devs!

Hi Scawen, had a goosebump for a moment when I saw the test patch thread lol .

So no crash so far, but it seems like there is "holes" in the ambiante shadow under the car, near the tyres, also if you can make it darker because IMO it's still barely visible.

Quote from Eclipsed :

I'm wondering how legal this is. I mean - all the tracks are licenced content,accessible only for those,who have purchased LFS licence,now the guy offers the stuff for free,even if it's another environment.

I bet that no one know this track is from LFS.

Interesting, but it can look way more detailed with an up to date track like Westhill.

Some free advertise for the game wouldn't make any harm!

Give it to a demo user, I think an demo user will be much more happy with it than a licensed guy .

I think scawen allready has his list he want to do

Lately i bought assetto when it was on sale but I miss all kind off stuff we take for granted in lfs. Only graphics are better but LFS wins at rest.

Seems like the majority of simracing player base don't think the same as you.

Which explain why Scawen have to make progress on those things, if LFS was already perfect why would he go into a coding adventure if the software part is already perfect ?

You can use existing formula like from pacejka model if you get yourself stuck into another impossible problem, use it as a placeholder until you find a more efficient way to make the thing if its possible ofc.

It would be nice when you reach a playable stage with tyre physics development to start an open test patch for us to help you finding glitch and exploits that beta testers ignored or didn't found.

Nothing can be perfect, even the actual tyre model has some strange behavior which help players to get faster through an unrealistic driving technics, so I hope you will find a good compromise in a reasonable amount of time so you can bring a new life into LFS.

Thanks for your explanations Scawen, hope we can see the result of the new tyre modele asap.

Nice update, hopefully we'll see more similar features for immersion in the near future.

Very nice addition, it's those little details that make the sim more and more immersive .

No major bugs spotted so far.

Now some proper shadows and some new shaders for the track/cars and we can have an interesting looking game.

Thanks Scawen, I can't wait to see the improvements!

Congratulations, you got me hyped.

Don't please! or else I will jump too on the almost empty hype train!

I bet it's something about VR.

Quote from Scawen :

I am working on something.

Thank you, again.

Quote from Cote Dazur :

Driving looking at a flat 2D screen is more natural than driving using VR to you? Really? Thank you for making me smile .

Your life must be sad to smile at the preferences of others.

Got the weather.ini ! here a modified Natural graphics mod by ears1991 if any of you want to test.

Hey! someone can provide me with the default file system\cfg\weather.ini ?

Quote from Ped7g :

Once I put on my helmet and balaclava, it feels constrained in FOV a lot. It's definitely not the same as putting on VR head set, but having the limited FOV in VR feels to me quite natural, feels like race day on the track...

And about neck... turning around is least of your problem, it's just keeping the head straight/into corner, which hurts much more. Few laps with 2+G, and if you didn't ever train your neck, you will feel sore for few days...

But I prefer to use my eyes to see the mirrors instead of turning my neck all the time to expend field of view, it's more natural for me.

Quote from bishtop :

fanboyism may not fill servers but such comments that constantly put lfs down would only make them emptier. Great graphics should never become more important that physics in a racing sim so little things like interiors are not important and as for real tracks yeah they would be great if added but not essential

So explain why the server list have nearly 0 active racing servers ?

I think the major downside of VR is the limited FOV that force you to turn your neck so you can see around, I think triple screen solution is the best for longer session because it's easier and more confortable to use the eyes to see around compared to the neck which cab surely become tired.

Quote from RC-Maus :

I think many guys contribute

Thats why there are more servers then players

So servers owners must play the game instead of actually hosting ?
