Woah, it really does look good - seems promising so far, atleast it looks better already than TDU2

Quote from Mysho :

Nice, I don't have x360 but I am jealous already.

Just a little reminder that all official screenshots are photoshoped.

Yeah I don't really like Forza's graphics, not to start a war but I prefer Gran Turismo's.

Anyone else excited for this game?!

TDU3 anyone? A shame it's unlikely to come out on PC

According to the site, which pulled the information from the latest issue of GamePro Germany, the game will maintain the physics from Forza 4, but optimized for off-road as there will be 65 types of terrain ranging from mud and gravel to grass and asphalt.

It’s an open-world racer with dynamic day and night cycles, and takes place in Colorado – as you can see via the screenshots below. Looks a bit like Route 550 to us.

The game will also contain gas stations, paint shops, car dealerships and players can race various vehicles in the game, including a plane.

According to Forza Life, the game is slated for release on October 23, 2012.

Expect more information on the racer Monday during Microsoft’s press event at E3.

Pictures can be found here,

Are you guys using NWM or 2.3.0 LE? And where are you getting your mods? Havent played this in ages but fancy getting back into it!

It's best to use 2.2.1 MWM - the one that you can get of Gom-team.

Here are all my cars and parts - I guess you know where to put them (once you have put the game in first :razz

Quote from Hyperactive :

After trying few cars with different tires I don't really feel any difference at all compared to what it was month or so ago. The cars still have that huge snap oversteer pendulum effect and the rears breaks out on corner entry with abs0 just like it has always done.

What changes are you actually feeling? I'm using fanatec wheel and the ffb is the same as well. Only change I can notice is that they have screwed the sound levels. When driving the cars are too silent while menu sound effects are loud. Yes I have adjusted the sound levels but the only way to make things bearable is to constantly adjust sound levels with remote ...

I'm using a G25, with the latest update the force feedback feels slightly stronger and just feels more responsive overall (can't really explain it tbh)

But it still doesn't give me much feel on the tyres, mainly just the weight transfer.

I haven't noticed any sound differences tbh though..

Quote from AndRand :

well, the CryEngine usage has been [post=1691652]discussed there[/post] also

But they are talking about the engine of Farcry 3, which isn't the CryEngine

Quote from AndRand :

to be perfect with cleaning effect you should include also Far Cry thread

This has nothing to do with Far Cry 3

Quote from troy :

So, there must be some more LFS'ers still interested in playing GT5 every now and then, what about some biweekly get together maybe on Wednesdays? Do some shuffle racing or whatever, I should have enough bandwidth for a full Server if needed.

That sounds good, wednesday at 6:30PM onwards? If there's any problems with you hosting it I can try - not too sure how well it would be as I'm in the UK though

The shuffle racing was good fun, although I'd like to try something like a 300pp, 450, 600pp race with sport:softs or sport:hards - with a full server that is.

If not shuffle racing works best for a lower amount of people

Quote from Kid222 :

Damn, that was exhausting. Vote for repeating, good fun it was. Hopefully next time more people join us.

Haha, a shame I went AFK and forgot I was in the lobby still, only got two races

The Yellow bird on sport hards was so slidey haha.. was funny when I jumped past you both

Quote from troy :

Kid and I decided it's time to do some online session again, I will start my host in a few minutes if anyone cares to join us.

I'll join you in about 20 mins, got my dinner

Quote from mp5cod :

Question guys.

Is it worth buying a 2001 honda civic - 135k miles - malfunctioning wheel-bearing - for 3,500? I was offering 2,500 cash but she won't budge.

Here are pics to show u what im working with.

and these are the flashy wheels its on.

How much would you offer?

Any advice would be appreciated

I wouldn't? For what reason is it worth even $3,500?

Yey I was right

Quote from Kid222 :

A is S1, B is S2. Shadows have spoken.

I'd agree, but where has the reflection gone of the wheel in image B?

Anyway I think this is a fairer comparison, images by Flame CZE

Last edited by lukelfs, Wed, 30 May 2012 21:03.

I'm gonna go with image 1 being S2 - due to the reflection on the centre of the steering wheel.

Although the trees and shadows are better in image 2..?

Which version of S1 are you using btw?

Quote from Flame CZE :

How can I invert my pedals? In controller mapping, no matter if I set them to negative or positive, they are always inverted in game :/

If you calibrate it so when it says,

Fully press on the pedal - if you don't press on it, click yes/next

Then when it says,

Release the pedal - fully press down on it.

At least that's what I did when I had the same problem

Quote from atledreier :

Then I think you are doing it wrong, sir.

I feel pretty much anything the car is doing. Depends on car, though. Sme cars are much better than others.

Right.. enlighten me on how I am 'doing it wrong'

I'm using a G25 and all I really feel through the wheel is the weight of the car. When ever it understeers I feel the exact same force through the wheel as it not understeering.

Nothing is telling me other than visuals what is happening to the car/tyres.. It just feels really plain and there is pretty much no feedback to the wheel unlike other sims..

Quote from atledreier :

What you lose while understeering is feedback, not overall force. I guess, to an inexperienced driver it can feel like a loss of overall force, but hook a torquemeter to the steeringrack and you'll see what I mean.

It really has nothing to do with real life tbh, it's more about when driving in other sims the force feedback is just a lot better overall.

In GT5 it just feels like a solid force on the wheel the whole time when driving no matter what the tyres are doing.

Quote from Mattesa :

Steering wheel lighten with understeer? I still don't believe that as a real phenomenon.

It's more of not actually being in the car so the FFB from the front wheels (especially on a FWD car) is lacking - at least compared to other sims.

Just gave the update a go, defiantly feels better to drive. But I still cannot feel what the tyres are doing - other than using the visuals as a guide.. there is no light feeling on the FFB at all

Quote from nikopdr :

forgot to thank you luke for the pack, saved me time from trying to download from GOM site. Altough I had to remove a few mods because I kept getting strange errors

a quick mx-5 i built

No problem

I guess that's SLRR for ya, errors on different computers lol.. you should try out some of the ENB series mods on Gom Team, or FXAA Tool

Quote from DannyBee :

I didn't want this to be my first post but hey-ho, does anyone have a working link for the v2.21 NWM patch? I keep getting redirected to this peice of crap download site and I'm going around in dead ends here. Thanks....

http://www.gamefront.com/files/21247760/SLRR2011_STAGE1.rar

Just click 'Download Now' then it should count down from 5 and then automatically start downloading

Quote from ATC Quicksilver :

I would be modding more cars, but I can't sell the ones I have due to the used car dealer crashing all the time.

Yeah mine crashes on the used dealership, it's a shame really because I don't mind buying used cars - instead I have to use the vehicle section in the catalogue and buy the chassis.

There is a money cheat if you want it lol.. enter 'begformoney' on the garage area and click the special tuning tool (screwdriver lol)

Quote from ATC Quicksilver :

I repair it, I had just won all the drag races and beaten the Green team, so I had the money. By the way I bloody love the engine I now have in this Mazda, swapped the crazy V6 for the performance Mazda engine, it revs like crazy.

Here is the car fully repaired...(I never want to crash, but I like to see how fast my cars will go, at the time of this crash I was doing over 200mph into a new section of the city, my frame rate died and I smashed into a car)

Ah right cool, tbh I only play the game to mod cars now.. had enough of playing the 'game' lol.

Yeah the Mazda engine is great, has a lot of detail and a few different mods, like a single turbo, twin turbo, supercharger or I believe ITB's..

Would love to make my own mods but tbh I don't know where to start lol

Quote from ATC Quicksilver :

I used Nitro for the first time, and I'm sure you will agree it was a complete success...

Lmao, do you repair the car or do you just sell it lol..

When ever I make a car I hate to crash it

Quote from nikopdr :

if you could post them as a separate upload, i'd appreciate it I already have MWM thanks :P

The cars and parts are in that file, the game isn't

Quote from Whiskey :

Windows 7 64 bits, running the game as admin (WinXP compatibility does not work neither).

My hardware is more than enough to run this game, even if it needed DirectX 11 hehe

I've just downloaded that file, and executed from the folder. Should I install the original game, and the paste this mod over it instead?

I also have Win7 64bit, I just run it normally, not as admin.

Right, I'm not sure tbh, I just downloaded the SLRR MWM Stage 1 and it worked perfect.
