This (bug?) was always in lfs as it seems, but became more obvious after w33 - "First lap time of qualifying or practice is not displayed". On reverse configs practice lap timing never began on the first lap(unlike on normal configs). Now on your outlap from the pits it says "1" and starts timing on the second lap on normal configs, but on reversed ones the outlap from pits is "nothing" or "0th" lap, then the second lap is 1st and only on the 3rd the clock starts
(it happens because "1" lap starts only when the car crosses s/f line while driving through the pitlane, but that depends on the position of the starting garage relative to the s/f line - is the garage before or after it)

p.s. sorry if it is supposed to be so...

Quote from AndroidXP :

The point is, in the screenshot neither practise nor qualify are selected, and it still doesn't allow to add AI

yep, you're right, should have looked closer

SpikeyMarcoD, I think that's because now practice starts from the
pits and so the AI will be available only in race... nvm if that's not the case

hi,
I have a problem saving an alpha channel so that it works ingame:
i use dds plugin in psp8, open dds file, edit it, set the transparency and no matter what settings I choose in that dds saving panel, I still get non transparent background in lfs (and when I reopen that saved dds again in psp or other app - the transparency isn't there too...)
so what settings should I use excactly for alpha to work/get saved correcty ?

sorry, if this is old or if it belongs in cars section, but take a look...
that xrg is actually standing still in SO1 and as u can see wheels do not touch the road surface but float in the air just like in most rfactor mods
of course this can clearly be seen only from such angles so I don't know about other cars and tracks yet - will give them closer look...

Here is another 'pro'

(it's simply amazing how strong carbon fiber body structure is - seems like the main body/suspension geometry wasn't damaged)

btw: as was said, that wasn't m3 in the 'ring record video' (probably 325)...

Now this Ultimate XRT (preset by squidhead) gets new rims fitted
IMO, it's really great that we are getting "real" tuning for LFS cars in the form o these apps... (by real I mean performance tuning and sport/racing style wheels - NOT some ricing crap)

hope i'm posting in the right place now

as work is being done to the controls system/saving, i thought i would make a request for improvement in digital control of accelerator, brake and clutch:
would be great to have three separate sections of "control rate" for these pedals. even better - each of those "sections" having two values: "rise rate" and "fall rate" (such thing is well implemented in RBR for example which let me drive competitively even with kb there)
if that can be done, it'd make mousers' (me being one of them) life a lot easier as taptaptaping mouse buttons for entire race doesn't help to be smooth and consistent

Good to know that LFS is improving all the time and tnx for your work ScaViEr

forum stats back agian... and there are 856 racers online... waiting...

Quote from Taavi(EST) :

about that BMW test track, well i found something with google earth...

although fun for top speed quests, that would be pointless for racing...
if there really gonna be an RL track, it's definitely one where BMW F1 is beeing driven, tested or hopefully raced - nurbie gp was already mentioned

About the update pic of today, i think its nice if the friendship is with BMW coz they probbly license some M5 or Z4 alpina, but thats coz im not a OW fan, ...

me agrees

Quote from Lampost22 :

oh ok, if u say so. I took that information from wikipedia and there id said

"Zum Ende der Formel 1 Saison 2005 hatten die besten Teams nach Ermittlungen eines unabhängigen Motoreningenieurs jedoch bereits wieder rund 925 PS bei 19.800 U/min erzielt."

meaning, that at the end of the 2005 season they already achieved more than 900hp.

and back in 1997 the had 750hp.

"Schon 1997 hatte man schon wieder das alte Niveau von ca. 750 PS erreicht, mittels Drehzahlen über 17.000"

illepall don't know what to believe now.

now in 2006 F1 again produces ~750 hp because due to new FIA regulations 2 of 10 cylinders have been chopped off (displacement decreased from 3.0 to 2.4)

Edit: shotglass beat me to it, oh well

if this is really the begining of LFS and BMW friendship (some sort of), then maybe road bimmers would be a possibility in the future...

Quote from Skyline_Drifter_ :

Maybe mignight Victor's time we get patch?

Same time zone NetDemon =D=D

and that would be the last deadline for today's update to stay "today's" and at the same time maximum torture used against poor forum rats...

but that's still the whole TWO HOURS

... that not many still believe that we gonna get the new daily update today (as the mega-growth of this thread had decreased) so let's admit it
p.s. it's almost midnight here - night meal time
