I think it is a bad idea to not let silver and up licence holders on race1. If it is for the points as you say, you could give silver and up people less points but they should be able to race on any server they are licenced for.

I use interferno's as wel. Each time i have a different set, i should organise them better so i know what setups i prefer against others.

But ehm, a noob question. How do you send a setup?

Quote from russraine :Patch X is meant to allow 32 drivers on track, but most of the tracks still seem to report 20 drivers on Single player mode. Has anyone actually played with 31 other drivers on a server yet?

Yes. It can be very crowded. Could be the servers you play on have limited it to 20.

Quote from Aquilifer :In a race it would be annoying to see someone flashing his lights all the time. Are you making this program? Why don't improve it so that it flashes the lights with music? Here's another crazy idea: Make an app which updates the license plate every 10ms. That way we could have a scrolling text in the license plate!

And maybe a red moving LED in the hood that makes a wooz-sound (and a talking watch and turbo boost button)

Then we should have "No Fear" stickers for the backwindow to show we are not afraid for the laserbeams. And blue painted fire extinguishers with NOS written on top in the back seat for more speed.

I'm not offended with that skin, but if others are (and they are) i would not use it.

Quote from spankmeyer :Realistic this, realistic that, get a grip man. Pressing a button to look on your side is still more realistic than hovering behind your car or lying on the front axle of your plexi glass car.

You have two ears, steerlook option works great and which wheel doesn't have two buttons?

How do you know i have two ears? Yes i do, but i have only one speaker. Maybe we should ask for forced right speaker for all the sounds so other players don't have an advantage on me? I do have buttons on my wheel, but i use it for the miniguns on my bumper to shoot faster drivers.

No, i'm just kidding about that. And maybe i will try dashboard view more (and like it) but for now i prefer other views and that is the question in this topique. Just because i don't want to waste 50% of my view to a dashboard and don't like to use the buttons on my wheel. I do think i would like dashboard view when i had multiple monitors. What do you care wich view other drivers prefer?

In car view is nice when you have multiple monitors. Without extra buttons you can't see what is happening next to your car. That is not verry realistic, that you have to push a button on your dashboard to use your mirror or see wat is happening on your left or right side. I would be more pleased with a rearview mirror in chase view. Now i have to use the minimap to see what is happening behind me.

Quote from wark :Right. All we need is something similar to die nordschleife. Who says it can't be better? Only thing it would lack is nostalgia.

We have blackwood for Nostalgia.
Quote from madmak :In my opinion LFS will have the real tracks because someone will build LFS tracks in a real world They are so good.

Dahatsu allready started building UF1's so why not

Quote from Beldar :Ordered a new computer, but this is what im currently playing LFS on...
1.4GHZ Celeron
256MB
20GB
Nvidia Vanta 16MB...
Yes... it plays...

New computer I just ordered, currently shipping...

Barebones
Athlon 64 3800+ Dual Core- 2.0GHZ
1GB PC4200 DDR2 RAM
GeForce 6100 256MB PCI-E (temporary)

I got a dual layer DVD RW to go in it. 80GB HD and a copy of Windows Vista Ultimate. Controller? Mouse

I'm looking for something new too. I think i wait for the C2D 6750 from Intel.

I now play on:
XP 2000+
Radeon 9500
256 Mb ram
380 GB diskspace.

The original system is 7 years old, but i've upgraded it a few times. I have 512 extra memory but it won't work in this pc, so i want something new LFS still runs ok on it though.

Ow, most important part: Formula™ Force EX

Quote from chrissawyer21 :
The rounds will be like a karting style event. Each driver gets four heats and a final. The final will be 8 laps in the length and the heats will 4 laps.

Do you mean that each driver wil drive his laps alone? (like hotlapping?)

If you want new drivers you could put a max km online on it. (so drivers must have driven less then x miles/km online).

Quote from Chrisuu01 :I think it would be a good idea to have an intercom sytem i think it would be realy useful to sugest stradegy for teams mostly ore just have a fun talk while driving

Dunno, 32 drivers talking, some listening to music on their computer. That would be a lot of noise Team can use teamspeak for this.

Quote from harjun :Thank you Irish Man...i guess some people just DONT understand

You're right this time. SOME PEOPLE just don't understand. You did one lap and bumped off the first car in corner 1, second one in chicane and the third one after last corner then waited for people to crash in to them. Very clean racing dude.

Quote from Sponge :
As far as I know, different tyre compounds on a car is illegal in most (if not all) racing classes So I don't think LFS would get that...

my :twocents:

A lot of people do allready have different front and rear tires because soft tires on a front wheel driven car do great at the rear, but heat up too fast in the front. Is that iligal IRL?

Quote from deggis :Yup. Scawen just confirmed that. He said Monaco patch will be released next Saturday. He was sorry for not being able to do it sooner.

The patch will also include Nordschleife. Plus Le Mans, Spa and Laguna Seca.

And maybe new South City.

I've heard there is also a Skyline with NOS in development for demo.

I don't think that would work. Slower connections would lag more often and Joen has a good point about loosing controll of content the players put in the game.

An option could be the server (hosting a game) downloads the skins
once from LFS world and from then on supplies the players with that skins.

But the developers need to eat too. I think it's ok the look for other ways (other then selling licences) to make a living. As long as it's not going to be something like Xbox Live with a monthly fee to play online

You should use purple bullets. Purple rain, purple rain!
Quote from BlakjeKaas :[;-)]
D'oh, it's raining bullets, not men.
If it's raining men, the umbrella ella will save you.

The umbrella ella can do that for sure. But wait till you see what the umbrella ella ee ee can do.

you know when you played to much LFS when:
- You can't find your MRT in the parking garage
- You see a UF1 Cooper on your way home
- You're looking for the reset when you have a flat tire
