Today, I was a little bored, so I decided to test my Photoshop skillz
I went to my dds folder, and looked through the LFS textures, and found one, which even I could modify So, after completing it (took me about 1,5 hour [i did everything from a scratch ! + iam a photoshop noobie ] ) I thought I will post it here, so I can get some feedback !
You can see what I modified on the preview pic (1st part is the original texture, and the 2nd is what I present here )
Feedback welcome !

ps:maybe i'll post here some other small texture mods also

EDIT : Fixed the problem SamH mentioned
Uploaded the new dds + a new compare image

A long time ago, in a galaxy far far away ...
I firs tried out the S1 demo, which was on a CD of a PC magazine (either Score or Level /Czeh pc magazines) , but back than i had an AMD K6-2 500 MHz with an old Riva TNT , so LFS didn't look good on it I didn't like the way it was controlled, it was way too real for me , as until than I only saw NFS like games . Deleted the game, went back to play small oldie games, which ran quite good on my ol' rusty PC ( X-COM FTW !! )
In August 2004 I finally got my new PC ( but it was the last day of august, just imagine how hard it was for me to go next day to school ) . In september i moved to college so I played only at weekends when I was home.
In November I moved back home, as I didn't like the college, so i decided to travel every day 2 hours to school by bus (1there,1home :P ). It was a lot better for me, because at least I could play 1-2 hours every day.
One day I found a german PC mag in the newspaper store and because it was very cheap and had a DVD enclosed, i bought it (i cannot speak German ). When I tried the DVD at home, and looked through the demo section, i found LFS. "Hmm, how could it look on my new hardware ? " I thought, and installed it. It looked a much better, and I found out that it could be controlled by mouse :O (never saw such a thing ) . But after a short while my enthusiasm fell :P as I was too noobish for the game. But than something happend, i found that little button named MULTIPLAYER . "... with my Dial up connection :S ... hell, lets try it " So i went online, downloaded patch H and connected to a server. "WOW, it works!!!" It was my first online experience, and oh God, it was so great ! I even met hungarian player, and they helped me , and since than we are friends ( some of them are even my team mates ^^ ) .
So thats how I discovered lfs

Not a bad suggestion, but You could just find the last obsolete replay in the Replay screen, remember it's name, than quit to windows, go to the data/mpr folder, arrange files by date of last modification, and then move the files older than the replay U remembered :P
I for example have 2 versions of LFS installed, so I can view some older replays, if I want to

@Dajmin
U already can sort the replays by name or date, so finding the recent race is not a problem ^^ . But when You have a pile of replays and You want to chose from them , than it is hard to guess wich one You need (mainly because if you click one, LFS starts to load the track -_- )
A few suggestions to make life easier :)

So, lets get to the point

1. Sometimes I find it very hard to see through my replays. That is mosty because I name them like "asd,roflmao,omgcrash" and so (99% because i realize that i need to save the replay only when a big text appears on my screen > Restart : 3 ... ) . But even if I name them correctly i just can't remember where that race took place, and who was there . So what i suggest can be seen on the attached picture .

2. When i want to make an LFS movie, it is really hard to do what i imagine in my mind . I would really love to see a lot more options, so you can do anything with the camera(s) [that (s) is there because i would like to see also PIP ! Placing a few custom cameras and then view them all in one time on one screen :P ] . Things like centered movement of the camera pointing to one car ( remember Matrix 1 , when Trinity makes a kick in the air, time slows down and the camera goes 360° ), option to attach the camera to certain parts of the car (well mostly to the steering wheel, so when the driver steers, the camera rolls :P ) , "virtual flight thingy" (people with joysticks could fly with the camera, making it easier to roll/tilt it) , and the last thing (as i can't remember anything else ) would be the shaking of the camera, when a car passes by it at high speed .

3. A very simple yet very needed thing ... password manager !!! It is just simply annoying, when you have to remember 10+ passwords, and type them in each time you wanna go to a private server :/

Well, thats all for now, but i'll post here if anything else comes to my mind
Hope everything was clear and understandable, if it wasn't, then please, forgive me.

Thank You for reading !

LFS need a 100% bulletproof protection system, because if more cheaters/hackers come, they will ruin the game Just look what hackers made to the game MU Online :/

I think that we need to respect each other. No need to like somebody you don't want to like, but there has to be respect. A long time ago most of the people respected each other, even enemies, but now, times are changing ... or maybe it is too late and iam pessimistic again (hope i wrote it right :o )
So, remember Ali G ,ReSpEcT

Don't shoot them pls :P I like to listen to them both, but mostly Eminem. Some of his lyrics are so funny (example :"...50 told me to do sit ups to get buff, I did 2 and half and couldn't get up..." [My band]) .
