Can do it from graphics card driver aswell.

L4D2 is free today, so expect Steam to be dead for 24 hours.

Quote from Bmxtwins :

Braking is slightly too sensitive with lock ups. I'm on the CSR Elite load cell pedals, barely push half force and I get uber lock ups.

Set brake gamma (curve) to 1.00 (straight linear line), using that with my ClubSport V2's which also uses load cell and it feels perfect.

Found the E92 drift spec to be a pretty good match for Silverstone.

Also, why would it be wrong for KS to ask money for content DLC while the game is still being developed? We've been paying Scavier for S1/S2/S3 content stages for years and LFS sure as hell is far from a finished game.

KS stated that the Ring wouldn't be released until the base game is fully functional with the intended content pushed out anyway, so no problems there.

There's just so goddamn much stupidity going on regarding this track, it's quite unbelievable.

Quote from Krane :

I recall somewhere seeing a price of 25 000€ for an official license... Pretty costly for indiedev, they need to recoup the costs somehow.

Yeah, that sounds about right, I think I remember a thread where people planned self-licensing the ring for LFS. And that's just the cost of the track license, laser scanning such a huge track is going to cost a metric f*ckload of money too.

Whatever this ring DLC pack is going to cost, it's going to be a bargain in comparison.

Quote from ratrug101 :

Whether AI and MP will be out before remains to be seen.

Gee, what do you think?

Devs announce worlds first laser scanned Nordschleife, receive two pages of moaning. I expected nothing less from LFS Forum.

Personally, I'm gonna drive the shit out of that track when the time comes. To think someone actually thought it was going to be free...

Supposedly the announcement isn't AI or multi related... nurb or lambo?

Only 30" 16:10 center fits "perfectly" with 20" 4:3 side monitors in portrait-landscape-portrait, 27" 16:9 supposedly looks somewhat ok with 19" 4:3 sides but it's far from tidy.

Also, PLP means no native Surround or Eyefinity support, so you're at the mercy of SoftTH or stretched windowed modes. That's the reason why I ended up ditching my 20-30-20 PLP setup, it's just too much of a headache compared to matching screens with modern games.

Need HDR to be turned on for headlight glare.

This sums it up for the F40, even in AC: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3MDTcXGsjuo

It's fantastic, I want that car so badly. Now where's that 500K...

Never buy unless daily/flash/community sale OR the last day.

I thought it actually looked pretty decent, especially considering it's obviously work in progress AI.

Got a trading card worth 4 euros just by voting in the flash sales, bought the Bioshock 1 + 2 bundle with it, thanks Steam.

Quote from J.B. :

Or could it be that my old DFP is just too sluggish to give me enough feel for AC?

In a word, yes.

Given how much wheels have improved since 2003 when the DFP was released, it stuns me that people are still using something that is way too numb and slow compared to the driving pleasure that modern wheels offer. G25/G27 is what I'd think of being the current standard of affordable wheels, T500 and CSW being in the enthusiast tier.

Turn off vsync and aim to get 100 FPS, it does wonders to the controls.

The F40 is sex, spent couple of hours with it. I just wish my CS V2 pedals would arrive already, I think the car would really benefit from a load-cell.

Quote from isamu :

LOL wut? Have you played GT6? The graphics are ass. They're worse than GT5. Aliasing everywhere, tearing everywhere, and constant frame drops during cockpit view. They're putrid.

TIL hardware performance issues = bad graphics. illepall

AC has potential to look great and equal/better to GT6, but only if the HDR system will be given some love so it's less performance hungry and its brightness settings are tweaked. Now it's sometimes way too dark and sometimes blindingly bright with HDR/motion blur on.

The reflections also beg for some supersampling, otherwise there's always some horrific aliasing going on.

Virtual head movement via tracking already works with TrackIR, propably with the Rift too. It just needs more resolution, as the virtual head currently only moves in two steps and in horizontal axis only.

Quote from Mysho :

Nordschleife

I sure hope so, that's what I first thought too!

Quote from e2mustang :

this game has nothing to do with simulation

Because keyboard is the ultimate simulator controller, isn't it...

Nice Fern Bay you got there.

Quote from The Very End :

I have no doubt you can race on the ring, but I think with it's abnormal size it would just end up beeing a lonely race. Unless you have a grid with like 50-60 cars or so.

I don't agree, the best races I've had at the ring have been with no more than 3-4 players and most often with slow stock cars like AE86. From what I've seen with RF, high player counts often just lead to messy races, as you have people driving who haven't bothered learning the track before racing there, and that's where the ring differs to other tracks. Anyone can race at shorter tracks as they're quick and easy to learn, but the ring requires time and practice before you can race on it without being a hazard to everyone else.

Like Moose said, the track requires patience, if the drivers know their stuff (both driving and track wise) then the racing is also very good.

Why can't you race at the ring? Because it's not airport runway wide? Real life 24 hour endurance racers don't seem to complain too much about it...

TBH, I've had awesome races at the ring in Forzas and Turismos, can't see what the fuss is about, this track must happen.
