While your ping is usually high Nova, it's also normally very stable. Problems arise from unstable pings. I've had terrible races with people with relatively low pings because their ping fluctuated a lot.

That. Is. Dope.

I recently upgraded to the GT Omega PRO cockpit. I run a rift but you can probably see why I want to get on the Ultra-wide bandwagon (images attached).

This thread came at a good time. I'm also considering getting a 49" monitor because I would like the option to use a monitor setup from time to time, rather than having to use VR, even for casual racing sessions. I do not get on well with traditional multi-monotor setups, so I'm interested in trying an extra-wide. It's a big expense so I'm interested to get opinions from people who have used them. Rony, nacim, how do you get on with yours?

It's not overthinking, rather the vast majority of people overlooking these missing details. You raised some good points.

I actually forgot about Y being the other direction, fair point Dave. Maybe we need Z Wink

Quote from racer autov8 :Maybe someone suggested something similar already but here's an idea:
Have the extra items on X configurations and don't have them on Y configurations.

This.

The point of 0.5F2 is that the LX8 exists in this version already though, without needing to shoehorn it into a 'more stable patch'.

Probably the latter. The car is fairly unrefined but it's good to have a version of the game available with older layout versions, and the ability to use them online from time to time.

Sorted, thanks!

Coincidentally, I also fancied trying the old Kyoto in 0.5F2 2 days ago and wasn't able to connect to the master server. I thought the master server had been turned off intentionally, so paid it no mind.

I wish you'd have hidden the UI (SHIFT+F) in that last video and sat a bit higher in the grandstand! Kinda funny though.

Well then, anyone up for reenacting the multistorey car chase in Tomorrow never Dies when this gets released? Wink

Looks like there's lots still to do but it looks promising!

On the topic of VR, if you're still on the fence, I did an opinion piece a while ago that might be of interest: https://www.lfs.net/forum/thread/92074

The bloom effect on the dot matrix is actually fairly realistic, at least for my eyes. I find dot matrices on motorways and on kart tracks at night have quite significant bloom. Maybe I'm overdue an eye test...

It's really simple, if you're passionate about Sim Racing, invest in more sim software until LFS satisfies you again. I've got so much time, effort, blood, sweat and tears invested into LFS that I will always have one eye on threads like these to see how things are progressing because I want it to return to the forefront of Sim Racing. Am I sad that LFS is not developing as quickly as I'd like? Of course I am, who wants to wait years between major updates. Will LFS ever be at the forefront of Sim Racing again? Who knows. But these questions aren't stopping me from enjoying my Sim Racing. It just means that for the past few years I've been putting hours into iRacing instead and returning to LFS for the odd racing series when I feel like it. When the updates come, whether that happens in 12 months or 12 years, people will return, even if it's just to try out the new features. If we experience the spike in activity that the Westhill update brought, I think LFS will do just fine going forward, in its own special way. That's good enough for me.

I wonder how many demo users have ever bought skin credits. Might make for an interesting stat.

Quote from cargame.nl :Insim controllable LED array color changing track panels would be awesome

I hope that the digi-flags (I think Blackwood is the only track to have them at the moment) will eventually display yellows in a sector, blue and red flags etc.
