prepare your eyes for this saturday

Either you have an informant on the inside, or that was just spooky.

Quote from Scawen :

I asked Eric but he doesn't want to show South City screenshots yet.

He's been working on it, changing all the road surfaces and building some ways through that were blocked off before. It's not just the roads but barriers, fences, walls, etc. And many buildings will be updated.

It's a big job but will be worth the wait.

South City is worth waiting for. Go nuts with it Eric! CityDriving has been waiting for this moment for its entire existence!

That's exactly it, and yes it can be annoying sometimes when I send half a sentence by accident.

If you don't want to reassign the space bar, maybe require a press and hold over the OK and Cancel buttons for 500ms. Maybe visualise this with a progress ring around the crosshair.

I wanted to make a thread about being able to customize the mapping for the VR Click (currently space). Every time I'm typing while leaning over my wheel I'm accidentally pressing OK, Cancel or special characters on the "T" text entry window because I'm pressing space to start a new word. To avoid it I have to deliberately look down while typing which is annoying during a situation where you need to focus on the road and type.

I should do that.

I can't attend round 1 sadly, but I'll try and make the rest:

LFSW name: MButcher
In-game name: [TC-R] Pete
Ful team name: [TC] Racing
Nation: United Kingdom

Ultimately we weren't able to have the final race showdown we were all looking for, but that being said, this series has potential going forward into future seasons once the bumps are ironed out. Thanks for hosting and I'm looking forward to the next one.

Thanks for the season-long battles folks, hope to see you at the next one too.

Argh.

Damn, that's major and looks awesome! Fingers crossed for you that it works out and you get to realise those designs.

I assume for a small number of rigs rather than the whole fleet? Otherwise, that's a huge coffee shop!

Quote from k_badam :

I don't think demo racing deserves special treatment from any other type of pick-up racing, hard racing should happen.

Racing is racing is racing. In my experience, drivers at the head of the field in demo races are just as aware, if not more so than those at the front in licenced races, so racing like this shouldn't be complained about.

That move is legit. Needed a bit of cooperation from the other driver, but the move itself was fair I'd say. Good pass.

Quote from MicroSpecV :

Come on Simox too! He's the one tussling it out with you

I was referring mainly to Trespasser's fighting talk in the news post. I'm sure SIMOX will be pushing too.

Quote from michal 1279 :

That pitlane was epic but the risk of possible heavy collision between cars exiting pitlane and cars on the racing line was very nightmarish

I can think of a few examples, especially Tilkedromes that have pitlane exits like that so it's not unthinkable. It's hard to tell from the screenshots, but there's definitely some sort of paddock setup happening on that straight towards the end of the 'North' infield.

Neat. Come on Tres, show me what you've got.

I spot a new S/F line in the infield. Did Kyoto 'North' make it to official combo status? Fingers crossed for that.

Grats Simox!

I won't be able to make the next race either because reasons, but should make the final three rounds no problem.

Apologies for the savage lunge out of the swimming pool Texas. At the time I thought it felt like a good move, but having reviewed the replay, it was opportunistic and I could've been more patient and waited for another corner.

There was a good deal of luck involved in my win today, but I enjoyed myself immensely, cool little track. Sadly I'll miss the next 2 races, but I hope I can still fight for the championship by rounds 8 and 9. Cheers!

Quote from Botswanan Salama :

*Snip*

Are you going to race this weekend? Please say yes!

Quote from michal 1279 :

The post-race activity on the server was phenomenal

It was like SO2R all over again.

Bonus points to @degats for being the only person to get it right first time. (Presumably from seeing the pile up)

Quote from ltras23 :

Appologies to both [TC-R]Adam and [TC-R]Nick for the contacts that happened. I lost composure after unsuccessfully tried to pass [TC-R]Pete several times when i realized you both were becoming quite near and my strategy had been compromised. Untimely pit stop happens which proven disastrous as there wasn't sufficient time to be still ahead of both of you and i started to panic which only makes matter worse. Well deserved.

Sorry it took me post race to say this since I didn't get the chances to say due to the commotions after checkered flag. The rather gloomy and flame war atmospheres didn't feel right and I need time to calm down.

Ultimately, your undoing was not pitting during the SC. You had the pace to win. I enjoyed our scrap, but I couldn't get myself together after the SC restart and was making tonnes of mistakes.

Nice write up. I've got it all to do now to challenge for the championship. Bring it on.

That was frustrating. Rift software crashed and LFS crashed with it. Pitty, I was enjoying my fight back to the front. Apologies to Katila for that tap, misjudged where you were going to brake and that was that.

Quote from Matrixi :

Wouldn't be able to tell it's wireless from the latency.

Some very minor compression artifacts at 30 Mbps in darker shadow'y areas, also tried 70 Mbps but started to notice slight latency even with H265. 30 Mbps is more than fine for sim racing in any case.

Planning to get a Valve Index at some point, the launch price is bit too steep for my wallet.

That's very interesting.

I'm tempted by the Valve Index, but I can't warrant it when I get such a good experience for the price I got my Rift for.

Quote from Matrixi :

Not sure if there's a separate VR test thread, but I tried U6 with Oculus Quest wirelessly using SteamVR emulation (ALVR) and LFS works beautifully, flawless 6 DOF tracking.

For real? How's the latency?

That's rotten luck... A stadium without decent access for trailers, that's wild. Your setup looks really professional, can't help but think it could do with a poster stand or two though to give punters something to lure them in or advertise the name and logo of your venture. You might already have one, I just haven't seen one in your videos.

I hate to see you struggling to realise the full potential of this... I hope your luck changes.
