Cut my stream down to include just quali and the race.

Cheers for hosting!

@Nova, can you use the [TC-R] tag in the standings please? Thanks!

Rats, can't make it. iRacing Le Mans 24 hour this weekend.

I always put LFS' ffb down to the tracks, they're way too smooth. The only reason iRacing's ffb feels better is because the tracks are all laser scanned and the bumps and dips are much more noticeable. This isn't to say LFS' force feedback is bad, take the updated Blackwood for instance, at the end of the straights where it's bumpy, the ffb is actually working quite well.

Just me?

Seems the infield has had a fair bit of re-profiling, only really noticeable from the comparisons.

Scawen, you mentioned there's an option to set a fixed time, have you considered a time multiplier too to speed up (or slow down I guess), the passing of time?

Quote from michal 1279 :

I see some new chalk lines, assuming there will be chicanes in that place - Will be they used in KY2/KY3, or will these tracks stay as they are and chicanes would be part of new track configurations?

Hopefully the latter.

Looks great, keep it up!

it will take a little time for your brain to "reprogram" itself. My 70 year old dad was the same using his for a short while but soon got used to it

I'd be interesting to know if age was actually a factor. It took me some time to get used to VR. The process of feeling comfortable enough in VR to race in LFS took quite a while too.

Quote from Scawen :

It would be cool if TC would try out the new DCon, so we'll know if there are any problems with the new lag recovery system.

What does this new lag recovery system do and when? Will its effects be noticeable?

Quote from Bmxtwins :

I bought a cheaper WMR headset for $100 and it’s been working great. Haven’t tried on LFS though.

I was really impressed with the HP WMR headset when I tried it with LFS. The VR experience was comparable to the Rift or Vive in LFS so people on a budget should not overlook the WMR range.

For the record, I still think the Rift offers the best VR experience in LFS.

Quote from Flotch :

I like the discrete mention of summer regarding the gif ^^. Seasons to come? Imagine driving on tracks with the current season

"Winter in the Arctic circle mode": 24 hour darkness.

Look at this - Luka pulled an UM21!

Except UM21 would be able to hold it for 43 laps.

...let's just call it long-term hype...

That's what it is to me. You can get fancy graphics, real cars, real tracks, day/night and other bleeding-edge features in other sims, but it's always LFS that gets me hyped when I see even a modicum of progress, even if there's no fixed release date.

Oh my...

*Screams internally*

Quote from LOXISLOXIS :

Hello guys when will the new autocross version be released?

While this is the incorrect thread to be asking that question, the answer is: No one knows for sure. For discussions related to the new Autocross version, please see: https://www.lfs.net/forum/thread/92883-Graphics-Progress-Report%3A-Autocross

*snip*

I was thinking the same about whether any permission was sought to bundle and publish the snap package.

Quote from Amynue :

Hell yeah bro it's almost 2019, we need Battle Royale mode and loot boxes with .vob mods in them

We're running a Battle Royale event tomorrow, with an InSim and all

Quote from Cote Dazur :

I could not find a LTH setting, I drive in VR and this is very important to VR driver.
Please don't bother answering if you are not a VR driver or just to say you don't need LTH.

The VR in LFS is quite superb, great FPS, the real mirrors are outstanding, the new shader are very nice, all that is missing now is LTH.

Is there a workaround?

I'm a VR driver and I'm pretty sure LTH would make me quite ill. Forbin is right, your frame of reference should be locked to the car, not the outside world and so such a feature is not needed, or even wanted in my case.

Was anyone else silently wishing an upgraded Autocross would have a disused runway on it somewhere?

I like the changes to Autocross and I'm interested to see how much of it is actually drivable.

I won't be able to make it again unfortunately. This year is your year Jared.

Do you have an LFS cookie cutter? 3D printed?

Happy Xmas Troy!

This is a known issue, one that irritates me too: https://www.lfs.net/forum/thread/91904-VR-graphics-issues

Put simply, it's believed to be down to LFS' physics refresh rate (100Hz) getting out of sync with VR headsets @90Hz.

Hi Gab, nice collection you have there, are these still for sale? If so, what sort of condition are they all in and how far are you willing to ship them?

Damn, that's fortunate. Well done! So how'd it go with the organisers, were they impressed enough to retain you do you think?
