come on guys, they're busy enough with managing this whole thing. I guess their point is to test out the starting procedure and prepare their SC drivers. You will all have 16hours to race tomorrow, that should be enough for everybody

Oh while you're at it, sorry for bothering you again, but i am also wondering at what point a lap is counted? At the end of sector 1 just like OLFSL?

Quote from socmaster88 :i really don't know atm if the lapper only counts full laps, but i think so.

Can anybody confirm that outlaps are not counted?

The Qual starts in a couple of hours

What settings to use in Vegas for HD Youtube Vids?

Hi there,

i recently bought some hardware and would like to start uploading LFS Videos on Youtube in HD Quality now.

I use the latest version of Fraps for recording in full resolution (1280x720) @ 30 FPS. My LFS is also set on 1280x720x16bit (32 bit is killing my fps really badly for some reason) with 8x anti-aliasing and 16x anisotropic filtering while recording.
I render the footage in Vegas Movie Studio Platinum 9.0 which is also configured to 1280x720(i ve tried all diferrent kinds of formats wmv,avi,mp4). Uploading the rendered footage on Youtube pretty much gives me the same result regardless of the format i choose.

The exact same file delivers a much nicer Quality on Vimeo.

However i'd like to use Youtube because its much more accesible for everyone.

Ive seen loads of incredibly high quality HD Vids on Youtube, l this one
and this one for instance.

i've seen lots of youtube tutorials on how to create HD Vids with Vegas. I've also read and adapted the "best formats for youtube" page on youtube itself.

Can you give me any hints on how to improve the quality on youtube?

Thanks in advance for any help.

Got the same Problem and had my teammates sending me the skins manually in order to fix it. Any word from the devs? I really depend on the skins for video editing

Welcome Morox

since we are close to the release of the Logitech G27, i'd buy the license first and wait for the G25 prices to drop. I think the G25 is gonna be very good value for money. However you really need both (License and Wheel), but you will be rewarded with hours and hours of endless fun

While we are on the subject Goo, any chance of a trade-in deal for G25 owners? ( i'm pretty sure this is not going to happen so this is a veeeeery naiv question, but it just have to ask)

Check out this thread if you haven't allready Goo. You're not gonna like most of the comments, but i guess you're eager about the communitys thoughts.

Oh and everybody there hates the fact it's got no sequential shift mode.

well we dont have a price for the G27 yet...it says 349 € here, who knows how much its going to cost in the shops.... so you cant really tell the price difference between the fanatec and the G27 yet

Quote from Bob Smith :Am I reading too much into the layout diagram, or does the clutch being connected to the H-shifter mean it physically won't let me shift without pressing the clutch?

Elderado - nice, but do the heater vents actually work?

Seems so Bob, if you watch some videos of it in usage your eyes are going to water! But just the idea of having to disassemble my wheel in order to plug it in and the fact that i'd have to pay a lot of money to Mrs. Merkel for toll and taxes and sh*t puts it out of the "to buy list" :irked:

oh and thank you for the answer Goo!

Its indeed very pleasing to see that Logitech pays atention to their customers and improve their hardware accordingly, just like dawesdust_12 mentioned.

However i love the sequential shifter mode of the G25, it really adds to the excitement of downshifting and braking for a corner. I've only stopped using it because its kinda wear out now and led to lots of false shifts...

Allthough the Flappy paddles on the G25 are very well crafted together, i HATE using them.

So how about building a decent sequential Shifter which can be purchased seperatly Mr. Goo?:dopey: Right now the only option for a well-made sequential shifter is paying ridiculous amounts of money for shipping, tolls & taxes to buy one of these

Make sure to include the following in your petition: Dynamic Weather, Dynamic Track Temperature, Dirt spreading to Track, Night Racing, a busy pit crew around your car when doing a pit stop, working pit lights, oh and the Scirocco of course :spin:

This was my first ever race with high wind conditions , and even though my pace was terrible i enjoyed it very much. Great decision to use high wind!

I think Jeremy Clarkson would put it this way: " I want a car that is constantly trying to kill me"
It was huge fun reaching 220+ kph on the big straight and then hitting the brakes hard for the shicane. Can´t wait for the season to begin.

Hi there,

first of all i tried using the search function but i couldn´t find anything useful.
The Hosts of our little League are using LFSStats for the Race, and as you can see here --->> http://gvrteam.gr/umc/s2_02/race02/r02_stats_grp2.html right next to me it says flags: "throttle". Can you tell me what kind of Steering aid this is and how i can turn it off? I cant find anything in the options. Thx for any help.
