Will rally stage be part of rockingham track too? :-/
Great news devs! Bring it to us asap or asaf (finished)

and now close thread

Quote from PioneerLv :

If this track will not be public, then whats the point of making that stuff? Okay, commercial, but real LFS is here, in this forum, in our PC's. I hope devs will really make it public after some time.

What else to say? You did it before me
Close thread? :~D

Make this thread sticky Bert. It contains much of basic information for beginners.
There is going to be change to LM races, so read our forum on AB site for more info. (once a month )
See you on track

Making new thread to promote videos from AB racers to the whole LFS world.
Let's start with something serious in our league
I believe it's video from mazdarati(e)

http://www.rielity.org/absolute/movies/AB%20Crashtest.wmv

kindly hosted by Riel(ity)
Enjoy!


ab guys, please add here more links Especially on Riels server

ps: I think better name for this video would be "CrashFest"

http://www.rockingham.co.uk/about/circuits.asp

Maybe all versions of track? Suits to LFS great

For some race experience follow my signature Should be good starting point for you

I'm unclear on that as we seem to have simply run out of alphabet, but a major upgrade does not seem anywhere near ready from what little I have seen reported so far.

Yes, you're right. There are not any updates info cause of people moaning about *promised* functions/addons, which were not taken into game and stupid problems like that, so devs took decision of not-showing info until officially releasing patch. Though, you can read forum /or search scawen's posts/ to know much more about this problem.

Yes, next patch should be 0.6A as G!nho said. In 0.5Z we're for a year and month or so. From what I heard, there used to be updates every year on Christmas or near Christmas. (or twice a year? not sure about that).
I hope it's enough info for you

and curbs should make some noise when on them. Or am I wrong?

Matrixi: In what patch it happened?

I agree with pasibrzuch.
It's not a bug, it's a feature!
I had it once too on Z15.. on nvidia

Suggested, so deleted.

You really need a day(month)-off from LFS
We all want it as soon as possible, but you seem like your life depends on game
Get a bicycle and go out, learn new things on the internet, go read book, get drunk if you're over 18(21), just don't get so much addicted on LFS!

I think it's a very good simulator for this, BUT only for learning how to control car and basics with g25, so I agree with Void. Anyway, you need more cars and MANY crossways to teach/learn properly.. and more sensitive clutch and gas.
Anyway, I use it to refresh the basics to my GF and she likes it too. Feels natural, but not natural enough to be the simulation which driving schools should use..

Quote from mxpxun :

first link aint working

There was an image, containing text "It's done when it's done." As far as my memery recalls it right.

Did he get a ban?

I think that "random weather" of course adjustable, will give more content then new tracks and so on. I am for new tracks (I've still haven't race all though ) but I'd be more pleased to see weather and night conditions, which will make MORE fun then new tracks/content. (S3 is far far imo)
Thanks for upcoming tire physics update!

ps: Please, release it sooner...
Since I have license I haven't seen a whole alphabet upgrade

Quote from Bandit77 :

Naaaah... there's a key in game that you can press to toggle from racername to username. Forgot which key... haven't played for a long time.

As Far As I Know it should be CTRL + SHIFT (both left keys)

Finally we're getting more closer to Early 2009
Thank you for many words Scawen; guys

What about something like this?

Quote from shaun463 :

Could anyone please help? I am going to re-download LFS to see if that works.

Have you read comments in Wine forum about LFS?
Here read it all and try to dig some info from google too.

If no help, give us here output of wine lfs.exe. Until you don't provide us with info from terminal, we can't help you. This is not windows....

Please, give a go to newer version of wine
http://www.winehq.org/download/
At least try it, it's the less you can do alone

Quote from bunder9999 :

you need a app called usbtool to activate the clutch pedal and 900 degree mode. you can find it on the vdrift forums of all places.

Or G25manage, which works for G25 imo the same way Clutch and 900 worked, just LFS got problem to set clutch properly... neveretheless.. until it's so slow in wine 30-40fps single car, whole LFS gaming in linux is pointless

Info

Quote from Maniek007 :

hi!

I'm trying to steer with mouse but it is so difficult. I need best setting for keyboard and for car. Please give me a tips how to be a good driver on keyboard. Sometimes i'm trying to make drift but i got rolled, maybe too soft shocks? I dont know... I need some tips how to beat corners, better (sometimes my car rolling when i try to beat corners with higher speed like 130Km/h...)

Anyway- anybody using keyboard?

Go for mouse, place shift up/down on mouse buttons, learn to steer with it, throttle/brake W/S side-look Q/E that's all you need
I see many fast people on mouse VERY fast.. give it few days and you'll like it more than keyboard

A little bit offtopic, but I has tried G25 on ubuntu with 2.6.31-5 kernel and I had only 2 bugs.
Impossible to get properly work clutch pedal (but I could see the moving axis while pushing the pedal) and wheel was somehow still in center position until +-45° (I mean like turning \ | / does nothing), so some kind of big dead zone. Shifter worked and FFB was somehow weird, but it was there
900° worked too

Just a bit info about using G25 under linux

Quote from The Very End :

Congratulation to dumbass0 for giving the correct answers to me by PM.
Lisence will arive this evening, so untill that arrives you can have fun reading the manuals and getting the setups right

Will you make the correct answers public? I'd like to know some answers too

Very kind of you to make such a competition for demo users
