Rear end feels disconnected to front - either front has too much grip or the rear is too light. Car has low mechanical grip and feels just like LX6 but with 50% higher downforce on initial turn in - then everything just falls off.
Sometimes you can overlay on the real track to check your progress... but with LFS physics and different ground speed/tire grip some corners won't align 100% perfect... for example, this is the best I've got at the moment (the red line is my track on the Wide Grid X config). *And bearing in mind I did not use this map overlay method until I had fully completed the track at 90%. I mainly relied on my eyes and onboard footage.
I'd say man hours.... and patience, this (till today) took about 16 hours and I had an 8 hour session with only a dinner break in between... ended at 3am today
Tons of onboards, helicam shots of the landmarks and scenery (I call them "d.o.f objects" in relation to the draw distance), and probably combined 2 hours worth of lapping and lapping to compromise between the car handling to the track.
I've just replaced the embed video with a new one of a quali sim; changed a few corner geometrics and the lap feels even closer to irl now
"Hello, the new vehicle mod patch is excellent, but the free server option should be removed because not enough chads are visiting my own server and I feel robbed"
You do know that the free servers die as soon as there's no one there, which means it's only really good as a temporary service, rather than permanent subscription, right? Don't take things away from people who can't afford to chuck cash at a server host just to open a quick 5lap race with their friends overseas. There is no one-size-fits all solution here.
Who could forget.... an early Christmas gift to everybody!
Nova's Really Good Circuit Layouts Vol. 26
Wondervalley Raceway
"Jolly merry team Scavier has blessed us with the release of 0.7 patch for modded cars!
Loving some V8 Supercars action myself, strapped on nikopdr's Holden car mod, and sat down
for 6 hours to chug out this piece of goodness - the Wondervalley Raceway
(previously named North Valley)! Featuring over 7 actual V8SC tracks and their
corners, try to spot them without looking in the video description!"
Best run with Niko's (nikopdr) V8 Supercar, the TBO class and FBM or FOX go pretty well here!

Hi Scavier, quick bug report. When saving SS when vehicle mod is downloading in-game in the background, LFS crashes completely and reverts to previous known setting/log in (i.e any change to driver tag, fuel, last joined server is wiped and reverts to previous)
No warning prior to crash and no freeze. Game crashes to desktop similar to the Shift+U editor glitch bug.
"The YES Ring combines everything you'd want from a fast street circuit concept - flowing,
cambered turns, long drafting sections, tight, twisty complexes and perfect esses
and switchbacks. A drivers circuit, the YES Ring was proudly co-crafted with YES Trespasser!"
