Welcome to the series and we hope to see you all there this Saturday for this Non-Championship promo race!
Niko and I will be your race marshals and hopefully we'll have the Safety Car driver ready as well.
Remember, when you flip or sustain damage that makes your car nearly or completely immovable, do not quick-spectate. Wait for the marshal's decision!
IMPORTANT!
Safety car will be called through onscreen RCM - Race Control Message.
When shown, drivers are to slow to 100 kph, or 60 mph. No passing!
Pitwork is not required, however, pit strategy is encouraged!
General racing etiquette is to be observed, do not cause crashes. As with any league, complaints and protests are to be published here once the event is over.

Not sure if you've got the brain cells to realise, but the 'legal licence' users would not play on LFSPro, why? Because they can play on the actual master server...? Lol
And those who choose to play on LFSPro even with legit licence, well, either they are the Admin Team and Server owners of the servers on LFSP, or they just want to play with their friends - and they won't get banned from LFS unless they too have no brain cells, and decide to post their excursions and pictures of themselves on LFSP here on the LFS forum...
Scawen is not out to ban his own game'a community unless the community itself has turned against his very creation (E.g LFSPro users promoting the crack)
LFS is what it is, you've bought it at some point because you wished to support the Dev team and enjoy the content - why you have suddenly felt the need to get defensive for any point regarding a cracked community is amusing.
In any way, us by talking about lfspro is already giving the retards more attention to their 'services' then any advertising would do. Ignore them and ban on the spot those demo users advertising and that's all we have to do I'd say.
With full Safety Car procedures, active marshlling and pit stop strategies.
Pure single-class competition.
Racing on completely new unraced layouts, coming your way next Saturday. (Hopefully!)
Stay tuned to the LFS Leagues forum for more news!
People may prefer to have more of something, myself included. But we have to be patient even if we don't want to.
Those who play only on lan or singleplayer will not have the right to say they wish for more, until they have tried literally everything in the game.
Then a suggestion post or an opinionated post is validated.
Even with that being said, everyone is open to their comments and I agree that 5tag that we need more cars and variations.
But we have to wait. Updates will come. Just... not yet.
They will engage with you further there with prospects. Forum isn't really a good place
But any joint venture or sponsorship is good and a few actual Karts in LFS would be a warm welcome, especially on the purpose built kart tracks in Westhill.
I think the wind noise is a bit excessive in cockpit view, engine should be louder
In TV cam view wind noise should be non existent as there is no changing variable (moving camera), its static
For the rear wing cam the sound is just fine, almost feels and sounds like a low budget GoPro on a F3 car you see.
Imo wind noise indicates a low budget camera setup, so if that is what a future mod is going after then this is near perfect besides the changes that could be madr in paragraphs 1-2.
If not I think close to perfect audio is the way to go as camera and audio systems these days aren't this muffled or bad with wind.
I think you mean a global rating system across all servers. That is hard to justify as LFS doesn't just have racing servers - cruise, fun, crash and drift servers exist and it will be hard to generalise a safety rating for every server and to meet each server's requiremwnts.
Now the best method is to remember the person's IP whetehr through your admin program or a piece of paper, and banning whenever that IP reenters the server.
A better solution is a program or LFS coding that could better execute IP bans for a user.
The next installation of the layout series is here, and this is nostalgic (at least for me!)
Broker Hill is situated in the steep incline in Westhill main car park, which itself presented a challenge in routing the layout. The original version of track ran for a season in the LCS UF1 championship in 2017.
A full rerouting of second sector as well as track expansion resulted in this great track.
This is the first time I've experimented with a figure-8 (bridge) track, and it turned out nice!
Due to the surface of Westhill car park, paired with the steep incline, you may find this track challenging and bumpy! The track boasts several lightly banked corners, as well as a Fountain-of-Wealth structure; which is also part of Turn-1 kerbing! A very flowy track that rewards you with a grin after you've fought the bumps and hucks it gives you.
Maybe hey, @mbutcher @nikoPdr Maybe you can try taking on this track, it's bumpier than you might expect! Fortune favors the brave!
Marking the 13th (wow!) track in this series spanning over two years, I can only say..
Have fun, and see you in the next installation of this series!
First off, I'd like to thank everyone for sticking around until now - 14 episodes of layoutting! Thank you all!
A rather short but fun road surface rally stage around Rockingham! With several switchbacks and tight corners mixed in with some fast sections, this course will put your skills to the very test.
From the start, the path takes you through the exhaust test tunnel, through the back-roads, into the skidpad and past the main track, looping back to the paddock. A fun, yet interesting layout!
This year will be quite busy. However! Hopefully there will be one or two (or even more) circuit (race) layouts to come.
Hmm, no Bish I doubt there will be any additional content put to S3 from this particular update. S3 will only get updated once the new track is completed.
Blackwood and Westhill are updated, both now have "free roam" ability out of the main track. Otherwise, the editor has been updated to be more efficient (in theory), and Rockingham has been released in S3 a couple years back, also free roaming.
Not much else after, if you are a fan of the Rock or wish to add another track to race on then by all means S3 is the way to go. You might also benefit from the odd race event at Rockingham and of course the added track to explore, but if I'm honest I'd stay out of it if you are contented with S2....
Until the new update the devs are working on gets released.
But make sure server owners updste their Entry/Welcome screen message with a "lfspro,net is a prohibited phrase" or something, incase people accidently say it - not saying everyone will, but some will in a rare case.
Can I just suggest, as it appears they usually visit to spam and leave, probably on borrowed accounts;
Maybe servers with Insim or program like Airio, lfslapper or other, perhaps server owners and team managers can add the phrase "lfspro,net" to a blacklist Bad Language? So the user gets kicked/banned (whichever).
Better still if the entire first (in the case of the first report where user spam several phrases before reaching the word lfspro) Brazilian phrase can be added to blacklist, so when first phrase gets spammed he gets banned immediately before he can spam the following sentence with "lfspro" link to it.
Just two ideas. Of course report will have to be made for Scawen to remove the user totally, bur at least instaban will definitely discourage those people from promoting the server
