the whole new profile thing is poo...

lol, I dont mind, they look horrible, but so do certain lfs cars

good, I couldn't imagine myself driving a solstice without it

What about trackIR support? I thought it was supposed to have support, but I've stll haven't read anything concrete about it.

Well, it was a General Rant

or Major Bitching




(yes, i watch too much himym )

Hmm, general rant area huh? I could give a huge rant about how the quality of the UFBR has "risen" since it has been opened to unlicensed users, but I'll hold my horses.

thanks for posting those videos.

the amount of detail in that sim is just amazing

Indeed, trying to piss her off is definitely not gonna work in your favour

reminds me of a great pc v apple skit by dave chappelle

You'll probably have a headache after explaining to your significant other where those 160 dollars went

^^ sounds good to me

Now they only have to make a page on their site saying: Buy here


edit: only sucky thing is that there is no Sebring yet

I plugged in my old msff pedals, and this is what I came up with.

Disregard the other axes/axii?, they're from a different controller

Well, to my defense, I did read it. Just not point 5.9

modest mouse - edit the sad parts

It's still accepted to listen to coldplay in my book

Yeh, i use lfs for my racing needs, and use rfactor for my nordschleife-bathurst-v8 supercar fetishes

I still don't understand why the sims has to bother givin you that information. Just throw those max rpm values in a few #define's and you're set. And for recording the amount of rpm's for each individual gear when you hit the shiftpoint, you just make a program that figures it out. I can even post the c# code i have for it.

Please don't make outgauge more complicated because it wasn't supposed to be.

not me, I'm going for gold in the privateers cup AND the drivers chamionship

And yes, I'm that cocky

Quote from Almadiel :

I think its pretty important to have max rpm, and perhaps top speed information from outgauge. The way it is now we have to either let the user imput them manually, or have the program guess. Guessing isn't reliable for a few reasons: not all styles of driving or car/track combinations have the player going to max RPM (when using a clutch pedal particularly), and going by the shift light won't work because it doesn't necessarily come on at the same RPM for every gear. It makes for a much better user experience if the gauges we program just work, showing the correct range of values as soon as you get in the car. Right now there is no way to do this.

Dude, you can just program all that yourself. With all the rev bar hardware I made (be it over parallel, serial or usb port) I always made sure my program was recording the max rpm's for each individual gear, and tbh, writing and debugging such an algorithm only takes 20 minutes.
And recording top speed from outgauge? Have you ever programmed with outgauge (or programmed at all)?

Seeing as this is kinda the official OutGauge thread:

Would it be possible to put the clutch temperature in the outgauge struct?
There already are EngTemp and OilPressure, but since those don't have a place in LFS (yet) I can't help wonder why the clutch temp isn't there.

I added my hotlap to my initial post to show my participation.

I saw "Disturbia" at home this weekend, and "Forgetting Saraah Marshall" in the cinema which was an awesome movie

Expect me to be shouting at the awful 'clutch' model a lot though (it's one of the reasons I've played LFS twice in the last 6 months - I hate it!)

Whiner

Good to have you back though

Quote from james12s :

edit: mikey most guys started with the base setup avalible from the ctra website, got to the server page and there is a download link with the ufbr server details

Thnx for that tip

Off I go to make a blistering fast so6 set

Thanks for that info guys.

btw, is there a site which has uf-br setups, because it's kinda difficult to get sets on the ctra server.
