don't worry about it, i forgot i made it from the XRR steering wheel but it would be kind to ask if it could be used, it's not the best quality wheel so i wouldn't really think much of giving permission to use it

it's just that the textures on it are made from scratch by me so theres some bit of work i put in it

no/87/nikopdr

nice steering wheel but i don't remember being asked for permission to use it

sorry for the double post

i had a closer look into this in singleplayer and with AI.

if i add AI in the lobby screen each car is normal, this behaviour is also the same on race restart and if i add AI into the grid during the light countdown. but if i add one AI, let it start by itself and run the 12 second limit before you can join track, the colours on the light covers become mismatched.

yes

altough at first i thought the colour youve chosen is applied to other cars but that doesn't seem to be the case in your picture

Hello I am sqlyzy and this thread is for ideas for the devs that make LFS. One of my ideas is that there's a car and helmet customizer in game like for making wraps in NFS hot pursuit remastered.

there is something even better that doesnt limit you on what shapes/logos you can use and you can make helmet and car paint with it

Quote from Racon :

It's very nice to throw around, but it has a broken hitbox - in the viewer you can see that the triangles in LOD2 are inside out, it means that sometimes the cars can overlap and then lag-explode. If you flip those triangles it should fix the collision issue

how can you throw it around if yuou dont have a hitbox

theres even an autogeneration for the hitbox for the lazy ones, and this got through
(edit: this mod had several updates so i blame mod uploader instead of reviewer my apologies carry on)

Quote from gu3st :

And I don't believe that you were even born when LFS was "incepted" with how you behave.

How can you not believe this, after all he's a former street racer so he must know a thing or two

On a more serious note the first post makes no sense, of course people are capable of making world records and driving on the optimal lines, and they will be always capable of doing that even if physics are different, that is usually a result of hours/days/weeks of practise to get a single good lap in. You only see the best lap in hotlaps, that doesn't mean it's the only lap in a track/car that the person has done.
You can adjust your clutch pedal in real life to have bite earlier or later depending on your preferences. Many racers use handbrake to get extra rotation into tight turns, especially in rallying but it works in circuit racing too. Most famous example i can think of is late 90s F1, when McLaren fitted their cars with an extra brake pedal that worked on one of the tyres on rear axle.
The only thing i can agree on is that the tyres at the moment do not cool down as fast as they should in my opinion, but i have no data to compare it to. Road tyres are pretty much perfect in LFS. Im not sure about how much the sidewall/tyre carcass should flex under forces, road tyres seem ok here but slick tyres have a bit too much flex in my opinion. hybrids/knobbly could have less grip, too.

I learnt valuable stuff regarding driving in LFS, but only after i got my real license and drove tens of thousands of kilometers in real life (some kilometers went by faster, some at road speeds) i became somewhat faster in LFS too. You can use driving principles learnt in LFS in real life, and vice versa. As long as you understand how to take in the information from force feedback and how different it is from driving a real car.

A year ago i converted a layout because i wanted to have the track on asphalt rather than up in the sky on concrete patches. I ended up never releasing it as ive been thinking to put all my layouts in one thread at some point.

I had to double check to make sure if it's the layout i was thinking about, but only the style is very similar and i hope u dont mind me posting it here. Guess it's my fault i made the conversion 1,5 years ago and never posted it anywhere apart from to use once or twice in FM events.

The original was made by VTR (i left credits on top of the pit lane tower), i merely renamed it, brought the objects to the ground, remade a lot of white lines and added some speedbumps here and there to discourage cutting.

New background vehicles for me to make!!! Veh4x4 boutta have brothers

thank you for the valuable contribution in this thread

u can generate .raf files by opening a spr replay, pressing esc and clicking on "output lap data" before a hotlap and after the lap is finished u can find the result in data/raf

open the raf file in LRA and u can see what u want and altough it doesnt have as many options as MoTeC does, it should be more than enough

if you have a single monitor setup then check the "multiple screen layout" selection, you have 1 on the rightmost selection when it should be 0

it would be also improved by people categorizing their mods accordingly, as for now you get all sorts of random stuff mixed up regardless of class

also where you get pedal powered even since all the bikes that have pedals are electric anyways
