Actually what he said was:
If the physics track mesh is changed then yes, but if the graphical one is changed, then maybe not?
Victor also did LFS Record so he does more than just web stuff.
Now that's just silly.
Still needs XBCD drivers to split the trigger axis. I use a wired 360 pad too.
If you'd followed the development you'd know that the Scirocco pushed Scawen to improve the tire physics because he couldn't match LFS to real life to his liking.
:thumbsdow is what I think of your critical thinking and/or reading comprehension.
There will be no LFSW WRs for custom configurations. Maybe some insim app could do something unofficially but I'm not really sure.
OK, well my bump was about the fact that the 3rd party drivers don't work on Win7 64bit. I've got XBCD working on WinXP (the only reason I keep XP around is LFS/XBCD).
Just as you said yours does, my 360 pad works perfectly with LFS.... but only when using a 10 year old OS (I think Vista/7 32bit will allow them, but that's less than ideal as well).
Are you using XBCD on Win7 64bit?
Cool thanks for the detailed info that might help others.
OK this is actually a good idea and I hope PMD runs with it.
Many games have options to use DX8.1/DX9/DX10, is there any reason XInput can't be used, yet still use DX8.1 for everything else?
Would like to bump this. I use a 360 pad and would like proper support for it by LFS. Other games will take the triggers as separate inputs but LFS wont without 3rd party drivers. Only problem is they're unsigned and Vista/win7 64bit won't let you use them without doing something every time you start up.
That's because it would quite literally be worse than the track where all of AS1 is the pit lane. Having that much dirt would need hybrids and having that much tarmac would shred hybrids in a lap.
Nah, they're just not done yet. Whoever is doing them has to make the mini-oval to add to the possible layouts, they'll probably be up today or tomorrow.
I think maybe you accidentally voted wrong in this case.
Why patent it if you're going to give it to the devs for free?
Re-reading the OP I was surprised that no one mentioned this bit:
Dear anyone who doubted that Eric was working,
That is all.

Not really. If you read what Scawen said the fully-open map is still a bit of a half-done job. The engine (back then and currently as well) does have the limitations that the posts you mock describe, so it wasn't possible to have an open map (and still isn't with all the intended features of the engine). Obviously if you change the engine different things become possible.
It wasn't possible with LFS's then-current engine. Scawen changed things (and has resorted to leaving out light maps and other stuff) in order to get it working. I hardly see how people repeating what Scawen said are dunces.
I have a feeling it'll feel slightly "wrong" in comparison to what we know. Hopefully only slightly.
I'm pretty sure if you tried hard enough you could find a post where Scawen said it wasn't possible a long time back. He even mentioned that he had to re-write some stuff for the new shift+u camera controls and that led to the open-track.
Like grid spots (easily changeable) and pit boxes (not so easily) and netcode/people with poor internet connections (not under Scawen's control) and the graphical hit of being 64th on the grid (who knows how easy this is to deal with).
Well online it's a point that ghosts around. It could either be that or an arrow that only shows the instantaneous direction. I was asking which (or perhaps something else) it was.
Does this mean it'll be a circular graph like in LFSWorld RAFA's Overview?
Thanks for the chance to play with new things
Yeah but luckily Phil and Yann posted to make this thread a little better.
Road to F1 was a really good event when DSR put it on. That's probably where you got the idea though, isn't it?
There was a stillborn sister-league too, Road to GTR.
