I can assure you that you're not the first to suggest this, but I don't mind.

The devs have recently updated to a newer DX and improved the reflections and introduced post processing shaders so it's not impossible that we will get some more visual goodies soon enough.

not only that, it would be cool if the reflection angle change when you move your head (not that I have VR). And having mirror adjusters. Another level of realism lol.

I did around 150 laps on blackwood before I bought S2 back in 2009 or whatever. Demo users can spend a long time on the demo track but will eventually get tired of blackwood and buy the game (like me).

These limits might "force" demo users to buy LFS, but the people who cannot afford the game are less likely to return once they can afford it if they are shut out from demo.

My cents

That song is amazing. I love that style of super chill surfy music lol. Reminds me of Boards of Canada.

Just a little video made out of boredom.

I am speechless. This is amazing

Looks great I love the activity feed on the main page. And the forum integration looks neat. Well done!

What comes to mind when reading the title is an N/A XR touring car. Slicks and a high performance N/A 2.0. Just a few adjustments away

Sounds like a good idea to me. Instead of making the steering linear to the stick, make it work kinda like keyboard steering.

Can we combine joystick and a mechanical grid? Should be the best of both worlds.

We can't but ask logitech or fanatec.

Quote from Keling :

Not really on topic but this should be easy with a joystick shifter right?

Joystick shifters suck though

Quote from edzhjus :

Is that so? Then why in real life this happens when you switch gears wrong?

Not to mention what happens if you switch to reverse at speed and viceversa.
:doublefacepalm:

.:triplefacepalm:.
1. You linked to a video of BeamNG in the original post, not IRL videos.
2. BeamNG does not feature over reving damage or transmission damage. It only features soft body collision damage.
3. LFS features over rev engine damage as shown in the two IRL videos you linked.
4. Switching to reverse at speed in LFS doesn't provide any advantage so there is no reason to give penalties for it.
5. A real effect of incorrect shifting would be gear grinding, however this can't be simulated because you can't trough software programming lock out a gear from the actual real physical gearbox controller.
6. This idea is pointless
.:4xfacepalm:.

You know that beamNG doesn't have transmission damage for incorrect shifting?
And no engine damage for over reving? You do know that LFS has this already?

On the bright side; it's quite easy to make the strip longer.

But on the other hand; it's probably not that much fun after all. If you wanna top out your car, just crank the final up to 5:1

Use the effort for something better imo. Like the new tyre physics or a naice mountain track.

even though a big europe map would be pretty cool and all, I don't think this idea is fit for LFS. The player base is too small to diversify the game too much with too many different tracks (and too large tracks). The best is to keep it at a quite few available tracks with features to please as many people as possible.

A game to recommend for you is TDU. Sure it doesn't have as accurate handling / feeling as LFS does but it's not too bad for just cruising around. The game is definitely enough to have fun and the map isn't all of europe but a remake of hawaii (which is big enough to be fair)

Quote from Cyb3rHer0 :

The game will be very interessant if in off-line mode, you can buy some performance upgrades to your car, like:

Engine
Transmission
Suspension
Better Tires (Grip or Drift)
Brakes
...

that's my suggestion, and will be very interessant if needs an specific car to some parts.

Or:

You need to do a custom car, and a custom setup to do this.

I hope you read this and take it seriously.

Thanks for your attention

Transmission is free in the setup menu
Better brakes are also free, in the setup menu
Suspension upgrades are also, you guessed it, free in the setup menu.
Better tyres can be achieved with tweak. Some cars such as XRT comes with grip/drift tyre options without tweak.

And lastly. Engine; tweak.

But my supra mod was working well

Evidentially not

It can handle 4-5 hours of racing fine.

Quote from squidhead :

Butthurt? Me? In somebody else's thread? No. What I am is disgusted by you, talentless, cheap hack.

Guy puts effort in his driving and video, posted it here and all you jackass do is trying to ride his hype (hype, that's rich for a dead forum, but doesn't change the fact.).

I guess we're even then. Since you make a big deal out of pretty much nothing and start talking down on people. Do you really think that it would of made any difference if I made a new thread? "Trying to steal hype" please... It's not like he paid any money to start this thread, or that you get any more views from posting a video as a response rather than making a new thread about it. Anyways, I'm gonna leave this one to you now, because you obviously just enjoy smack talking on these forums anyways.

Quote from squidhead :

Nice shameless self promotion and attempt to hijack thread

Nice amount of butthurt

Hey, sorry to bother you (your personal messages are full apparently).

Did you ever figure out how to make cars show up in Blender? That part of the tutorial is unclear. Or I'm just stupid.

EDIT: http://puu.sh/57hTD.png

I am stuck at halfway. I press Control + L and select FZ50 but it doesn't show up..

If you're using blender 2.49 there is a drop down at the top of the window where you got all the cars listed.

One new venue

Nice.

I have one too :P
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CA6lZxuuyrA at 0:20 (All though my video is tweaked and I use about 40 degrees steering lock)

Something that could be done is to apply lerp (linear interpolation) to the replays so it blends over between the updates. (only optional in replay mode though or it would mess with collisions and multiplayer performance)
It wouldn't be 100% accurate, but it would be smooth.

yes
