Shame about the bathurst tragedy

Quote from Gunn :

This is a good point, if only TCP packets have been forwarded your server will still appear in the list but nobody will be able to join.

Exactly what happened to me! luckily I twigged before I threw my PC and all connected peripherals out the window.

Excellent, i've still not pre-ordered due to the changing dates of all the suppliers, and it's good to hear they're getting a nice allocation.

Thanks for the update

Was anyone else on the Redline Racing 3 server last night when some bloke called Proof was wrecking all over the place? Sure I saw the biggest air i've ever seen in lfs, it was so funny (not the wrecking) I nearly coughed my dinner up.

I know what you mean, last night for NO reason my DFP decided no to have FF until I quit out of LFS and reload it.. I was all over the shop! couldn't correct even the slightest slide in the FOX!

I think you fell for the same things I did on port forward.com, did you make the open ports just TCP or TCP/UDP? make sure the ports are BOTH otherwise you'll have problems. I did this yesterday after a router reset.

Am I the only one that sees this in day to day driving?!

Quote from TyresHot :

Hi racers !!

i wonder that why lfs cars fliing?

when someone hits another,both cars becomes like balls and gets shooted other directions.sometimes when a car crashes to a wall, it flies at least 10 seconds.There is no doubt cars dont behave like that in real life.i have never seen or heard a car shooted to a hill by another car.

My question is this : is this a phsics problem that will be improved with the coming patches? Or this is nothing to care for lfs racers ?

I've seen this plenty of times on my daily drive to work, perhapse you have only seen very heavy cars, lined with lead and stuff?

Often on my journeys, i get clipped and spend the next 35 miles in the air, saves on fuel though!!

Quote from B11TME :

I have spoken to them as i have been in contact with one of them alot....I was told they are still on target for this week but if not this week it will be next week. He phoned logitech up for me to find out if its still going ahead but normally gameseek would have it as in stock now if they were to have them send out by friday and they aint. So i recon if logitech keep to there promis we will have the wheels by next week.

Positive news, lets hope they're right

bbbbbuuuuuummmmmmppppp

My DFP is perfecto, and I still have the box, manuals etc, even the warranty card I think lol... I'll post when/IF I ever get the G25 since it seems like it's an Enigma here in the UK!

Quote from BrandonAGr :

Maybe it's just me but I could whip my Formula Force wheel back and forth really fast, making it easy to catch slides, now I have to spin the wheel a whole 1 and a half turns really quickly to catch a slide, so now I spin out a lot more. But is definetly cooler having a wheel that turns this much

You might want to start with a smaller lock to lock, and slowly get bigger.. the from from Fo' Force to 900 degrees will certainly have the effect you speak of! same with folks who jumped to DFP 900

How about some RA on Kyoto national reverse!!!

Quote from Rtsbasic :

I got quite hopeful this morning, I popped outside to the mail box, and my neighbour comes over with a big parcel, I thought "yay G25 is here". Unfortunately it was just some RC bodyshells

I emailed Gameseek a couple of days ago asking if they were still expecting to ship the units by the 13th, no reply yet.

Can't really see the point phoning them yet, if they push it back again I'll give them a ring and ask if they have an actual date from Logi or if they're guessing.

Good plan

Christ, if I rode a bike I just know i'd be long dead by now!

Anyone spoken to Gameseek?! they're still saying 2 days to release!!!! I hope they're not fooling us!


*EDIT*
Oh and on the sly I managed to find their phone number if anyone wants to give it a try...

0870 803 4988

Amazon.com says my G25 shipped today, for delivery on the 12th

Wont it have a US power supply?

EDIT, sorry looked at your Flag, not your location!!

Amazing fun! saw them at Brands in the winter!

Looking good Gunn, how are you finding it now that you've had it a short while?

Oh man that video has made me want one bad!! arrhgfjghsfjghkfsghkjfhgkf BOOM.

Looks so fast too!!

Does it come with full PC drivers or will we need new WingmanTeam software?

Enjoyed that

Quote from P5YcHoM4N :

Well that sucks. It keeps on changing I hope I don't have to wait a month. If I do I might just cancel the order and pay more to get it from somewhere else.

Maybe Dabs just (pre)sold out of their initial assignment of stock, and now they're showing the expected eta of their 2nd batch since the first lot are all spoken for?

Quote from Vain :

Speed in LFS isn't decided by equipment. You can use a 15$ mouse/keyboard combination and be just as fast as someone on a G25 or some insanely expensive FREX-equipment or a ForceDynamics seat.
It's more about immersion and the fun of driving.

Vain

Having an analogue throttle and brake is the main advantage. And being able to make tiny adjustments mid corner etc helps, but yeah i've seen some uber fast Keyb/Mouse people, I think it's not as intuitive though

ARGHHH it didn't say that this morning!!!

... If a team could map entire towns/counties for use in the LFS engine hehe

Sorry I know this impossible, a bit random and is edging towards off topic but was having this thought on the way to work this morning.

I work about 8 miles from home, and the entire journey is backroads with little traffic, and was thinking how good it'd be to drive the journey in the FZR or the LX6 etc.

If you could get a map for a journey, what would you choose? I chose my route to work, because although I've done it quickly, I'd love to see just how quick I could do it, without breaking any laws or bones.

Maybe i've not had enough sugar today :zombie:

Quote from Tweaker :

It will be we available for most people I am sure.... that just sounds like a typical Support response where someone doesn't know what is going on

I am pretty sure Asia will get their fair share of the G25, if it didn't that'd be really stupid Probably will take a bit more time for it to reach Asia, or specific countries in Asia.

I agree, I think you'll be ok, try some investigating on other forums, as there are probably a lot of GT4 PS2 user forums that might have more users than here
