Been playing about with some footage, nothing too fancy.

Quote from THE WIZARD DK :

really nice video. but.. that ENB (i assume) it looks very odd to me. besides that i think its a great video. and yes. been awhile since i also seen you in lfs. wb.

Thanks

Yeah I forgot to remove that old ENB mod before recording the first 10 clips and decided to leave it in, for this video atleast, not to have to redo the research and recordings. But thanks for reminding me, taking that ENB mod off right away!

And thanks for the welcome back.

I'm not sure tho, if I will be driving again, but I surely will be recording more old footage purely to save them I guess.

Hey everyone,

It's been a long time since I stepped foot in here...

Recently I've been reworking old results from events I've hosted, purely for my statistics hobby.

Between 2009 and 2013 I've (together with amazing people) hosted over 150 races/events/etc as Team Rock Racing in Live for Speed. A time of ups and downs, as I was going through an extremely rough period in my life. And people that didn't truelly knew me, probably thought I was some insane oddball, but that's what you get if you don't explain yourself...


Anyways, whilst going through, over 240 replays in an old instance of LFS and creating a huge database of spreadsheets with results. Example here: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1F-Uq0wTIXN3rMSzOTV4qFulQf4nhFnQBD2ZZi89RODw/edit?usp=sharing


I also noticed there often was a race or event where crashes occurred, honest accidents in the heat of the moment.

I am slowely starting to record some of them. In my spare time beside my YouTube "job" and work for mCon esports. And I will turn them into more episodes of LFS Crashes.

Here is part 1 of the classic crashes series, being LFS Crashes #8 (no music added, like most of my YouTube videos)




I hope you'll enjoy, feel free to leave a comment here or on YouTube, thanks!

Wowzers, sorry to hear this is going on, on my old favorite hangout in LFS.

Just this very night where I wanted to have some LFS fun for the first time in god knows how long.. And I see no [TC] servers and questioned myself HAVE THEY QUIT??? Luckily you guys didn't, but the reason the servers are offline is very, very saddening...

Hope you guys find a solution soon and that we'll have time to do some catching up. Missed you lads!


Cheers,

Quote from Scawen :

OK, I'm only quoting yours but also read the others. I'll try it out.

Only thing is, I think with rotation switched off I'll be able to get the map squeezed up nicely on the right side of the screen (better than it is now - it's unfinished). With rotation, it'll need to be out about where is is now, and there could be a bit of overlap. So I'll code for two different positions of the centre point, making best use of space when the map is not rotating.

We'll see how that goes. I expect to be able to work on that tomorrow.

I was about to sugggest to use a code similar to the Mirror codes, where you can either choose a fixed position(right corner as you suggested) or, for the map, rotating, but then you can slide it to what ever position,left and right, as you (the player) likes? But within the screen border?

Quote from GreyBull [CHA] :

Thanks for sharing Rocky, I see the new BeamNG vids are doing quite well too

Yes they are quite much aren't they?!

Ten thousands of views every day spread across my vids!

Quote from Welshie :

What circuit is the first clip from? With the 2 Mini's racing through the uphill chicane?

Hey, that would be Aston Cadet REV / AS1R!

Quote from Eclipsed :

See him go? He's gone practically for several years already...

Very incorrect, Rony, I was still very active in Public racing and especially Cruise community.

I did indeed quit leaugue races from 2013 on, but didn't quit LFS in general till March of this year!

Hey,

As I've quit LFS for good early 2016 and picked up video-editing again, I decided to make one last LFS Crashes compilation as a last goodbye to the game/sim that kept me entertained for so many years.

I used many unused clips from over the years, and this is my final good bye to you lot, thanks for the fun and hate we shared, after all, we all shared 1 love, Live for Speed!



Take care!,

Walter / Rocky7up

Thanks ScaViEr for this brilliant FPS boost and continious work on LFS again, keep it up!

Quote from cargame.nl :

I was wondering this too.. But in a different way. The new physics is good, Eric only wants to drive with this. But it can be cheated... Now I was thinking what can actually be cheated about it compared to the old physics. Wiggling the steering wheel all the time... Blowing against your computer screen to let the tires cool down more.. Eehhhmm.. What else..

Dave mate I was laughing so hard at that!!

Quote from KmboooL :

Here some skins that I designed. Kind of simple.

Thanks!

Loving the KitKat skin.

Humans, haha

Simple big start crash in the chaos on the official exploration server!

OMG I believe I won't be able to sleep until it's released! Looks absolutely fabulous!

The part where the GTi's drove through that underpass, waaaaaah!!

Quote from Scawen :

Yes, Test Patch this month.

Not today though.

This month as in March 2015?

I've noticed a slight FPS improvement on my Windows 8 machine.

No issues so far! Great work ScaViEr!

Quote from chanoman315 :

Can't we just put LFS on kickstarter and gather a lot of funds to buy licenses for tracks and cars?

Of course, because once we raise all that money, we can tell the money "HEY MONEY! GO BUILD SOME **** TRACKS".

Oh wait... it doesn't work like that. Money doesn't do anything. People do things.

Funny

But remember people do things ( for the money )

If LFS had been done 'for the money' it would be long forgotten by now.

Amen to that.

Oh I totally forgot to try these test patches. I shall give G3 a go today. Thanks Scawen!

Quote from UnknownMaster21 :

I also never forget Mouseman's epic trolling or Rockclan's epic laughing

Well UM, according to TS users my laughter is still epic!

We should have a chat to catch up

UM please PM me.

Can't wait for the update! I am really liking the fact that you guys communicate a bit more with us.

And Scawen and Eric, keep up tje great work on this ever so great sim. After going into my 13th year as an LFS driver, I'd gladly wait a couple more weeks if needed! #GoLFS

And Victor, thanks for your continous work on this great new website!

Quote from Ped7g :

[joke]Scawen got fed up of forum whiners, and let you taste, how it will be when LFS will be truly dead...

Legendary joke, I like it! (the joke)

If anyone wants a standard LFS server with FOX, without airio and just simple user can select track stuff, I could easily host that.

Infact, if someone would like to have a racing server on LFS WITH or without Airio (when he has the knowledge on how make it work with Airo), I would gladly offer 1 or 2 LFS dedicated hosts!

Just PM me!

I might have put a slightly moaning post last week, without an actual intend to moan, since I really love LFS and just feel sad for many mates leaving.

But Scawen, thank you for not giving up! I had/have to deal with my disablities in life, which make me unable to get a job. LFS has over the years and still... given me a great pleasure in life, I've met close friends on this great simulator, some of the ones I see on a regular bases and have fun with.

Without this simulator god knows what my (and our) lives would have looked by now. It gave me a safe place to have fun, and I would really like to thank you, Eric and Victor for delivering this safe environment, where I got to meet many of my friends!
