Quote from SamH :

The truth is that most people in the world are not actually too bright, and the rest don't think often outside the box. Prejudice is based in mistrust and spread by the stupid through fearmongery. None of the racists I've ever met have been thinkers, even the ones who had the smarts. I meet a racist and I immediately think "moron", these days. I guess I'm just prejudiced against idiocy

Wow that was probably the most stupid thing I've ever read from you SamH, honestly that deserves a place in my signature.

Edit: Oh dear it wont allow me to use it as my forum signature as it exceeds the limit of 4 lines, I guess ill have to link it

120 fps vids? UTTERLY pointless seeing as i don't know anyone with a 120 Hz monitor

You obviously know very few people as my monitor is good for 170Hz

Good stuff, although the drifting part was a let down.

Quote from Tomba(FIN) :

So when the bespoke and tweak comes to patch x? I am waiting:bounce8:

E: Sorry, Did i post this to wrong place?

Help me and Ill code it for you

I have finished a very basic and small application to enable you to tweak the 3 demo cars, I wont be doing anymore on it because I've just thought of something much better!

Anyway, if you're patched for X3 (test patch) I can send you this small tool and you can mess with it, just need to understand theres only like 3 options on it (for test purposes) so it's nothing like LFSTweak or such. I'm still trying to work out a decent method of finding different memory addresses, so for now this is all I have.

K BYE

Edit: If anyone has any past experience in memory manipulation (preferably LFS) then PM and ill pass you my msn address!

I don't believe what I'm reading here Niko, you've left DR to form yet another team?

Ok so how long will this team last then? Just give us an estimate, nothing too precise now unless of course you've already decided a date to end the team.

Quote from Sumi78 :

YEAH...more power on slower cars..no extra weights

You're only saying that cause you can only drive the FZR, and now it sucks


Its a shame really how the FZR is at the moment, its become the new FXR that no one touches. Its completely lost its zing, just feels like some bloated tank that just doesn't move.

Less weight on the FXR (so it don't eat tires as fast)
More power to the XRR (maybe do something about the lag)
Leave the FZR as is

Quote from tristancliffe :

You do realised the 'feeling' of a turbo 'kicking in' is a seat of the pants thing. You can't look out of a window and see the turbo 'kicking in' effect. So unless you make the turbo HUGE (i.e. 8hp before it comes in, and 8000 afterwards) you won't get that 'feeling'.

I declare this statement true.

Yeah if you're wanting a big bang you're going to need to knock up the turbo boost to like 30, I think by default its at like 12 so you'll get a 'we aint going no where' to a 'oh sheet the wheels are spinning, spinnnniinng..' then you crash and lower it cause its no fun on your own.

Then you watch youtube, and then go to bed.



.... at 8pm..like an old lady.. yeh up all day getting late now, feeling tired, need to get into bed.

Flat shifting in the turbo cars (atleast the XRR) will give you engine damage over a longer period of driving. In the 24HR event at KYGP recently I had to enable throttle cut on up shift, just so as my feet could get a break. And over the course of 40/45 minutes the car would pick up engine damage (popcorn), and you would notice a small decrease in engine power so to speak.

As for it making you quicker or not well I don't think so, it probably does but when I use throttle cut I feel the whole process of changing gear just goes a hell of a lot smoother and quicker. Button clutch on the other hand, well theres something I know makes me quicker

I think the key to the FO8 is knowing what its about to-do, as you can almost floor it out of bends without it stepping out. Just tweak the diff settings until you find the right amount of oversteer/understeer you want.

I use 220/225 Rotation for the car and leave LFS @ 360, I find once you get used to it it becomes pretty easy to throw around. I also use F1 TV style cam so I can see the wheels + wing etc, all at a 30degree angle.

Quote from p5srono :

ok im proper new to this so be patient, ive brought the s2 license, at 24 english pounds i had to, ive been playin and love it, but ive been readin bout the lfstweak, i downloaded but its for patch v and ive got x, is there a version for x, i only want to mod the xrgt turbo, ive read on other threads that lfstweak will only do demo cars wich the xrgt tubro falls into, does a version for patch x exist yet?

I could hook you up with a small Tweak like program for some very basic tweaks for X (Change cylinder amount/engine power/engine size) for the XRT and XFG/XRG (Engine power/Engine size)

I'm still working on a decent method of finding the values and such, so I don't have many at the moment. Its currently for test patch X3, so yeah let me know.

See ya!

Your setup looks pretty reasonable as of now but I think you could probably shave a bit more camber from the front and lose more downforce. If you're going to use more camber you'll need to lose more downforce, you have quite alot there atleast to what I'm used too.

Check your PM.

Quote from Crashgate3 :

I think something simple like a leaderboard on LFSWorld. Just something that under each time says something like '1245/204058' to show where your time comes out of everyone who has set a time.

You know what Hotlap mode is right?

Sorry but LFS Celebrities or Legends? Seriously this sounds like a Pop Idol debate!

We currently have high class racing in many forms, from endurance (MoE) right down to sprint like races (ESCC) these house the best of the best. And yes all the leagues I listed are available to anyone in LFS, but due to the skill level that race within these leagues you'll not find too many beginners there, naturally .

http://www.mastersofendurance.eu/ - MoE
http://www.lfs-league.com/ - OLFSL
http://www.lfsforum.net/forumdisplay.php?f=79 - BoTT
http://www.esl.eu/eu/lfs/escc/season2/ - ESCC

Yeah I'm sorry to say it isn't the XXXX amount of miles on a particular track that counts, it mostly comes down to how many miles overall you've driven in and out of hotlap/single player etc.

I think I've done 36K In about a year now and there are still a ton of combos I've never driven, and believe it or not one or two tracks.

But given 30 minutes with a good setup I wont be far from the WR time (under a second easy) and I wont need to watch any replay. Good drivers just adapt faster then the not so good, this comes with experience and not so much 'talent' although it certainly helps.

Finally no one needs to know who is the best of the best, arguably Biggie is the best but he might suck on track against others who prefer racing.

Edit :
MoE
BoTT
OLFSL

These are just some of the leagues I know that really test the best from the rest, perhaps you should look into them.

Quote from nihil :

There is no comparison to be made between left footing a real car and doing the same with your Momo.

I use my left foot all the time in simulations, but am a total menace on the road if I try it in my Peugeot. I can heel and toe a real car with ease, but have never practiced the left foot thing. Hence, if I try, what happens is that I jam on the brakes as if a toddler had just jumped into the road.

Computer controllers and real brake pedals are very different, and your left foot, used to finding the bite point on the clutch, needs a lot of recalibrating to operate the brake pedal safely, let alone trail it through a turn.

Very true, don't assume because you can LFB in LFS that you can do it in a real car. Try trail braking in a non-ABS car with your left foot for the first time, you'll find a tree before you find the corner exit!

As for doing it in a simulator, I think its a must to be competitive and it helps now and then just to have your foot resting above the brake pedal. Never know when that lag kicks in and you need to avoid a 20 car pile up

Indeed, age is never an excuse. You feel mature and wise enough to run a team, manage a 47 public slot server and a web domain, but find it too difficult to know right from wrong regarding wrecking?

And then to try and use the weak excuse of 'I'm only 13' and that we don't understand... I'd hate to say it buddy but most of us here are older then 13, so we've obviously been there before. So yes, we do understand, we understand at that age you generally piss around more, in a childlike sense... Not spoiling peoples fun, or pissing people off..

Irish Man: We don't have to deal with it, that's the beauty of being S2 Licensed. He wants to screw around and wreck, then he can start receiving bans from admin's, which in turn means ban from LFS (eventually) - So nah... Dun fink so.

Quote from Shotglass :

has anyone else noticed the filesize on that replay ?

also this replay is obviosuly fake ... nakki driving in 2nd position

Tarts account probably got boobled, and some averagely skilled driver is trying to improve his stats.

Jesus if ever I've seen a reason for global ban this would be one of them, Harjun you're a complete piss take.. Wrecking so blatantly on a server and then coming here to announce a team you want people to join?

Piss off!

Oh the 'nothing negative' was you, I just had to comment on it, please return your S2 licence. K bye.

Why not actually do something that benefits you in the long run? Perhaps learn something new, a language, a new skill or just read random articles and stuff on Wiki.

'Knowledge is power'
'Try to learn everything about something, and something about everything'

So do something constructive and useful

Quote from J.B :

Everone seems to agree with the ban? Come on, I can understand thet AS' driving was too agressive for some people's liking but where was the banable offence?

A ban for aggressive and careless driving? No that would be completly uncalled for, but to come to a public forum, read peoples comments on the replay of which Senna posted, and then to turn around and insult everyone with 'bellend' and other petty insults because we fail to agree with his side of the story. I think that deserves a slap in the face.

Yeah sorry Senna but you ain't got a leg to stand on here, you clearly drove/slid into AL and thus forced him into the barrier. I didn't watch any more of the replay and from what I've read so far, you seemed pretty immature about it after.

Besides your driving is terrible you're constantly using others are mobile chicanes and not leaving any room, cutting corners and diving down the inside like a looney.

Why not just run a timer at a decent interval?

Registering server names :thumbsdow

Unless of course you trade under that name and you're losing business, But me thinks that ain't so.
