Im from 'across the pond' and I vote for this thread to be closed. (1/2)

I agree close this crap, the first 4 posts just pulled the whole thread into a shit pit and this is not typical of the lfsforum. Why has everyone become so nasty lately and letting all types of digs and offensive behavior fly? The idea of a forum is to voice differing opinions and then discuss them in a rational manner, now every idiot can almost say what they want and offend anyone without any beat down from a moderator.

I love all the 'its too realistic for you' digs that a lot of the regulars are putting forward, when quite frankly LFS is about as realistic as a tooth fairy (in its current form). I thought LFS was pretty bloody accurate when I first got into it, but its probably not as bang on as we'd all like to think.

Furthermore if you're looking for something thats proper hardcore and realistic I suggest you go and play some GPL - Then come back to LFS and wonder why a lot of the GPL players consider LFS a 'fake physics' sim. I'm not here to knock LFS because I love it, but I am sick of the 'other side' banging on about how 'real' and 'great' it is and that anyone who fails to see/accept that must be a complete and utter idiot that cannot deal with the extremely minor changes.

I guess the main gripe I have with this new patch is the way things came to be and how they were implemented, no one really had any say and we've usually had some sort of input into the grand scheme of things. And no this does not mean that Scawen should go ahead and develop what we want, when we want, But I feel we should get a say on things being removed or added as after all this isn't a full product.

All this forum hysteria doesn't help the transition either.

I'd like them to stay, and I'd be mighty pissed off if they were cleared even when I disagree.

Every user can go and delete their PB's on LFSWorld - I however will be using them to benchmark the new patch to the old patch, this might not be important to most of you but I need them just like I'm sure others do too.

Quote from squidhead :

I know one essential thing that can not be denied - real hip hop = Black people FROM the ghetto, who have been to prison basically say that their lives suck, but they still stand tough with some beats put to it...
I believe that is enough to put basically EVERY white rapper (or French or Norwegian or any other country but USA) out of the definition of real Hip Hop...
Your "Foreign Hip Hop" is a cheap shot trying to get a few bucks on a popular theme (just like modern hip hop which is defined as R'n'B and is all about "LOOKIE AT ME SPINNAZ YO")
If you state that "Foreign Hip Hop" artists can be compared to people like 2Pac, Notorious B.I.G., Dr.Dre, then you really should learn what Hip Hop (and RAP particulary) really is about

Again you're completely wrong and know nothing to do with Hip hop, even I know how hip hop came to be and it has so much more to it then what you're saying you idiot. Firstly hip hop never started in 1991 with 2pac or Biggie or NWA, it stemmed way back and it hardly ever involved lyrics that speak of jail time and 'the struggle' so get your facts straight before you talk crap.

Go learn some real music and go and learn 'hip hop' - go and read up on people like Grandmaster Flash and RUN DMC and others like The Beastie Boys (who happen to be white by the way) and get some facts together before you run your dumb mouth again.

2Pac Biggie and Dre never made hip hop - hip hop made them even I know this and I prefer rock/punk/ska.

You're such a spacko its unreal.

I can vouch for it (lurLFSd) simply shocked me at how brilliant it really is, I've never really dug into it and given it much of my attention - But just the install process and the ease of enabling/disabling already written plugins just left me speechless.

All I had to do was update PHP to 5.2.X and away it went, effortless install and setup on a FC6 box.


Documentation leaves a little to be desired though *non existent*

Whichever of you is hosting a server and running custom memory hacks (Like bespoke) need to run the same thing.

For example if you have 6 spokes and he has 8 LFS will fall over because you fail against what the host is using, so if you're both wanting to go online you need to be both using the same presets for wheels or tweaks etc...

Thank you Victor

I love the hotlap.

Worm and Flotch are unbeatable (go france ^ ^)

Except they're both getting beat by Bawbag and Biggie.

Go Scotland Go Germany!!

OT: anyone know how to download stage6 videos without installing the divx plugin? Divx aren't getting another chance from me after I recently realized that it was the divx audio decoder that was causing CTDs in Oblivion.

This forum is going down shit creek.

Someone disagrees with the new patch and you get a gang of forum mafia come to tell you otherwise, the best bit is when they go ahead and start their own faction.

For those unaware the thread is titled Join the "We're glad LFS is harder and more realistic now" club

I'll also add that I also dislike the new patch but I'll give it a go and see where it takes me, for comparison purposes I have also got myself a copy of GPL and have been playing that for the last two nights. Its very different and pretty hardcore, I'm almost certain the majority of the LFS "realism faction" would struggle immensely with it.

Quote from axus :

Try and adjust. I used to do just that, and having readjusted, I'm much faster, more consistent and even my race craft has improved because I'm not concentrating on what speed I'm going but rather going as fast as I can given the surroundings and conditions. You'll see that soon you'll be enjoying LFS much more.

What kind of attitude is that? I've been playing LFS for almost 2 years, now I'm forced to change how I drive because its more 'realistic' how my speed is displayed? :rolleyes:

I'm trying to like this new approach of LFS but I'm finding it difficult, at the moment I dislike the test patch but I'll give it more time and see how it goes.

Link doesn't work for me,

Good video, nicely put together - Shame about the music

9/10!

I've been coding my own tweak/mechanic for a few weeks now, I've sort of put it on the back burner as of now though due to other commitments in my life and all my LFS time being dedicated to leagues and events.

It'll be released on Patch Y though, It won't take long after its out a week at most.

Quote from Gunn :

Here is my take (attached), but listening to it now I think it needs a lot of improvement. Still, the idea is there.

We are planning on a longer remake, any blues muso's should step up to the mic and we can do some bluesy justice to this cool little ditty by Astro.

Good stuff mate sounded very good with the original recording - Although I never knew a Harmonica could sound like that, always sounds a lot different when I try and play one

Quote from Riders Motion :

All the stuff upper is unrealistic arcade gaming... So I doubt any person will based their choice on your NFS pr0 d0r1 skill1ss...

DK = Drift King? ...

Good luck in finding a team anyway...

He is a better drifter then you.

Quote from rafo_cardenas :

Obviously not much around here as I would have liked

Still racing frequently, just on odd hours

PS. You made me post twice today, now I have to wait till mid april 2008 to post again

Me and Jonesy raced you guys last night in some Latin America server (which booted me about 5 times ) - Good to see you're on the forum!

I like the idea, add some little signature award things *Best Noob Award* banner and it'd look cool

Quote from Cr45h :

i've just to run it, but with wine i can't...

It says that i've to install the Windows versione of Mono to run .NET executables...

You dont run it with wine you run it with Mono, simply install mono with whatever package manger you use then run LFSLapper with


mono LFSLapper.exe LFSLapper.cfg

What a load of turd..

Don't quit your day job cause your movie sucked..

1/10 - For effects
0/10 - For music selection
2/10 - For your arab drift style

Probably the worst movie I've ever seen in my life.

Better luck next time though...

Quote from Cr45h :

Hi all.

I've a problem with Lapper and Debian.

As the guide says, i need to have Mono and make. I've both of them. I've tried to run the command "make" as the guide says but i get an error:

"No rule to make target 'src/InSim.cs', needed by 'bin/LFSLapper.exe'. Stop. "

Ideas?

I've looked into src folder, and ther's Insim4.cs and no Insim.cs

Maybe this is the problem?

Thanks for help.

Are you just looking to run Lapper or have you rewritten it somehow?

On a side note I've just got lapper running on a Fedora box and its working fine, it only took me about 5 minutes to get going - However I don't think I'll be using it in the future as its become a little too 'bulky' for my likings

That was awesome man!

I hope this won't be a one off - Get some other drivers and make another track!

Quote from Mille Sabords :

...and be able to set that using a script for each car
One can dream...
BTW I decreased it to 2.xx and this makes it possible (if barely) to drive LX cars with a mouse, and by not bothering to change it back I discovered that my handling of all cars was much smoother this way. I also managed a better PB at BL1R / XRG!

So this is an unlikely to happen request but would be good. What would be even better is (as already asked for...) mouse to steer and apply throttle, brake on a button.
The answer you will receive is use a wheel and pedals though.

You can use the mouse to steer and accelerate you just can't stop

I was just watching an oldish replay with some of us Mercury guys driving and generally being idiots, and noticed that we all had the same coloured mirrors. I know that we could probably just colour each skin differently and just upload that, but I was thinking perhaps it'd be easier if like the rims & body - we could have a colour sliders to change the mirror colours too?

It's not an important suggestion or even highly useful but I think in some league races it could be a little beneficial and easier to implement then uploading different skins for different drivers.

I do believe this hasn't been mentioned before as I've performed a quick search on it, sorry if its been added!

Quote from squidhead :

I once thought CoRe are a racing team filled with good racers...
this video proves otherwise

How idiotic are you?

I'm truly surprised you've not been banned from these forums, the amount of low life rubbish you churn out is unreal.

Oh as for your question asking 'what level is the team at if they're doing this' - Put simply they're on a completely different level to you, and any of their drivers would make you look like an old lady on a track.

BigTime : Now do it with a FZR + 4WD @ 1500BHP
