Quote from AndroidXP :The point is that most servers are mislabeled by having the term "Cops & Robbers" in their name. Mostly they want to simulate "CityDriving" instead, i.e. just driving around normally and roleplaying. Which gets quite boring quite fast, IMO. And these people also constantly wonder why someone actually wants to provoke a cop chase, which is not seldomly followed by a kick

absolutely agree. Some time ago there was such an excellent mod illepall who banned me for ramming a police-car a bit to provocate a chase.
usergroups on servers

Hi,
I had kind of nice idea I think. The idea is, that you can put s2-users on your server into different groups with different rights. So e.g. the superadmin-group which can change everything, an admin-group with just a number of rights, ...

Quote from Becky Rose :Perhaps a compromise would be a fantasy track based around Spa Francochamps?
[...]
Plus if it's a deliberate fantasy track we could get a few more short combo's in there too, which is where the best racing in LFS is to be had - it's just that for some reason track length seems equal to male external paraphenalia length around here sometimes.

Of course you could get lots of original shorter configurations ... nordschleife, f1-track, track without the before the last corner, ...
And if you don't wanna drive the nordschleife, you don't have to ...

and about paying (if a license is required) I already wrote something in the old thread (take a look at the 2nd post, 2nd page). The answer of Victor about it was:
Quote : Hi,

Interesting, but I can't really say anything useful about it atm. Making a track that big will take eric a loooong time, even when the whole track layout would be supplied digitally, ready to be imported.
It'd be nice to have it, but we have to weigh it against the time it will take to make it and some other things. And because atm we're still focussed on finishing S2, I can't say much useful about it.
But that doesn't matter - the idea can wait. Maybe we can pick it up in the future. No promises though. Also I'm not sure if it's fair to let the enthousiasts pay for something the rest will get for 'free'. I dunno, but it leaves a slightly sour taste. I just know there will be people who think 'let someone else pay, I will download it when it is there thank you very much', so just opening an account for this purpose may not be the best option.
In short : we'll see.

Regards,

Victor

of course it was meant, that everyone had to pay ... and I wrote this back to Victor

I would love it. But it would great if it would be possible to define different usergroups and add different USERS to it. So there would also be no need of a real admin-password.

I don't think the sounds is the most important to be updatet at the moment.
I want the things with the wings, which Biggie said in another thread (you know, 0,25° or something to change).
I also would like an animated pitcrew, one pitting position for one driver and as already said some more things should be able to be changed.
I also would like the So Sprint-Tracks to be updated. We need pits there, because these are two great tracks. And it would be possible in a quite easy way.ln Sprint 1 you could go straight into the So Long - pit and go back there at the first corner of Sprint 1.
And of course more balancing to the GTRs, because it really sucks at the moment.

Quote from Yaamboo :Untrue. You would get a good fps but large graphical errors. If you get the car outside of the track area you have similar problems.

you would get less fps ... but no graphic problems, because everything would really belong to the track ...

Are you still working on that Dean? Because my team and I think many others are really interested in that

Quote from Michel 4AGE :SvO rules apply, yes it's public road

Then it wouldn't cost anything ... so after S2, we wanna see the Nordschleife - Addon

Quote from Gunn :Imagine a server with 10 players, once pitted you would be lucky to see another car for the rest of the race.

This would of course be a track for a 24h-race or any not public competitions. But for 24h-race it would be absolutly great.
I don't know, if copyright would be a problem ... but I think so. And I don't know, if it's a public road here in germany o.O
Anyway, rebuilding the F1-tracks Albert Park (Australia), Monaco und the old Austrian racetrack (doesn't exist any more) (*me loves the austrian f1-track)

Quote from Vain :There are no leagues that currently run the BF1. Public racing is seldomly exciting, so I usually skip that unless I'm training for a league race in a public server.

Vain

There are some leagues who run at least a few races with it.
I see you're from germany, so take a look at this:

Quote from speedfreak227 :Read this, this, and this please.

I think it's ridiculousillepall
why should red bull have ANY say in things when they've been there for 2 years now? McLaren IS F1 in my mind. Not redbull! and BMW?!?!?!?!? how short of a time have they been around?

Yeah, but I think McLaren will come in too. Because RedBull wants the austrian team license, so they would be no longer an english team Then McLaren comes again in there ...
But anyway, it's a stupid system.

Quote from Eldanor :I surely would.

Look at this Flight Simulator Shop

http://www.fspilotshop.com/ind ... 20&page=1&sort=3d

60$ for a 747 mod, and I know there are more expensive ones. We are used to free mods in the racing sim community, free stuff is great, but I think a quality work deserves some money

BTW, is that idea possible?, I mean, would the devs be interested in something like that? Maybe we are missing a great opportunity!!

I wrote an e-mail to victor So let's wait and drink some coffee
and btw ... I would also pay 36 euros for the track

Quote from buedi :Sounds like a good Idea. Before you start collecting anything I think there should be a OK from Scavier. Maybe they don´t want to have to do anything with the Nordschleife and then all that work would have been for nothing.

Of course, and they should collect the money of course! Not anyone of the community.
But we should start a poll, WHO would pay for it.
It just tried it, but I don't really know how to make it in this forum o.O

Quote from SabersKunk :I'd chew my own arm off to have the nordschleife in LFS.

Maybe we should start a poll to see, who would pay 18€ for the track ...

Maybe the Nordschleife in LfS isn't unreachable. A guy from the german lfs-community had an idea for collecting money to buy the license. The Devs make a new account and everyone who wants the Nordschleife, pays 18€ to this account. If there comes enaugh money together, they go and buy the license. And then they handle it like an add-on: everyone who wants the nordschleife, has to pay 18€. The guys who have already paid not of course
And if their is not enaugh money, these guys will get the s3 license from the pre-paid money.
