Sounds like you might need to re-install and let the installation process figure out the ports automatically, maybe? I have no idea if this will fix it, so sorry if it turns out to be a wild goose chase...

Well... okay... err, congratulations?

The chicane features in the Historic and North REV versions of the circuit too

Way too many arcade gamers on that site, obviously... :/

Quote from The_ScrubLord :

that's Norschleife and if they add it, it will be a problem for slow PCs, i think.
uh, and about track ideas, i think infineon raceway fit well:

I did a double-take at that - "Infineon? That looks like Sonoma..."

Haha - I am derp <_>

But, yes. +1! The downhill Carousel is one of my all-time favourite corners

Nevertheless, NoName, if you do make a skin and would like to share it with the community (ie, a public skin - not private), then please do so in the finished skins section under the thread specific to your car.

If it's actually good, you may be pleasantly surprised by a license holder who is prepared to host it for you. It does happen from time to time, but the trick is to have no presumptions or expectations. Good luck!

Welcome

Everybody's getting all nostalgic for some reason...

Have a look at this thread from Scawen on running Runtime 0.8 with 6P - grab the zip from the first thread and read post #8 for advanced setup options

but you really want 6Q for the mirrors - you can look at other sims and say "oh yeah, your porsche could probably beat my XRT... but my car has real mirrors n|m ;p m|n

There is no official support for mods - you need to contact the creator of the mod directly.

Sad to see you go Rocky - all the best for the future!

great vid btw

That's the very definition of 'honest to a fault'.

I used to have this exact same problem, but in another driving sim.

I found that restarting my computer before I started playing would prevent this from happening, but I don't even need to do this anymore.

Not sure what changed, but it seemed to fix itself somehow. Sorry if that's not much help...

Porsche has been in the habit of exclusively licensing their cars to single developers, which is why it's been more common to see RUF in games up to this point. I'm only speculating here, but maybe the Turbo S is still under license to some other company...

I had to make a video, when all I actually wanted was a gif...



Survived that debacle, only to get taken out on the next lap, but oh well...

2.7 years isn't long enough for hacker scum.

Ahh China - the land of having absolutely no rights to anything you create.

At least they left 'online racing simulator' in the logo - free advertising

You're on the wrong website - this is the NEED for Speed official website.

For the real racing experience, go play Marco Polo on a motorway.

To be fair though - if you need help hooking LFS up to an 80's arcade cabinet steering and pedals, kturner is your man!

Posting skins for non-demo cars is fine, as the CMX viewer doesn't require a license to view S1-3 cars, and the templates are available for all to use.
It's only the posting of screenshots of the skins from in-game that would get you into trouble. Screenshots from the CMX viewer would be fine though.

It's almost like you could see the future

Maybe, although I can't say I have any practical experience of it - as Bobloblaw said, most LFS setups use 70-80% because it makes the car easier to turn into corners. It's quite possible that the SAT seems higher because of it...

Quote from softslider :

BTW can you please explain more details on you last comment mentioning parallel steer as I'm no expert at car settings yet.

Here's a bit I did for a thread from earlier this year: The problem that the Ackermann angle (or parallel steer) solves is that when the wheels are 100% parallel, the inside wheel is dragged sideways rather than rolling in the direction of the turn. This means the tyre is actually resisting the car's efforts to turn into the corner by providing friction in the opposite direction to the turn. (In other words, the inside wheel travels around a smaller circle than the outside wheel, and needs to be turned a few more degrees than the outside wheel to follow the tighter arc.)

Increasing the angle (ie, lowering the value) points the inside wheel into the direction of the turn and decreases this friction. Overloading the angle will increase the sensitivity of your steering, making it easier to turn in as it is now dragging the tyre into the corner, but may cause the car to oversteer if the weight comes forward onto the front tyres suddenly. Likewise, slightly underloading the angle can be used to correct cars that have a tendency to suddenly oversteer at high speeds.

Something to keep in mind: Either way you choose to adjust the angle, anything off the neutral angle will cause greater friction on the tyre when cornering, causing it to heat up and degrade quicker.

Who was that at 1:41? Not used to seeing such unsportsmanlike behaviour in City Liga racing...
