is there any way to improve the resolution on the central mirror ? same resolution as lateral mirrors would be great really..

Quote from Takumi_lfs :you have to Thank ACCAkut because he uploaded a setup for you and used his spare/free time for nothing.

He deserves atleast a thank from you.

agree 100%

ok , so i was close to the real thing then with my own "guessed" setting which are 720° + 30 lock, it was a feeling matter.. i imagine the other cars should have around the same steering lock that's 30, am i right ?
Steering ratio & Steering Lock

hi everyone ,

i been wondering what would be the best combination to acheive the most realistic way to handle the steering..

i'll take the XRT as the main example : these are my current setup

* 720° steer ratio and 30 steering lock and 0 steer compensation

do you think it's how a the car would be set in RL or at least what would be the default values for the car IRL ?

i suppose that 0 steer compensation is totally linear, how about the steer ratio ? does 720° reflect reality ? or should i set my wheel at 900° with a different steering lock value maybe?

u may've got it , im trying to be as close as the reality when it comes to handling the steering, cos fast counter steering doesnt really bother me..

thx for your comments and opinions,

new tracks would be really a good addition...

Quote from Mille Sabords :And also consider the rear tyres used in this set are Hybrid - that is even further from RL and weird but may justify the higher camber values for deflection.
Unfortunately this strange set works much better, when I first used this kind of set I immediatly knocked 1 sec off my laptimes in BL compared to the "realistic" set I created after long trials.

you got it and you said it : "that's strange but working".. so it gotta be something wrong about those values, tires or whatever is related..

all what im trying to say is : the camber value is too high for a GTi, in real life you never have those huge cambers for such a car... in LFS you need to have too much camber to reach the optimum tire temps..

Quote from Woz :Aussie V8s are a prime example of this. It almost looks like the suspension has failed for these cars as they run very high camber settings

yeah sure about the V8 series , but im talkin about a simple GTi which supposed to be just slightly modified if you see what i mean.. i think you shouldnt comparing the 2 cars cos they're way too different IMO..i still think the camber is way too high for such a car, even if it's meant for the track use..

Quote from axus :Hehe, live camber is even more extreme than the camber adjust value. From what Todd's told me, LFS' camber simulation isn't exactly top notch. I'll ask him to take a look here when he can but I don't know how much he'd be willing to share.

cool , hopefully we'll have some clarifications, cos honestly those cambers really surprised me and the funny thing is that the car seems to handle pretty well with those values and tires heat doesnt seem to be unbalanced even if it should.. i'll post the setting itself so you can take a closer look at it and test it..

Crazy Camber Values ?

hey ,

just noticed that many setups (not mines) have a huge camber values, especially for the GTi.. take a look at the screenshot (it's a setting i got from someone online, and he was always on the pole position by the way )

anyway , i'd like to know what u think about those kinda huge cambers, is it that way in real life ? would you set your camber that way if u had a Gti (meant for racing of course) in real life ? i mean settings are supposed to be as close as reality goes , dont they ?

Dual & Quad Cores Support

hi people

was just wondering if there's any chance that LFS supports multi CPU management in the future ? should the whole game be totally reprogramed ? or only some modification would be needed to make it compatible with multi CPU's ?

the point is , LFS will be more realistic with some more calculations i guess , maybe it would push even further the physics in term of realism..am i totally wrong here ?

voted yes cos i totally agree with the poster , LFS is getting quite boring for me now since i first started playing it, and god knows it's been a long time !!! so yes for some new tracks, and if i only had to pick one, it'd be "THE RING" .. so, LFS definatly needs something NEW !

Quote from tristancliffe :No, it's a nickname for Imprezas.

I take great pleasure in confusing the brainless oafs that drive them when they tell me, proudly, they own a Scooby. I ask which one? They think for a few minutes, and tell me some silly code that means something if you are a geek. I then ask what model of Subaru. They tell me a Scooby. I re-state that we know he has a Subaru, but which one, then I'll list a few Subaru models to choose from, with Impreza last. Eventually he gives up, and starts thinking about pickles.

Teasing stupid people (4WD owners) is most amusing!

LOL great one !
