That is correct. 1mm wear is all they allow.

Isn't it 1cm (10mm) ?

I'll probably take out the FO8 and FOX out for a spin at city sprint2, to check the physics improvements as well. Then i'm off to try it online.

Quote from Vykos69 :

The real cars in LFS are exact counterparts of their real world brothers (RaceAbout, MRT). So if there is a BMW-Sauber in LFS, then it will be an as real as possible BMW-Sauber as the real one. Including all the needed data etc. Is that so difficult to see?

Well to be honest vykos, but how would we suppose to know that?

Not an editor as such. I'd rather like to see the feature of swappable car parts between each classes (GTR, TBO...) like suspension, rear spoilers and engines. No i don't mean that you could put a FO8 engine in the UF1, this swaps should stay within the same class. Or maybe even tweaking some parts, so you will go on a server that will limit your LX6 to 170bhp or maybe make your FZR wingless. Could be usefull for the leagues.
Another thing is modifying current tracks we have in LFS. You could make your own layout by opening or closing some corners, thus creating a whole new layout. Like Aston GP that turns right after T1 (on the AS National part) instead going left on the eau rouge chickane. And so on...

Quote from XCNuse :

er.. i try to never engine brake, because it spins the rear wheels and then you screw yourself (ei: test it out with the FOX)

i dont see many 'high' brake biases.. most around low 60's to mide 70's

Well, most setups i've seen are using mid 66 to 69 (fox). Not so sure about low brake power, i normaly use 590nm to 630 max, but lot of other players use 650 and above. If i use the same i lockup. Must be my driving style

Well, since we opened a "guess the track" question, i'd like to ask witch track is this?

Wow, 5? I only heard about 3 and i have a feeling the 3rd one is acctualy a guy

Quote from Speed Soro :

The april surprise will be:

1 - Engine and brake heating.

2 - Rainny and night races.

3 - Dynamic illumination with daylight transition.

4 - Loose parts and breakable glasses in damage model.

5 - New cockpits with dx9 texturization.

6 - Bugs and birds that smashes in the windshield.

7 - New superb sounds, with multiple effects and surround capability.

8 - New tracks.

9 - New cars.

10 - More players in the same section.

11 - New AI behavior.

12 - New interface with new menu sounds.

13 - Open tracks code for mod.

14 - Nothing more than a single fool's day

This is realy sad news
Good luck to all the team members in the future! I'll miss your skins in my rear mirror heh, cheers

Somebody phone the NSPCC.

I was joking, geez

Anyways, congrats scawen.

A child is much like a lfs bug. It's annoying, you don't know how you got it and it allways keeps you awake at night. But when you whack it, it makes you happy.

Erm, congrats scawen

It's only a game, get a life guys. Arguing about car skins...sheesh!

Scawen is probably very busy with the physics so i doubt we'll see any major gfx updates, such as the use of dx9.

I'm interested, thanks for PM.
And i mean it this time

You have some serious issues people. The guy simply asked for help and you immediately start flaming him and bring up the whole "he's using a cracked game topic". What on earth is wrong with you? Who cares if he's using a cracked game? I don't and neither should you. I wonder how many of you guys use licensed software (starting with windows)?

I'll be around 21 by the time S3 is out.

Ah i see, so you're 15 at the moment?

It would be realistic to expect S2 in 2007, imho.

It's a very good sim, the only thing that's bothering me is the (very, very, very) slow development process. Either work faster or find some more programmers

Thanks for your help Cue-Ball, i've found what the problem was. I was lying about minimum sleep, i never changed it in the old cfg file. Then i realisied it's set to 1 in the default cfg file and i had it set to 5 in my old cfg. That was the problem that resulted in 13fps difference.
I have no idea what this setting does except slowing down the gfx when u set it up higher than "1". Thanks again for your help!

Like i said i tried various settings with the old cfg file and i allways got lower FPS! No matter if i've set LOD to 0 or 100, bias mip to -2 or 0, min sleep to 1 or 5, etc...nothing worked!
Then when i used the default s2 cfg file, then it worked ok! So i have no idea what's going on realy.

Hi folks.
It's like this i've often benchmarked lfs with the same singleplayer replay using fraps. Got to around 86fps average. Seems ok to me. Then some time passed and i started playing lfs again and i altered some minor gfx setting ingame. Then i ran the benchmark spr again and i got down to average of 74fps! I didn't know what's causing the difference so i tried 3 different gfx drivers, tried altering all possible gfx settings and i ended up with the same result, 74fps average. Then i've installed s2 to anotehr partition and overwrote the cfg file. Since then i get avg. 88fps, just like i should. In the graphics menu there's basicly no difference and i have no idea what's causing this massive fps difference!

www.skynet.si/cfg.zip

Here i saved the 2 cgf.txt files. The one named cfg.txt.bak is the old one with gives me 74fps and cfg.txt wich gives me 88fps average. Try both and tell me if you get such fps difference, becouse i realy have no idea what's going on!

Take a look:

I'm interested in participating in this league. Would just like to know where can i singup?
