Even with the Celeron, I'd have to say the on-board graphics is what's killing your FPS more than anything.

You can't mow enough lawns to afford a $60 AGP card or something? There has to be a better solution.

Seems like there's only a certain amount of skid that can be left on a circuit. A good way to check this is to take an RB4 or anything that spins easily and do cookies for a bit. Make sure you don't do them all in one spot. After the same amount of time on each try, the skids start to dissapear (starting at oldest, working towards newest skids).

In this regard, I'd love to have skid marks last a lot longer than they currently do. +1

The red means the suspension travel has reached it's limit.

ZOMG, I don't know if I should agree with you until I read the 8974235 other posts on the subject :chairs:

That's not "lag", for starters.

Try adjusting your LOD settings in your Graphics options.
Make sure no web browsers or IM programs are running in the background.
Turn off your AntiVirus while racing.
Defrag lately?
How much RAM do you have... better yet, how about some system stats so I can just stop guessing at what could be the issue?

Doesn't happen to me. You might want to go to a Dr.

For you people posting +1s... how hard is it to grasp that the MAJORITY of players just don't care? The reasons were clearly stated above...

In the end, someone would just find the max speed for every car, and that doesn't really have any good use to all of us other than a statistic. In S1, the AU1 lot was able to be hopped out and you could drive for several miles in empty space to try and get to top speed. Wasn't anything special after a few minutes, and that is about it. And with a top speed setup from testing, there is nothing we'd be able to apply it to. It doesn't help for gear ratios either, since gear ratios are specific to each track. Doesn't help with aero or anything else as well.

What more do you want? You want the LFS devs to cater to the minority? Sorry, but that simply will not happen, especially with the current goals for LFS. Racing sim, arcade game, doesn't matter. A top speed rating MEANS NOTHING AT ALL to anyone who cares about circuit racing, as you will never reach top speeds. Oh, unless of course you have real world tracks, but that's it's own bag of worms. Please, don't start about custom tracks unless you've used the F*****g search function. Thanks...

its just a little french I know

How tall is he? Is it serious?? When is the engagement??!?!

You need to push Shift+U while in the right tracks to be able to load a layout file.

Hope that works for ya.

Yeah, okijuhans, that was pretty useless... You win the useless post of the week award. Gratz.

clix813, use the search function to find proper Momo Race settings, or better yet, check the link at the top of this page for the LFS Manual. Inside it is a great wealth of info on how to configure your Momo. IIRC, this has something to do with too much FFB in the control panel.

I don't normally like animated, but 8/10 for effort

Try Virtual Dub. It's OpenSource software, so it's free. Might take a minute to get used to, but if you've used software to compress videos before, it shouldn't be much of a task. You can find it at this link: http://www.virtualdub.org/

Pretty cool.

One suggestion, since each video is only 2min~40sec long, you could manage to use more compression on the video/audio. Even with AVI, the file sizes shouldn't really be much more than 20mb each at that time length. Even then, that's a generous amount of space. I only suggest this so more people will be willing to download your videos in the future

Not sure if you could mount the camera inside the car by chance. The wind on the microphone really distorts the other sounds that could of come through. Again, just trying to be positive with the criticism. Keep 'em comming

The original got locked.

iluv2sk8, it's ok to have a thread locked and not follow it with another thread apologizing about the first thread. The best apology in this case is to learn from your mistakes and why the original thread got locked, and try not to repeat them

I've found the best reason for giving a corner a name of any sorts is when you're on TeamSpeak or Vent with people in the same race on a public server, you can warn them about an accident at a corner with a quick name. Other than that, names are just novelty, IMO.

Truth be told, when it comes to the actual programming it's only one developer, who does pretty damn well imho :thumbsup3

:bowdown: Scawen

Please post the model numbers of your video cars so those who might have an answer to this can better assist you. Thanks

I'm not sure you appreciate the time that went into those 'small updates'. There are, after all, only 3 developers. Sure it helps when they can have the community test the patches, but only so much.

The point I'm getting at is, you have a good while to wait before the next 'official' update. I hope you have the ability to be patient, because you'll need it.

The raw materials you'd need, the time invested and all things considered, you'd be better off just buying your friend a Logitech Driving Force Pro (DFP) wheel for $80 with some of that $500 you had left over from your G25

Congratz! I hope it makes the game all the more fun for you

Absolutely no one is going to help you if you keep up with this style of posting. I personally ignored when you made 2 separate threads asking what wheel you should buy (or have parents buy for you, it would seem...?). Now you are spamming your own thread asking about something that has NOTHING to do with racing in a sim.

No offense buddy, but you're headed down the wrong road here. Now would be a good time to turn it around...
