Very very nice video



but i would have cut the scene with BF1 at south city T1, the camera movements are too much fast here.

Quote from R34GTR :

Don't mean to interupt or anything, but I don't see why people think they can order someone which side to overtake them on...

Yeah, especially for races of 8/10 laps, not 500...

However, like sinbad said, if they say that to you before the race, you can agree or simply change server. It's their server

Quote from Becky Rose :

Blackwood was a hard track to cover, the cars didn't really spread out and the track is long which means the whole field is only covered by 1 or 2 cameras, making it very difficult to follow the action in terms of filming and editing. Also the frequent passing moves on the straight made commentary an impossible job. The production standards compared with round 5, really not that much changed. It was just a harder story to tell the viewer.

But you changed for example the fov of onboard cameras.
If you see onboard on round 6 and 5, 5 ones use much more realistic fov angle. And round 5 seemed a bit more fluid on fps side too.

And toghether with that, the elicopter sound effect and the "people on trackside sound effect" added realism

Ok, there are lot of more things that can be considered more important of this, but i really would like to see .xxx measurements on split and lap times implemented.

P.S: i just forget to say that some of the most fun and exciting races that i have done in lfs were in servers with very low number of people with 1 or more wr holders on it, and none of us crashed on others at T1. On the opposite, all raced very clean, so really i dont see your point on this argument.

I agree with the fact that pause should invalidate the single lap that it is running in the moment the game has been paused, but absolutely disagree about the uselessness of hotlaps.

Imho are very usefull, i have pratically learned the racing tecniques watching hotlaps, and LFS is the only simulator that allowed me to improve in that way.

In other communities, like GTR2 or rfactor ones, all replays and setups are kept like secrets, and it's really hard to improve without having some visual example.

Another usefull things hotlaps do is saying you a very good time to which refers for knowing how much are you going fast.

Knowing WR time in a certain track allow you to understand if you are running around the track only sufficiently well (within 1,5 sec from wr), good (within 1 sec) or very good (within 0.5 sec).

Imho obviously

Or if you meant to appear here in the top right corner, just ask Victor

Ok, probably is this

Quote from XCNuse :

as you can see in my signature, i just got into STCC a few days ago, and i'm absolutely loving it more than CLC, but i am curious becky, will you ever implement GTR cars for the higher ranking license holders?

not necesarily the FZGTR, FXR, and XRR, but rather the XFR and UFR


or am i just going out of my mind?

Pratically i started with STCC the same period u started, just some days after (because of 4 months of stops caused by broken PC ) and i would like to see other classes too
Im still gold (5 days needed for getting it ) but i hope to have soon the time for completing platinum license.



Just a bit O.T: the best stcc tv coverage was round 5 one. Round 6 was a bit worst then 5; Becky, try to keep on round 5 quality standards, it was a stellar video

For about 2/3 weeks there is finally a new site for the Italian LFS Championship ( www.cilfs.org ), and we would like to add a banner to that LFS community like the ones that are on the upper right side of the forum.

How to add a banner there?

Where is Fusion.Alex?
Is lot of time that i dont see him online

Nice render, however i dont think that all the people that use 3ds max have spent money for it...

It's an interesting idea but i hope that you will use "elasticized" type of shirts.
I have seen lot of times shirts from games and seemed quite all a bit too much nerdy because stayed too wide on people wearing these.

It have to be cool if you want them to be used, imho.


P.S: i know that you now are making plain simple shirts, but imho shirt that would be very nice should be based (and designed on the entire surface) from some of these nice LFS race screenshots edited on photoshop like the one in the forum section, the ones that capture better the idea of speed

+1

If all will learn Italian you will no more have that problem...

Quote from -M- :

I'm sure
That race was from September 25th and he posted the link first in our forum

Ok, maybe i have had some luck and during a search for lfs videos i saw that before the "official" release

However im sure that i have watched it on october

Are you sure that this video is yours?

I have already seen it on youtube 3 weeks ago!

I know (and other games like GTR or rfactor show that thing too) that on racing cars, dampers can be modified with different settings for fast and slow bumps and rebounds, and with packers too.

These things seems missing onto lfs.
Why don't add them?

A banger race is a race where people can wreck eachother without violating rules?

It have to be a possibility of doing that, not an obligation on doing only that.
Said in that way people can't say no

Quote from Turbo Dad :

/w pb to see you Personal Best time on that track in that car

Yes, and it already says you the track acronim

However +1

However is strange the fact that he did a roll on himself.

He touched the curb and that made the car starting the roll or is possible on regular tarmac to during a 180 slide to do something like that?

Quote from tristancliffe :

Not 'hands down' the best, no.

We don't have day/night cycles. YET
We don't have brake temperature modelling. YET
We don't have a decent aero simulation for all eventualities. YET
We don't have the best damage system (overall). YET
We don't have the best transmission/clutch simulation. YET
We don't have the most immersive sound (I don't use CSR). YET
We don't have the best interiors. YET

Apart from the long list of stuff we DO have over other sims, the most appealing bit is the repeating YETs. It's an ongoing thing (a WIP), and that's what REALLY appeals to me. Rfactor might get a patch of 'fixes' every 6 months. GTR has no support whatsoever. nK's patches are next to useless (although they have a similar list of stuff to do, starting with 'Make it Work in the first place').

No, LFS isn't hands down the best sim. But it is the best overall, and is going to get better.

You couldn't explain it better

Never suffered of that

Quote from boosterfire :

I don't think LFS will ever have NASCAR style vehicule. I mean... we all agree that what is in the game is there only because developpers mean it to be there, and I don't think Scawen wants LFS to get into nascar. After all, we're talking about a game where most of the cars are not real.

And anyway, there are tons of functions still to implent to make a respectable nascar race. Without rolling start, don't even think about it. Just stay with nascar games.

Why do you think that Scawen doesn't want nascar?
Where he said that?

And yes, almost cars are not real, but are ispirated by real cars, and because nascar cars are real one, an ispirated car to these is a realistic possibility

Nazo drifting?
What's that exactly?
