Quote from Wenom :

Why Scawen doesn't add LX8 to lfs?? Why is it so hard. Isn't it pretty much "point and click" stuff?? It did not feel that bad in that leaked warez-LFS version back in the day.

And the tyre physics has been updated since then, now it has much more grip, making LX8 even easier to control

Quote from Scawen :

Audio :

More accurate horn (and flash) with shorter transmission delay

I think this is more related to muliplayer than audio...

Quote from Amynue :

Video showing Vive's passthrough camera in action:

I'm impressed!

But I'm afraid it just looks impressive seeing someone else's video wearing it...


Oculus Rift for example, I saw people on youtube wearing it and complementing nonstop, I thought it would be something from another world, something incredible...

So I went and tested the DK2 from one friend, thank god I tested before buying...

I tried it on LFS and AC, and I just couldn't feel anything close to those people on youtube, specially because I was able to count each pixel...

After that the only conclusion I came was that those people were acting, and now I just can't believe on any of this "VR magic" when someone is having uber fun wearing it...

Quote from ACCAkut :

It is, but after ~7 years of "staying the same" it was just time for me to move on. Maybe I move back again, but for now I see no reason. I won't buy a new licence for stuff I basically already had for years too.

When I discussed this with a friend lately we actually found comparison to a human relationship in it.

LFS is like the girlfriend you got in grammar school. Best fit for you, does what you like, adorable in every way. You commit to it.
Then the years go by, you yourself change a lot, grow up/older, learn new stuff, jobs, people, places - and your girlfriend does not. Yes, some jewellery here and there (CTRA, Leagues), few new clothes from time to time (patches and graphics updates), but apart from that she is exactly the way she was the moment you met her. Waits for you at the same table in the pub whenever you come for a visit. Is always happy to see you, no matter how long ago the last visit was.

You come back home telling stories about all the new things you did and got to know, and she ...is the same. Can't tell stories of her own, has no new experiences, dwells in memories of your first few years. You still like her, but with a lot of pity and desire for her to change after all.

This comparism breaks apart when it comes to "cheating" on LFS with other sims ( ), but I hope you catch my drift. I think the same happens with long TV shows. Most shows last under 7 seasons/years, and those that do mostly turn bad after that. Others that steadily develope can go much longer (looking at you Simpsons and Doctor Who).

My god, that was the BEST comparison I've seen

Quote from k_badam :

This is a very nice rumour as I have always been a fan of the Forza series but I have never bothered to spend money on a console in recent years.

I'm also a big fan, I spent many hours on the original forza on the first xbox

Later one friend donated to me one 360 with broken optical reader, I just had to spend with the RGH and was able to play forza 4 from the HDD, spent even more hours than the original forza


The idea of being able to play it with wheel and online is just too good to be true



(inb4 the haters: I know the physics isn't at LFS/Assetto's level, but it's acceptable and really fun)

"According to Chinese website WPDang, Forza Motorsport 6, the Xbox One exclusive racing game released last year in all regions, and the yet to be officially unveiled Forza Horizon 3 will be released on the Windows Store in the future. The release of these games on the Windows Store is, according to an anonymous source, one of the steps Microsoft will take to make the Windows Store the main distribution channel for PC games. Since all of this has yet to be confirmed officially, we must take it with a grain of salt until an official announcement comes. At the same time, WPDang has proven to be quite reliable with Microsoft and Windows rumor, so there’s a decent chance that these games will indeed be coming to PC in the future."

I thought it was awfully easy to drive for an formula...

I opened the game and my wheel was set to 900 degrees, and I could go fast and ever do some slides no problem...

With 360 degrees as the virtual wheel, it was possible to do some chain drifts

Quote from PeterN :

The dynamic reflections are independent of the builtin postprocessor. LFS' postprocessor is purely a colour curve adjustment.

Unless there's another PostProcess.psh that is way more advanced floating around, that is...

You're right! Don't know why I thought it was needed to have post processing ON to enable dynamic reflections...

Ok, so no need for LFS's post processing at least for me

Quote from PeterN :

As ENB series is already a postprocessor, is there any need to enable LFS's builtin, pretty rudimentary, postprocess filter?

There's some stuff enb's post processing can't do, like dynamic reflections, that you can use with LFS's post processor

Quote from Nilex :

It's that then

There's no workaround to make 3rd party .dll work with post processing?

I can't test right now if the results are different scawen, but I indeed have d3d9.dll on LFS folder because I use enbseries

Windows 10 64bits

Hi, I'm getting the "Could not create the render target texture" message when I try to turn the post-processing shader ON

What can I do to fix it?

Quote from Lynce :

Thanks, guys.
I'm uploading all the pics I was made in my flickr account.
Next is to work on the site to upload all RP's and current work.

Holy balls, I can't imagine how much the game would improve graphically if the devs accepted your great work...


And not just the game, the marketing would be just epic

Sorry for bumping, but I still have performance issues on LFS...


I'm able to play GTA V with 50~70fps at 720p on the gt840m, but on LFS that get 60fps on any potato-PC, can't keep 60fps here...

By starting LFS using the right click, I can choose what GPU it'll use, so I startd two instances, one with the HD4400 (onboard) and one with GT840m, this is the result:


https://hostr.co/file/GcxjGoVNMngc/LFS.png


Believe it or not, the left instance (with 88fps) is the HD4400

The right one is the GT840m, with 50fps...

Quote from Klouczech :

I had a great time during two sprint races at Automotodrom Brno.

It's an amateur racing but It's a lot of fun!

And yes, I need racing brakes :-/

Nice video! Great driving!

Quote from Crashgate3 :

Any input lag? Every Codemasters game I've ever played since Colin McRae 2 has had hellish input lag rendering it unplayable.

One thing I noticed on these games, was that it hadn't input lag, it had driver animation lag...

For example, if I drive on the hood camera, I have no problem at all, but on the cockpit camera, seeing the animation of the driver with massive lag, my brain goes dãããr and I can't drive properly...

Dirt 3 with 900 degrees on hood camera: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uDQjKkNvknw

Great track! loved the map also!

Buuuut, it could use more signals, I tried doing a lap with hardtrack XRG, and it took 19mins 57seconds because I didn't saw some turns (almost 10 turns)

Quote from ATC Quicksilver :

I attempted to make a funny video using the editor.

LOL what button do you press do dive like that?

Quote from delis :

Finally downloaded the game and I'm surprised it actually works on my machine which is an Acer laptop with i3-3110M 2.4 GHz processor, NVIDIA GeForce 730M 2GB graphics card and 6 GB of RAM... I'm not the graphics geek on games so it only runs on Medium settings with 30 FPS, but that's enough for me to enjoy the game

Doesn't you game stutter?

It runs fine on my desktop (i7 2600k, 8gb ram, gtx 560ti)

But on my laptop, even with very high FPS, it stutters a lot sometimes...

My laptop specs are:
i7 4510u 2.6ghz
8gb ram 1600mhz
nvidia 840m 2gb


I was running with some options on medium, other on high, and even some on very high... the FPS was playable, but the stutter was a terrible issue

So I tried everything on minimum + editing the settings.xml for even lower graphics, but it had absolutely no difference on the stuttering...

I only played the GTA Online mode, didn't tested if the stutter happens on the offline mode...

do you use half vsync to get the 30fps? I'm thinking on trying the half vsync to see if it fix the stuttering...


I'm starting to think the stuttering is happening because of the 5400rpm HD drive, since it's a massive game and it has to read stuff from the HD a lot during gameplay

These are the original settings (that I got 35~45fps)

I changed the AA ingame to "Level 4" and tried same track, same AI, and got 21~27fps

35~45fps with the graphics options that came with the demo, with ~15 AI cars on track, I just started the demo, choose 1080p and RACE...

The GPU usage on nVidia inspector is 100%

I'm gonna try to return the laptop (not just because of this odd performance, but other problems on the build, like defective spacebar, bad mounted touchpad, etc)


I didn't tried older drivers yet, maybe later today I'm gonna try newer (beta) drivers...


It's really weird how other games and benchmarks use the maximum performance from the laptop, and the LFS doesn't try to get higher FPS...


viraaj, I have vertical sync OFF, and now I also turned FPS limiter OFF (was set to limit at 100fps)



I'm downloading rF2 demo now to test it, is it really dx9?
