hi guys

i'm sorry i missed the train, but.. What exact changes the GTR class had? how much slower or faster are they now?
I'm particularly interested in the FXR GTR compared to the others now and then.


thanks in advance

well you guys send an E-mail to correct the guy. Along with your credentials so he bothers to read it.

i just hope you are not putting him down because he is working in games other than lfs.
If forza2 works as he said, then is a big thing to all of us. It's getting mainstream.
We are sim-racers, not lfs-racers, right?

they are killing aliens...... bugs

i guess the church would prefer to see a game made about the beautiful things they did during the inquisition time.

hypocrites, all they want is money.

To better explain my self.... we are a niche group, and we are growing up, right?

let us hit a certain size and the big guys (the ones with the millions) will hit the scene really hard. Like always happens.

5 years down the road I find more likely this scenario to happen than to have a competitive final S3.
Thats why i think Scavier should capitalize now. Although i think online distribution is the way to go (steam just broke 13million active users)

i think it should be put in stores NOW as an online game only.

it wont have this appeal or be technically the best for ever.
By the time S3 comes out, who knows what else is on the market by then, and how better.

Lfs is still only made by 3 guys and all we have today took 4 or 5 years.
For the big companies, 5 years is enough to produce 3 generations of games, and we are still in ALPHA.

What i am trying to say, you guys surelly noticed the heavy competition lfs got, starting from the last two years.
In the next 3 years, big names will be making way on what LFS helped to create in its best days.
Those best days were 2005 and 2006.

Today, in 2007 big companies are hiring BIG physicists to build tyre models and suspencion models for a console game (forza2).http://channel9.msdn.com/showpost.aspx?postid=314874
Its how serious its getting. Lfs should see the light of day before the big guys take over.

toe heel and dont hit the brakes so hard.
But since you are running with the mouse, and that is on or off, just accell before switching each gear down and drop brake force % a bit

changing tyre size, weight ratio or early toque curve will alter the behavior "personality" of the cars.
As i consider this the one thing to never change from any car we already know how to drive, i highly recommend to change things not linearly.


- limit how high a engine revs due to, say, increased engine resistance or aerodynamic resistance, but leave the early torque/hp curve intact. Not linearly.
I would try to save how the current cars enter, turn, and leave the corners, and change only the facts that dont alter this.


- Easy way out would be to limit the setup capability of x or y car. Putting limits on how much the rolling bar adjusts or how much soft the suspension can get. making the car less hotlappable

i believe this quote.

i suffer that from time to time. in STCC round7 i almost kissed the leader ass because he was using the same line as i was. You can see it in the broadcast.
Repetition gets my mind numb

its a different reality over the console world. Its a simulation compared to the rest they have/had. But like any other little kids, what they have "is" better than the neighbour's.

some though, play Pc games (GT legends, GPL, GTR) and claim Forza is "up" there with them...

I guess we have to play it to know for sure

i would say make sure you have separate throttle and brake option activated on the g25 options. then go to the lfs FF/axis menu e see if the little yellow bars move when you press the pedals....
