@GianniC: this portraits all the members of this forum or at least 90 percent I think

I do too.
But sometimes I think "damn, what could be better in LfS"... I do really not find anything which could be improved. It's simply a great game, and it will always be one.

EDIT: Yay! 45 pages, 1322 posts - is any thread on this forum bigger??

so no extra mirrors needed?
I thought only the full version of lfs is available via this mirror page... the Q-Patch for LFS S2 alpha is only avaliable from the Additional Downloads section @ LFS.net. Of course, OCRANA and other download mirrors also host the Q-Patch, but no link on LFS.net is saying so , and I asked for this fact if I can provide an extra mirror.

or can I subscribe in any way to this mirror-page?

specter, this was the idea of the day.

no, I do not want to have the patch earlier... I planned to download it from LFS.net as soon as it is out and then upload it to my homepage.

It was a serious question - I think LFS.net will be "a bit" overloaded when the patch is out.

Hi there,

at first I want to ask if it's allowed to provide an extra download-mirror for the april update patch. If it's allowed, I will post the URL of my homepage here... If not, ignore this thread

LOL @ Vain...

I think the devs would not give out the patch one second earlier than they want even if you point a gun right at their heads... because they know: If you kill them, you'll never ever get this patch

I don't think motobikes would fit LfS that much... I mean, it's a different genre of RaceSims...

hehe... here in germany easter monday is a holiday :P

... maby only in some parts of the country, dunno

Are we sure these lampposts really are lampposts? They look more like trackside commentary loudspeakers. If they are, then of course as has already been mentioned, they are just additional trackside furniture to heighten the sensation of speed......maybe?

yes, they are lampposts. floodlight posts to be more precise.

EDIT: found a two-head floodlight post on google images . this one is, unlike those from AS North, portable, but it shows clearly that those are floodlight posts.
Click me!

I for myself look forward to very great nightraces. And whats most enjoyable about this new nightracing mode is that there is a 24h-race of the german community on the end of april... I really hope that they included a day-night-cycle with adjustable cycle times so it follows the day-night cycle here in germany... 24 hours, half of that in a night race :woohoo:

lampposts + announced surprise in patch = Nightrace?

wooohoo!
:woohoo: :bounce8::laola:

@MadCatX: yes, tyres are deformating during race, but the pre-defined sidewall-textures should also deformate, shouldn't they? I don't think that the sidewall-deformations of these pre-designed things have been rendered before... so it shouldn't be too much work to deformate the skinned sidewalls instead of the pre-defined... IMHO.

Hi There,

As I read from the April update page on lfs.net yesterday, there will be a huge improvement in what tyres react like ingame. Will these new calculations be a significant additional load for the CPU (asking this because I don't have the very best CPU... P4 1.4GHz)?

The second question is about the new tyre sidewalls. You offer 4 default designs for them with well known tyre brands. Will the sidewalls also be skinnable in this or any later version?

Thanx for answering in advance,
Stalker
